The Rural Futures Institute (RFI) at the University of Nebraska is seeking highly-motivated students and passionate community leaders to increase their inclusive leadership capacity while creating the future of Nebraska’s rural communities through workforce development, economic development, recruitment and retention of residents, access and more.
Deemed RFI Fellows, selected students and community innovators will join forces for 10 weeks during summer 2020 to make significant progress on strategic community initiatives and priority projects while immersing themselves in 1-to-1 inclusive leadership coaching with the University of Nebraska’s Helen Fagan, Ph.D.
Students will live, work and serve in the community they are focused on, and community innovators will invite them into the life of rural Nebraska.
Details and applications for the experience are at ruralfutures.nebraska.edu/fellows. The deadline to apply is Oct. 17, 2019, and informational webinars are scheduled for Oct. 3 (students).
