Opportunity Information: Apply for CNCS 08 31 15
The AmeriCorps State and National Grants for FY 2016 offer funding to organizations that plan to engage AmeriCorps members in community service projects based on proven methods to enhance community well-being. AmeriCorps members participate in these approved service roles and may receive a living allowance and other benefits. After completing their service, they earn a Segal AmeriCorps Education Award, which helps cover educational expenses or student loans. The grants include two key elements: operational funds and positions for AmeriCorps members, with funding amounts varying based on the project's needs. Typically, the grants support a three-year project period, but initial funding is awarded for the first year only, with ongoing funding not guaranteed. For more information, organizations can contact the AmeriCorps grants office via email or phone.
