NEW FRONTIERS FOR THE PEACE CORPS
Tens of thousands have served in the Peace Corps since its founding over 40 years ago, working in more than 130 countries around the world.
Since 9/11, the importance of the work of volunteers abroad - and their role in bringing understanding of other cultures back home - has been further underscored. The Peace Corps has also set its sights on broadening and deepening work in the Islamic world.
What vision does Vasquez - a Californian whose nomination stirred controversy among returned volunteers - have for the organization and Peace Corps place in American global engagement? Gaddi H. Vasquez
