Fellows/USA advances the Peace Corps' third goal, "to help promote a better understanding of other peoples on the part of Americans," by developing and maintaining educational partnerships that place returned Volunteers in internships in underserved U.S. communities. Through a collaboration of universities, public school systems, community organizations, funders, and the Peace Corps, returned Volunteers use the knowledge and skills they developed during their overseas service to improve people's lives here at home. As Peace Corps Fellows, they earn graduate degrees and/or certification at reduced cost, advancing their professional development for careers in a wide range of fields.
