Submit a Stoneleigh Fellowship Application

For Individuals

There are several ways of becoming a Stoneleigh Fellow.

1. We periodically issue Requests for Proposals (RFP) in which we highlight issues we are interested in tackling through the work of a fellow. If you would like to be on our mailing list to receive notice of future RFPs, click here. You might find it useful to read our previous RFPs:
   • 2007: Our first RFP, which describes our general areas of interest
   • 2008: Focused on "multi-system youth"
   • 2009: Focused on children of incarcerated parents
   • 2011: Focus on children and youth growing up in difficult circumstances
2. We invite individuals to apply when we have come across their work and believe that they would fit our goals and mission.
3. We accept letters of interest from individuals interested in sharing their idea with us. Follow these guidelines for submitting a letter of interest.

For Organizations

The Stoneleigh Fellowship is designed to support individuals with both the idea and the capacity to lead social change. Therefore, organizations are not able to apply to the Stoneleigh Fellowship program.

For Government Agencies and Leaders

If you are a City of Philadelphia government leader who has identified a need for cross-system reform in your agency, please contact us to discuss your idea. We have partnered with City of Philadelphia agencies by placing a Stoneleigh Fellow within the city government to act as a connector between agencies. These so-called “Public Policy Fellows”—a subset of our Stoneleigh Fellowship program—have been selected based on needs identified by the City of Philadelphia and therefore represent a slight departure from the usual Stoneleigh Fellowship model.
