KIP is not your typical internship program. It’s paid. It’s nationwide. It’s offered in the spring, summer, and fall. KIP is for those who want to be introduced to the world of non-profit careers—either in Washington, DC, or across the nation—through hands-on experience in fields such as:
- Communications and public relations.
- Development and fundraising.
- Graphic design and video production.
- Operations and technology.
- Policy and research analysis.
- External Relations and coalition building.
- Program management.
- Human resources.
KFP is a suite of three separate programs that all provide a focused educational experience geared toward furthering participants’ knowledge, skills, and professional network within a specific field (communications or policy).
- KFP: Communications helps participants become well-rounded communications professionals in the field on topics such as digital communications strategy, data visualization, branding, op-ed writing, digital media platforms, marketing, and advertising.
- KFP: Policy is a good program for individuals interested in careers in non-profit policy, academia, or law.
