Providing the next generation of local government leaders is important to the City of Auburn Hills and as a result, City Council has made it a priority in our budget to provide opportunities for internships that not only support our service delivery, but also provide experiential opportunities for early career individuals to gain exposure to quality local government operations.  This year we welcome five (5) interns who represent various educational backgrounds and contribute to the success of our community by sharing their knowledge with us while we share ours with them.  Below are the 2020 Auburn Hills interns along with the role they are in and their educational pursuits.  We welcome each and every one of them and wish them great success.
