Is Public Allies successful?
More than 2,200 Allies have completed the program. More than 95% of Allies have met or exceeded their service goals helping tens of thousands of children, adults and families achieve greater education, health, economic security, and participation in the civic life of their communities. In addition, more than 95% of Allies would participate again in our program if they could. Over 80% of Alumni continue to work in the nonprofit and public sectors, and they participate in volunteer, civic and political activities at more than twice the rate of their age cohort. Public Allies is recognized for having many best practices in our field, and we were the first grantee of AmeriCorps to be hired to provide training and technical assistance to all of their other grantees. Last year, the Pew Partnership for Civic Change honored Public Allies with their prestigious Civic Change Award. How do I apply to be an Ally? 1.
