The Philadelphia Justice & Equity Fellowship (PJEF)
The Philadelphia Justice & Equity Fellowship (PJEF) offers Haverford students paid, year-round internships and career development with organizations tackling racism while building inclusivity and social justice.
PJEFs engage in three types of paid work:
- With the Partner Organization: Full-time 10-week summer internships and 8 hours per week during the academic year.
- Fellows spend 8 additional hours per month in professional development workshops and casual gatherings with peers over food. The program is designed to build vocational capacity and work towards individual goals.
- PJEFs join in networks of organizations with professionals and activists committed to social justice movements.

The PJEF Program Experience
In the words of participants:
“I really enjoyed the workshops and learning from other members of the program on Fridays. It was really nice to have a supportive network of folks to brainstorm issues with.”
Ellie Baron ‘25
“In my social science courses, I’ve struggled to accept quantifying people’s lived experiences, but the Data-based Decision-Making, Social Change, and Making a Difference workshop helped me realize that it’s an inevitable part of operating under grants and other funding. I also learned that data doesn’t always have to be negative, but can also be helpful for the organization and the people they serve.”
Trisha Phan ‘24
“[Learning] how to better organize yourself between your academic life (or your other responsibilities) and your commitment to the organization was very important to me. I think a lot of that work improved my time-management and organizational skills—things that will benefit me greatly in the future, regardless of career.”
Tanvi Jha ‘25
What organizations say:
CPCG has provided a great way for students in the fellowship to learn and grow through personal experiences with the community. We look forward to a continued relationship with the students and staff by more invites to Haverford College programs.

Yet another amazing summer with the CPGC intern!
College Together
CyeNyla was a great ambassador for Haverford College, as someone able to demonstrate a broad interest in social justice and how a commitment to it can be applied to a workplace like ours.
ROAR for Good
Haverford is producing some great social activists. We partner w/ a lot of law firms, advocacy groups, and Haverford is on level as a valuable partner.
