Immigrants Rising Fellowship Applications

By immigrationprof

Immigrants Rising Fellowship Applications Due This Weds 5/1!

 
At Immigrants Rising, we believe education is the key to personal transformation. The opportunity to learn, whether it is in a classroom, at a job site or in other forms, gives individuals agency to improve their own lives. Undocumented young people, however, have limited access to professional learning opportunities that offer hands-on experience. We offer fellowships to develop the leadership capacity of undocumented young people as well as foster community building and peer support. Our fellows benefit from career training, mentorship, professional development, and opportunities to educate and empower the undocumented community. 
In this upcoming year, we are offering four fellowship programs: three Bay Area fellowship programs and one nationwide fellowship program.

2019-2020 Fellowship Applications must be submitted by Wednesday, May 1st at 11:59 PM PST.
