Public Allies Wisconsin

Its signature AmeriCorps program places emerging leaders in community service. Public Allies Wisconsin is part of a nonprofit network that has supported underrepresented leaders since 1992, helping participants build skills and connections while serving their communities. The Wisconsin program offers a paid apprenticeship that generally lasts 10 months, with benefits, and invites eligible people over 17 with a high school diploma or GED to apply. Participants can develop pathways to higher education and careers through hands-on community-based work. The organization also offers Custom Leadership Labs and Civic Action Projects, and works with community partners who can host an Ally. Its programs focus on developing diverse leadership and bringing communities together to work for the common good.
