Announcing the 2018-19 U.S. Latino Leadership Fellowship

Greetings and Saludos Colleagues, Supporters, and Friends,

I am thrilled and honored to announce the launch of the U.S. Latino Leadership Fellowship!
 
The U.S. Latino Leadership Fellowship brings together talented and emerging leaders who are committed agents of transformation in U.S. Latino and other underserved communities.
 
I am reaching out to you because of your dedication and efforts to transform communities. In your work, you have undoubtedly come across talented and diverse leaders working across sectors to reduce disparities in U.S. Latino and other underserved communities. These leaders – at all stages of their careers – could benefit from the U.S. Latino Leadership Fellowship.
 
Please help us recruit the inaugural cohort of the U.S. Latino Leadership Fellowship!
 
Beginning in the 2018-19 academic year, the U.S. Latino Leadership Fellowship will provide students with a full tuition scholarship, health insurance, $25,000 living stipend and a comprehensive cocurricular leadership development program during their course of study at HKS (one to two years). Students from joint or concurrent degree programs offered by the school are also encouraged to apply.

To apply for the 2018-2019 academic year, prospective degree candidates must complete the following two steps:
 
1. Apply to Harvard Kennedy School by December 4, 2017 at 5:00 p.m. EST.
