This internship offers a unique opportunity to gain hands-on experience in the field of nonprofit finance and community development.

PBCIP was founded on the principle that its members inspire their fellow residents to find constructive ways to take back their neighborhood. Over 30 years ago, the organization evolved when a single anti-drug march led to a community wide meeting to explore long-term solutions to neighborhood blight. The meeting, in turn, led to the formation of PBCIP as a 501C3 non-profit organization which for most of its existence was run solely by volunteers from the neighborhood. Today, PBCIP is managed by a dedicated staff and team of consultants who are actively formulating fair and just strategies aimed at fostering a more equitable future for the Parkside community, addressing challenges related to inequality, disinvestment and economic mobility.
