Internship Program

Together, we can forever change how mental health is valued and prioritized in society.

Further your career while helping fuel a movement

The Active Minds Internship Program is an opportunity for undergraduate and graduate students, as well as recent graduates, to contribute to Active Minds’ mission while developing valuable professional skills.

As a growing nonprofit organization, Active Minds relies on our interns tremendously as they work directly on important initiatives and projects, as well as assist staff with a variety of administrative tasks. Interns have the opportunity to do substantive work, gain experience in the nonprofit sector, and help change the culture around mental health.

Active Minds offers internships in the Fall (September–December), Spring (January–April), and Summer (June–July). Intern positions vary depending on the needs of the organization and are posted at the start of each application cycle. Applicants are welcome to apply to all positions they wish to be considered for.

We expect interns to work 20 hours a week, set a consistent work schedule between 9:00am–5:00pm ET, and commit to staying on for the entire program. Active Minds pays interns $18 per hour.

The application cycle for the Spring 2027 Internship Program closed on November 4th, 2026. Applicants selected for an interview will be contacted November through December. We value the time that applicants put into completing their application, but due to the high volume of applications we receive, we are unable to provide responses to phone calls or emails regarding application status.
