New England Climate Summer
In this internship students bike around different regions of New England working within communities on matters relating to the climate crisis. Interns will learn community organizing skills from climate movement leaders as well as the nuts and bolts for a successful summer. The Climate Summer organizing model emphasizes building relationships with diverse constituencies, training for leadership development, campaign structure and developing public narratives that motivate for action. The training will also include basics like working with media, running effective team meetings and of course, basic bike maintenance.
This internship has been recommended by a current SRC student who joined this organization last summer. Interested students should email (emclaughlin@simons-rock.edu) or bring their resume to Quincy McLaughlin in the Win Commons.
