About this grant

This grant will provide funds for Furman University to operate the White-Riley-Peterson Policy Institute which brings together a diverse group of 15 emerging leaders from the afterschool and education fields to serve as fellows. Over the course of a year, fellows will be exposed to policy experts, an intensive policy curriculum, and national networking opportunities. Fellows will complete the program being able to positively contribute to the development of policies that support afterschool and summer learning opportunities for children across the country.
