The pursuit of a brighter future requires organizations that understand the importance of long-term thinking. The Mackinac Center for Public Policy exemplifies this mindset.
Since its inception in the late 1990s, the Mackinac Center’s internship program has played a vital role in connecting young minds with the principles of liberty. Each summer, a group of college students joins the Center. They come from diverse backgrounds and share a common passion for advancing the ideals of liberty and limited government.
The intern program supports the Center’s work by providing help for various projects. Through hands-on experiences, interns work with experienced professionals to address real-world policy challenges.
The program also has long-term benefits in nurturing a new generation of scholars, analysts and advocates. By doing so, it ensures that the Center’s principles will have advocates for decades to come.
Expanding the talent pool brings substantial advantages not only to the Mackinac Center but also to free-market organizations at large. Numerous think tank and policy advocacy groups proudly count former Mackinac Center interns in their ranks.
Our internship program demonstrates the value of investing in young talent. We appreciate the support of our dedicated contributors as they help us cultivate aspiring leaders and shape the future of economic freedom.
