NLIHC is excited to announce the launch of a new initiative, “Generation Housing Justice”! Designed to bring more young advocates into the housing justice movement, Generation Housing Justice will run from January to May 2025 and equip 20 fellows, ages 18 to 24, with the knowledge and resources needed to successfully advocate for federal affordable housing solutions. Apply for Generation Housing Justice today!
Young advocates selected as Generation Housing Justice fellows will receive a $1,000 stipend upon successfully completing the program, as well as travel support to attend NLIHC’s Housing Policy Forum and Capitol Hill Day in Washington D.C. The program will involve monthly virtual meetings, attendance at Housing Policy Forum and Capitol Hill Day in March, and a final project that contributes to NLIHC’s mission. Projects may include but are not limited to writing and publishing an op-ed, starting a campus or community housing advocacy group focused on NLIHC’s priorities, or planning and facilitating a discussion with elected officials. Applications will be accepted until November 1 at 5 pm ET, and fellows will be notified of decisions by December 2. People with lived experience of housing instability or homelessness are encouraged to apply.
