The 53 full-time and 10 minimum-time members also encourage the community to support these efforts through volunteerism. AmeriCorps members serve community organizations and schools throughout southern Wayne County to provide assistance in a number of child development issues. Members serve 3,000 clients in the areas of youth, family and community development. Members will also recruit 800 volunteers who will serve approximately 8,200 hours for weekly community service projects.
