Employment Information

INTERNSHIPS:   If you are interested in being considered for internships (short or long-term), please contact our office, and submit a résumé with letter of interest.  Internships are unpaid, and are considered on a rolling basis. For 2021, candidates not residing in Ithaca may be considered for certain short-term projects that can be done remotely.

VOLUNTEERS:  We’re also always interested in speaking with potential candidates for our Board and in welcoming new volunteers.  Please contact us if you’re interested in being considered.

We are also seeking a Coordinator for our Bed & Breakfast program.  You do not need to be a current volunteer with the CCO, but some volunteer experience would be beneficial, along with strong organizational skills and an appreciation for the CCO’s mission.  Please contact our office if you are interested in learning more.
