1 SEC. 2. FINDINGS AND PURPOSES. 

2 (a) FINDINGS.—Congress finds the following: 

3 (1) Throughout the United States, there are 

4 pressing unmet human, educational, environmental 

5 and public safety needs. 

6 (2) Americans desire to affirm common respon7 sibilities and shared values, and join together in 

8 positive experiences, that transcend race, religion, 

9 gender, age, disability, region, income, and edu10 cation. 

11 (3) Americans of all ages can improve their 

12 communities and become better citizens through 

13 service to their communities. 

14 (4) When youth participate in service activities 

15 and see that they are able to improve the lives of 

16 others, the youth feel better able to control their own 

17 lives in a positive way, avoiding risky behaviors, 

18 strengthening their community connections, and be19 coming more engaged in their own education. 

20 (5) When youth service is tied to learning objec21 tives, that service is shown to decrease alienation 

22 and behavior problems, and increase knowledge of 

23 community needs, commitment to an ethic of service, 

24 and understanding of politics and morality. 

25 (6) When service is tied to what students are 

26 learning in school, the students make gains on 


ccoleman on PRODPC74 with BILLS
3 

•HR 1880 IH

1 achievement tests, complete their homework more 

2 often, and increase their grade point averages. 

3 (7) Students who engage in service-learning im4 prove their communication skills, increase their 

5 awareness of career possibilities, have a deeper un6 derstanding of social and economic issues that face 

7 the United States, and develop more positive work8 place attitudes, preparing them to take their places 

9 as future leaders of the United States. 

10 (8) In a national poll, more than 80 percent of 

11 parents said that their child would benefit from an 

12 after school program that offered community service 

13 and 95 percent of teens agreed that is important to 

14 volunteer time to community efforts. 

15 (b) PURPOSE.—The purposes of this Act are to— 

16 (1) offer youth the chance to spend a summer 

17 in service to their communities as a rite of passage 

18 before high school; 

19 (2) teach civic participation skills to youth and 

20 help youth see themselves as resources and leaders 

21 for their communities; 

22 (3) expand educational opportunities and dis23 courage ‘‘summer slide’’ by engaging youth in sum24 mer service-learning opportunities; 


ccoleman on PRODPC74 with BILLS
4 

•HR 1880 IH

1 (4) encourage youth, regardless of age, income, 

2 or disability, to engage in community service; 

3 (5) provide tangible benefits to the communities 

4 in which Summer of Service programs are per5 formed; and 

6 (6) enhance the social-emotional development of 

7 youth of all backgrounds.
