The TICAS MI Student Advocacy Fellowship program is a grant-based fellowship opportunity for students on postsecondary paths in MI. It is also a great opportunity for the TICAS MI team to work alongside students from across the great state of Michigan in higher education policy.
This program is designed to work with students from a multitude of backgrounds to provide training on how to engage in the policy process on state-level policy issues. The students will also learn to foster the importance of community and student voice while demonstrating the importance of their inclusion in the policy decision making process. Each cohort of students will spend the summer months engaged in policy training from experts across the country and the state of MI. Using what they learned in training, they will identify a higher education policy issue they would like to champion on behalf of MI students by engaging in research, coalition/support building, communication strategy development, and legislative advocacy.
We are proud to announce the 2024-25 TICAS MI Student Advocacy Fellows.
