Stoneleigh Fellowship
The Stoneleigh Fellowship offers an opportunity for people with good ideas to act on them. Through this fellowship, we identify and support practitioners, researchers, and policymakers to advance reforms in the systems that serve children at risk of involvement or involved with the child welfare and juvenile justice systems. Yet, we understand that government, community and private systems must work in tandem to effect social change, thus we look for individuals who can “connect the unconnected” through cross-system reforms.
The purpose of the fellowship is to support individuals who will:
- Develop new responses to entrenched or emerging challenges in the child welfare, juvenile justice or allied systems such as health, behavioral health and education
- Identify, validate and disseminate promising programs and practices
- Enrich the knowledge base that informs and affects both public policy and practice
- Improve outcomes and opportunities for disadvantaged children and youth
