ANNOUNCING FIVE AMERICORPS POSITIONS IN HIV
PREVENTION AND CARE
The Tulsa Community AIDS
Partnership (TCAP) is recruiting five members for the 14th National AIDS Fund
AmeriCorps Team-Tulsa.
AmeriCorps members will work in
Tulsa HIV prevention and care services beginning August 15th after a
week of training in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Members selected for the Tulsa team
will earn a living stipend of $14,000 for 11 months of national service between
August 3, 2008 and July 15, 2009. In addition, each member will receive an
educational award of $4,725 at the end of their service to attend college,
technical school, or work on an advanced degree. Candidates for next year's team
will be interviewed by host site agencies to find the best fit for Tulsa's HIV
prevention and care needs. Many former members have found jobs in HIV/AIDS
organizations or in other areas of social justice, health, and human services in
the Tulsa community.
TCAP with support from the Tulsa
Area United Way and the Community Service Council has sponsored an AmeriCorps
Team every year since the program began in l994.
