Appalachia Volunteers

The Appalachia Volunteers Program is committed to working with the poverty stricken populace of the United States. Our mission is to:
  • Learn about the structural and social realities in the United States that leave some people impoverished and marginalized
  • Discuss the injustices that create entrenched poverty
  • Consider a theological and faith perspective on social justice
  • Participate in local service opportunities throughout the year

This yearlong process culminates in an annual spring break trip to struggling regions of the United States. With these goals and our work, the Appalachia Program seeks to build a better future by entering into solidarity with the impoverished of Boston and Beyond.
