Anthropic launches Claude Corps: $150M fellowship program placing AI-trained workers at nonprofits

Anthropic is launching Claude Corps, a national fellowship program committing $150M to train 1,000 early-career fellows in Claude usage and place them full-time at nonprofits across the US for 12-month stints at $85,000 salaries. The program is structured as a three-way partnership between Anthropic (funding and Claude expertise), CodePath (employer of record and training), and Social Finance (measurement and scaling vehicle). Anthropic frames the initiative as a direct response to AI-driven labor disruption, aiming to both equip nonprofits with AI capabilities and build AI skills in workers absorbing economic change. The $150M initial commitment is positioned as a foundation for a larger, scalable model.
