BE AN ADVOCATE
The BJC Fellows
BJC Fellows come from diverse educational, professional and religious backgrounds to learn in an intensive education program that equips them for advocacy to protect religious liberty.
Since 2015, BJC has offered the BJC Fellows Program, providing young professionals the opportunity to deepen their historical, theological and legal understanding of religious liberty and develop skills to advocate for the cause throughout their careers.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, BJC Fellows accepted for the class of 2020 will go through training in 2021. We will next accept BJC Fellows applications in fall of 2021, which will be for the class of 2022.




Meet the BJC Fellows

“Religious liberty is about so much more than simply allowing people to worship. It’s about their fundamental right to exist — to be human.”
Brent Newberry / 2018 BJC Fellow

“As a BJC Fellow, I have access to resources, experiences, and a network in which I too can respond and advocate for the protection of religious liberty for all.”
Erika Perez / 2018 BJC Fellow

“What the BJC Fellows Seminar taught me, more than anything else, is the dynamism and intricacy of lived Christianity in the United States.”
Sofi Hersher / 2017 BJC Fellow
