STUDENT OPPORTUNITY
The American Association for People with Disabilities (AAPD) is accepting applications for a 2008 Summer Internship Program. For the seventh year in a row, the Mitsubishi Electric America Foundation (MEAF) and the AAPD are offering a Congressional Internship Program for undergraduate students with disabilities. The MEAF-AAPD Congressional Internship Program provides an opportunity for students with disabilities to work on Capitol Hill for eight weeks (or in some cases with a Federal agency) and acquire valuable work experience that will enrich their academic studies. As Congressional interns, participants gain insight into the operations of Congressional offices, learn how public policy is developed, and gain an understanding of constituents' roles in the legislative and political processes. The internship program, administered by AAPD, was created in 2002 through a major grant from MEAF. Applications must be received by 5:00p.m. (Eastern Time) on Friday, December 14, 2007.
