You should definitely apply for the Bill Emerson National Hunger Fellowship program! It’s just a great opportunity for you to develop a deep understanding of effective solutions to hunger and poverty, and your own roles in achieving Zero Hunger in the United States.

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. The program bridges gaps between local efforts and national public policy, as fellows support partner organizations with program development, research, evaluation, outreach, organizing, and advocacy projects.
