“At a moment when our social fabric is being torn apart, where people increasingly only hear voices that are like their own, it’s a really important time to build social capital through giving people opportunities to work in service in ways that are also going to deliver value to the country,” Mr. Buttigieg said.

“I also think you shouldn’t have to go to war to have that experience,” he added.
