We’re changing the face and practice of leadership in San Antonio.

At Public Allies San Antonio, we believe changing times call for a new kind of leadership. We are excited to be in our first year of developing young leaders. Allies are young, diverse, and passionate social change makers who support  community projects in partnership with hundreds of local nonprofit organizations.

Our Allies change their lives and our community through a rigorous AmeriCorps program that combines full-time, paid apprenticeships in nonprofits with intensive skills training, active community-building projects, personalized coaching, and critical reflection. We provide all of this through a nationally recognized approach that’s rooted in a practice of values.

Everyone leads… and we walk the talk. We are in the process of recruiting a class which reflects the diversity of San Antonio.  Allies are of and for our local community, and they share a deep commitment to strengthening San Antonio.

We’re creating pathways for a stronger community and a lifetime of impact. Nationally, more than 80% of Alumni continue a career in the nonprofit and public sectors, and about 95% of Alumni say they would participate again if they could. Partner organizations report that their work with an Ally increases their capacity by up to 30%!  Results like these  have led the Public Allies program to be recognized as a model for national service.
