The Americorps gets things done.

You probably know Hands On Atlanta as the volunteer hub of the city, right? When you want to do something good, you give us a look. But, did you know we also run one of the largest Americorps programs in the south?

This week we kicked of our 2018 Americorps class, hosting 28 members for a week of learning and inspiration. These changemakers will each serve over 1700 hours inside and outside of the classroom at  5 Title 1 partner schools and 1 Centers of Hope. They'll be hands, helping over 1,000 elementary children with math, literacy and social emotional learning (SEL).
