Graduated?

This could be the position for you!

The Shriver Center's Choice Program is currently recruiting for  several AmeriCorps Community Service Learning Fellowships opening throughout the Greater Baltimore region. 

The Choice Program is a community-based, family-centered case management approach to delinquency prevention and youth development. Focusing on providing support in at-risk environments, The Choice Program empowers youth and engages families through a multitude of services adapted to individual needs. The program seeks to foster resiliency in young people by promoting protective factors to mitigate risk in their daily lives.  This is accomplished through a number of initiatives, to include Intensive Advocacy, Choice Education, and Choice Jobs.

This transformative experience is a year-long, with opportunities to explore  education, employment, health, law, and policy.  Several UMBC alums currently serve with The Choice Program (and have served in the past).
