    Founded in 1964 by Lyndon B. Johnson, the White House Fellows 
program is one of America's most prestigious programs for leadership 
and public service. White House Fellowships offer exceptional young men 
and women first-hand experience working at the highest levels of the 
federal government.
    Selected individuals typically spend a year working as a full-time, 
paid Fellow to senior White House Staff, Cabinet Secretaries and other 
top-ranking government officials. Fellows also participate in an 
education program consisting of roundtable discussions with renowned 
leaders from the private and public sectors, and trips to study U.S. 
policy in action both domestically and internationally. Fellowships are 
awarded on a strictly non-partisan basis.
