The Collegiate Leadership Internship Program (CLIP) is a 10 week paid summer internship experience in New York City that seeks to foster and develop professional and lay leadership in the Jewish community. Housed at the Bronfman Center for Jewish Student Life at NYU, CLIP matches undergraduate students who have an interest in Jewish life and culture with engaging, substantive internships at a vari
ety of for-profit, non-profit, and Jewish communal organizations, where they are provided with mentorship and guided development of new skills. In addition to spending four days a week engaged in a professional work environment, interns gather together once a week for meaningful, peer-driven educational seminars, networking with some of the city’s best and brightest leaders. Seminars cover topics such as identity and community building, leadership training, and professional development. CLIP interns participate in a peer-organized Shabbaton (weekend retreat), an afternoon of volunteer work, and a site visit to an agency in a professional field of interest. Interns also organize weekly social activities, where they can engage with one another in a casual environment outside of work. CLIP recognizes its partners: UJA-Federation of NY, FEGS, Genesis Philanthropy Group, Jewish Communal Fund, Jewish Foundation for Education of Women, and the Bronfman Center for Jewish Student Life at NYU
