About Us

Our Roots

More than three decades ago, a group of inspired community members started the organization that is now known as the Southern California Service Corps. They believed that their peers deserved more ways to be involved in their community and worked to create opportunities that fit their lifestyles.
 

The numbers of engaged volunteers, innovative programs and community leaders have grown tremendously in the years since we began. What has not changed is the fundamental belief that the energy, diversity, and dedication of our communities bright emerging leaders can be a tremendous, positive force in our region & world.

Volunteer Opportunities

With our organization’s mission always in mind, we strive to find new ways to connect people with opportunities in making a difference. Our team is working each and every day to make a positive impact in the lives of our community members by staying connected, informed and available. We have a variety of community partners ready and willing to host volunteers in one time or ongoing events. 

Court Alternative Sentencing Program

Community service opportunities for individuals as an alternative to paying fines and/or incarceration. Our Volunteer Resource Centers Restorative Justice Program provides community service case management to more than 2000 adults & juveniles each year. We work primarily with the courts and probation departments from Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside & San Bernardino Counties. This opportunity is a "fee for service" program.

Mentoring

At our Service Corps, we are dedicated to stepping up our efforts in addressing this issue. Mentoring is by no means an easy feat, but through cooperation and community empowerment we believe we can facilitate progress in this area. We are always striving to make a difference, and invite you to learn more and lend your support.

We host our own Mentoring Arts and Culture Program, however, we are connected to a variety of community organizations that host great youth mentoring opportunities.
