My understanding of the National Service Reserve Corps (NSRC) is that it is a volunteer
organization where people volunteer to help with public service, disaster response, and
national security. This understanding came from reviewing lesson 1. It aims to create a
competent, motivated, and organized group of people that the government can use for
voluntary projects in civic welfare, literacy, national emergencies, disaster risk reduction
and management, environmental protection, and other relevant areas. Reserve Officers'
Training Corps (ROTC), Civic Welfare Training Service (CWTS), and Literacy Training
Service (LTS) are just a few of the programs offered by the National Service and
Reserve Corps (NSRC) to help cultivate socially conscious and civic-minded citizens,
particularly among young people.
1. Reserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC): focuses on discipline, leadership
development, and military training while also trying to inculcate in them a feeling of duty
and patriotism.
2. Civic Welfare Training Service (CWTS): Students engaged in CWTS take part in
initiatives that help improve the community, reduce risks from disasters, and protect the
environment. 3. Literacy Training Service (LTS): It involves teaching reading and
numeracy skills to underserved segments of society, so contributing to the overall
improvement of community education.
In lesson 2, the overview of voluntarism is the main topic. But volunteering has a lot of
positive effects on the community, worthy causes, and the underprivileged, and it could
also have a big positive impact on you. Finding the appropriate match can help you
grow professionally, make new friends, and connect with your community. Maintaining
your physical and emotional well-being can also be facilitated by giving to others. It can
support you in finding your purpose in life, managing depression, managing stress, and
maintaining cognitive function. Although it is true that the more volunteer work you do,
the more benefits you will gain, volunteering doesn't have to take up a significant portion
of your busy schedule or need a long-term commitment.
