The National Italian American Foundation (NIAF) Congressional Fellowship Program places outstanding Italian American college students and recent graduates in offices of members and associates of the Italian American Congressional Delegation (IACD) to educate and support the next generation of Italian American leadership.
Upon acceptance to the program by NIAF and a successful interview with a Congressional office, NIAF will award fellows with a stipend of $1,500 during the course of their fellowship.
