Although no longer an AmeriCorps national service program, the City is proud to have run one of the oldest AmeriCorps program in the state and one of the few programs nationally that has been around since the inception of the AmeriCorps program in 1994.

AmeriCorps engages over 50,000 dedicated Americans every year in meeting the critical needs of communities in the areas of public safety, education, human needs, homeland security, and the environment. In exchange for one or two years of service, AmeriCorps members receive educational awards to help finance their college education or pay back student loans.
