I would join AmeriCorps… b/c I did =P

I didn’t want a 27 month commitment that comes with the peace corps, and I wanted to still be in VA. And I wanted running water. I know multiple people who have recently been / are currently in the peace corps though, and they have good experiences. Also the peace corps could have an undesirable affect on the career that I would like to get into after doing volunteer work.
