The Separation of Church and State

AU is accepting applications for the 2024-25 Youth Organizing Fellowship

  Alicia Johnson

I’m so excited to announce that we’re now accepting applications for AU’s 2024-2025 Youth Organizing Fellowship program!

The Fellowship is an exciting – and paid – opportunity for emerging activists to grow as leaders, build power with a national cohort of youth organizers, and advocate for religious freedom and the separation of church and state.

With AU’s support, the Fellows will:

* Serve as ambassadors for AU and our mission.

* Educate their communities about the importance of church-state separation.

* Plan events and activities to mobilize members of their communities to take action.

Spread the word!

Anyone living in the U.S., including its territories, ages 18-25, is invited to apply today to become an AU Youth Organizing Fellow. The deadline to apply is 11:59 p.m. PT on Sunday, June 30. (And if you’re not eligible, please forward this information to young activists you know or direct them to au.org/youthfellows.)

Americans United will select applicants who are interested in activism and religious freedom, share our values of freedom without favor and equality without exception and have a wide range of experience with advocacy and organizing. The Fellowship kicks off virtually in September 2024, followed by an in-person convening in Washington, D.C., in October and continuing virtually over the course of a year.

Americans United is able to provide these opportunities for our movement’s next generation of leaders because of people like you who support our work. Thank you!

I can’t wait to read the applications!

Congress needs to hear from you!

Urge your legislators to co-sponsor the Do No Harm Act today.

The Do No Harm Act will help ensure that our laws are a shield to protect religious freedom and not used as a sword to harm others by undermining civil rights laws and denying access to health care.
