Engage in Semester of Service

Semester of Service links prominent national service events - such as Martin Luther King, Jr. Day of Service and Global Youth Service Day - through an extended service-learning framework of at least 70 hours. Young people ages 5-25 spend the “semester” addressing a meaningful community need connected to intentional learning goals and/or academic standards while the teacher or facilitator supports the emergence of “youth voice” as young people guide the process.
