Attachment B: Position Description Template
Through our Commonwealth Corps initiative, MSA partners with nonprofit organizations, academic institutions, and public agencies to reinvigorate civic involvement and help address the Commonwealth's most critical needs. Since Commonwealth Corps’ inception, MSA has been proud to invest nearly $7 million into organizations across Massachusetts through state funding — and we’re hoping that you’ll help us make the 2025-2026 service year our best one yet!
With either 2-4 full-time members or 2-6 half-time members, Commonwealth Corps is a smaller commitment for organizations than our AmeriCorps programs — so if you’ve been thinking of hosting service members to help advance your organization’s mission, Commonwealth Corps could be a great place to start!
To learn more visit our website here and also register for the Initial Application Q&A Session on Tuesday, January 7, here.
The initial application is a required step in the host site application process. Reach out to CCquestions@mass-service.org for further information.
