The professional learning opportunity celebrates the legacy of Betsy Dubovsky, the foundation\u2019s first executive director, whose roots in social work inspired her passion for community service. The program was established in 2022, after Dubovsky\u2019s death.<\/p>\n

The deadline for the 2026-2027 Staten Island Foundation Elizabeth Dubovsky Fellowship in Social Work is Friday, Feb. 2.<\/p>\n
Fellows must be residents of Staten Island, but don\u2019t have to attend a local school. <\/p>\n
If a student has a home address on Staten Island but dorms at a school off Staten Island, as long as they commit to serving the internship at a non-profit on Staten Island, they would qualify. <\/p>\n
Applicants may be undergraduate or graduate students. <\/p>\n
Through the fellowship, the foundation will support students in their otherwise unpaid internship that is required for their degree. <\/p>\n
Fellows will also attend virtual monthly sessions hosted by the foundation with local professionals, helping fellows build career networks and learn about community challenges addressed by the social work field. <\/p>\n
The fellowship aims to be a valuable professional learning opportunity for local aspiring social workers. <\/p>\n
