Join our Issue Campaigns
Each of our issues have volunteer committees that meet on a regular basis to learn about core issues and strategize responses. It is through these committees that additional volunteer projects, events, and focuses develop.
Please sign up for email action alerts, reminders about committee meetings, and more specific ways to get involved!
Attend an Event
Looking for ways to get involved with IJPC? We have many exciting events planned over the next few months. Be sure to visit the events page to find out more about how you can connect with us and other Cincinnatians who are passionate about peace and justice.
Intern
We are excited to offer internship opportunities to college students based on our needs and capacity during a given semester. Often that varies based on the interests, requirements, and availability of students looking for a placement. Interns should have a commitment to peace and justice, be able to work independently and be highly motivated. We typically offer internships based on the school semester or summer calendar.
Information about Summer 2023 intern opportunities coming soon

S. Louise Akers Fellowship
The S. Louise Akers Fellowship has been filled for 2022-2023.
The Intercommunity Justice and Peace Center’s (IJPC) S. Louise Akers Fellowship, through Mercy Volunteer Corps, is an opportunity to spend a year in service through education and advocacy for social justice. This position was created to honor the legacy of S. Louise Akers, SC, co-founder and first director of IJPC, tireless advocate for social justice and integrity of creation. The fellow will inspire and engage communities to create change through analysis and action. Over 11 months, the 2023-2024 fellow will advance their expertise in peace and nonviolence practices and use the information they gain to further advocacy for systemic change in Greater Cincinnati.
Volunteer
If neither a program committee nor an internship seem like a good fit for you, but you still want to give your time to IJPC, we do have occasional volunteer opportunities. These can range from office functions, such as data input and graphic design, to special event planning, such as the Flying Pig Marathon and Annual Gathering. Please email Hayley about your interests and skills to see if we have matching volunteer opportunities.

IJPC’s operational needs involve basic office supplies. Consider donating stamps, paper, file cabinets, cards for our birthday card program for inmates, or DVDs or books for our resource library.
