The Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute (CHCI) was established in 1978 by members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus as a non-profit, non-partisan educational organization dedicated to developing the next generation of Latino leaders. CHCI's educational services are designed to provide Latino students with the tools and resources they need to succeed in attaining a higher education. Its leadership development programs seek to help participants search for and understand, their identity as professionals, Latinos, and leaders. By bringing together individuals who share a commitment to serve their communities, CHCI endeavors to make its vision of an educated and civic-minded Latino community a reality. Public Policy Fellowship Program Every year, the nine-month Fellowship Program (late August to late May) offers up to 21 promising Latinos from across the country the opportunity to gain hands-on experience at the national level in the public policy area of their choice (General Public Policy Fellowship). Fellows have the opportunity to work in such areas as international affairs, economic development, education policy, housing, or local government. CHCI also aims to develop leaders in areas of public health administration (Edward Roybal Public Health Fellowship), telecommunications (Telecommunications Fellowship),corporate-public interest (Corporate Fellow), and financial services (Financial Services Fellowship). These specialized fellowships are open only to individuals with a graduate degree. CHCI provides participants with Domestic round-trip transportation to Washington, DC Health insurance Gross monthly stipend of $2,061 to help cover housing and local expenses; Fellows with a graduate degree receive a $2,500 monthly stipend.

The range of placements includes congressional offices, federal agencies, Washington-based media, corporate federal affairs offices, national advocacy organizations, and government-related institutions. Participants have the option of changing placements at the mid-point of the program. Community Service Project Through the community service project, fellows must cooperate and rely on each other's strengths to achieve a greater public good. They are challenged to set aside individual ideologies/beliefs and take a project from its initial conception to its completion. In the process, fellows learn how to work with each other's work styles, and how to lead, follow, delegate, and trust one another. For the fellows, as well as for the Institute, the collaborative service project has become one of the most challenging and rewarding components of the program. Learning Fellows' intensive work experience is enhanced by weekly sessions that allow them to meet with national leaders and engage in substantive policy discussions. In addition, fellows produce a public policy paper and submit two journal reports through which they assess their professional growth. Through Washington's wealth of information, contacts, and possibilities, the Fellowship Program serves as an excellent opportunity for participants to identify or confirm their career goals. Furthermore, participants also receive support and guidance from the CHCI's Alumni Association.

About Harold Howe II (1918-2002) Harold "Doc" Howe left a rich legacy as a seminal leader in the development of the federal role in education. As a school superintendent, principal and teacher, he championed the cause of gender and racial equality and encouraged expanded opportunity, especially for those ill-served by impoverished schools and dysfunctional communities. As Chair of Youth and America's Future: The William T. Grant Foundation Commission on Work, Family and Citizenship, he advocated a broad conception of education and youth development to build strong families, competent workers, lifelong learners and responsible citizens. The American Youth Policy Forum was created in 1993 to pursue many of the goals represented in the Grant Commission's 1988 reports on "The Forgotten Half." Fellowship Details The AMERICAN YOUTH POLICY FORUM (AYPF) announces the inauguration of a Fellowship to be awarded each year to a promising young scholar or scholar-practitioner. The Fellow will carry out a self-designed project on significant issues in youth policy, practice, research or program evaluation, focusing particularly on disadvantaged youth. The Fellowship is supported under a grant from the Ford Foundation. The first Fellowship will be available for work commencing in the Summer or Fall of 2003. AYPF envisions that this prestigious Fellowship award will help initiate a professional career in the youth policy arena. It is designed to help attract talented and high-achieving scholars to the field of youth work and youth policy development, and expand the knowledge base for improving policy and practice. The work of the Fellows will at the same time contribute to the expertise of AYPF and of the youth policy field, as Fellows carry out an in-depth exploration of an important issue or initiative. Such projects will help to extend and deepen AYPF's current work in developing youth policy reports on effective interventions for youth. It is expected that in the 12-month period of the Fellowship, a report will be produced of high quality and based on rigorous analysis. The resulting paper will be published and disseminated by AYPF and may be the basis for an article in a peer- reviewed journal. We also anticipate that the scholar's project may be the basis for one or more AYPF forums to be held on Capitol Hill. Criteria for Selection Master of Arts degree or higher earned in the past five years. Applicants must possess excellent writing and sufficient computer competency to carry out their own research and writing. A tightly-written 3 to 5-page proposal outlining the proposed scope of work, methodology and resources to be consulted. (An accompanying biographical sketch, professional recom-mendations, prior employment history, and previous writings should be appended to the application. However, the prime basis for the AYPF Fellowship award is the quality and relevancy of the submitted proposal to the field of youth policy and practice.) The Fellow will work full-time for a 12-month period (including a vacation period) at the offices of AYPF in Washington, DC. She/he will have access to AYPF's extensive networks, learning events and the experts and resource people that participate in them. AYPF senior staff will act as mentors. Deadline for Proposals Deadline for proposals is March 1, 2003. Our intention is to announce the first Fellowship awardee early in May 2003. The awardee may begin residence at AYPF by mutual agreement over the next one-year period. Fellows will receive a stipend of $25,000 and, if not otherwise available, health insurance. Please submit all applications to: Harold Howe II Fellowship, American Youth Policy Forum, 1836 Jefferson Place, NW, Washington, DC 20036-2505. To learn more about AYPF, see our website at www.aypf.org. "It is high time for those of us who want to improve education to stop paying more attention to schools than to kids. We tend to think of children as if their lives could be divided up into neat compartments-school in one slot, home and community in another. We know that many children today come to school damaged by poverty, by disrupted family situations, by other factors that schools cannot influence, let alone control. We know, if we are willing to face it, that anything we can do to help families-by offering them paths out of poverty, for example-will be a real help to children." --Harold Howe II American Youth Policy Forum The American Youth Policy Forum (AYPF) is a non-profit, professional development organization based in Washington, DC. AYPF provides nonpartisan learning opportunities for professionals working on youth policy issues at the national, state and local levels. Our goal is to enable policymakers and their aides to be more effective in their professional duties and of greater service-to Congress, the Administration, state legislatures, governors and national organizations-in the development, enactment, and implementation of sound policies affecting our nation's young people. We believe that knowing more about youth issues-both intellectually and experientially-helps policymakers formulate better policies for the nation. AYPF does not take positions on pending legislation. Rather, we endeavor to develop better communication, greater understanding and enhanced trust among these professionals, and to create a climate that will result in constructive action.
