National Peace Corps Association Advocacy
Friends of Tonga works with the National Peace Corps Association (NPCA) to organize meetings with our state's Congressional Delegation to urge Congressional action to support legislation that:
- Maintains or increases funding for the Peace Corps program;
- Protects the health and safety of currently serving volunteers;
- Honors and supports those who have completed their Peace Corps service.
How can you get involved?
