Home / What We Do / Leadership Development / Host a SELI Fellow

Applications are now closed for host sites in Summer 2025

The Southern Education Foundation values and relies on Southern Education Leadership Initiative (SELI) host site partnerships to expose and train the next generation of education leaders to explore strategies for improving education, addressing community needs, and putting theory into practice. Students are assigned summer placements that pair well with their experience, educational interests, career paths, and developmental needs.

To date, more than 300 SELI fellows have worked in nearly 120 nonprofit organizations, school districts, state agencies, and higher education institutions providing advocacy, grant-making, policy analysis, research, community organizing, and direct service in education. Through the summer fellowship, students receive invaluable training and work experience at an assigned school district, education agency, higher education institution, or nonprofit organization in the southern region of the United States.As SELI continues to extend its impact, we aim to broaden fellowship placements.

Specifically, as education increasingly intersects with technology, SELI would like to expand our host site network to include organizations with a focus on advancing equitable access to technology for students of color and low-income families. Partner with us as we invest in the next generation of leaders equipped to provide innovative solutions.
