The Team Guardian program is an avenue in which family, friends, NCCC Alumni and others can provide encouragement and positive reinforcement to Corps Members during their term of service, as well as to promote opportunities available after NCCC. Members do have a support system and resources available to them while in the program, but these can be limited so it is an added benefit to have connections and resources outside the program to fill in the gaps.

Members do have a support system and resources available to them while in the program, but these can be limited so it is an added benefit to have connections and resources outside the program to fill in the gaps.
Team Guardians work with their team by:
Sending emails thanking the members for their service
Mailing the team care packages
Helping with resumes and cover letters
Finding out what they want to do with their life after AmeriCorps and providing guidance

Red Cross Observes MLK Day of Service in North Texas
Red Alert
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. once said that we all have to decide whether we “will walk in the light of creative altruism or the darkness of destructive selfishness. Life’s most persistent and nagging question, is, “What are you doing for others?”
