About the Partnerships in Aging Program: The Partnerships in Aging Program (PiAP) is a campus-wide program located in the Office of the Provost. In collaboration with community organizations and groups, we nurture dialogue about the personal and societal meaning of having a long life, and advance civic engagement as a way to bring about a new kind of aging. PiAP provides expertise and resources to UNC faculty, students, and community partners seeking to reframe the aging experience, together.

About the Internship: HOPE North Carolina is a non-profit organization whose mission is to create inclusive communities where people of all ages and abilities engage with each other. HOPE recently received a multiyear grant from UNC Cares to utilize the collective impact model to bring cross-sector stakeholders together to increase the options for inclusive housing for people who experience disability. HOPE is hiring a graduate level intern to support its role as the backbone organization of this collective group of stakeholders.
