NGSC Core Values

Developing Leaders to Create a Better World

As the anchor program of the Public Service Academy, the Next Generation Service Corps was created with a new type of leader in mind. A leader who understands the complex challenges our society faces today. A leader who recognizes the need for collaboration among the public, private, and nonprofit sectors to address these challenges. A character-driven leader with the courage to cross sectors, connect networks, and ignite action for the greater good. 

Background

Launched in 2015, the NGSC offers students a unique opportunity to learn about complex challenges from different perspectives, develop leadership skills experientially, and build a diverse network of that will aid them in achieving their personal goals. We envision a future shaped by leaders in all fields, across all sectors, working collaboratively to bring justice and equity to our communities and ensure the sustained development and prosperity of society and everyone in it. 

NGSC places and emphasis on public service and servant leadership. Through robust curriculum, meaningful internships, and intentional leadership training and practice, students are given the tools to lead change that benefits the greater good. Students within the NGSC have control over their development as a leader and freedom to determine how they can make the greatest impact.
