Graduate Fellowship Program
With CHCI’s fellowship, you plot your own path. Guided by CHCI, you will research opportunities to work in congressional offices, committees, federal agencies, or even the White House. Choose one that best matches your policy focus area—K-12 education, health, housing, law, energy—and consider changing your placement midway through the program to maximize your experience. In addition to working for members of Congress, graduate fellows have worked with these and other remarkable organizations:
- American Petroleum Institute
- American Public Health Association
- Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund
- National Urban League
- U.S. Department of Agriculture
- U.S. Department of Homeland Security
- U.S. House Committee on Financial Services

CHCI Public Policy Fellow
As a CHCI Public Policy Fellow, you will immerse yourself in the legislative process, spending four days each week (Monday-Thursday) learning all facets of public policy. On Fridays, you will join other fellows for a full day of leadership development centered on CHCI’s four Pillars of Leadership—Civic Engagement, Social Responsibility, Self-Empowerment, and Promoting Community and Hispanic Culture. Your weekly programming will also prepare you to fully understand policy issues facing the Latino community and how to propose effective solutions by critically examining all sides and implications of these issues.
