Job Description
ABOUT THE JOB
The ACLU seeks applicants for a full-time two-year fellowship position in the National Security Project of the ACLU’s National office in New York, NY. This is a hybrid role that has an in-office requirement of two (2) days per week or eight (8) days per month.
OVERVIEW
The National Security Project fights for people and communities harmed by the government in the name of national security, particularly people of color and other marginalized communities who are disproportionately targeted. Through litigation, advocacy, and public education, the Project strives to ensure that people are able to participate fully in civic life and are free from discrimination, unwarranted suspicion and surveillance, unlawful force and detention, and the injustices and stigma that result from these abuses of national security policy. Recognizing the danger of expansive claims of state power, the Project advocates for a robust system of checks and balances, and policies that comply with the Constitution, civil liberties, and human rights.
This is a two-year fellowship position that starts in Fall 2027.
Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis, but priority consideration will be given to applications submitted by October 1, 2026.
