In partnership with Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government, HUD is pleased to launch the Community Builders Fellowship program. The aim of the Community Builders Fellowship is to recruit and prepare a new generation of leaders - from diverse professions - who are committed to building a stronger, healthier American Community. To become a Community Builder you must have the know-how to help cities and towns access national assistance and cut through red tape. You must be able to help a community design an effective strategy to address a full range of needs - including housing, economic development and homeownership. Those chosen will receive five weeks of training at Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government during the two year Fellowship. Fellows will serve on the front lines in one of 81 cities across the country - as HUD's front door - providing a critical point of contact for thousands of people who count on us. You will become the new face of HUD. If you have the skills, the drive and the desire to make a difference, you can become a Community Builder. To apply for a Community Builders Fellowship, call the information line at 1.800.497.3823 or visit the HUD homepage at www.hud.gov. Deadline to apply is April 9, 1998. .
