Dear Virginia Housing Partners,
 
As you know, Virginia Housing is launching a new Fellows Program, open to those interested in pursuing leadership opportunities in the affordable housing industry. I am excited to announce that we have posted the positions and are going to start recruiting.
 
We will also need your help getting the word out about this opportunity.  Attached is a one-page description of the program you can share and a link for additional information and the application at Two-Year Fellows Program | Virginia Housing. The Fellows Program is not an internship, but rather a full-time, salaried role at Virginia Housing. Fellows will spend the next two years working alongside creative problem solvers and innovators in the affordable housing industry if accepted. They will gain hands-on experience working on real projects, and developing industry knowledge, leadership, and analytical skills.
 
We’re looking for emerging leaders: people who are innovative, visionary, analytical, lifelong learners — and excited about our affordable housing mission. They may have a wide range of skills, education, and backgrounds, but all will share our deep commitment to supporting affordable housing. Virginia Housing is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Further, we encourage applicants from diverse backgrounds and traditionally underrepresented communities to apply. The Virginia Housing Fellows Program is limited to four positions, so we urge applicants to apply as soon as possible.  We will accept applications until positions are filled, or until the application deadline of March 31, 2023. The successful Fellows will commence employment June 5, 2023.
 
Thank you for your guidance on the development of this important initiative. We are counting on you to help us spread the word.
With regards,

Susan F. Dewey
Chief Executive Officer
Virginia Housing
