We are currently recruiting 10 InternXL interns to serve at culturally and historically significant NPS sites, where they will support interpretation, education, descendant and community engagement, and preservation work.

Interns will assist in the development of an interpretive story map and other public-facing materials that help communicate this important and often overlooked story. Their work will contribute to the park's efforts in celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the BSCP in 2025. Interns will also help launch the first informal interpretive activities at the new Chicago unit. They will play a key role in greeting and engaging visitors during the busy summer season.
The internship will provide the student with marketable skills that will further their professional career in educational programming, public interpretation, community engagement, public historic land management, and communications. This opportunity will also include the development of integrated information technology tools to enhance the visitor experience. Additionally, the position will support EO14189 "Celebrating America's 250th Birthday." This interpretive project will support the celebration of the Pullman Porters' contributions to the economic advancement of the United States of America.
