Urban Alliance on Race Relations (UARR) established the Policy Youth Fellowship program with an aim to improve Black and/or Muslim youth’s access to employment and opportunities around the Greater Toronto Hamilton Area in four sectors: the Arts, Environment, Legal, and Public Policy/Government. UARR has developed partnerships to establish placements where Fellow’s support policy work (including advocacy and organizing) and gain exposure to the Arts sector while building organizational capacity.
