Applications are being accepted on a rolling basis for the 2022-23 program year.
Change A Heart welcomes women and men who are committed to experiencing service, simplicity, spirituality, and community in the Franciscan tradition. A Change A Heart service year can be challenging and tiring at times, but it is also rewarding and fulfilling. While there is no typical member background, each individual brings a unique story, experience, and history to the program. Interested individuals of all work experiences, educational backgrounds, ethnicities, and residential locations encouraged to apply.
Members serve for 11 months. The program begins in late-August with a week-long orientation and ends the following July.
The application process includes registering online, uploading your resume and goal statement, submitting your transcript and 3 references, an interview with the program director, and complete paperwork. Applicants are also invited and encouraged to "come and see" current members (optional). Applicants will be notified of their acceptance within 48 hours of their second interview.
