The Crime Stoppers Atlanta internship program is designed to provide students and recent graduates with an opportunity to learn about the nonprofit sector including fundraising, event planning and strategic planning.  The Internship is also intended to expose individuals to a hands-on learning experience that provides students with an opportunity to apply classroom knowledge, gain approved and supervised experience in business, agency, and other work environments relative to their major.
