We’re happy you are here. If you are looking to be part of a vibrant, inspiring, mission-driven organization full of thinkers and doers, then read on. If you aspire to apply your research, program, outreach, and documentation skills to a transformational organization, apply for this internship.

Refugees International is seeking a 2026 Summer Intern to focus on the U.S. immigration policy, community documentation, and storytelling. The intern will support RI’s work to document the experiences of immigrant communities, advocates, service providers, and others affected by federal immigration enforcement. This work may include supporting community-centered research, resource and partner mapping, outreach and engagement, meeting and event coordination, and literature review on ethical documentation, community archives, oral histories, and best practices for preserving stories and evidence related to immigration enforcement and resistance.

When you join us, you will be an integral contributor to a non-governmental organization that advocates for lifesaving assistance, human rights, and protection for refugees and other displaced people. Our work focuses on documenting the impacts of federal immigration policies, elevating the experiences of people seeking protection, and supporting advocacy that advances access to safety, dignity, and due process.

Refugees International seeks great people from a wide variety of backgrounds, and we specifically encourage members of refugee, immigrant, asylum-seeking, or other displaced communities to join us.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Supporting RI’s documentation and research related to federal immigration actions, and their impacts on immigrant communities and the organizations that serve and support them;
In collaboration with community partners, completing a resource and community mapping of organizations, advocates, service providers, grassroots groups, impacted communities, and other stakeholders connected to immigration response work;
Providing administrative support for active work streams, including tracking tasks, organizing materials, maintaining shared documents, supporting follow-up, and helping coordinate ongoing project needs;
Supporting outreach and engagement efforts designed to expand participation by volunteers, community partners, advocates, and people with relevant lived or professional experience;
Assisting with event and meeting organization, including scheduling, preparing agendas and materials, coordinating logistics, taking detailed notes, and summarizing key discussions and action items;
Conducting a literature review on ethical storytelling, oral history methods, trauma-informed documentation, and data stewardship;
Helping identify best practices for creating safe and community-centered spaces to preserve stories, data, written accounts, and other materials related to immigration policy and protection challenges;
Drafting short memos, summaries, background materials, outreach language, and other written products as needed;

QUALIFICATIONS/EXPECTATIONS

Be enrolled as an undergraduate or graduate student, or have graduated within the past year;
Be seeking the internship as part of an educational experience related to the program in which you are enrolled;
Have a strong interest in the U.S. immigration policy, refugee protection, community documentation, storytelling, human rights, and humanitarian affairs;
Have familiarity with immigration enforcement, community-based advocacy, or archival/storytelling work;
Have strong research, writing, organizational, communication, and administrative skills;
Be interested in ethical documentation practices, including oral histories, digital evidence, written accounts, quantitative data, and community-centered approaches to preserving lived experience;
Be based within the United States;
Lived experience is welcomed but not required;
Work at least 250 hours, as guided by RI staff or partners;

COMPENSATION
$5,000 stipend
