[Jessica Barnes]

Greetings,

 

We are excited to announce that the 2016-2017 White House Fellows
application is now  <https://fellows.whitehouse.gov/> LIVE.  The deadline
for application submission is January 12, 2016.  

 

WHAT IS THE WHITE HOUSE FELLOWS PROGRAM?

Over fifty years ago, President Lyndon B. Johnson established the
President's Commission on White House Fellowships and over the course of
nine presidential administrations the nonpartisan White House Fellows
program has become the nation's premier fellowship for public service and
leadership. The program's mission is to expose Fellows to first-hand,
high-level experience in the Federal government. The program consists of a
full-time work placement in the offices of Cabinet Secretaries, senior White
House staff, and other high-ranking Administration officials. During a year
in Washington, DC, Fellows also participate in a robust education program
designed to provide a behind-the-scenes look into the inner workings of the
Federal government. It is an extraordinary year that yields a lifetime of
rewards. Learn more about the White House Fellows program

House Fellows program staff will lend support and provide background
