offer focused internship opportunities twice a year with a number of free software organizations.</p>

genderqueer people. Additionally, they are open to residents and nationals of the United States of any gender

Islander. We are planning to expand the program to more participants from underrepresented backgrounds in the
future.</p>

see if it has mentors available. <a href="https://wiki.gnome.org/Outreachy">Detailed information</a> about

during the internship dates and spend 40 hours a week on it.</p>
