The applications can be accessed online by visiting www.chciyouth.org or by contacting the Institute at 1-800.EXCEL.DC. Application deadlines are January 31, 2004 for the internship; March 1, 2004 for the fellowship; and April 15, 2004 for the scholarship. The Summer Internship Program selects 30 promising Latino undergraduates for an eight-week internship in the nation's capital. While in Washington, DC interns work in Congressional offices. The Fellowship program offers up to 20 promising Latinos nationwide the opportunity to gain hands-on experience at the national level in the public policy area of their choice. The nine-month fellowship gives participants the opportunity to work in such areas as international affairs, economic development, education policy, housing or corporate affairs. CHCI awards scholarships to Latino students from the fifty U.S. states and Puerto Rico who have a history of performing public and/or community service activities in their communities. Recipients receive a one-time scholarship of $2,500 to attend a four-year or graduate-level academic institution or $1,000 to attend a two-year community college. CHCI, a non-profit and non-partisan 501(c)(3) organization, provides educational programs for Hispanic college and postgraduate students. The CHCI Board of Directors is comprised of Hispanic Members of Congress, non-profit leaders, and corporate executives. For more information on CHCI, call 1-800-EXCEL DC or visit www.chci.org. |
