agency for national service and

volunteerism. AmeriCorps provides

opportunities for Americans of all

backgrounds to serve their country,

address the nation’s most pressing

challenges, improve lives and

communities, and strengthen civic

engagement.

Meeting Needs in Utah

Last year more than 4,000 Americans of all ages and

backgrounds united to meet local needs, strengthen

communities, and expand opportunity through national service

in Utah. AmeriCorps invested more than $15.0 million in federal

funding to support cost-effective community solutions, working

hand in hand with local partners to empower individuals to help

communities tackle their toughest challenges.

AmeriCorps members and AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers

are preparing today’s students for tomorrow’s jobs, helping

communities and families impacted by COVID-19 pandemic,

connecting veterans to services, fighting the opioid epidemic,

helping seniors live independently, rebuilding communities

after disasters, and leading conservation and climate change

efforts.

More than 200,000 AmeriCorps

members and AmeriCorps Seniors

volunteers serve each year,

empowering millions more to meet

needs in their communities. By

bringing people together to serve

communities, AmeriCorps is making

service to others an indispensable

part of the American experience.

to pay for qualified educational

costs. Since 1994, more than 22,000

Utah residents have served

approximately 21 million hours and

earned education awards totaling

more than $55.1 million. Higher

education institutions and other

organizations in Utah have received

more than $43.4 million in education

award payments since 1994.

AmeriCorps members and AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers

served at more than 600 locations across Utah, including

schools, food banks, homeless shelters, health clinics, youth

centers, veterans' facilities, and other nonprofit and faithbased organizations. Through a unique public-private

partnership, AmeriCorps and its partners generated more

than $3.8 million in outside resources from businesses,

foundations, public agencies, and other sources in Utah last

year. This local support strengthened community impact and

increased the return on taxpayer dollars.

needs.

with special needs.

AmeriCorps NCCC

AmeriCorps VISTA places individuals with nonprofit organizations, public agencies, and tribal

governments to expand reach and deepen impact in making sustainable change that alleviates the impact

private, or nonprofit sector.

 is a full-time, team-based, residential program for 18–26-year-olds. Whether building

members engage in a variety of community identified projects during their service term, while developing

leadership, teamwork, and professional skills. AmeriCorps NCCC FEMA Corps serves communities, in

coordination with FEMA, through disaster preparedness, response, and recovery.

AmeriCorps Seniors Senior Companions provides grants to organizations to engage low-income

Americans aged 55 and older in providing supportive, individualized services to help homebound seniors

and other adults maintain their dignity and independence. In 2022, Seniors Companions in Utah provided

independent living support to more than 710 individuals.

AmeriCorps Seniors RSVP provides grants to organizations to engage Americans aged 55 and older in

communities, expand racial equity, and solidify service to others as a national commitment.

9/11 National Day of Service and Remembrance calls Americans across the country to volunteer in their

local communities in tribute to the individuals lost and injured in the attacks, first responders, and the many
