Reports To: Director, Business Operations
FLSA Status: Intern - Unpaid
Location: East Hartford, Connecticut (Hybrid)
Position Summary:
The Event Planner Intern will learn key aspects of event coordination and execution in the non-profit sector, in alignment with their program of study. The events that the intern will work on will advance the organization's mission, brand, and engagement goals.
Event Planning & Execution- The intern will have an opportunity to learn about and engage in key aspects of successful event planning and day-of event logistics. The intern will be involved with the following responsibilities:
  • Supporting a wide range of events, including conferences, galas, fundraisers, community outreach events, trainings, webinars, and staff events.
  • Assisting with event timelines, run-of-show schedules, task lists, and providing administrative support for a variety of event-related tasks.
  • On-site coordination, including setup, registration, and staff/volunteer direction.

Evaluation & Reporting - The intern will understand the importance of data collection and how it can be utilized to drive future events. The intern will be involved with the following responsibilities:
  • Collecting and compiling attendee feedback and event data so the event team can evaluate success and areas for improvement.
  • Preparing post-event reports summarizing outcomes, lessons learned, and recommendations.

At The Governor's Prevention Partnership, students have hands-on work experience in:
  • Program Development
  • Evaluation
  • Research
  • Event Planning
  • Policy Analysis
  • Development
  • Design

The opportunities available in each department of The Governor's Prevention Partnership provide real-work assignments in a fast-paced non-profit organization and are designed to supplement a student's academic learning.
How flexible are internships?
No two internships are the same and no experience is without the ability to adapt and change as the intern or advisor sees fit. Interns are asked to participate in the design of their workload and work one on one with program advisors to see that the needs of both parties are being met.
What type of support and supervision do interns receive?
Program supervisors are qualified staff members with expertise in mentoring and prevention, particularly with youth.
What type of student is the organization looking for?
Each year, The Governor's Prevention Partnership looks to fill a number of positions designed to accommodate a wide variety of interest and majors. Above all, we are looking for students who:
  • Are enthusiastic and self-motivated;
  • Have sound organizational skills;
  • Can meet deadlines;
  • Have strong oral and written skills; and
  • Has computer literacy.

What type of commitment is expected?
Students are typically expected to devote an average of 12-15 hours weekly. We are happy to accommodate interns whose schools require them to do a larger number of hours. Participants may alternatively work to satisfy work-study course requirements, or they may simply volunteer.
Is there a stipend?
Internship opportunities may carry a stipend, depending on specific program funding. This is not guaranteed.
