closely with the young women in the Sadie Nash Leadership Project (SNLP) and
must actively support our mission.
Deans will have a chance to teach, lead, and plan different aspects of
the program. This will be excellent experience for women interested in
social justice, adolescent development, education, feminist youth
organizations, non-profit development, and leadership among other things. This
position offers a unique and exciting learning experience, which will be fun,
dynamic, and challenging.
We want the Sadie Nash Leadership Project to be a chance for you to
excel, to push yourself, and to be supported.

Each Dean will receive $2,000 for the ten weeks of the internship.
