Veracity Media is a progressive digital strategy and political consulting firm based in Washington D.C. We're ramping up for Congressional campaigns, Statewide races, as well as down-ballot races all across the country, and are looking for interns to play an active role.
Built by a team with a social-impact vision, Veracity helps clients get their message out and engage their communities more directly and cost-effectively than they ever could before. We believe in making the strategies and tools behind the most successful professional online campaigns of the day accessible to all of our clients, and our partners and team bring a rare mix of experience in the areas of grassroots political campaigns, government and organizational administration, website development, messaging and online strategy to the projects we work on.
We're looking for several politically and technically savvy interns who are interested in digital media, communications, political advocacy and online organizing. At Veracity, you'll gain first hand experience consulting for U.S. House and Senate campaigns as well as smaller, local races, plus non-profit advocacy organizations of all kinds.
