Cahn Fellows Program

Cahn Fellows Program

Since 2016, the Cahn Fellows Programs has provided a yearlong national leadership development opportunity with a curated curriculum delivered by faculty at Teachers College, Columbia University and distinguished guest presenters. Fellows design and implement leadership projects in their schools with guidance from professors and practitioners. Each Fellow chooses an “Ally”—a member of the school community whom they cultivate for leadership—to participate alongside them. Fellows and allies participate in sessions that develop their personal growth, professional leadership and stakeholder engagement. At the end of the Fellowship, Fellow/Ally/school community teams present their school-based projects at the Cahn Fellows Annual Leadership Conference.
