ReLeaf Program Intern

The ReLeaf Program Intern will participate in a hands-on immersion into tree planting, care, and outreach across urban and suburban contexts. The intern will also help within the Tree Equity Department, support community education on the benefits of urban tree canopy, and assist with community surveying to gather input for community forestry and ReLeaf plans.

In addition, the intern will help with the development and updating of website content and other communications materials for the ReLeaf program to help share information, highlight community engagement, and promote project progress.

The intern position can fulfill college credit internship requirements of 150 hours for the Spring 2026 semester, and Tree Pittsburgh is open to discussing any additional school internship requirements. However, those who are not seeking college credit, and/or do not need a full 150 hours for their internship are still encouraged to apply.

Position start date, end date, and hours per week are flexible and negotiable depending on the candidate’s needs and availability. Interns are expected to work a minimum of 10 hours per week, starting no later than the week of February 9, 2026, and ending no later than May 21, 2026.  The nature of community outreach work means some evening and Saturday activities, therefore the intern should have a flexible schedule.
