QUAKER VOLUNTARY SERVICE IS…
An 11-month experiment, living at the intersection of transformational spirituality and activism. Young adults work full-time in professional positions at community based organizations addressing a wide range of issues, while living in a cooperative house and worshiping with, and being mentored by, local Quakers. Fellows receive housing, transportation, food, support for health and wellness (including access to health insurance if needed), and a small stipend, while engaging in regular self-led workshops and retreats that allow for continuing education in social justice, faith, and community building topics.
We hope you are able to attend one or both of these events. If not, please reach out to Zenaida at recruitment@quakervoluntaryservice.org and she is happy to meet with you one on one!
