Internship Location: Madison WI
Organization Type: Nonprofit
Policy Areas: Environment/Health
I worked with the Climate Solutions for Health Lab to analyze the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law for its impacts on health, climate, and equity. From this internship, I’ve learned many skills such as policy analysis and policy memo writing. These have strengthened my interest in policy that specifically impacts health outcomes. As for skills that I’ve learned at La Follette, they have definitely helped me look at my internship in a different light. Instead of just focusing on my actual work subject, these skills from La Follette have taught me how to look at the structure of my organization and other various larger aspects of the job. I would absolutely recommend this internship to future students because of how enjoyable the experience has been so far.
