AmeriCorps is America, and We Must Protect It
A service year through @AmeriCorps is a transformative experience.
It’s a life-changing experience for those who serve.
It also uplifts and benefits classrooms, communities, national forests and national parks - more than 35,000 places and spaces in every state, every territory, and several tribal nations.
It brings people together and bridges divides, strengthening the connections between each other.
That’s what makes the decision to eliminate nearly 33,000 AmeriCorps members and Seniors volunteers earlier this spring so heartbreaking. It’s not just a setback for those told to go home. It’s a step back from the values we aspire to uphold and hurts communities coast-to-coast.
Join in celebrating all those who serve, and in calling on Congress take a #Stand4Service and to protect and invest in AmeriCorps: https://bit.ly/AmeriCorpsxAmerica #AmeriCorpsIsAmerica
