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.
