Do you want to make an impact in your community, your country and the world? Come learn about opportunities to serve with AmeriCorps and the Peace Corps at the School of Public Policy's first-ever Service Panel. This event will feature six AmeriCorps and Peace Corp alumni—now current MPP students—who will share what drew them to service, how their service experiences have shaped their careers, and why they recommend these opportunities to fresh graduates. The panel will be facilitated by Susannah Washburn, former senior advisor for the AmeriCorps federal agency and SPP professor.
Panelists will speak about their experiences with Teach for America, National Civilian Community Corps, Utah Refugee Education and Training Center, College Possible, Peace Corps Fiji and Peace Corps Timor-Leste.
We highly encourage undergraduates and BA/MPP students to attend this event.

They build relationships, exchange knowledge, and help transform lives for generations.
