The La Pine Youth Education and Access Program (LEAP) connects AmeriCorps members with meaningful service opportunities that strengthen youth, families, and communities across rural Central Oregon. Members serve alongside local schools, parks and recreation programs, nonprofits, and community organizations to expand access to youth development, wellness, recreation, education, and workforce opportunities. LEAP is designed for people who want to make a tangible difference while building practical skills and exploring future career pathways. Depending on their service setting, members may support youth programs, community outreach, mentoring, recreation and enrichment activities, career exploration, workforce readiness, and other projects that increase access to resources and opportunities in rural communities. Members are supported throughout their service through structured onboarding, site-based supervision, professional development, recurring cohort gatherings, and opportunities to connect with fellow AmeriCorps members serving throughout the region. Members gain hands-on experience in fields such as youth development, education, recreation, behavioral health-adjacent services, nonprofit and public-sector work, workforce development, and community engagement. Whether you are beginning your career, exploring a new professional direction, or looking for a meaningful way to serve your community, LEAP offers an opportunity to build experience, develop new skills, form local connections, and help create stronger pathways for rural youth and families.
