City Year Providence's Executive Director, Jennie Johnson, shares about why she serves and what she wants incoming AmeriCorps Members to know about their year of service. First-year Corps Members Christine AuCoin and Drew Chittick also share what they wish they knew about service before City Year.

Hannah sits down with Kat Towery to learn about a day in the life of an AmeriCorps Member serving in a Providence Middle School.

First-Year AmeriCorps Member Lizz Ladd joins Hannah to share what a day in the life serving at one of City Year PVD's Partner Elementary Schools looks like. 

Hannah chats with Regina Sarpong, Development and Communications Manager for CYPVD, about what it means to be well while serving. They cover topics like seasonal depression, comfort & joy, and the importance of routine. 

Hannah has a conversation with entrepreneur, activist, and AmeriCorps Member Experience Manager for CYPVD, Dayna Altman. Together, they explore the City Year value of Ubuntu and its larger themes of connection, vulnerability, and being in community without losing oneself in giving to others.

AmeriCorps Members and staff at City Year Providence share their favorite PITWs, which help us put idealism to work in our service to students and our community.

Hannah sits down with City Year Providence's Learning & Development Manager, Alysa Hemcher, to discuss the CY value of Level Five Leadership and how that shows up in City Year's work.

City Year Providence's Chief of Staff, Christina Cotto, and Development Director, Theresa Dougherty, kick off this series with host Hannah Little to discuss the evolution of the organization. From performing jumping jacks downtown to supporting students in the classroom, we explore how City Year moved through phases 1.0, 2.0, and how City Year 3.0 will shape the future of our work.
