AmeriCorps Service Year Opportunity

[PSYCFWD]

Hey Students!

Hands of Hope AmeriCorps is currently accepting applications for the September 2024-August 2025 service year. 

The AmeriCorps service year opportunity includes, caring for infants and children up to age six who are at risk for abuse and neglect in Houston, TX. Hands of Hope AmeriCorps Members will serve these vulnerable children throughout a 12-month commitment, living in a private, gated community (at no cost) and receiving a living allowance.

Hands of Hope AmeriCorps Members will work collaboratively with other AmeriCorps Members in the home to ensure that children’s physical, emotional, and mental needs are met. While the commitment to our organization is only one year, the impact AmeriCorps Members have on the children in their care is lifelong. In turn, the children’s strength, resilience, and love will also make a lifelong impact on them. Snapshots and insights from some current AmeriCorps Members are included to provide first-hand perspectives on the program.
