Vermont is teeming with returned Peace Corps volunteers, more per capita than any other state. As the Peace Corps celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, we hear the stories and experiences of Peace Corps volunteers who served over those decades. Our guests are Kevin Quigley, president of the National Peace Corps Association in Washington, D.C., and Lewis and Susan Greenstein of Ryegate, who served in Kenya in the 1960s and have maintained professional and personal connections to that region ever since. Their non-profit, Alliance for Health, is forging connections between that region and the Upper Valley.
