Density Map

Looking for housing?
 
We used address data to map where our members tend to live and measure their relative concentrations by zip code. Drag your mouse over an area for an exact count. Use the controls in the upper right hand corner to blur or sharpen the image. Note that Columbia Heights and Mt. Pleasant have the greatest numbers. We are also making inroads in the Southeast, Alexandria, and Vienna areas. 
 
Our Facebook Group is a popular destination for RPCVs seeking tenants and new arrivals looking for a place to live.

We hold various events throughout the year that transcend our typical social, professional, or community service activities. Three stand out in particular:

Annual Holiday Party and Silent Auction (December) 

Wreath Laying Ceremony for John F. Kennedy (May)

Summer Barbecue (June/July)


RPCV/W also plays a major role in commemorating key anniversaries of the Peace Corps. In September of 2011, RPCV/W planned, funded, and implemented a two-hour ceremony at the Arlington National Cemetery Memorial Amphitheater, which was attended by over 5,000 and included a march of flags across the Memorial Bridge and into the National Mall.  

Overseeing all of this is our Special Events Director, who can be contacted at [email protected], if you would like to help with planning or volunteer your services at a particular event.

Dear Profdev...

Have a burning professional development question? Feel free to email us the question at [email protected] we will track down the answer and publish it here and in the newsletter. 

Feel free to peek at old entries, maybe we've already answered your question.

Join Our Linkedin Group 

Click the picture below to join our Linkedin group. If you would like some advice or have a job to share, please contact our Professional Development Director. We also invite all members to join our Mentorship Program.

Facebook_Thumbnail_Linkedin.pngAny RPCV should be able to spare 15 minutes to meet with another RPCV who is interested in pursuing a similar career path. 

This philosophy guides our private Linkedin group, where we post jobs, advertise specialized events and pose general questions.

Unlike our Facebook Group, much of the action here goes on behind the scenes. Many use it to arrange informational interviews through private messages. All members of the group are expected to entertain informational requests from qualified job seekers. 

Once inside, click the Members tab to search group participants by job title or organization. You may also pose general questions in the Discussion section, but typically a direct ask more productive. The rules are as follows:

What you can post:

  • Job openings and internship opportunities from reputable employers. Please delete your post once the position has been filled.
  • Free networking events, job fairs, or public events of interest to job-seeking, Washington-area RPCVs.
  • Requests for informational interviews from RPCVs working in specific sectors, agencies, industries or regions.

What you can't post:

  • Anything involving fundraising, unless your organization is sponsored by RPCV/W as its current Partner for Peace.
  • Any "opportunity" requiring payment or purchase.
  • Requests for donations to Peace Corps projects abroad.
  • Housing requests and offers. Take them to the Facebook group

Upcoming Events

RSVP for all of our upcoming professional development events on the events page.
