Over the past decade, we have planted the seeds for a future where American Muslim leaders are a critical component to solving the challenges that we face as a society. Our Congressional Leadership Development Program - CLDP, approaching its 8th cohort, places Muslim youth directly in the halls of power in a fully-funded 10-week Hill internship. Our fellows go on to be full-time staffers, work for policy think tanks, and even successfully achieve elected office.
“Working for the United States government is a viable, noble, and respectable career option for our kids and this fellowship program shows them the way.” - Omair Mirza, former senior advisor to Congressman Andre Carson
Investing in the future of our community is a core part of our faith. Through CLDP, we invest in future Muslim leaders for the benefit of our community that will be realized far beyond us - in 10, 20, 30, or even 50 years. But none of it is possible without your generous support.
Empower our youth today to build a future free from bigotry.
