Florida 2006 - 2007

Information on the 2006 - 2007 program year current as of February 1, 2007

AmeriCorps: This year AmeriCorps will provide more than 1,700 individuals the opportunity to

provide intensive, results-driven service to meet education, environmental, public safety and other

pressing needs in communities across Florida. Roughly three-quarters of all AmeriCorps grant funding

goes to the Governor-appointed Ounce of Prevention Fund of Florida, which in turn awards grants to

nonprofit groups to respond to local needs. Most of the remainder of the grant funding is distributed by

the Corporation directly to multi-state and national organizations through a competitive grants process.

Other individuals will serve through AmeriCorps*VISTA, whose members help bring individuals and

communities out of poverty by serving full-time to fight illiteracy, improve health services, create

businesses and increase housing opportunities, and AmeriCorps*NCCC (National Civilian Community

Corps), a 10-month, full time residential program for men and women between the ages of 18 and 24.

In exchange for their service, AmeriCorps members earn an education award of up to $4,725 that can

be used to pay for college or to pay back qualified student loans. Since 1994, more than 10,000 Florida

residents have qualified for Americorps Education Awards totaling more than $36,800,000. 

Learn and Serve America: Learn and Serve America provides grants to schools, colleges,

and nonprofit groups to support efforts to engage more than 39,000 Florida students in community

service linked to academic achievement and the development of civic skills. This type of learning, called

service learning, improves communities while preparing young people for a lifetime of responsible

citizenship. In addition to providing grants, Learn and Serve America serves as a resource on service

and service-learning to teachers, faculty members, schools, and community groups.

Meeting community needs in Florida. More than 69,000 people of all ages and backgrounds are helping to

meet local needs, strengthen communities, and increase civic engagement through 247 national service projects across

Florida. Serving with national and local nonprofits, schools, faith-based organizations and other groups, these citizens tutor

and mentor children, coordinate after-school programs, build homes, conduct neighborhood patrols, restore the

environment, respond to disasters, build nonprofit capacity and recruit and manage volunteers. This year, the Corporation

for National and Community Service will commit more than $31,500,000 to support Florida communities through three

national service initiatives: 

Senior Corps: More than 28,000 seniors in Florida contribute their time and talents in one of three

Senior Corps programs. Foster Grandparents serve one-on-one as tutors and mentors to more than

10,000 young people who have special needs. Senior Companions help more than 2,900 homebound

seniors and other adults maintain independence in their own homes. Retired and Senior Volunteer

Program (RSVP) volunteers conduct safety patrols for local police departments, participate in

environmental projects, tutor and mentor youth, respond to natural disasters, and provide other services

through more than 2,900 groups across Florida.

Together with the USA Freedom Corps, the Corporation for National and Community Service is working to build a

culture of citizenship, service, and responsibility in America. To learn more about the Corporation or any of its programs,

visit www.nationalservice.gov or call 202-606-5000 or TTY 202-565-2799.
