We are still seeking applicants for the Civil Rights/Case IntakeInternship. Applications are being accepted on a rolling basis. Applications are evaluated as they are received and qualified candidates are then contacted; there is no particular deadline. All applicants are evaluated strictly on the basis of merit, but Muslims are strongly encouraged to apply.
