We seek to place civic-minded, passionate leaders at those nonprofits which have been adversely impacted by COVID-19 and provide critical services in the areas of food security, anti-poverty services, and/or housing.

Become a Service Site

ConnectiCorps Service sites are nonprofits that provide services in food security, housing/shelter, antipoverty or other related service areas. Sites host Service Members at no cost but must provide daily supervision of Members placed at the organization. In turn, Members provide hundreds of service hours to increase your organization’s capacity.
