AmeriCorps Funding Opportunity

The Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) is the independent federal agency charged with engaging Americans in national service at non-profits, schools and community groups through programs like AmeriCorps and Senior Corps. CNCS provides grant funding to non-profits to operate their own AmeriCorps programs. CNCS is interested in increasing the diversity of our grantee portfolio to include more AmeriCorps State and National grantees working in the disability community and increasing the number of service members with disabilities.

Please consider applying to compete for an AmeriCorps State and National grant by reading about the current funding opportunity at the AmeriCorps State and National Notice of Funding Opportunity website.
