Dear John,
Applications are open for our 2022 Congressional Leadership Development Program (CLDP)! Are you or someone you know ready to avail this unique opportunity valued at $10,000? Our CLDP program is offered at zero cost to accepted candidates and places youth in a coveted Capitol Hill internship position for 10 weeks during the summer.

CLDP is an experience that will last a lifetime. Some of the benefits of our CLDP Program include:
- A generous stipend
- Free housing
- Placement in Congressional office
- Application material consultations
- Pre-program guides and preparation
- Comprehensive orientation
- Policy and professional development curriculum
- Invitations to events around the city
- Mentorship program with Hill staff and alumni
- Access to our alumni networking platform
- Post-program job/internship placement support
Do you or someone you know have questions about the application process or the experience on Capitol Hill? Join us for a CLDP Virtual Open House session and get your questions answered!
