Fellows gain vital first-hand experience through placements with community-based organizations across the country as well as policy-focused organizations in Washington, D.C.

Selection Criteria

  • A commitment to ending hunger and poverty in the United States;
  • An ability to adjust and adapt to new situations;

  • Demonstrated leadership qualities and skills;
