Volunteer Service Programs
A network of national service programs that engage volunteers to serve in nonprofit organizations, public agencies and faith-based organizations where they provide intensive services to meet needs in education, public safety, health and the environment. They tutor and mentor youth, build affordable housing, teach computer skills, clean parks and streams, run after-school programs, and help communities respond to disaster. AmeriCorps' programs include AmeriCorps VISTA, the AmeriCorps NCCC Program (the National Civilian Community Corp), and the State and National grant funding program which supports a broad range of local service programs that engage thousands of volunteers in intensive service to meet critical community needs. AmeriCorps and its programs are administered by the Corporation for National and Community Service.
A federal volunteer service program that provides opportunities for people to volunteer their time and work for low wages on projects whose objective is to help developing countries make improvements in the areas of agricultural/rural development, health and education.
