We are a non-profit founded 25 years ago to protect the Community Reinvestment Act.
Here you can view our intern application, however I would like to talk with you about forging a unique arrangement with UMD. As you can see we offer a modest stipend but the terms of the internship can be very flexible and we offer the chance to participate in published work that can help build a student’s CV. If possible it would be great for us to come and visit your department, share our work with you and maybe some of the students and look for an opportunity that offers the students as much as their labor offers us.
Today we have several hundred member groups that were advise on policy, provide research to, help with organizing and training so that they can advocate in the communities for better access to banking, credit, and housing. We have a small research team and we use ArcGIS extensively to map lending and branching activity.
We have been building our internship program and currently have two very good interns that are leaving us this summer (one for law school, the other for his PhD). We are increasingly moving to ArcGIS online for a lot of what we used to send out as PDF files and have several different projects going at any one time.
