What is AmeriCorps?
AmeriCorps is a network of local, state, and national service programs that connect over 70,000 Americans each year in intensive service to meet community needs in education, the environment, public safety, health, and homeland security. AmeriCorps' members serve with more than 2,000 non-profits, public agencies, and community organizations.
