The 2023 AAPD Fall Internship Program Application is now open. The application is due Thursday June 8, 2023 at 11:59pm ET.
Our Internship Program places students and recent graduates with disabilities in paid internships. Interns build leadership skills, explore career opportunities, and connect with the disability community. 
The 2023 AAPD Fall Internship Program will be fully virtual. We will select eight interns. They will complete remote internships at pre-selected placement sites. Interns will work part-time for 15 to 20 hours a week. They will be paid $18/hr. The program will be 10 weeks long. It will run from October 2 to December 8, 2023. 
During the fall, interns will:
  • Attend a virtual orientation on Saturday, September 30, 2023
  • Take an advocacy class every 2 weeks
  • Connect with a virtual mentor 
  • Join virtual community events throughout the fall
  • Gather for an in-person event November 3-6, 2023
