About the Clinton Community Fellows Program

The Clinton Community Fellows Program is a ten-week fellowship program running from June 14 to August 16 that provides young leaders from Clinton County, Ohio the opportunity to develop valuable skills and experience in a rural, small-city environment. The program recruits and matches young, locally-connected talent with the needs of local businesses with interest in implementing innovative business development strategies. Under the supervision and mentorship of the program's founding partners—the Clinton County Regional Planning Commission, and Energize Clinton County—the Fellows work on a project basis with business partners to provide additional business development capacity to assist local businesses in achieving their strategic objectives.

In addition to the hands-on business development experience, Fellows take part in networking, volunteer projects, and other community-oriented activities to help them make connections and identify opportunities for long-term employment in the community.
