>> 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.
