AmeriCorps NCCC Team Leader - Fall 2009
 
 
 
AmeriCorps NCCC (National Civilian Community Corps) is a full-time, team-based residential program for people ages 18-24. Team Leaders apply and are selected to serve at one of five regional campuses, located in Denver, CO; Sacramento, CA; Perry Point, MD; Vinton, IA; and Vicksburg, MS. The mission of AmeriCorps NCCC is to strengthen communities and develop leaders through team-based national and community service. NCCC requires an 11-month commitment of its Team Leaders, who have a demonstrated leadership background and a strong interest and willingness to participate in a national service program. Team Leaders lead teams of 10-12 members who perform service projects throughout the region of their assigned campus. Projects are developed in conjunction with sponsoring organizations and address the most pressing needs in the areas of the environment, education, public safety, unmet human needs, and disaster relief. Teams can expect to complete between 4-6 projects during their term of service. During their term of service, Team Leaders are expected to be the primary point of contact for the team and the program staff. Housing is provided by the NCCC, either at the campus or at the project site. Applications submitted for Team Leader positions in the Fall 2009 cycle will be considered at all of our Fall cycle campuses - North Central, Southwest, and Pacific Region - which all open in September. The Team Leader selection process is handled at the campus level with the North Central, Southwest, and Pacific Region campuses extending offers simultaneously in May.
