Community-Centered Advocacy Internship

The Litigation & Advocacy Partnerships team works with Earthjustice departments and programs to assess current partnership priorities and goals regarding strategic advocacy, project, and case development. Our team is focused on helping staff strengthen Earthjustice’s institutional capacity, resources, and skills for building authentic, lasting relationships with community-based organizations and other partners. To that end, we work to provide opportunities for staff to build their own knowledge and skills around cultural sensitivity, community lawyering, grassroots communication, and environmental justice principles; take the time necessary to cultivate and maintain their own relationships; and access institutional support and resources to effectively engage and work well with their community partners.
