All internships are unpaid, volunteer-based positions created to provide meaningful, hands-on experience in a nonprofit community setting.
AHCP is currently a mobile program, offering services at community events, partner locations, and pop-up sites across Brownsville and surrounding areas. Interns will gain real experience working directly with families in diverse community environments. Interns must have access to their own laptop for certain tasks.
A minimum commitment of one semester is requested to ensure consistency and a strong learning experience.
Interns may choose from several tracks based on their interests, including Community Outreach & Engagement, Family Navigation, Education & Workshop Support, Community Closet, and Social Media & Communications. Tasks may include supporting events, assisting families with intake or resources, helping run classes or workshops, organizing donations, or creating outreach material.
Expectations:
• Maintain regular communication and follow assigned tasks responsibly
• Uphold confidentiality and professional conduct when working with families
• Be dependable, punctual, and able to work independently when needed
• Participate in community events, workshops, and pop-up service days (some evenings/weekends may occur)
• Complete training provided by AHCP and represent the organization respectfully
• Commit to at least one semester (approximately 10–12 weeks)
Flexible scheduling is available based on student availability, academic needs, and event schedules. AHCP welcomes students from all fields who are passionate about helping families, strengthening communities, and gaining valuable nonprofit experience.
