Well, it's here!  December is upon us and you only have a short while to get
your applications in for AAPD's Summer Internship Programs!  Applications
for both the 2008 Congressional or Internet/Technology Internship positions
must be received by AAPD before 5:00PM (EST), Friday, December 14, 2007.

These PAID internships in our nation's capital are incredible opportunities
for college students with disabilities to further their educations and
careers with invaluable experience and contacts in politics, law,
technology, and employment in D.C.  Those selected for this prestigious
honor will receive complementary round-trip airfare to Washington, D.C.;
free, accessible housing in the heart of Georgetown; and a living stipend to
cover other expenses while enjoying what will surely be a life-changing
experience.  Additionally, a summer full of exploration, networking,
socializing, and other fun opportunities is planned for all interns. 

Congressional Interns will be placed in a Senate or Congressional office,
according to their interests in a particular area of law and policy or
geographic preference. I/T Interns will be placed in technology-level
positions in either a federal or federally-related office. Successful
completion of these internships can provide mentors, longer-term
internships, and even long-term employment in Washington, D.C., or in other
related careers around the country.

Applicants must be college or university students with disabilities,
enrolled in an associate's or bachelor's degree program, when they begin the
internship program. For the Congressional Internship, students must be
either sophomores or juniors, with at least one semester to complete after
the internship. For the IT Internship, students must have completed at least
one semester of college credits at the time of the application. Applicants
must be U.S. citizens who are 18 years or older.

Current college students, with any type of disability, are invited to apply
for these Internships. Online
