The ReNew Democracy Foundation seeks to open doors for a diversity of new voices from across the country who want to make a difference in pragmatic, solutions-oriented, center-left congressional offices and will support these emerging leaders with a monthly stipend, professional development opportunities, mentorship, and networking through the ReNew Democracy Fellowship. Paid fellows will be placed in a U.S. House of Representatives office from January 5, 2026 – September 25, 2026.
For nine months, ReNew Democracy Fellows will work side-by-side with Members of Congress and their staff on legislative initiatives, meetings with stakeholders, and research. Each fellow will learn overall congressional procedure, dynamics of the House, and focus on a key issue area, such as housing, workforce development, or health care. They will also participate in professional and personal development programming, including career development, mentorship, and a capstone project.
