Abstract: The 2024 RPCV Impact Survey is the third wave of the Peace Corps’ multi-year RPCV Impact Survey project, intended to measure the demonstrable impact of the Peace Corps on Returned Volunteers. Each wave of the RPCV Impact Survey is administered to different cohorts of RPCVs based on their number of years post-service. The 2024 RPCV Impact Survey is designed to collect information from RPCVs whose first service ended in year 2003, 2013, 2018, or 2021, corresponding to 21, 11, 6, and 3 years post-service from the time the survey is fielded. The data generated through this project will allow the agency to better assess the continuing impact of the Peace Corps on American society, through the lives and careers that Peace Corps Volunteers build after they return to the United States from Peace Corps service. The fourth and final wave of the RPCV Impact Survey will take place in 2026, thereby fulfilling the congressional mandate for this data collection initiative.
