Welcome to Northeast New York Returned Peace Corps Volunteers. We seek to use our experience to fulfill the third goal of Peace Corps: To educate and inform people here in the US about the countries in which we volunteered.  

We (usually) meet on the first Tuesday of every month (see box on right). We often have a recently returned volunteer share their experience.  

Become a member of our local Return PC group.  Our members span the globe with Peace Corps service and include international friends who share the spirit of  encouraging understanding of world cultures and supporting a world view on topics such as the environment, social justice, and peace.  

If you are interested in serving overseas with Peace Corps, find a PC recruiter here or come to a meeting and chat with us.
