The Congressional Black Caucus Foundation (CBCF) plays a very critical role
in preparing and equipping graduate students and emerging leaders with the
tools necessary for success in public service careers. The foundation of
this success rests with a solid understanding of the public policy process.
Since 1976, the inaugural year of the Graduate Intern Program, CBCF has
been providing a training ground to facilitate this understanding.
In 1983, the Congressional Fellows Program
was specifically created to address the under-representation of Black professionals
on Capitol Hill and afford program participants more extensive research
and policy analysis opportunities. Presently, CBCF has two Fellows Programs
designed to address these and other concerns: the Congressional Fellows
Program and the Louis Stokes
Urban Health Policy Fellows Program. To date, more than 150 individuals
have served as Fellows and many now have full-time positions on Capitol
Hill, with federal agencies and in prominent public policy organizations.
