SAGA’s Connections Program is an AmeriCorps Individual Placement Program.

Connections Members are full-time AmeriCorps Members who provide up to 11 months of service. This service is available to government agencies, non-profit organizations and public school systems throughout the state of Alaska. Their efforts support programs that improve school success and youth wellness. Members earn a monthly living allowance, an Education Award, and gain valuable leadership skills.

Connections Members come from varying social, cultural and educational backgrounds. Many have college degrees and experience in community involvement and education issues. All of them see the value of and are committed to community service and have come to Alaska to “Get Things Done”, as evidenced by their willingness to serve.
