Established in 2006, the House Fellows Program brings together secondary education teachers of American history and government for a week-long intensive institute on the history and practice of the House of Representatives. Each component of the House Fellows Program is designed to help educators improve their knowledge and understanding of the “People’s House.”
Fellows participate in insider briefings by the National Archives, Library of Congress, Congressional Research Service and Architect of the Capitol. They also have the chance to meet their Member’s of Congress and hear from guest speaker Members of the House who offer unique perspectives and insights into the inner operations of the House. The program takes place during various weeks during the summer, particularly when the House is in session voting on key bills.
The Office of the House Historian has begun preparations for the summer 2010. We are happy to announce 30 districts are selected for this upcoming program. Below is a listing of the selected 30 districts for summer 2010. Participating Congressional Districts are chosen by seniority. If you wish to learn more about the House Fellows Program for 2010, or if you have any questions, feel free to call us at 202-226-5525 or email at historian@mail.house.gov.
