Appalachia CARES engages AmeriCorps members in direct service with students in primarily rural school systems in eleven Northeast Tennessee counties served by the Clinch-Powell and Appalachian Resource, Conservation and Development Councils. The overall goal of the Appalachia CARES program is to use service learning in schools to provide thoughtfully organized experiences, which integrates students' academic learning with service projects that meet real community needs.
