Intern at ACC
The African Community Center is always on the lookout for new energy and support for our work and community. Interns play a key role in helping us further our mission to help refugees rebuild safe, sustainable lives in Denver through supportive networks of people, services, and community activities. Each intern brings a unique perspective and new ideas to our community, contributing their past experience, ambition and passion.
During an intern’s time with us, they will:
Grow as individuals, personally and professionally
Become stronger advocates for the community we are a part of and the individuals with whom we work
Build greater connections and exchanges between individuals
Gain new perspectives and skills through their time spent in a diverse community setting
Unfortunately, we are unable to provide compensation for interns due to funding restrictions. All internships with ACC are unpaid at this time.

Intern Testimonial
“I worked in the Resettlement Department. My role was very important because I got to smile a lot and provided the first experience for community members, experienced new cultures, stories, and worked with a team of highly passionate staff and volunteers.”
