Module

Building Better Government with New Talent


Author: Anne Kim, Tess Stovall and Kirsten Harbers
In The Middle Class Program

Abstract

This module proposes a new public service scholarship to attract highly skilled young people to careers in the federal government.

Description

The government plays an essential role in Americans’ everyday lives, but many federal workers are very close to retirement with few young people entering government service to fill the gap. Today, young people tend to choose private sector jobs over public service. A new public service scholarship would raise awareness of careers in the government and attract top-notch talent to replace the aging workforce. This module lays out the problem of the graying of the federal government, outlines how to respond and provides suggestions to roll out your plan to the public.
