Our policy department advocates for an improved response to sexual violence, including through the criminal justice, legal, healthcare and social services systems, in order to ensure survivors receive the justice and care they deserve. We monitor policies, legislation and regulations which impact victims of sexual violence. In addition, we work with Congress and state legislatures to promote laws dedicated to helping survivors of sexual assault. The Policy Intern can be a full or part time position, with the standard number of hours set between 20-40 hours per week.

This internship will focus on federal and state legislative advocacy. In addition, the intern will assist RAINN's Policy Team in their general work with Congressional and state legislative offices.
