Reflecting on Martin Luther King, Jr. Day

Washington Service Corps – a program administered by the Washington Employment Security Department – has several hundred AmeriCorps members involved in community service projects throughout Washington state.

And although most of them had the day off on Monday, January 19th in observance of Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, many of them spent the day volunteering in some way.
