AmeriCorps has changed my life by giving me the opportunity to be a leader in the community. Through Green City Force, I mobilize low-income residents in New York and engage them in various community farm or garden projects that help strengthen communities and build unity among them. I can honestly say that this experience, and AmeriCorps in particular, has made me a better person. I get to mentor young people about sustainable agriculture, and I've become passionate about creating a better world for the next generation.
