The Future Leaders of Shreveport Summer Internship Program launched three years ago by Mayor Adrian Perkins will open its application process on Friday, April 8 at 8 a.m.
“Young people represent the future of this city,” said Mayor Perkins. “This program is a great opportunity to give them first-hand experience with the inner workings of city government and is an excellent way to train the next generation of public servants.”
The internship program will give high school and college students from Shreveport the opportunity to work in city government and with some area businesses. Local businesses can partner with the city by either hiring interns through the mayor’s internship program or by making a monetary donation to support the program.
Students can apply online at www.shreveportla.gov from April 8-22. All candidates must go through the City’s application process, including those who wish to work with our local business partners.
The program will begin on June 6th and last eight weeks, ending on July 29th. Interns will work 30 hours a week.
