An AmeriCorps program, Public Allies identifies young people with a passion for making a difference and teaches them to turn that passion into a career through its 10-month apprenticeship program. Allies apprentice at Phoenix-area nonprofit organizations and are paid a monthly stipend. Allies also participate in leadership development, which is delivered by community leaders, practitioners, and educators. During training, students take part in bi-weekly skill training and leadership-development seminars and receive feedback, opportunities for reflection, and personal coaching.
