The Economic Security Project (ESP) is seeking a Long Term Care (LTC) Fellow to build out a new body of work situating long-term care within ESP’s broader affordability agenda. This is a half-time, two-year fellowship, estimated 20 hours a week of work, for someone who wants to develop original policy research and help shape a growing area of ESP’s platform.
The Fellow will map the long-term care policy landscape, author a flagship policy paper connecting LTC to ESP’s affordability framework, and help integrate long-term care into existing campaigns. They will help advise ESP on important matters related to LTC and work to build LTC into the current landscape of economic priorities. Over the course of the fellowship, the Fellow will build relationships with coalition partners, contribute to a major convening on long-term care and the health reform fight, and produce a second, campaign-facing research product in year two.
