NIAC and NIAC Action Academies provide fellowships to connect future leaders with different government offices. We provide dedicated trainings, fellowships, and support for Iranian Americans to successfully run for office, work in Congress and federal agencies, manage political campaigns, and organize our community locally for political change. Our Congressional Fellows will work in the halls of Capitol Hill, while our Organizing Fellows will gain first-hand experience in engaging our communities.
Hi John,
The summer is officially in full swing! NIAC and NIAC Action Academies have hit the ground running. We’re building a pipeline for a new generation of Iranian Americans into elected office and careers in public service.
Both our Congressional and Organization Fellowships have started and we’re so excited to have them on the team. Ariana Amini, our Congressional Fellow, is now in the process of interviewing with her top choices to see which Congressional office she will work in this fall.
Zach, our Organizing Fellow, is working with our New York and New Jersey grassroots chapters to expand their reach and deepen their impact within the Iranian-American community.
Thank you for your support. Your donations fuel our work and will shape the coming years of politics in the U.S.
