Students of all backgrounds are welcome to apply to the PPIA Fellowship.
Once students have completed the Junior Summer Institute, they join an alumni network of more than 5,000 leaders, providing ongoing connections, opportunities and programs. All alumni enjoy lifetime access to our annual Public Service Expo.
