ADVISORY COUNCIL

The advisory council assists with and advises on the overall development and implementation of the program.  The council includes representatives from community-based agencies, academic institutions, the philanthropic community, and former Schweitzer Fellows. Council members participate in the selection of Fellows, often advise on the community placement of Fellows, and work with the program director to plan future programmatic steps.
