Okay, wise and mighty FList, does anyone know about AmeriCorps? There is a job I would like through them. Anyone served? Is this a bad idea? I know nothing about them at all.
The folks I know who have done AmeriCorps have really loved the experience. In more recent years though, you have less control over where you go. It used to be that they have a list of places that need your skills, and you pick. Now they just send you. If you are okay with that kind of unknowing.
Teach for America can be done by it's own right. Again, you have limited ability to request where you go, but people I know who have done it, have loved it. I have seriously considered applying with them when I graduate in May.
See, I'd need to be able to be guaranteed to know where I was going, with the whole house/husband/grandfather thing. Much like the teaching overseas thing, I can't really pack up and go anywhere anymore.
I think I may end up emailing the woman for more information or the Americorps site itself.
