Program Components

Apprenticeships

Public Allies provides full-time, 10-month apprenticeships in nonprofit and public agencies where Allies take responsibility for service delivery in areas such as youth development, health, education, economic development and public safety. We offer Allies the chance to gain "real world" experience in a supportive learning environment.

Leadership Training

Allies receive rigorous leadership training from community leaders, professional consultants, and nonprofit and corporate executives -- helping Allies to develop a wide range of skills, knowledge and abilities. Allies gain experience in communication and critical thinking, appreciation of diversity, ability to resolve conflict, personal accountability, and recognition of community assets.

Team Service Projects

Allies work together to create innovative responses to local community needs through Team Service Projects -- teaching them to mobilize resources in a community and work productively with people from all walks of life.
