PAEA is proud to announce the selection of the 2021–2022 Student Health Policy Fellowship cohort.

Based upon the success of the first expansion of the fellowship last year, the 2021–2022 cohort will continue at its larger size of 20 students. While the fellowship will continue to be conducted virtually due to COVID-19, students will once again participate in the full fellowship experience. From September 13–15, fellows will learn from influential policy staffers, experts in PA practice and education advocacy, and other advocacy stakeholders before having the opportunity to directly meet with the offices of their elected representatives.
