Peace Corps Reopens Program in Liberia

After an absence of nearly two decades, experienced Volunteers will be serving in the country through a program called Peace Corps Response. President Bush discussed the possibility of Peace Corps’ return to Liberia in October 18, 2007 during an Oval Office meeting with Liberian President Ellen Johnson-Sirleaf. President Bush said, “The Peace Corps has been in touch with our State Department and the Liberia folks and it looks like we're going to start moving some teams pretty quickly back into Liberia.”
