The Washington Internship Institute sponsors a number of events, mainly in conjunction with its academic internship program, so that our participants may take full advantage of all that Washington has to offer.

The Washington Internship Institute (WII), an educational nonprofit organization, focuses on three principles: public service, leadership and professional development. Rigorous academics and practical internship and immersion experiences in the most powerful city in the world enable WII to create active citizens prepared to serve in their local, state, national and global communities in the 21st century.
