More Than an Internship. It’s Where Your Work Reaches Young People.
National Voices for Equality, Education, and Enlightenment (NVEEE) is a South Florida–based national nonprofit that works to prevent bullying, violence, and suicide through education, mentorship, and community engagement. Since 2009, NVEEE has reached more than 45,000 youth, families, and educators through year-round leadership programs, summer leadership summits on university campuses, youth wellness initiatives, community events, and service projects.
We are a small national team, and college interns are part of how that work gets done. Interns do not shadow staff or sort paperwork. They take on real assignments across the organization, work directly with the Executive Director, and see their work used by students, families, schools, partners, and sponsors.

Strategy, public relations, corporate outreach, social media, design, writing, and the NVEEE website

Whatever your major or career plans, you will leave with what employers look for: clear communication, accountability, and finished work you can point to.
What You’re Up Against
The job market is demanding for new graduates, and employers are direct about what they find missing. These figures are not a judgment of you. They describe the standard you will be measured against.

How This Internship Prepares You
Every gap employers describe is something you practice here, every week.
Motivation and initiative
You own projects with real deadlines and report your progress to your committee each week.
Professionalism
You use professional email, attend weekly meetings on time, and may represent NVEEE to partners, sponsors, and companies.
Communication
You write for real audiences, contact schools, partners, and sponsors, and present your work in committee and All-Team meetings.
Time management
You set your own schedule and are accountable for every deadline in Asana.
Responsible use of technology
You learn to use AI and digital tools well, and to check their work before anything goes out.
Scholarships and grants
If you need funding for school, we can show you how to find and apply for scholarships and grants.
Real-world experience
Your work is used in live programs and campaigns, and you leave with finished work to show employers.
Experience that matches your major
Depending on your field and interests, you could:
Education
Help develop workshops and learning tools for students in NVEEE’s youth programs.
Marketing, public relations, or graphic design
Plan campaigns, build corporate relationships, and create published content and designs.
Business, nonprofit management, or public policy
Research funders and partners, support sponsorship proposals, and improve how the organization operates.
Psychology, social work, or public health
Gather trusted wellness resources and analyze program survey results.
Computer science, information systems, or data science
Build automations, test AI tools responsibly, and maintain the NVEEE website and data systems.
Communications, journalism, or English
Write and edit stories, newsletters, web copy, and press materials for real readers.
You do not need to plan a nonprofit career or have a background in youth development. These skills transfer to any field.
Is This Internship the Right Fit?
NVEEE is a small team, and every intern’s work is used in real programs. This internship is a strong fit if you:
Want to strengthen your communication skills by writing, presenting, and working with people outside your field
Can manage your own time and meet deadlines without daily reminders
Work well independently and as part of a committee
Will treat the internship as a professional commitment from your first day
If you are looking for interview practice, or for any internship to list on your résumé, this program may not be the right fit at this time. We encourage you to apply when you are ready to commit.
Before you apply, do your research. Read about our programs, our founder, and our impact, not only the mission statement. You will be asked what you know about NVEEE.
Your interview includes a live skills exercise
Every interview includes a 10–15 minute exercise completed live on Zoom with your screen shared, such as designing a graphic, analyzing a short data set, or drafting an outreach email for your committee. Employers increasingly assess skills this way. Google, Cisco, and McKinsey have brought back live, in-person interview rounds to confirm candidates’ fundamental skills (Axios, 2025), and research has long found that work samples are among the better predictors of job performance (Schmidt & Hunter, 1998). From your application to your final evaluation, this internship holds you to the standards you will meet in your career. See what to expect.
