Applications are now open for the Fiscal Leadership Lab, a national cohort bringing together students from across the country to build fiscal knowledge and policy skills, providing them with:

• A comprehensive understanding of the fiscal implications of policymaking
• Tangible experience leading initiatives grounded in fiscal impact and navigating policymaking
• Essential skills in policy development, community organizing, and advocacy
• Professional relationships and connection to a network of other student civic leaders that will serve them throughout their careers

Participation is offered free of charge to students across 10 geographic regions. Students will join their regional cohorts for regular, in-person gatherings and take part in virtual nationwide training opportunities.
