NPCA's Continuation of Service program

Welcome to the NPCA’s Continuation of Service program!

The Peace Corps community furthers the ideals of the Third Goal: “strengthen Americans’ understanding about the world and its peoples.” We do this through continued service and by supporting Peace Corps initiatives.

The NPCA Continuation of Service program connects you with groups, organizations, and advocacy efforts to amplify our social impact. Utilizing the NPCA/GivePulse platform, you can find events, volunteer opportunities, and organizations that align with Peace Corps values.

This program taps into the power of the global Peace Corps network. Whether you served in the 1960s or 2000s, the NPCA Continuation of Service program facilitates volunteerism at any life stage, helping RPCVs create lasting social impact and foster interconnected communities.

It’s part of a broader movement dedicated to positive change. Volunteering builds stronger communities and a brighter future. Your involvement shapes a world continually defined by service and compassion, embodying Peace Corps values.

NPCA frequently partners with organizations eager to leverage the skills and experience of the Returned Peace Corps Volunteer (RPCV) community. We are proud to establish relationships with local, regional, national, and international aid organizations and other partners. The Continuation of Service program offers volunteer opportunities for everyone, starting with in-person opportunities and expanding to support continued service across the country.

These partnerships enable us to direct the unique expertise and passion of RPCVs into projects and initiatives that benefit from their experience, cross-cultural fluency, language skills, and technical abilities. RPCVs are invaluable assets to volunteer organizations, enhancing our collective capacity to create meaningful change in the U.S., just as we have done globally since Sargent Shriver’s call to Serve, Serve, Serve.

We invite you to take action today. Join today and harness the opportunity to volunteer with other local and national organizations and travel abroad to share your expertise.

This is how RPCVs show up, honor what we hold dear, and continue to build on the Peace Corps ideals and strengths anywhere we live.
