We Salute Our 2014 - 2016 Fellows!
|
Join us in saluting the 2014 -- 2016 fellows class. Our esteemed fellows worked with congressional members and committees, attended leadership development seminars, completed community service projects and produced legislative recommendations to make existing policy work better.
CBCF Fellows gained invaluable insight into the legislative process. By working in
Congressional Black Caucus (CBC) member offices they were able to assist in the
development of public policy initiatives that aim to better our communities.
Many of our fellows will be continuing their public service in Washington, D.C. in new government and non-profit positions.
Join us in celebrating the CBCF fellowship cohort of 2014 - 2016!
