The Washington Bus is a statewide movement building organization that increases political access and participation for young people across Washington State and develops the next generation of young leaders.
We have great opportunities coming up for young people who want to learn more about political organizing and want to improve their leadership and professional skills.
Students can also get involved with our paid Fellowship program. Washington Bus fellows spend 10 weeks in the Summer learning about social justice, political, and community building. The fellowship is paid and located in Seattle. Fellows spend the summer learning state-of-the-art campaign management, grassroots organising, public policy formulation, and leadership skills.
We accept applicants from all levels of experience who have a passion for creating positive changes in their communities. The priority deadline is March 23rd and the final decisions deadline is April 20th. You can find the application here.
We would appreciate the opportunity to visit your classroom and give a 5 minute presentation on the Washington Bus and the fellowship. I was a fellow in 2016 and the experience helped me shape my degree and learn valuable skills I could use in and outside of college. We will be at UW on Monday, March 26. Please let me know if you have time for us to speak with your department.
