The IPHA AmeriCorps Program provides trained, dedicated people to help meet locally identified needs in local health agencies across the state. Members participate in community service through health promotion and outreach for programs serving youth, women, children and families; volunteer coordination; and assistance with community emergency preparedness. The purpose of the AmeriCorps program is for members to gain valuable public health work experience, while host sites and the communities they serve benefit from the services the AmeriCorps members provide.
Members receive a living allowance, education award, professional development and fringe benefits, including health insurance.
