    Description

    Join a small group of Advocacy Fellows in Connecticut. U.S. Senator Chris Murphy is on the Senate subcommittee that funds foreign aid, so his constituents have an important opportunity to make a difference for global health.

    You will be trained and supported in effective citizen advocacy, urging the Senator to support measures to increase the impact of U.S. global health programs. Currently we are focused on increasing U.S. aid for the delivery of frontline health care and on improved reporting on the health outcomes of our aid.

    Advocacy Fellows work about 6 hours a week for a minimum of 12 months, with regular small-group coaching by video chat. All activities can be conducted remotely.
