Center For Family Services - PowerCorps Camden
 
 
 
PowerCorps members work with city partners to tackle pressing environmental challenges. Projects aim to improve stormwater management, clean and green vacant lots, improve community space and parks for Camden's young people, and revitalize public land in the city. PowerCorps Camden, including crew leaders and assistant crew leaders, serves as a system of support and encouragement to help members stay focused and motivated. Upon completion of the six-month term of service, members join the PowerCorps alumni and receive intensive transition support in order to assist with post-secondary education, continuing national service, and/or securing meaningful work in career-related fields.
