What is Youth Volunteer Corps?
Youth Volunteer Corps (YVC) is a program which works to create and increase volunteer
opportunities to enrich America’s youth, address community needs, and develop
a lifetime commitment to service.

What does the Youth Volunteer Corps do?
YVC participants engage in service projects throughout the year that are challenging,
rewarding, educational, and serve unmet needs of the community. The YVC program
also promotes a greater understanding and appreciation for the diversity of the community.

Fundamental Components:
First launched in 1986, the cost-effective YVC model has since been established in
communities nationwide. Programs are sponsored by such diverse community-based
organizations as Volunteer Centers, the YMCA, United Way, school districts, and municipalities.
While each local community’s YVC program is tailored to meet unique community needs,
the program consists of two fundamental components:

Types of Projects
Tutoring elementary students, serving meals to homeless, assisting at child care programs
and summer camps, trail construction and restoration, leading activities with seniors, removing
graffiti and painting murals, cleaning up parks and neighborhoods, and many, many more!

 


We are currently recruiting YVC interns!
