Apply for this RESULTS Organizing and Advocacy Fellowship 2024
The RESULTS Organizing and Advocacy Fellowship 2024 is currently accepting applications until October 31, 2023. This fellowship aims to empower and train advocates who are dedicated to influencing political decisions that can lead to the eradication of poverty.
It provides a unique opportunity for young adults to expand their knowledge and experience in congressional operations and organization while actively advocating for critical poverty-related issues such as global health and affordable housing. The RESULTS Fellowship offers comprehensive training and support to enable fellows to effectively communicate, engage with the media, directly advocate to members of Congress, and mobilize their communities.
Over the course of 43 years, RESULTS has demonstrated that when individuals use their voices effectively, significant progress can be made towards ending poverty. Joining RESULTS means gaining valuable skills, interacting with Congress members in Washington, D.C., and contributing to key campaigns in 2024, which will focus on addressing the unequal impacts of COVID-19, ending the global tuberculosis epidemic, and addressing the affordable housing crisis.

- Receiving extensive training and support to become a powerful advocate for poverty eradication.
- Writing articles and op-eds that can be published in the media.
- Learning how to influence your Congressional representative on issues like child survival, vaccines, and global nutrition.
