The 47th Assembly District Office Internship Program offers high school and college students a unique opportunity to participate in and experience the work of a state assembly office. The program exposes students to district office operations and the grassroots activities of a legislator’s work. These experiences include working with constituents, conducting community outreach efforts, assisting community-based organizations, organizing civic events and projects and other activities.

Internships are available to all part-time or full-time college students. Depending on their programs, students may also receive different types of school credits for participating as an intern.

Assemblymember Bass placed a high priority on student participation during her four decades as a community organizer. The Internship Program will facilitate active student involvement in government. Many legislators and senior policy staff began their careers by interning in a district office. It is an invaluable way to gain a true understanding of California’s democratic process, as well as an excellent opportunity to make important contacts while serving the community.

In addition to the valuable education and work experience, interns can also look forward to a letter of recommendation upon satisfactorily completing provided assignments and fully participating in all agreed -upon hours of work. All internship work is voluntary and students will not receive any monetary compensation.

If you are interested in participating in the 47th Assembly District Office Internship Program, request an application form from the 47th Assembly District Office at (323) 937-4747 or by email at assemblymember.bass@asm.gov.

As space becomes available, qualified candidates will be invited for an interview. Thank you for your interest in this very unique opportunity to serve your community, and I look forward to your participation.
