AmeriCorps in Alabama
Alabama
currently has seven AmeriCorps*State programs which are located
in various locations across the state. The programs are
monitored by the Governor’s Office of Faith-Based and Community
Initiatives. AmeriCorps programs, termed the domestic Peace Corps, focus on mentoring & tutoring students of all ages,
providing a safe place for students after school and during the
summer, bridging the digital divide in rural areas, and
emergency preparedness and response.
There is an advantage for
the AmeriCorps members as well as the communities in which they
serve. Members of AmeriCorps receive real-life education and
service experience wrapped up into one. They learn teamwork,
effective communication, leadership, responsibility and more.
Members experience the satisfaction of taking on challenges and
seeing positive results. AmeriCorps members have the experience
of a lifetime getting things done for their community.
