AmeriCorps NCCC has been recently suddenly shut down due to budget cuts by DOGE. Americorps is a young adult volunteer service program that helps many people and communities. Its members build houses, maintain trails, help in schools, and are at the forefront of disaster relief to name a few. To shut this program down when its members are paid so little and do so much for this country is short sighted and greedy. What can we do? Spread the word, sign this change.org petition https://www.change.org/p/save-americorps-nccc and message your members of congress https://voicesforservice.org/. This program means a lot to me and so many others please do not let it disappear.

Thank you! This program is not as well known but it's kinda like peace corps and fema. I served my term in americorps years ago when I had no direction and it has such a positive effect on the communities it serves, to think it won't be around in the future to help other young adults in the same position that I was is very saddening. It's members aren't even paid that much they are given a living stipend to get by so to cut the program for budget reasons is crazy
