2004 CAPAL Scholarships
http://www.capal.org/

The Conference on Asian Pacific American Leadership (CAPAL) will be
awarding 6 scholarships to outstanding Asian Pacific American (APA) college
undergraduates and one scholarship to a graduate student for internships in
Washington, D.C. for the summer of 2004. Awarded annually since 1992, the
scholarships are intended to enable outstanding APA scholars with the
potential for leadership, to work full-time and learn about ways to influence
public policy that benefits APA communities. Through the generous donations
of its sponsors, CAPAL is able to fund 6 students with $2000 stipends.

Any students interning in Washington, D.C. with an interest in current issues
facing the APA community are also encouraged to participate in CAPAL's
Washington Leadership Program (WLP), a free leadership development and
education series. Through intense workshops and skill-building sessions
conducted weekly in the evenings, the WLP participants develop an
understanding of public policies that affect APA communities and the skills
needed to bring leadership to the community.

CAPAL, a 501(c)(3) charitable and education organization, was founded in
1989 by APA professionals as a nonprofit, nonpartisan educational
organization. Its mission is to promote Asian Pacific American interests and
success in public sector careers, to provide information and education on
policy issues affecting the APA community, and to serve the APA community
at large.

Please inform both undergraduate and graduate students of this exciting
opportunity to gain exposure to the unique public resources of Washington,
D.C., develop leadership skills and learn more about important issues facing
the Asian Pacific American community.
