Overview
The Rodel Fellowships program encourages deeper, nonpartisan thinking and cross-partisan relationships among the next generation of America’s political leaders. It enrolls 24 early-career elected officials every year into a core class-based program of philosophical conversations about the nature of and responsibilities involved in public service. This grant will support ongoing efforts to integrate fellows from all classes into a sustainable network through a biennial retreat and other programming and services. Organized on the basis of office, locality, and other attributes, the network helps fellows study shared challenges, advance solutions, and maintain motivation for public service.
