Experience Corps Bay Area Retreat

Eunice has worked with Experience Corps for nine years. She was hired as the San Francisco Director back in August 2000, with just a few dozen older adult volunteers tutoring and mentoring children in 5 San Francisco public schools.

Here's Eunice back in 2000 with her staff, which included just one other full-time staff plus five AmeriCorps*VISTAs engaging in a year of service with the program.

Since then, the program has grown into a multi-city effort with 200+ older adult volunteers serving nearly 3,000 children in 23 schools in San Francisco, Oakland, and San Rafael. This summer, Experience Corps held it's first multi-city retreat for its now 20 staff members, a wonderfully intergenerational group that continues to be near and dear to Eunice's heart.
