Mission and Values in Action: LVC places recent college graduates (“Volunteers”) in full-time service positions at social-justice organizations across the United States for one or two years. LVC places emphasis on the injustice of racism, oppression, and privilege in its leadership development curriculum; and Volunteers develop broad leadership skills while being placed with food justice, legal aid, environment, housing, immigration, education, health care, and other missions.
