Why Service Years?
Transform Lives
Service years create pathways to opportunity for young people and allow them to develop real-world experience as well as valued professional and leadership skills.
Strengthen Communities
Service years provide cost-effective human capital that can be utilized by local communities to tackle our biggest challenges, like educational equity, disaster response, health, conservation, and more.
Fuel Civic Renewal
Service years bring people together across lines of difference around a shared experience that builds cultural competency and civic engagement.
