Business and Professional People For The Public Interest - Polikoff Gautreaux Fellowship

Business and Professional People for the Public Interest ("BPI") offers the Polikoff-Gautreaux Fellowship, an exceptional fellowship opportunity for a recent law or public policy graduate. One of the country’s foremost public interest law and policy centers, BPI seeks out and addresses compelling issues of social justice and quality of life in the Chicago region. Currently, BPI works to transform segregated public housing, revitalize economically disadvantaged communities, improve Chicago’s public schools, and increase the availability of affordable housing throughout the metropolitan region.

Fellows receive an attractive salary and benefits (including school loan repayment assistance, based on need).

Applications for the 2010 Fellowship are due October 16, 2009. Interested applicants may also consult the website, www.bpichicago.org, for more information on BPI’s programs.
