Congressional Black Caucus Foundation's Corporate Advisory Council wanted to share with you a few great fellowship opportunities being offered by the CBC Foundation. Please feel free to share these with your family and friends who may have students interested in public service careers. The deadline for applying is April 16, 2009.
The Congressional Black Caucus Foundation (CBCF) plays a very critical
role in preparing and equipping young policy professionals and emerging leaders
with the tools necessary for success in public service careers. Since 1976,
CBCF has offered opportunities for early to mid-level professionals to
work on Capitol Hill. Over 150 individuals have served as CBCF Congressional
Fellows and many now have full-time positions on Capitol Hill, with federal
agencies and in prominent public policy organizations. The foundation
of their success rests with a solid understanding of the public policy process.
CBCF provides a training ground to facilitate this understanding.
CBCF Congressional Fellows Program targets early-career policy professionals who have completed a professional or graduate degree and have a demonstrated interest in public policy and public service. CBCF Fellows work on Capitol Hill in the office of a Congressional Black Caucus member.
CBCF Louis Stokes Urban Health Policy Fellows Program offers health
policy professionals an invaluable, hands-on experience to be a part
of the federal health policy-making process. The primary goal of the program
is to increase the pool of qualified, minority health policy professionals who
will work to eliminate health disparities in the United States and abroad.
CBCF Louis Stokes Fellows work in a Congressional Black Caucus member's
office and on a congressional committee.
