The Wellstone Fellowship
The Wellstone Fellowship for Social Justice ( http://ga3.org/ct/e1AGWQM1Br13/ ) aims to advance social justice through health care advocacy by focusing particularly on the unique challenges facing communities of color. Through this fellowship, established to honor the memory of the late Senator Paul D. Wellstone, we hope to expand the pool of talented social justice advocates from underrepresented racial and ethnic minority groups.
The ideal candidate must demonstrate an interest in health care policy and racial/ethnic health disparities. Additionally, we are looking for an individual who displays the potential to contribute to social justice work after their year of hands-on experience as a fellow.


You can find more information, including a downloadable application form, on our Web site: http://www.familiesusa.org/about/wellstone-fellowship.html ( http://ga3.org/ct/e1AGWQM1Br13/ )
The application deadline for the Wellstone Fellowship is February 5, 2010.
