In May of 2012 we launched the SYOC program, Secure Your Own Community, an effort to work with everyday people to fight back on deportations. To date we've been in contact with just over 80 cases of those in deportation.
Now we need your help, we are looking for our first round of SYOC interns to help provide support on this project. Work will include such things as:
- Virtual phone-banks (phone tree!);
- Helping build an online community around the cases; and
- Some additional support.
As an intern you are expected to be able to dedicate at least 5 hours a week to SYOC work. No additional experience is needed, just a willingness to learn and work hard without constant supervision.
If you want to give being an intern a shot then fill out this form and we'll get in touch with you. Our first SYOC intern training will take place this Sunday evening, from 6pm to 7pm, EST.
