professionals (from junior to senior levels) with<br />
a strong commitment to health and aging<br />
issues to join the next class of Health and Aging<br />
Policy Fellows (2017-18). Candidates from<br />
underrepresented groups are strongly encouraged<br />
to apply.<br />
The program aims to create a cadre of leaders to<br />
serve as change agents in health and aging policy.<br />
Fellows are placed in congressional, executive or<br />
other settings and work on key policy issues. The<br />
year-long fellowship offers a unique training and<br />
enrichment program that incorporates mentorship<br />
by senior national policy leaders, policy analysis<br />
and communication skills development, and<br />
professional networking opportunities to provide<br />
fellows with the experience and skills necessary to<br />
