AmeriCorps State

Since the program’s founding in 1994, more than 1 million AmeriCorps members have contributed more than 1 billion hours in service across America while tackling pressing problems and mobilizing millions of volunteers for the organizations they serve.

AmeriCorps State supports a wide range of local service programs that engage thousands of Americans in intensive community service each year. We provide grants to a network of local and national organizations and agencies committed to using national service to address critical community needs in education, public safety, health, and the environment.

Full-time AmeriCorps State and National members are given a living allowance; health care; childcare if they qualify; and become eligible for the Segal AmeriCorps Education Award upon successful completion of the program.
