Our Mission

• Educating Americans about the work of Peace Corps Volunteers
• Educating Americans about the countries Peace Corps serves

• Assisting returning Peace Corps Volunteers in readjusting to life and work back home

NorCal is a 501(c)3 nonprofit, volunteer organization affiliated with the National Peace Corps Association. We have over 600 members composed of returned Peace Corps Volunteers (RPCVs), former staff, their families, and people who share our values of education, service and continuing the Peace Corps experience and ideals through local, national, and international activities. NorCalPCA encompass the geographical territory of Northern California focused on the Greater San Francisco Bay Area and Monterey Bay as well as the north coast and some inland areas, excepting the Sacramento Valley where there is a separate RPCV group.
