Notre Dame Mission Volunteers teams serve with local partners to expand access to education. Their primary approach is to offer small group and one-on-one instruction. NDMV AmeriCorps members serve in crowded classrooms and community centers. NDMV AmeriCorps members serve full-time for 11 months. A local site director oversees and supports members. During the service year, NDMV AmeriCorps members receive professional development in the form of biweekly team meetings, a training conference in Maryland and opportunities for additional training and retreats.
