Curatorial Commentary
The National Peace Corps Association (NPCA), a non-profit organization incorporated in 1981, was originally called the National Council of Returned Peace Corps Volunteers until the name was changed in 1994. Headquartered in Washington, D.C. the organization "serves the entire Peace Corps community, encouraging and celebrating their lifelong commitment to Peace Corps ideals and building their capacity to make a profound difference in the world." More information on the organization may be found here: peacecorpsconnect.org. - Stephen Fagin, Curator
