Internship

We love interns and are always looking for enthusiastic, intelligent, creative people who love democracy and civic engagement. Our paid internship program is for adults ages 18+ that are curious about advocacy, politics, and generally “how democracy works.” We offer two sessions per year in the Spring and Fall. These typically follow a college semester schedule, but you do not need to be a college student to apply. 

Through hands-on projects, mentorship, and professional development, Team LFT interns gain valuable insight into public policy, community organizing, voter engagement, advocacy, and nonprofit leadership. Our belief is that democracy is and should be FUN, so we incorporate a lot of creative ideas into our outreach opportunities.

Interns will work collaboratively with professionals and each other to develop skills in communication, research, project management, volunteer recruitment and management, and community activism. Interns will have one-on-one time with civic engagement leaders and elected officials from Oklahoma.

If you love democracy and fun - join us!

“I interned at Let’s Fix This during my sophomore year at The George Washington University in DC. Being in the heart of American politics gave me incredible exposure to the day-to-day realities of the legislative process. At the same time, I felt a strong pull toward local politics—the politics of my home—and a belief that, with grit, hard work, and integrity, there is a bright future for Oklahoma and its institutions.

That is exactly what Let’s Fix This embodies. The organization not only advocates for our state but also invests in and elevates the next generation of leaders and changemakers. I will always carry the values of Let’s Fix This with me in my work: a commitment to building a thriving, representative democracy in Oklahoma and beyond.”

My internship with Let’s Fix This gave me the amazing opportunity to learn alongside fellow enthusiastic, policy-minded people. The knowledge I gained from this experience has been instrumental throughout my career, enabling me to make meaningful contributions across the nonprofit, public, and private sectors.

If you are passionate about policy and your community, I definitely recommend interning with Let’s Fix This!
