Get Your Policy On

Two opportunities are available for those looking to get their feet wet in the world of progressive public policy.

First, DMI Scholars, the summer training program created by the Drum Major Institute for Public Policy is now accepting applications for its summer 2008 program. DMI is one of the premier progressive policy shops, doing really innovative work, especially around the middle class. This is the second year their youth training program is in operation, and spots are limited, so I'd get cracking now. For info on the program and last year's crop of trainees, check out the video below.

Second, the Roosevelt Institution, the nation's only progressive, student-run think tank is now accepting submission for its 2008 policy journal. You can find guidelines for submissions here.
