What Works Best is Work Itself

The Milwaukee Community Service Corps (MCSC) is a grassroots organization working to meet the needs of the community through visible and measurable community service.

Corpsmember participants have the opportunity to learn new skills, earn a wage, serve their community, earn a high school equivalency diploma, and prepare themselves for post-corps college or trade apprenticeships. In the field, corpsmembers renovate vacant homes, plant community gardens, landscape vacant lots, remove graffiti, perform lead outreach and reduction activities, engage in recycling projects, and construct new playgrounds.
