Helping Develop Youth Peace Corps

The Jewish Fund, the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit and the
United Jewish Foundation of Metropolitan Detroit have teamed up with other
key organizations to develop a youth peace corps for the city of Detroit.
In partnership with the Kresge Foundation, which developed the City Year
Project in Detroit, the Jewish groups will sponsor a "City Year Youth Team" to
develop strategies for addressing social service and health needs in Detroit.
Team members will spend a year of community service at agency sites through-
out the metro area.
The program, which originated in Boston 10 years ago, has grown to
involve 900 participants in 10 cities around the country.
The program is designed to develop leadership skills and good citizenship
among young adults from a spectrum of socioeconomic backgrounds. Skills
and interests of youth will be matched with social service agencies that can
benefit from assistance.
