Empowering Asian/Asian American Communities Fellowships
Through the Empowering Asian/Asian American Communities Fellowship, a Cardinal Quarter opportunity co-sponsored by the Asian American Activities Center and the Haas Center for Public Service, students engage with Asian/Asian American communities to apply what they have learned in and out of the classroom about race, diversity, equity, social justice, and the Asian/Asian American experience. Students will participate in a quarter-long practicum experience working with a nonprofit organization or government agency on social, political or economic issues affecting Asian/Asian American communities. Fellows can expand on an experience started through a course or extracurricular activity by continuing with an existing partner organization, or they can identify another relevant community organization. Empowering Asian/Asian American Communities Fellows spend the summer working full-time for nine weeks with a supervisor/mentor in a domestic U.S. community organization of their choice.
Each Empowering Asian/Asian American Communities Fellow receives a base stipend of $7000 to support travel and living expenses during the fellowship. Financial aid and supplemental funding are available to students who qualify.
