Supervision
Students are supervised by a professional at the host organization. The DLI Director also meets with each student on a weekly basis for the first half of the summer. A performace check-in will occur at the midpoint of the fellowship to ensure expectations are being met by all parties.

Visits include a tour of the organization, presentations by organizational leaders, and conversations about the professional world. Virtual site visits occur occassionally.
