Fellowship Program Through the U.S. PIRG Fellowship Program, you’ll get the kind of experience it takes to make your voice heard on issues that matter. The goal of the U.S. PIRG Fellowship Program is to develop recent college graduates for important roles in the movement for positive social change. As a U.S. PIRG fellow, you’ll gain the hands-on experience it takes to organize public support. You’ll build expertise on transportation solutions, campaign finance reform, toxic pollution cleanup or another important issue. You’ll conduct research, craft policy solutions, act as a spokesperson to the media, build coalitions, write grants, recruit activists and members, and develop the kind of political support you need to win. Your day-to day work might include meeting with a state or national decision-maker, researching or writing a report, canvassing door-to-door, conducting a news conference, or directing a citizen outreach campaign. You’ll work alongside a senior mentor. Upon successful completion of the two-year program, you’ll be eligible for a leadership role within the organization. |
