For #AmeriCorpsWeek, we are putting the spotlight on Tennessee national service members. Meet Joelle Thompson, an AmeriCorps member with BRIDGES, USA in Memphis and hear what inspired her to serve.
“I chose to serve with AmeriCorps because I wanted to have a gap year of work experience that was meaningful and impactful for communities that deserve it most. I was a Bridge Builder growing up, and that experience reminded me of the opportunities I would have to accomplish my goals for doing meaningful and impactful work. At BRIDGES, serving youth has expanded my knowledge on the issues youth face, their passions and interests, and how to propel them into community building. AmeriCorps has allowed me to tailor my interests to my work, do a significant amount of internal work and learn how I show up in my community through service.
As a native Memphian, and a future Public Health professional, I have a fiery passion for health equity, social justice, and community development in all areas of disenfranchised communities. Memphis, being a majority black city, has given me the tools and the inspiration for giving back and serving, and I believe youth development is the best way to attack the cycles of disparities and issues that plague our minority communities. As an advocate, I have been able to build youth leaders through my service term and develop my own advocacy skills that I do not believe would have happened anywhere else. I am forever grateful for my AmeriCorps and BRIDGES experience this year, especially through the troubling times of today.”

It is #AmeriCorpsWeek and we are putting the spotlight on Tennessee national service members. Dylan Green, an Appalachian Regional Coalition on Homelessness AmeriCorps member, shared what he has experienced and gained while serving with Chattanooga Homeless Coalition.
“Being an advocate for the community and folks experiencing homelessness that don't have anyone to speak for them, has been my favorite part of my AmeriCorps experience. Just being able to be there for people that have no one else, especially during the challenges they faced this past year due to the pandemic, has been so meaningful. Also having the opportunity to use news media and social media to reach new people has been a fantastic experience. I had never done that before, and I saw the results of it through new donations and hearing from new people that wanted to get involved in what we are doing. For the recent Point in Time Count event, I enjoyed the experience of learning how to organize volunteers. I have gained some planning and leadership skills and received many valuable trainings while serving. For example, I received Narcan training, and I carry lifesaving kits with me during outreach. There have been a few times that I thought I was going to need to use it, and it is good to know that, if needed, I can save a life due to my training. I also trained on human trafficking and learned that I had a limited understanding of what human trafficking is and now have new resources to share. I have also gained skills in case management. Basically, I was given the freedom to explore a lot of different roles and responsibilities that I never thought before I would be able to do. I love my service experience”
