The Summer Internship is a six-week immersion with Christian communities of color working for justice around the city of Los Angeles. Participants live in community with a team of students in different inner-city Los Angeles neighborhoods, serving and learning alongside neighborhood community based organizations, while engaging with local and national faith leaders around biblical justice, poverty, race, money, and faith-rooted advocacy through a lense of mutual conversion and intelligent love.
