Before she got to the White House, First Lady Michelle Obama lived some of her happiest times founding Public Allies Chicago in the early '90s
Public Allies 5 core values are 1) Diversity/Inclusion; 2) Collaboration; 3) Continuous Learning; 4) Integrity; and 5) Building on Assets
** Each Public Allies site manages their own recruitment process but use the same application. It is important to reach out to the site(s) that you are interested in applying to and talking with staff about their program and processes.
The multi-level recruitment sounds like Amway for social/political malcontents. I wonder how the money flows... what the ratio is of individual contributions to grants; what’s in it for the various sub-organizers, etc.
