About
The Health and Aging Policy Fellows Program offers four different tracks for individual placement: (1) a residential track that includes a nine-to-12-month placement in Washington, D.C. or at a state agency (as a legislative assistant in Congress, a professional staff member in an executive branch agency or in a policy organization); (2) a non-residential track that includes a health policy project and brief placement(s) throughout the year at relevant sites; (3) a global non-residential track that will allow 1-3 fellows to participate on global policy issues related to health and aging; and (4) a community non-residential track that will allow 1-3 fellows to participate on state and local policy issues related to health and aging. Stipends are available for residential and non-residential fellows. Residential fellows stipends vary, and non-residential fellows may receive up to $10,000 to cover costs.
