Quaker Voluntary Service

ACTIVITIES: Quaker Voluntary Service is a Fellowship program in which young adults from diverse religious backgrounds between the ages 21-30 build intentional community, work full time at social service and social change agencies, and explore themes of spiritual and personal growth with local Quakers. Fellows receive housing, transportation, food, support for health and wellness (including access to health insurance if needed), and a small stipend, while engaging in regular self-led workshops and retreats that allow for continuing education in social justice, faith, and community building topics.
