Job Description:

BHA is looking for five graduate students to join our part-time 16 week fellowship program!

The BHA envisions a strong, vibrant, and equitable city where every resident can thrive. We foster this vision by providing quality affordable housing, bringing stability, opportunity and peace of mind to thousands of low and moderate income families across the Greater Boston area. As the largest provider of affordable housing in Boston, the BHA seeks to innovate the housing space and center the knowledge and experiences of the households we serve. These households include families with children, older adults, and individuals with disabilities that call BHA communities home.

The BHA Housing Policy Fellowship is a 16 week fellowship program for graduate students interested in developing, implementing, and advancing housing-related policies that will positively impact the lives of public housing residents and Section 8 voucher holders. BHA will be hosting a cohort of five fellows for the Spring of 2027 with potential to extend into the summer.
Fellows may support BHA projects related to resident engagement, sustainability, wealth and asset building, innovative housing models, and more. Each fellow will be working on individual projects, each joining a BHA department and directly reporting to senior BHA staff. All five fellows will be meeting regularly as a cohort with fellowship supervisors Dr. Taylor Cain, Chief of Staff, Dr. Nicholas Kelly, Chief of Innovation & Economic Opportunity, and Maya Harel, Assistant to the Chief of Staff.

Weekly hours will vary between 15-20 hours per week, allowing for flexibility within current school schedule. All fellows must be available on Wednesday or Thursday afternoons from 2:00-4:00pm for in-person weekly check-ins at our downtown Boston office. Upon selection, further coordination will determine the ideal time within this availability for all five fellows.
