Our recruiters travel to colleges and universities throughout the region, as well as metropolitan areas, giving Peace Corps presentations and meeting with people of all ages and stages of life who want to make a direct contribution to humanity, gain unique life experience and inspire others. Peace Corps volunteers make a difference around the globe and bring the benefits of that experience back home. The personal and professional rewards of Peace Corps service last a lifetime.

Peace Corps volunteers share their knowledge, skills and ideas with others who lack educational opportunities to help them sustain quality of life and build a better future for their communities and families. Learn how you can be part of the Peace Corps and show the world a side of America that promotes service, cooperation and peace.
