AliefVotes Fellows
The AliefVotes Fellowship Program is a year-long intensive for students to receive interactive civic engagement training, leadership opportunities, and unique non-partisan government experiences.
Read about the 2024-2025 fellow bios here. Alief ISD students can apply for the 2025-2026 fellowship in the summer of 2025. Keep an eye out on this page and our social media.
In the fall semester, students receive comprehensive leadership and civic training. In the spring, Fellows are empowered with the resources and budget to organize a community event. No experience is needed.
