How to support the CMLP

We cannot accept monetary donations to the Citizen Media Law Project at this time. We are in need, however, of help from individuals with a legal or journalism background. We offer paid and unpaid internships, as well as volunteer opportunities. Lawyers, journalists, and law students of all levels are especially encouraged to apply, including students enrolled in non-US schools.

Applicants should have a demonstrated interest in and enthusiasm for journalism, citizen media or technology-related legal issues, along with excellent research and writing skills and the initiative and energy to see projects to completion in a fast-moving environment.
