The Feminist Majority internship is one of the top 100 internships in the country, according to the Princeton Review's America's Top 100 Internships.

The Feminist Majority and Feminist Majority Foundation seek highly motivated college, graduate, and professional school students who aspire to become leaders in the feminist movement to serve as interns in our Washington, DC and Los Angeles offices. In our internship program, interns are afforded a unique opportunity to combine research and action while working at the national level for women's rights.

Feminist Majority and Feminist Majority Foundation internships provide students with a behind-the-scenes look at the women's movement. Each internship includes a wide variety of responsibilities, such as monitoring press conferences and congressional hea rings, researching, writing, policy analysis, organizing events and demonstrations. Recent project areas have included:

A number of our interns have received grants or financial aid from their schools to participate in our internship program. Before deciding you cannot afford the internship, please contact your school's financial aid office to see if they can offer any assistance.

Spearheaded by Eleanor Smeal, former president of the National Organization for Women (NOW), the Feminist Majority and the Feminist Majority Foundation are non-profit research and advocacy organizations dedicated to promoting equality for women.

The Feminist Majority leads action campaigns to inspire women to take power in all sectors of society. Feminist Majority organizers also track legislative issues of concern to women, and speak out to the government on behalf of women's rights.

The Feminist Majority Foundation, a feminist think tank, develops creative long-term strategies and permanent solutions for the pervasive social, political, and economic obstacles facing women. Through educational and research projects, the Foundation seeks to transform the public debate on issues of importance to women's lives.
