Rebuilding America

from Adam's Interviews Hosted by Adam Greenberg

Service Abroad is Service to the Nation Ken talks to Carrie Hessler-Radelet, the 19th Director of the Peace Corps, about service abroad and whether it is also service to the United States. The Peace Corps is different from most of the other programs we’ve discussed so far on Rebuilding America. Rather than serving fellow Americans, the Peace Corps sends volunteers abroad to serve communities in other countries. Ken talks with Carrie Hessler-Radelet, former Peace Corps Director and current President and CEO of Project Concern International, about international service and the benefits it has back home. The alumni testimonial features Kareen Sanchez and Adam Greenberg, both Peace Corps alumni. https://evergreenpodcasts.com/rebuilding-america/episode-8-service-abroad-is-service-to-the-nation#episodeContent This is a public episode.
