Maryland’s Service Year and Corps programs are connecting purpose-driven talent with employers ready to shape the state’s future workforce. The next application deadline is June 1st.

As previously covered by MACo, the Service Year Option program provides recent Maryland high school graduates, GED recipients, or those who have earned a high school completion certificate the opportunity to spend at least nine months with partnering organizations that support their growth and development. In turn, the opportunities provided strengthen Maryland’s workforce and expand the state’s employment. The Maryland Corps program shares those same goals and aims to recruit more seasoned individuals looking to pivot in their career or reenter the workforce.

As a Host Site Partner to the Maryland Corps/Service Year program, public and private employers will have access to motivated, service-driven young professionals ready to contribute and help grow the Maryland economy.

Please listen to this short testimonial from Trey Davis, the Executive Director with Community Forklift.

Apply at serve.maryland.gov. The next application deadline is June 1st. If you have any questions, you can book a time to meet with a member of the Department’s staff.
