Peace Corps Week
Media Outreach

The Peace Corps Press Office wants to help you promote your Peace Corps outreach activity to your hometown media during Peace Corps Week and throughout the year. Below are resources to assist you.

Promote Your Event or Presentation with a Press Release

If you are participating in an event or speaking to a group and you feel it worthy of media attention, please fill out a press release form and send to your local media to call attention to your event. You can also contact the Peace Corps Regional Public Affairs Specialist in your area for support in publicizing your local event. You can also receive guidance by contacting the Peace Corps Press Office. In your phone call or e-mail, please provide the "who, what, where, when, why, and how" of the event.
