NNPA NEWSWIRE — The Foundation awards each participating school at least one $5,600 housing grant per academic semester to address lack of diversity in the intern population and structural inequity of housing costs by getting next generation leaders to the resource ladder in Washington— and then, getting them up on it. In addition to the housing grant, the Center assists in placing the participating students in an internship and connects them with a local alumni mentor.
