The Russell Sage Foundation is pleased to announce the establishment of a Visiting Journalist Fellowship for projects related to the Foundation's mission of the "improvement of social and living conditions in the United States." The growth of economic inequality and its consequences, inequities in educational achievement and attainment, the social, political and economic impacts of immigration, and recent racial tensions over urban policing, are all examples of topics addressed by journalists that are central to RSF’s core programs.

Visiting Journalists will have an opportunity to work in residence at the Foundation for a period of 1-3 months and to interact with resident Visiting Scholars who might help inform the development of their projects.

The Foundation is now accepting Visiting Journalist applications for the 2016-17 year, with a deadline of September 1, 2015 at 11:59pm EST.
