*Hosts that are participants in the LGMF, but prefer to accept direct applications. Links to application page are available on their website, or the ICMA Job Center if posted there. These positions may have different posting and filling dates than the LGMF cycle. The average number of Fellows placed over the last few years has been between 34-45, so the number of hosts listed above does not reflect all the placement opportunities this year.
