Students interested in internships should submit their resume, a writing sample and a letter of reference by regular mail. Following review of these materials, ACTION OHIO will schedule an interview if the strengths of the candidate match priority internship projects. The interview is an opportunity for the student to learn about ACTION OHIO and for ACTION OHIO to meet and get to know the potential intern. Interns are asked to sign an

the student’s and ACTION OHIO’s needs. ACTION OHIO will assist the intern in
developing a project with goals and objectives and supervise her/his
progress. Upon successful completion of the project, ACTION OHIO will supply
