SALDEF’s annual Washington DC SikhLEAD Internship Program is proud to introduce our new interns! This year we have placed 10 university students in the federal government and nonprofit positions. This year interns will pioneer the new digital landscape of remote internships.
These internships provide students with skills that are essential for becoming community leaders that can foster social change.. From Senators to Representatives or federal agencies to nonprofits— the offices that the SikhLEAD interns will be working in will give Sikh American youth the opportunity to learn and gain hands-on experience, while the offices themselves get to engage, interact, and learn about the Sikh religion.
