A Unique Catholic Social Teaching Opportunity
With the Sr. Carol Coston, OP Fellowship, NETWORK honors the legacy of Sister Carol Coston, an Adrian Dominican Sister (OP) by providing a paid opportunity for students to participate in NETWORK’S advocacy at the federal level, as we work to achieve an inclusive, multiracial, multi-faith democracy. The fellowship awards students with a position in a learning community of young justice seekers for one academic year.
Coston Fellows form a nationwide community of student leaders organizing to advance NETWORK’s policy agenda at Catholic colleges and universities.
