Online Media and Digital Organizing Spring 2026 Internship: Act on Mass

The Online Media and Digital Organizing Intern will assist with Act on Mass’ transition to a new Wordpress website, updating website content, and contributing content to our social media accounts. This will primarily consist of content related to our weekly newsletter, the Saturday Scoop, which contains our breakdown & analysis of what's happening on Beacon Hill, and how to take action. Additional independent policy research may be appropriate. 

In addition, the Intern  will have opportunities to focus on specific areas of interest or expertise such as press, internal communications, newsletter, and digital fundraising. The position is part time, 10 - 15 hours per week, and spans the length of the academic semester. The Intern’s weekly schedule is flexible, and will include 2 to 3 weekly project-based planning meetings. This position is fully virtual. Interns will be compensated with a stipend of $1,000.
