About the Public Service Fellowship Program

The WRCOG Public Service Fellowship Program is a professional development opportunity to provide undergraduate, graduate students, and recent graduates hands-on work experience in local agencies throughout Western Riverside County. The goal of the Program is to invest in the future local workforce, particularly in the public sector, to combat the outflow of talent from our local Universities upon graduation. The Fellowship Program is an opportunity for students to prepare for fulltime employment in local government careers that help enrich the communities they live in. The Program began in 2016 with 14 Fellows. Since 2016, there have been five rounds of the Program and a total of 75 WRCOG Fellows.
