Volunteer / Intern

The work of our fellows, volunteers, and interns is integral to PPG. For years, students and community members have been invaluable participants in our work. If you’d like to be one of them, please contact us.

Each summer, PPG hosts a paid internship program for students interested in policy advocacy and action-based research. Applications for the summer 2025 intern program are now OPEN.

  • We also sponsor an Open Buffalo Public Research Fellow to research and community engagement around Open Buffalo's campaigns.
  • Each summer, PPG collaborates with Cornell University on the High Road Fellowships.
  • During the school year, PPG hosts masters-level interns from the University at Buffalo School of Social Work.
