Peace Corps growth points to broad global impact
As editors note, since its 1961 creation the Peace Corps has expanded from 700 field workers to 4,000 volunteers in 43 countries at 18 months and to 10,000 in 50 countries next year, with Latin America expected to host 2,500 volunteers. Only 25 of 2,500 left, few failures, programs funded by host nations, and ex volunteers now sought as teachers and in industry. The piece argues the corps counters Communist influence and costs about 9,000 dollars per volunteer, framing it as a safer, cheaper path to global peace.
