The Virginia Down Syndrome Association (VDSA) is seeking an intern to help with our Marketing, Communications, and overall outreach efforts. The mission of VDSA is to benefit the lives of individuals with Down syndrome and their families through individual and family support, education, community awareness, and advocacy. 

We have various program and event outreach initiatives as well as actively planning our 18^th Step UP for Down Syndrome event, which our largest event and fundraiser of the year. Other than event experience with Step UP, there are opportunities to help with our social media, website, newsletters, PR, research, working with our programs, and more. This is an exciting opportunity to make a positive impact on a 41-year-old organization that is undergoing new leadership and renewed strategic initiatives.

This is an unpaid internship that is normally eligible for course credit, 3 credit hours and 150 hours with the internship. Our office is located in Henrico County (23229) but a majority of the activity would be remote.  Please send a resume and email to mbaum@virginiadsa.org.
