Policy Intern

May - July 2017 • Washington, DC

What I liked

The work was both substantial and meaningful. MALDEF certainly placed a fair degree of trust in me, which led to significant responsibility. As a result, I gained a wealth of experience in policy analysis, lobbying, and civil rights work.
