Internships The GLBTA Resource Center now has listings for volunteer and internship opportunities in the DC, Maryland and Virginia areas. This list is by no means exhaustive, and is updated as and when we get information on ongoing work opportunities. We list this information as a service to students and organizations. We generally know no more about these internships/volunteer opportunities than what is posted. We try to remove old positions, but you should check with the organization to see whether or not a position is filled before applying. We often leave old internship opportunities on the page because many organizations are continually hiring. For updated information you should check with the organization. If you know about internship/volunteer opportunities that are not listed here or if you are interested in volunteering or working at the GLBTA Resource Center, please contact Connor Krone. Good luck with your internship hunt!
