For immigrants, becoming a U.S. citizen is an important part of the path to civic engagement. Help them take that step by volunteering to teach classes that help them prepare for the test to become an American citizen. Volunteers work in teams to plan and teach the classes. This fun and rewarding experience gives you a chance to make a difference in the lives of others.
