The Equity Fellowship is Open to All California-Based College and Graduate Students
2021 summer fellows will support the growth of The Children’s Movement, and gain experience in network development through data-driven online recruitment and engagement in policy campaigns, while also learning about how Movement members support statewide advocacy. Fellows will attend meetings with and learn from Children Now policy experts in various children’s issues such as health, education, and child welfare. This paid fellowship is ideal for students who are interested in learning more about public policymaking, outreach, advocacy, communications, and non-profit organizations.
Our 2020 summer fellows shared some insights into their experiences:
“… you have the opportunity to choose which areas you want to explore more of, which I find super beneficial”
“… it really allows you to explore more about yourself and make your job more personal, which allows you to love what you are doing.”
“You will learn the behind the scenes of policy and advocacy in a way you've never been taught.”
“You can learn about so many opportunities, roles, and issues/solutions happening in your own community that you would not have otherwise known about.”
Fellows will work virtually, due to shelter-in-place orders in California, unless otherwise notified, and the program will run for approximately 8 weeks, beginning in June.
Please share this opportunity with your community. Applications are due March 9!
