California Volunteers has launched an initiative aimed at creating job opportunities through the California Service Corps, as highlighted in a recent discussion featuring Cristina Valdivia, Director of Communications at Go Surf. This program is designed to engage individuals in community service while providing them with compensation.

The California Service Corps offers a variety of roles, including positions focused on education, climate action, and food banks. Interested individuals can find more information and apply through the website CAServiceCorps.com. The initiative is particularly beneficial for students, offering both full-time and part-time opportunities, with a special program for college students that allows them to earn up to $10,000 while studying.

Eligibility for these positions ranges from individuals as young as 16 to adults, with specific requirements varying by program. The initiative aims to recruit 10,000 participants, emphasizing the importance of community service and the professional experience gained through these roles.

The start dates for these jobs vary, aligning with academic schedules for college students and other seasonal opportunities. Valdivia encouraged community members to explore the available options, reinforcing the state's commitment to supporting its residents through meaningful employment opportunities.
