AmeriCorps Site Supervisor of the Month – July 2026: Kendall Casey, AC READY
Kendall Casey is the Program Director and Site Supervisor for the AmeriCorps Volunteers serving with the AmeriCorps READY (AC READY) program. The AC READY program is administered by Wayne State University. AmeriCorps Volunteers serving with the AC READY program educate citizens and engage them in efforts to improve climate change resiliency through identification and intervention of indoor and outdoor environmental hazards, improvement of residential energy efficiency, implementation of green infrastructure, and clean water and air stewardship opportunities. Activities include community outreach and engagement, green infrastructure installation and demonstration, healthy home assessments, and resident education.
Casey has always been passionate about community service and sought opportunities to give back. After graduating from the University of Michigan-Dearborn, Casey wanted to take time to serve her community. From 2011 to 2012 she served as an AmeriCorps Urban Safety Project team member, and at the conclusion of her year of service was immediately hired by the Center to help continue their work. She later went on to serve as the Program Coordinator of the AmeriCorps Urban Safety program from 2021-2023. Since 2023, Casey has been the AC READY Program Director and Site Supervisor.
Current AmeriCorps Volunteer Courtney Waddell notes that Casey excels at understanding and acting on AmeriCorps Volunteers’ development needs, ensuring active participation during tasks and training, and explaining concepts clearly for all comprehension levels. Courtney emphasizes Casey’s commitment to the AmeriCorps mission and her ability to help others understand and embrace it stating, “she empowers team members to grow by recognizing individual strengths, encouraging stepping out of comfort zones for personal and collective benefit, and modeling effective communication, reliability, and practical support.” As a site supervisor, Casey embodies the values and goals of AmeriCorps who leads with dedication and impact.
Casey continues to improve communities and help advance her AmeriCorps Volunteers’ commitment to service and professional growth as the Program Director at AC READY.
