hmmm...$1800 a month......that would be $415 a week to attend weekly training workshops......
from the web site...
http://www.publicallies.org/site/c.l...pplication.htmPublic Allies is a full-time commitment which frequently requires more than 40 hours per week.
http://www.publicallies.org/site/c.l..._Questions.htmWhat do Allies do?
Allies serve four days a week for 10 months at local nonprofits, where they create, improve and expand services that address issues including youth development, education, public health, economic development, and the environment.
Once a week, Allies participate in a rigorous leadership development program in which local community leaders and expert practitioners lead workshops. In addition, Allies participate in community building activities, contribute to team service projects, and receive individual coaching to support their professional development during their apprenticeship.
this is huge....sort of along the lines of the works program that Roosevelt put in place after the Depression....except then he put shovels in their hands and had them build roads and dams......Obama's plan puts them in non-profit organizations doing community organization.....obviously training future presidents.....
