California Service Corps members recruit in Riverside, say participants "get paid doing it"

An event host in Riverside introduced Quetzali, a College Corps member, and Greg, a Youth Service Corps member, who urged attendees to join the California Service Corps and described service roles that include paid positions.

The event host said, "Don't take my word for it. Listen to them. Join us. Be part of your community. Get paid doing it." The host also directed listeners to "Caservicecorps.com."

Quetzali, identified in the event as a College Corps member, encouraged peers to join, saying, "You should join college corps because you're able to serve your community and give back to the IB. And overall, just, just be around, like, community members with the same purpose. Yeah." Greg, identified as a Youth Service Corps member, said, "You should, join the youth service corps so that you can, make a positive impact on your community and, feel rewarded for it and, just grow your network and see all the positive change that's possible with just 1 to 1 interactions with people."

Speakers at the Riverside event framed the opportunity primarily as a way for college students and younger volunteers to serve locally while gaining community connections; the host emphasized that participants receive payment but did not specify amounts or the payment structure. The transcript did not detail program eligibility, funding sources, or the duration and size of participating cohorts.

The remarks occurred during a short promotional segment in Riverside; no formal motions, votes, or policy decisions were made during the recorded segment.
