Support for Individual Artists<\/a> co-chair Celeste Smith, who was selected for the Bridging Fellows Program. “The Bridging Fellows program provides changemakers in Pittsburgh, Chicago, and Dallas the opportunity to strengthen their individual and collective leadership capacity and grow networks to support building healthy and equitable communities.” <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
From the Independent Sector: “A Bridging Fellow actively engages individuals, communities, and\/or organizations for the purpose of building bridges across varying differences, including ideological, racial, socioeconomic, and geographical. Bridging Fellows-formally and\/or informally-build relationships, trust, and opportunities for open and honest communication towards sustainable change and impact \u2013 including but not limited to- activists, community residents, organization leaders, community liaisons, youth development coordinators, program officers, case managers, community organizers, educators, human resource professionals, etc.”<\/p>\n
“Through participation in the fellowship, Fellows will receive capacity and skill-building activities and instructions around bridging frameworks, share their bridging expertise with the cohort and broader social sector, and commit to deploy these practices in their organizations and communities. As a cohort, they will share their learnings and deepen their connections with each other across sectors, institutions, and geographies.”<\/p>\n
