The California State Assembly District Office Internship Program offers high school and college students a unique opportunity to participate in and experience the work of a state Assembly office. The program exposes students to district office operations and the activities of a legislator’s work. These experiences include working with constituents, conducting community outreach efforts, assisting community-based organizations, organizing civic events and projects, database development and upkeep, staffing the office, and other activities.
Internships are available to all part-time or full-time students 16 years of age or older. Depending on their high school or college programs, students may also receive different types of school credits for participating as an intern.
Many legislators and senior policy staff began their careers by interning in a district office. It is an invaluable way to gain a true understanding of California’s democratic process, as well as an excellent opportunity to make important contacts while serving the community.
Interns will gain valuable education and work experience by fully participating in agreed-upon hours of work. All internship work is voluntary and students will not receive any monetary compensation.
If you are interested in participating in the California State Assembly District Office Internship Program, simply complete the online application below. We are currently accepting intern applicants in the Corona District Office location ONLY.
As space becomes available, qualified candidates will be invited for an interview. Thank you for your interest in this very unique opportunity to serve your community. I look forward to your participation. If you have any questions, please call (951) 371-6860.
Sincerely,
SABRINA CERVANTES
Assemblymember, 58th District
