The Peace Corps is one of the world's most successful and respected development organizations. Part of the Peace Corps' success is due to the dedicated people who work behind the scenes to support the agency and the thousands of Volunteers serving overseas.

Peace Corps Volunteers are supported by a staff of professional employees who work at the agency's headquarters in Washington, D.C., at our 11 regional recruiting offices, and at our overseas offices. They provide program and medical support, recruit new Peace Corps Volunteers, manage overseas offices, and provide important leadership and administrative services.
