OAKLAND, Calif.\u00a0<\/b>\u2014 Today, Josh Fryday, Governor\u2019s Office of Service and Community Engagement (GO-Serve) Director and California Chief Service Officer, joined the Youth Employment Partnership to highlight how Oakland youth are making a difference through hands-on service in their communities and to announce the recruitment of 2,200 paid\u00a0California Service Corps<\/a><\/b>\u00a0positions across the Bay Area.<\/p>\n

The event offered an inside look at service in action, with young people engaging in meaningful dialogue followed by leading projects such as preparing meals, working in community gardens and supporting local beautification efforts while showcasing how service is building skills, confidence and career pathways.<\/p>\n

Across the state, 10,000 California Service Corps members are being recruited to support communities by taking environmental action, tutoring and mentoring students, responding to disasters, tackling food insecurity and connecting vulnerable Californians to critical resources and services.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re calling on Californians to join up, lend a hand and step out into the community. We see and feel the difference when California Service Corps members are on the ground and engaging with their communities \u2014 making a lasting impact on our state,\u201d said\u00a0Governor Gavin Newsom<\/b>. \u201cMore than ever, California is committed to investing in the next generation of emerging leaders and ensuring their path towards success.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Building on this momentum, California is also launching the\u00a0California Men\u2019s Service Challenge<\/a><\/b>\u00a0to encourage more men to step up and serve through the California Service Corps and partner organizations.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe California Service Corps has become a powerful force for good. We have built a statewide army of Californians lifting up their communities while gaining experience, skills, connection and purpose. Today, we continue to call on a new generation of Californians to lead, solve problems and launch careers through service,\u201d said\u00a0GO-Serve Director Josh Fryday<\/b>.<\/p>\n
