Providing for Community Needs with MCHS Community Corps
In this episode of The S-Files, we will be exploring how two AmeriCorps members with the Marshfield Clinic Health System AmeriCorps Community Corps program that are helping to provide needed items to people in the communities they serve, including healthy local foods and diapers. We begin our conversation by talking with Maddie Kinscher, who is increasing access to fresh nutritious foods at Central Rivers Farmshed in Stevens Point. We then speak with Monica Ducksworth, who is coordinating the diaper bank program at the United Way of Greater Milwaukee and Waukesha County, after having previously served two other terms with MCHS Volunteer Wisconsin at the Milwaukee Academy of Science. Listen in to learn how these AmeriCorps members are mobilizing volunteers, organizing drives and outreach efforts, and helping to build healthier and more supported communities through their service.
