Job Description

About the Active Minds Internship Program
Active Minds is the nation’s leading nonprofit organization changing the culture around mental health. Through our presence at more than 1,000 high school and college campuses, in corporate settings, and with a wide-reaching public audience, Active Minds is creating communities of support and saving lives. Founded in 2003 by Alison Malmon after the tragic suicide of her brother Brian, Active Minds is dedicated to supporting a new generation in ending the silence, helping to make mental health as highly valued as physical health. Through our many programs – including the emotionally gripping Send Silence Packing® traveling exhibit and our compelling Active Minds Speakers – we are changing culture and behaviors related to mental health across the country. 

Our internships are geared towards current college students and recent college graduates.  As a small nonprofit, Active Minds relies on the help of our interns tremendously as they work directly on important initiatives and projects as well as assist staff on a variety of administrative tasks. Interns have the opportunity to do substantive work, gain experience in the nonprofit sector, and help change the culture around mental health. 

All Fall 2025 internships will be remote with an anticipated start date of September 15th, 2025 and end date of December 5th, 2025. We expect interns to work a minimum of 20 hours a week, set a consistent work schedule between 9:00am and 5:00pm EST Monday - Friday, and commit to staying on board for the entire semester. 

Active Minds pays interns a stipend of $1,250 per month. 

Marketing and Digital Media Internship
As part of the Marketing and Communications team, interns will learn how messaging and media can support a nonprofit’s mission.  Marketing and Digital Media interns get an up-close look at how Active Minds' robust marketing/communications programs, including digital media, blogs, earned media, partnerships, and more impact and grow the important work of our network of 800 campuses, workplaces, and communities with Active Minds programs, all across the country.

Interns with the Marketing and Communications team will strengthen their video/digital media production, strategy development, project management, and overall creative skills as they help develop content and campaigns that motivate people to get involved with Active Minds and in mental health advocacy.  Some projects that interns contribute to include: collaborating on and creating video/digital media content to be shared across multiple platforms (including Active Minds social media, YouTube channel, and more), relationship marketing initiatives (ex. tabling strategy for public-facing events), and working alongside the Marketing Manager to serve as marketing/communications liaison with various programs and departments across the Active Minds organization. Marketing and Digital Media interns will have a direct impact on the success of marketing/communications content and plans that support the entire organization. 

Marketing and Digital Media interns are important members of the team who support all types of projects – big and small – to continue to move our mission forward.

Qualifications :

  • Interest in mental health and uplifting young adult voices
  • Strong long- and short-form video editing, storytelling, and communications skills
