Careers at Jersey Cares

Jersey Cares Vision- We envision a New Jersey in which everyone is motivated and empowered to make a positive difference. Jersey Cares Mission- As a leader in volunteerism in New Jersey, Jersey Cares increases the level of meaningful volunteer engagement by creating and managing efficient, impactful projects that address critical community-identified needs. ServiceWorks – powered by AmeriCorps, the Citi Foundation and Jersey Cares – is a groundbreaking, national program that uses volunteer service as a strategy to help 25,000 low-income youth and young adults in 10 cities develop the skills they need to prepare for college and careers. Jersey Cares is one of ten nationwide host sites for this initiative. The program, which will deploy more than 200 AmeriCorps members over three years, will engage young adults or “Service Scholars,” aged 16-24, in service and build a large-scale volunteer response to the crisis of low college and career attainment.
