Job Description

The Lehigh Valley Justice Institute at United Way GLV is a nonpartisan research, policy, and advocacy program working to develop and promote a reimagined justice system that is equitable and fair for all communities. LVJI employs a data-driven approach focused on the criminal justice processes within the Lehigh Valley area of Pennsylvania. We believe that solutions borne in the Lehigh Valley, due to the region’s unique and diverse political, economic, and demographic climates, are portable in nature and can thus be applied to communities throughout the United States.
At LVJI, we understand you are a student and are still learning. We believe internships are opportunities to learn how to apply what you’ve learned in the classroom to real-world scenarios. We are committed to providing an internship experience that grows your skills, introduces you to the professional workforce, and bolsters your career in a nurturing environment. If you want to work on a real project, start your professional journey, and make some real change, we’d love to hear from you!
