The San Jose Impact Community is led by the office of the Mayor. San Jose, known as the “City of Innovation,” at the local government level, has developed several new service year programs to address local community needs over the years. Unmet community needs are identified from the city plan and the Chief Service Officer works with the mayor to identify the needs that can be met through national service. The latest include a Climate Action Corps and a Resilience Corps to help the community address climate resiliency and wildfire prevention and respond to the pandemic more broadly. San Jose is working to build connections to career and educational pathways after service.
