    Description

    Break A Difference’s (B•A•D) mission is to strategically engage individuals and institutions through service to make positive impacts in communities and in those who serve. As a nonprofit, we accomplish this by engaging corporations in large-scale service projects, preparing skilled leaders to serve on nonprofit boards, expanding the volunteer service capacity for nonprofits, and partnering with organizations to engage college students in week-long immersive service trips, otherwise known as Alternative Breaks. Our "From: Baltimore" initiative is preparing to revolutionize the social impact sector, activating and empowering underrepresented Black and Brown youth and building teams of future community leaders who will galvanize the social impact industry. "From: Baltimore" achieves this while specifically addressing core community problems and inequities in Baltimore City neighborhoods.

    The Community Action Fellows are responsible for supporting From: Baltimore programs and volunteer events. Community Action Fellows are expected to be able to convey to others what it means to be an AmeriCorps member serving in an AmeriCorps program and the impact of housing blight in Baltimore, Maryland. This role demands excellent communication skills, a dedication to equity and inclusion, and the ability to manage outreach efforts and engage youth effectively.
