Our History
AmeriCorps is the national service movement that engages thousands of Americans
of all ages and backgrounds in a domestic Peace Corps - getting things done
across America by meeting our education, public safety, environmental and human
needs. In exchange for a year or two of service, AmeriCorps members earn educational
awards to help pay back student loans or to finance college, graduate school
or vocational training. AmeriCorps was signed into law in September, 1993. AmeriCorps
is part of a long tradition of efforts encouraging and rewarding service - dating
back to America's beginning and including the Civilian Conservation Corps, the
GI Bill and the Peace Corps.
