The Youth for Matt Bevin Internship Program is a select internship experience designed to give high-quality high school and college students the opportunity to see the inner workings of a campaign and contribute to growing and improving the State of Kentucky.

Matt Bevin understands that the best ways to recruit Kentucky's best and brightest into public service is to get them immersed in the daily operation of a statewide campaign and give them the responsibility and opportunity to make a difference.

The program will provide opportunities in each of the organized campaign departments (Communications, Strategic Grassroots Organization, Administration, Tech Support and Fundraising). The objective is for interns to be directly involved with the upper-level workings of the campaign apparatus. Students will be exposed to the real decision-making processes and engaged in projects that utilize their skills, abilities, and enthusiasm.
