NMI Peace Corps Memories

Here is a collection of pictures and stories from Peace Corps Volunteers and Staff who lived and worked in the Northern Mariana Islands (NMI) and Micronesia in the late 1960's and early 1970's.  PCVs and Staff were no longer eligible to work in the NMI when it became a Commonwealth of the United States.   We're working with the Museum of the Peace Corps Experience to make content like this more available.  We are also in communication with the CNMI Official Archives and Northern Marianas Humanities Council (NMHC) about content sharing.  The NMHC has funded a matching grant to facilitate community involvement and development of this project.
