Internship Description:	The Institute for American Values is a private,  
nonpartisan think tank devoted to research, publication, and public  
education on major issues of family well-being and civil society. The  
Institute’s central offices are located in Manhattan, where its staff  
totals five people. Four Affiliate Scholars work full-time from their  
homes on a number of topics including: marriage, fatherhood,  
motherhood, childhood and adolescence, civil society and the definition  
of the human person.

In the past Interns have conducted research for the Institute’s  
Affiliate Scholars either in the New York City public library system  
and/or on the Internet. Interns have also worked on the central office  
staff’s projects, as time has permitted, such as helping to publicize  
the Institute’s reports.

Our current need is for a student who understands or has familiarity  
with the Arabic written language. The Institute is currently preparing  
a book for publication called: “What We’re Fighting For: The  
International Debate”, which stems from the Institute’s release of a  
statement that ignited much discussion in Europe and the  
Arabic-speaking world. The statement and follow-up documents can be  
found at:
.

The student will be working directly with Josephine Abbatiello,  
assistant to the President, to compile the English versions and Arabic  
translations of newspaper articles, commentaries, etc. in preparation  
for publication. The student should therefore have a working knowledge  
of Word, the Internet and Arabic. In addition, the student should be  
organized and methodical, as a bibliography of works will also need to  
be compiled.

How to apply: 	A resume and a cover letter stating the intern's reasons  
for wanting an internship with an organization such as the Institute,  
and how such an internship might help him/her with his/her  
goals/aspirations should be sent either be email (Word attachments are  
preferred) or by mail.

Other:	The Institute is not able to assist the intern in finding  
housing or in making other arrangements for the length of his/her stay  
in New York.
