Benefits

The Jesuit Alumni Volunteer Program is more than just an interlude before graduate school or a career.  JAVs make important contributions to the lives of our students and, in the process, are changed through their service to the community.  However, the decision to give so completely of one’s self is not always an easy one.  After all, you have bills to pay and plans to consider.  Here are some things to keep in mind as you make your decision:

• A professional, supportive work environment
• Mentoring by experienced teachers
• An intentional community of others committed to service
• Opportunities for professional development
• Opportunities for spiritual and personal growth
• Two-year loan deferment and/or forbearance
• Eligibility for Segal AmeriCorps Education Awards of $4,725 each, valued at more than $9,000 over two years which can be credited to existing or future educational loans or tuition
• HMO Health Insurance
• Full Dental Coverage
• Full Room & Board
• Personal Transportation
• Monthly living stipend of $300.00
