At a moment when our citizens are more divided than ever, service year programs like AmeriCorps, the Peace Corps, Teach for America, and YouthBuild bring Americans together in common purpose to tackle pressing challenges and transform their own lives. Please join Service Year Alliance’s Washington, D.C. chapter Monday, October 30th, 6:30 at Bier Baron for a Service Story Slam and learn about the impact service has on individuals, communities, and the country.

If you are interested in getting on stage and telling us your story, please consider coming to our story telling training, being held on October 16 at the Mt. Pleasant Library at 7:00PM. Please sign up here: https://goo.gl/FSEqd3 

Millions of lives have been transformed by national service, yet funding for service year opportunities is under threat. Join us at this critical moment to celebrate service year programs and the men and women who serve. All are welcome and encouraged to attend. While this event is free, please RSVP (http://about.serviceyear.org/service_story_slam2_0) so we know how many people to expect.
