Information about the fellowships program and the online application materials can be found on the Early Childhood Learning and Knowledge Center (ECLKC) at http://eclkc.ohs.acf.hhs.gov/hslc.

Through these fellowships, outstanding leaders in the early childhood community have the opportunity to gain first-hand experiences that offer a national perspective into the operations of ACF and other federal agencies serving children and families. In addition to work assignments, the Fellows will participate in professional education and leadership development programs.
