What is AmeriCorps?
The Boys and Girls Clubs of Palm Beach County AmeriCorps Program believes that each person is capable of excellence. Everyone has talents, strengths, and skills that make us unique and valuable. We all face challenges that must be overcome through hard work and dedication. As we work to improve the lives of others, each of us will grow and change in amazing ways. It is our responsibility to ensure that we are constantly striving toward excellence. AmeriCorps is also a valuable pipeline to careers in education, nonprofit, and public service.
