| Campus Coordinator Program |
Democracy Matters is accepting applications for paid internships through our Campus Intern Program. We are a non-partisan organization of students and professors working on campuses across the country to educate people about the role of private money in politics, and its impact on democracy. We call for alternatives that can reform and revitalize our political process thereby deepening democracy in the United States. Specifically, we organize around issues of campaign finance reform, full and partial funding of elections, and election reform.

| High School Fellows Program |
The Democracy Matters High School Fellows Program is designed to not only introduce students to the issue of money in politics but also give them support and guidance in developing skills of activism such as outreach, public speaking, and writing. Students who achieve the goals of the program will receive a certificate of achievement and a letter from Democracy Matters that will be sent to colleges and universities of the student’s choosing, outlining their accomplishments in the program and their development as an activist. Being a high school fellow will also act as a first step towards becoming a paid college coordinator. More than one student per high school can receive the certificate and letter as long as they are all contributing to the campaigns.
