I worked with refugee families and victims of human trafficking. It's a
noble job and a good way to get a taste of the real world in a way to
connect with real people. I hope others will consider AmeriCorps, and be
aware that Darian's promotion is but one component of the federal program.
There are other areas for you to choose from.

Hi Darien
I also am doing an AmeriCorps program--Unfortunately, I'm done
at the end of this month. I help place public defender clients
into drug rehab programs.
I really enjoy it! Has anybody else on here ever done
AmeriCorps? What have you guys done?

Hi all,
I was going through some old files and found a recruitment write-up
i created last year as a member of AmeriCorps, and thought it would
be of good use to all of you amazingly energetic students, that are
wanting to change the world.
Please feel free to pass it on to your friends, and other members
of your local student divisions.
have a great day,
Darian
p.s. feel freee to contact me if you have any questions about
the program.
AmeriCorps *NCCC: 15 years of getting things done!
The national civilian community corps is an AmeriCorps program that
engages youth ages 18 - 24 in team - based community service.
Members come from all over the country to an assigned campus to be
trained on needed skills such as conflict resolution, team building,
CPR and first aid.
Members then get assigned to a team and sent to an area where the
need for service is the greatest; and then starts an opportunity of a
lifetime!
If you are or know a young person who likes to meet new people,
travel, and be a part of a team, then this program is a perfect fit
for you or someone you know!
What else you should know: aside from helping their country,
corps members get a small living allowance, health benefits, and an
education award upon successful completion of the program.
Additionally, the program covers the cost for food and travel, and
insures that members are housed during the 10 months of service.
