Annual Summit Year III

Stories That Shape Us:
Service, Civics, and Character

Service in Action

Join fellow Empire State Service Corps members for an engaging, in-person summit that celebrates the stories, experiences, and impact of service. Through enriching programming, professional development, and inspiring keynote speakers, corps members will explore the connections between service, civic engagement, and character while gaining insights to strengthen their work and personal growth. The summit will also create meaningful opportunities to share experiences, exchange ideas, build relationships across campuses and cohorts, and strengthen a connected community committed to making a difference.
