Citizen Security Intern

January 2017 - March 2017 Washington, DC
“The organization staff was welcoming and cared for all interns. I got to have lunch with professional staff and learned about their life journeys and careers. I also got to attend government briefings with international leaders like the attorney general of Guatemala! On top of all the great experience, all interns received a 1000 dollar stipend. ”
