COMMUNICATION PROGRAMS
Communication Fellows
The National Grange Communication Fellows Program is a year-long, cohort-based training experience designed to prepare Grange members to communicate effectively in a modern, digital-first media landscape. Selected Fellows will receive hands-on training in digital storytelling, social media strategy, podcasting, video interviews, live digital engagement, and brand stewardship, as well as general written articles and other methods, while actively contributing to National Grange communication efforts throughout the year.
From day one, Fellows are embedded in the National Grange process, learning how national messaging is developed, approved, and deployed, and how grassroots stories and voices move from local Granges to a national platform. A cohort of 4-5 Fellows will be chosen each year.
The program culminates with Fellows attending the National Grange Convention, where they will apply their skills in real time as on-site communicators and brand ambassadors.
