Social Media Intern Positions with The Lexicon

The Lexicon is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization based in Petaluma, California that uses evidence-based storytelling, strategy and mobilization to build movements tackling our food system’s greatest challenges.
We would like to bring aboard two social media interns to support our team with the launch of new initiatives. Depending on how the journey unfolds, these intern positions may evolve into longer-term roles with the organization.

Interns must be self-starters comfortable with the endless cycle of risking, failing, then risking again until they determine the best course of action.
