Public Allies of San Antonio

Our mission is to create a just and equitable society and the diverse leadership to sustain it.

What is Public Allies?

Public Allies San Antonio is part of a national leadership movement, operated locally through the Alamo Colleges District.

For nearly 20 years, their signature apprenticeship program has connected participants, known as Allies, with nonprofit organizations and public agencies that address community needs related to education, health and wellness, youth development, and other issues.

Nationally, Public Allies has helped more than 10,000 emerging leaders serve their country, get on successful pathways to higher education and careers, and bring communities together to work for the common good.

We believe that communities already have the leadership they need to create lasting social change. Public Allies seeks to find and cultivate those leaders and connect them to the issues that ignite their passion.
