Operation Crossroads Africa

OCA oversees two volunteer programs: the Africa program, which annually supports 15 to 20 work projects in Africa, and the Diaspora program, which focuses on Brazil because of its large Afro Brazilian population. The program consists of three orientation days in New York City, six weeks of service on a rural project, and one week of travel in the hose country. All Crossroads ventures are community initiated and volunteers live and work with hosts who have designed the project.
