Overview
The Rodel Fellowship encourages deeper, nonpartisan thinking and cross-partisan relationships among America’s rising political leaders. It enrolls 24 early-career elected officials annually into a class-based program designed for illuminating exchanges about ethical values, democratic principles, and wise public leadership in order to enlarge and improve the pool of candidates for future leadership of the country. This grant will support the continued integration of classes into a national network of leaders in good governance through virtual problem-solving meetings and a retreat to explore bipartisan policy solutions, cultivate a shared framework for understanding our historical moment, and marshal motivation for public service.
