FOM Newsletter Spring 1997
Recently the National Peace Corps Association Board of Directors adopted a resolution authorizing the establishment of a National RPCV Hospitality Network - the network modeled after the already-established program in the NPCA El Camino Region (NM, CO, UT, AZ).
A somewhat ambitious July publication date has been planned, for release at the San Diego Conference.
The purpose of the directory is to assist RPCVs in maintaining their "connection" with the Peace Corps Experience. The Peace Corps Experience is identified as a personal experience engendering a global perspective and a life-long tendency toward participatory public service and citizenship. This is not a business enterprise; there are no paid staff or employees; it is simply a way of expanding RPCV interaction in a low $$$ manner, will be made available to traveling RPCVs. It would be especially helpful to recently returned RPCVs as they move around during their initial readjustment period, and serve as an inclusive program for RPCVs living off-the-beaten-path. The basis for participation is mutual trust, respect, and goodwill.
