2018 AmeriCorps Week - Getting Things Done!

AmeriCorps Week is a celebration of all things AmeriCorps – the people and programs who have committed to "Get Things Done" in thousands of locations across the country since the program’s inception in 1994. America’s greatness comes from the extraordinary acts of ordinary citizens. The Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) makes our country great by empowering AmeriCorps and Senior Corps members to solve local problems nationwide.

 

In coordination with state and local entities, national service responds to the most pressing issues facing our nation. AmeriCorps and Senior Corps members prepare today’s students for tomorrow’s jobs, reduce crime, connect returning veterans to jobs, fight the opioid epidemic, support seniors to live independently, make college more accessible and affordable, and help Americans rebuild their lives following disasters.

 

As part of this year’s festivities, we ask that you share the impact of AmeriCorps on your life and invite you to join us in a nationwide “Thank You” to currently serving members, alumni, and programs.
