City Tech now leads the Mayor’s Office Public Engagement hub (PEU) for the CUNY Career Launch Initiative. We are specifically interested in recruiting students from all CUNY colleges who are interested in work related to social justice, government, and community outreach. Only students who apply to PEU internships (described as “grassroots organizing” in the application) can earn up to $3400 for the summer.
PEU internships, open to all majors, give students like you a chance to improve New York City’s future one person a time. To create healthy, caring, and resilient communities, students will conduct proactive in-person outreach to vulnerable New Yorkers in the community and connect them to important government benefits and neighborhood resources.
While making a difference in the lives of fellow New Yorkers, students like you also gain real-world experience and expand your transferable job skills such as leadership, communication, and confidence. While increasing your knowledge of social issues, PEU internships can help add valuable experience to your resume and expand your professional network as well. We provide professional training and support to help you have a meaningful, paid summer internship!
Attached is a flyer. Here is the link to the website. The application and full list of eligibility requirements are here. Again, the extended deadline is February 28, 2023.
We look forward to hearing from you soon!
Sincerely,
