Business outlook
Pros
Lovely community, hands-on work, friendly volunteers and staff, strong training, and lifelong Handy work skills gained after supervising construction!
Cons
Hard to advance into more independent roles, low salary as Americorps volunteer (even including $250 monthly housing Stipend Durham Habitat offered), tricky to secure full food stamp allotment (but nice when you do), and unless you want to continue construction or go back to graduate school where Public service is viewed positively, the career outlook is not fantastic.
