AmeriCorps mission is to improve lives, strengthen communities, and foster civic engagement through service and volunteering. The federal agency leads service, volunteering, and grant-making efforts in the United States, and helps millions of Americans improve their lives and the lives of their fellow citizens through service. We worked hand-in-hand with local partners to tap the ingenuity and can-do spirit of the American people to tackle our country's most pressing challenges. AmeriCorps serves more than 45,000 locations across the country to meet community needs related to education, health, energy and conservation, economic development, and disaster services, and support high-impact, direct action service to meet pressing needs, from illiteracy and homelessness to hunger and disasters.

WHC's mission is to treat each patient as we would a member of our own family by providing the best medical treatment with care and compassion, responsive service, and an intelligent use of resources. I increased system effectiveness and built on the collective strength and cultural diversity of everyone, working with open communication, mutual respect, and in a fiscally responsible manner, to ensure the best possible outcomes for all. Everyday I strived to anticipate and meet the needs of the patients, physicians and colleagues. We delivered the very best to every patient, every day, with a "Patient First" mentality. I built trust with the patients and faculty, and conducted myself according to the highest ethical standards, while serving those around me with the highest professionalism and dignity. Show less
