2026-2027 CommNS Community Fellowship: Apply by May 19, 2026

The Center for Community and Nonprofit Studies (CommNS) is excited to open applications for the Community Fellowship, an opportunity for a community practitioner to collaborate with our center.

Through the Community Fellowship, the CommNS seeks a community practitioner to serve as an advisor and participant on our CommNS team, providing meaningful input from the field to inform our programming, and leveraging the opportunity to work with the CommNS to advance their own professional aims.  The Community Fellowship is intended to create an opportunity for the Fellow to advance a project or initiative that can benefit from involvement with the CommNS and support from a student intern.  We are looking for applicants who hold a leadership role in community, nonprofit, mission-based, social innovation, and/or civil society efforts in Wisconsin and who are interested in connecting with and exchanging knowledge with the University and the CommNS.

For further details and instructions for applying to the Community Fellowship, please see our informational document.

We invite our CommNS network to apply and share this opportunity with anyone who may be interested. For any questions, please contact Costanza Generali (cgenerali@wisc.edu) and Mary Beth Collins (marybeth.collins@wisc.edu).
