Guidelines may vary depending on the specific internship. Please be aware that internships are not available in every area each semester as programs vary on an as-needed basis.

Paid Internships

For Summer 2022, JYF was able to offer five exciting internship positions that allowed students to learn and earn while exploring the evolving workplace in engaging and meaningful ways.

A grant-funded, summer internship provided one student with the opportunity to experience a professional working environment and interact with state-of-the-art processes including 3D printing, videography, image software and animation. Watch as he discusses his experience and the skills and knowledge he gained.

Volunteer internships for the purpose of gaining experience and exposure to different career paths will continue to be offered based on projects, programming and availability. For more information, please send inquiries to: ovs.volunteer@jyf.virginia.gov.
