number of individual placement models

in 1994 and, for this grant cycle,

discourages programs that place

AmeriCorps Members individually

across many organizations without

providing opportunities for them to

meet, share experiences and reflection,

and learn from one another to better

understand the collective impact they

have on their community.

6. Localities for Concentration

A number of comments recommended

that the Corporation retain the policy of

providing special consideration for

projects in areas that are

environmentally distressed or adversely

affected by Federal actions related to the

management of Federal lands resulting

in significant regional job losses and

economic dislocation. Accordingly, the

Corporation has adopted language to

this end. ‘‘If empowerment zones and

enterprise communities have been

officially designated by HUD by

February 28, 1995, the Corporation will

give preference to applicants who

propose to sponsor AmeriCorps service

activities in those areas. The

Corporation will also give preference to

areas impacted by military downsizing.’’

HUD has officially designated

empowerment zones and enterprise

communities. Programs proposing to

operate in these areas will receive a

preference.

7. Special Consideration for Past

Corporation-Funded Programs

Several comments requested a change

in Corporation policy regarding special

consideration for past Corporation

funded programs. The comments

suggested that the Corporation allow the

programs to apply as renewals and not

new applicants, and that the

Corporation waive the 15% local match.

The Corporation has declined to make

these changes. Accordingly, the policy

reads as follows:

The following programs were funded

previously, but are no longer eligible to

apply directly to the Corporation. If

these programs apply through the state

process and if they are determined to be

high quality, they will receive

preference over other high quality

programs during the Corporation

selection process. Because their current

funding is based upon 1994 priorities,

they may apply under either 1994 or

1995 priorities, but are encouraged to

address those for 1995. They must apply

to the state using the application

instructions for new programs.

• Defense Conversion Assistance

Programs.

• Summer of Safety Continuation

Programs.

• Subtitle D programs originally

funded for two-year grants under the

National and Community Service Act of

1990. These programs did not compete

under the 1994 funding cycle.

• Subtitle H Programs of the National

and Community Service Act of 1993

renewed from Subtitle E programs

under the National and Community

Service Act of 1990.

By way of further explanation, the

requirement that Subtitle D programs

funded with two-year grants apply as

new applicants refers to those subtitle D

programs that were funded by the

former Commission on National and

Community Service for the 1993 and

1994 funding cycles.

8. Other

A number of other comments

concerned the following issues: Health

Care Eligibility—Request to allow

Members to include dependents on the

AmeriCorps health plan at the cost of

the Member. Child Care Eligibility—

Request for a more inclusive policy that

is not based on income levels, or prorating awards based on income.

Education Awards Only Requirements—

Request that the Corporation cover

health care and child care costs for

programs receiving Education Awards

Only. These comments concern

statutory provisions which cannot be

changed by regulations. They can only

be changed through amendments to the

legislation. The Corporation is currently

considering possible amendments to our

legislation, and the above comments

will be considered.
