This is a paid internship opportunity that begins on June 22, 2026 and runs through late summer (August or September depending on academic schedule). Interns work 15–20 hours per week onsite in the historic Frank Lloyd Wright–designed Civic Center and are placed within a specific division of the Office of the County Executive or Board of Supervisors offices based on interest and experience. This is a single internship application that allows candidates to indicate interest in one or more placements.
This internship is structured as a cohort model. Interns will participate together in learning sessions, site visits across County departments and local cities in Marin, and coordinated trips to Sacramento and San Francisco to gain exposure to state, regional, and intergovernmental work. Interns will work the same schedule – approximately 10:00 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., Monday through Thursday – allowing them to collaborate as a group while contributing meaningfully within their assigned divisions.
This program is ideal for students interested in local government, public policy, budgeting, sustainability, communications, or community engagement. Because this work is rooted in serving Marin’s residents and communities, we strongly encourage applicants with a connection to Marin County and an interest in building a career in public service.
