Secular Student Alliance
Are you a college student who:

Talks about ideas seriously?
 
Lives an ethical & fulfilling life without the supernatural?
 
Thinks it is more important that we can live together than that we all agree?
 
Sees democracy as an ideal worth living up to?
 
Believes science and reason lead to more reliable knowledge than faith?

Have you ever wanted to spend a summer interning on Capitol Hill? Are you looking to boost your resume while defending the values and principles important to you? Do you want the opportunity to make great professional contacts with important advocacy organizations on Capitol Hill? Are you interested in earning college credit for promoting public policy that nontheistic Americans care about?

If you answered yes to these questions, consider applying for the Secular Coalition for America’s Capitol Hill Scholars Program.

Here’s how it works: While we can’t guarantee that you’ll land an internship on Capitol Hill, the Secular Coalition will work with you to get your resume and cover letter through the door to elected offices and do everything in our power to help you land a highly coveted internship on Capitol Hill.

Applicants who are accepted for internships will then officially become part of our Capitol Hill Scholars Program, where we will offer you fantastic learning and networking opportunities and the tools and skills you need to be a nontheist advocate on Capitol Hill. We also hope to offer a stipend for students who are part of the Scholars Program based on financial need.

If you are interested in this summer internship opportunity, contact Sasha Bartolf, the Legislative Director for the Secular Coalition for America, to begin the process of applying to work on Capitol Hill.

Yes! Our B'nai Mitzvah events are extremely meaningful and moving, as we watch our young members take the next step in their journeys to adulthood and lives filled with joy, wonder and purpose. You can read some of their thoughtful expressions below:

Bar Mitzvah Speech of Isaac Warshauer

Bat Mitzvah Speech of Deborah Metz


Our current Mitzvah students are writing essays about their "Humanistic heroes." You can read some of them below:

Ari Smith: "My Most Interesting Relative's Journey to America and Humanistic Judaism"

Many of our post-B'nai Mitzvah students come back as Sunday School teachers themselves. This is a real testament to the sense of community and depth of cultural knowledge and identity that they have acquired as members of Kol Haskalah.
