Nonprofit CEOs Hail AmeriCorps as Source for Future Leaders

 

Amity Tripp, Executive Director of AmeriCorps Alums, questions the panel of nonprofit CEOs and experts at a May 13 Brookings Institution policy forum on the Impact and Future of AmeriCorps.  At the forum, the Corporation for National and Community Service released a rigorous AmeriCorps longitudinal study that found AmeriCorps alums are significantly more civically engaged and more likely to pursue public service careers in the government and nonprofit sector than a comparison group.   Speakers at the forum commended AmeriCorps for being a pipeline to public service at a time when the nonprofit and government sectors are facing critical workforce and leadership deficits.
