AmeriCorps NCCC Overview: AmeriCorps National Civilian Community Corps (NCCC), a program of AmeriCorps, is seeking proposals which address compelling community needs. NCCC strengthens communities and develops leaders through a full-time, team-based, residential national service program for young adults. NCCC partners with a variety of nonprofit organizations, tribal, federal, state, and local agencies to help meet community needs that would not be fully addressed without additional assistance. Projects typically last 6-8 weeks although shorter periods are possible. Types of service NCCC teams can perform include disaster services, energy conservation, infrastructure improvement, urban and rural development, and environmental stewardship. There is no charge for labor and teams provide their own transportation, however NCCC requests sponsors provide a place for the team to sleep and shower along with assistance with food or kitchen facilities to cook on. With the current environment, NCCC has developed protocols for social distancing, cleaning, housing, worksites, use of face coverings, and health screenings based on guidance from the CDC and other experts.
If you would like to apply to receive a team, or for additional information, please contact Jeff Moeur at jmoeur@cns.gov or 202-528-3785.
We were thrilled to welcome Keri Hunter as our August Serve Indiana Ambassador! Keri served with Indiana Reading Corp in 1998. She went on become their Program Director for 5 years. At the time, they were the largest statewide program and received national funding! Indiana Reading Corp served K-6th grade students in 20 different communities in Indiana.
Keri is currently the VP of Training and Outreach at EdChoice and has worked in the non-profit sector for nearly 25 years! It was truly an honor to celebrate Keri’s lifetime commitment to service!
