Idaho Partners for Good
Email

The 2026 Data Analyst Intern will help IP4G improve the quality, usability, and credibility of our N2N data and nonprofit ecosystem map. Your work will support real storytelling, reports, and grant applications — helping Idaho communities better understand where services exist and where gaps remain.

This internship is designed to give you hands-on experience with social impact data, community mapping, and applied analytics in a nonprofit setting. 

 

Two Primary Roles

1) Impact Data Analyst (Social Impact Track)

You will help IP4G track and visualize key Neighbor-to-Neighbor metrics in key areas of social determinants of health:

  • Number of nonprofits serving in a county/legislative district in one of the 5 key areas of social determinants of health
  • By ALICE indicators (housing, food, childcare, healthcare, behavioral health)
  • County-level/legislative district snapshots of need vs. nonprofit presence
  • Identify best practices, local stories (positive and negative) of impact, etc. 

What you’ll actually do (reasonable scope):

  • Clean and organize datasets in Google Sheets
  • Create simple visuals (charts, tables, or dashboards) in:
    • Google Sheets or Tableau (if you have interest/experience)
  • Help summarize findings in short, plain-language notes that IP4G can use in reports. 

2) Community Mapping Assistant (Nonprofit Ecosystem Map)

You will help improve and verify the Idaho nonprofit ecosystem map by:

  • Reviewing nonprofit service delivery areas by county/legislative district 
  • Checking whether organizations currently serve in:
    • Housing instability 
    • Food insecurity 
    • Healthcare
    • Behavioral health
    • Childcare/Education

       
  • Spotting obvious gaps or overlaps in services across counties
  • Updating records based on:
    • Public data (websites, reports, directories), and/or
    • Short verification steps with nonprofits (if appropriate)

Deliverable to IP4G:

By the end of the summer, you will produce:

A student-verified dataset + updated county/legislative district maps showing:

  • Which nonprofits serve each county and legislative district 
  • What type of services they provide
  • Where potential gaps or overlaps appear

This will be used for:

  • Storytelling
  • Grant proposals
  • Public presentations
  • IP4G’s evolving Our Idaho: Neighbor-to-Neighbor Data Website

     

What You Will Learn

By the end of this internship, you will gain experience in:

  • Social impact data analysis
  • Community mapping and GIS concepts
  • Working with real-world nonprofit data
  • Translating data into insights for decision-makers
  • Cross-sector collaboration (nonprofits, philanthropy, community leaders)

This is excellent preparation for careers in:

  • Public policy
  • Data analytics
  • Social impact
  • Urban planning
  • Public health
  • Nonprofit leadership

Who Should Apply

Strong candidates may be studying:

  • Data Science
  • Public Policy
  • Geography / GIS
  • Public Health
  • Sociology
  • Political Science
  • Business Analytics
  • Environmental Studies

You do not need to be an expert — curiosity and reliability matter more than perfect technical skills.

Helpful skills (not required):

  • Comfort with Google Sheets
  • Interest in maps or data visualization
  • Attention to detail
  • Ability to work independently with check-ins

Mentorship & Support

You will be supervised by IP4G staff and will have:
