Inside Government: A Students Chance to Experience the Legislative Process. Now Seeking Student Interns for Spring & Summer 2013.  Apply Today!

 As a County Legislator and parent, Catherine Borgia knows how important it is for young people to learn about state and local government and their influence on our daily lives. Students can greatly benefit from an applied setting where they learn by doing and are able to gain and apply critical thinking, writing and public speaking skills.

 Legislator Borgia’s office is very pleased to invite students throughout communities in Westchester County to apply for an internship position during the school year and for the summer 2013 season. Interning at the Board of Legislators gives students an opportunity to gain an understanding of the legislative process, see firsthand how government works, familiarize themselves with working in an office setting, and hone their research skills.

Borgia’s office was very fortunate to have four young students intern this past summer, from the Briarcliff, Ossining and Croton Harmon school districts. The students were all able to learn from one another and from my staff and co-workers. The experience was mutually rewarding and fun.

For more information, or for an interview please feel free to contact the office.
