ABSTRACT
In the course of nine months, each City Year team is to complete a number of short-term service projects, like our work at the Virginia-Monadnock Garden and at Taunton State Hospital, and two longer service projects, one in the spring and one in the fall. These longer projects are known as "flagship" projects and they generally involve "human service" (working with people) as opposed to "physical service" (labor). Each team expects the flagship will be their most challenging project, an opportunity to meet a real human need and to expand one's understanding of the world and of oneself.
