<p>Are you looking for a chance to improve your skills and expand your world? Indian Country Today has a new fellowship for journalists to join our staff from one to three months. We are looking for editors, reporters and producers who now work for tribal media (radio stations, video stations or programs, newspapers, or magazines). The idea is you will work for us for a few weeks and your stories would be posted by Indian Country Today (as well as your tribal media outlet). The idea is to gain experience in Washington, reporting first-hand about how public policy is developed and how it impacts a tribal community. Then you will return to your regular job with new contacts and skills.</p>
