The American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) announces the fourth
competition for the Leading Edge Fellowship, made possible by the generous
support of The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.

In 2022, the Leading Edge Fellowship program will offer 20 two-year
fellowships partnering recent humanities and interpretive social sciences
PhDs
with organizations advancing social justice and equity in communities across
the United States. The fellowship positions are designed to draw on the
humanistic skills, capacities, and frameworks developed in the course of
earning a PhD in the humanities and interpretive social sciences, as well as
provide a range of networking and career-building opportunities.

In this competition, ACLS will place fellows with 20 participating nonprofit
organizations including the Center for Court Innovation (New York, NY),
Restore Justice (Chicago, IL), and Project Equity (San Francisco, CA). Each
Leading Edge Fellow will receive a $62,500 stipend in the first year, and
$65,000 in the second year, as well as health insurance and professional
development funding. Fellows will join their host organizations to
contribute
to initiatives and projects addressing criminal justice reform and mass
incarceration, racial discrimination and economic inequality, and access to
childcare, food security, and voting rights. The fellows also will
participate
in a variety of professional development and networking activities designed
to
help translate the experiences of their 24-month placements into post-
fellowship career opportunities.

ACLS is now accepting fellowship applications, with applications due by 9pm
EDT on Monday, March 28, 2022. Full information, including application
details, can be found at
