It's a chance to apply your skills and ideals toward helping others and meeting critical needs in the community. National Direct AmeriCorps members lead volunteer teams on every single house that we build and repair; VISTA members pave the way for future growth and service to more families.
Habitat Long Island is proud to host several AmeriCorps volunteers each year, encouraging service-learning while improving our programs and community. Each year, Habitat Long Island recruits individuals to spend a year of service with us.
