*UPDATED March 10, 2026: We are not currently accepting any requests for internships while our staff redesigns our internship program. If you are a high school student looking for research experience we recommend our Young Scientists Research Experience. If you have a specific project our staff can help you with in some way please get in touch at info@cliftoninstitute.org.

If you are interested in volunteering for our organization, you can find upcoming volunteer days on our calendar here. You can select “Volunteer days” in the “Program type” menu to see upcoming dates. Fall and winter tend to be our busiest seasons for volunteering, with opportunities to remove invasive species, maintain trails, help conduct prescribed burns, and help with our native plant propagation. We also rely on volunteers to help run our K-12 field trips from September to May. We usually run education volunteer training days in September and February and those days will be on our calendar about a month beforehand.

Middle and high school students who are interested in getting experience doing scientific research should check out our Young Scientists Research Experience.
