Dear John,

We're excited to announce that applications are open for the fifth cohort of the Families Invested in Reforming Education (FIRE) fellowship.

We developed the FIRE fellowship to empower parents, advocates, educators and leaders to become community changemakers. Fellows receive training on how to advocate for and advance policies in their community, with sessions on building successful campaigns and coalitions, creating enduring social movements, and working with electeds to drive change.

This six-week virtual training program provides aspiring advocates with the advocacy skills and the tools they need. FIRE is open to parents, educators, and community advocates invested in improving our education system from all 50 states, and is perfect for those beginning their advocacy journey. 

Please feel free to share this application with friends, colleagues and family members who you'd consider to be a great fit. The application window closes on October 2.

Thanks for your consideration. For any questions about the program, simply reply to this email.
