Full Description
We seek interns through out the year to help defend and extend the rights of conscietious objectors, advise men and women in today's military about their rights, and help others find an alternative. Interns get hands on, concrete tasks to do to help the world understand that conscientious objectors come in a braod spectrum that includes War Tax Resisters to members of the military who object to THIS war.
Everyone in the office gets a chance to make a difference by writing, advising and analysing issues. Everyone in the office also gets to clean the office, take our trash and seal envelopes.
Although the Center is not currently in the position to provide pay, we will work with you to obtain school credit and will pay local transportation costs.
