What is AmeriCorps ?

About AmeriCorps AmeriCorps members make the world a better place through their service at nonprofits, schools, public agencies, and community and faith-based groups across the country, helping children learn, protecting the environment, or bringing needed services to underserved communities

AmeriCorps offers Training & Experience AmeriCorps is a real-life education and work experience wrapped into one. As a member, you will learn teamwork, leadership, responsibility and other essential skills that will help you for the rest of your life. And you will gain the personal satisfaction of taking on challenges and seeing results.

AmeriCorps Offers Tangible Benefits Full-time AmeriCorps members receive a modest living allowance for service and health care. Most AmeriCorps members receive student loan deferment and training. After you complete your term of service, you will also receive a Segal AmeriCorps Education Award to help pay for college, graduate school, or vocational training.

Is there an age requirement? To be eligible, an AmeriCorps applicant must be at least 17 years old and not more than 24 years old.

Will I get any training before I start? Absolutely. All members receive training at the beginning of their service, as well as project-specific training during service.
