FUSE Corps
FUSE is a national nonprofit dedicated to increasing the capacity of local governments to engage communities, advance racial equity, and work more effectively for everyone. We believe, as communities adapt to constantly evolving challenges, that economic advancement and narrowing racial disparities is not only possible, but achievable.
FUSE was founded in 2011 by a group of leaders from the public, private, and social sectors. They designed an executive fellowship-based model to accelerate community-based problem-solving.
Our Vision
A country free from the social and economic barriers to opportunities that have been perpetuated by a history of systemic and institutionalized racism.
The right person, in the right place, at the right time.
Our work centers on an Executive Fellowship model that places experienced leaders in local government agencies nationwide. During their year-long fellowship, they work to closely align the public, private, and social sectors to remove barriers and advance solutions to pressing challenges.
We work within government agencies because cities and counties have the power to affect systemic change directly.
Each year, 90% of communities that host FUSE Executive Fellows return with requests for additional fellowship projects.
Careers at FUSE
Think locally, drive change nationally.
The FUSE team is passionate about helping local governments and communities tackle their most entrenched challenges. Our work is guided by our commitment to addressing systemic and institutionalized racism, and expanding social and economic opportunities for entire communities.
Our staff works primarily on a remote basis and we seek colleagues from a wide array of backgrounds who reflect the communities we serve.
