Hello everyone –

Thank you for participating in the third set of AmeriCorps Recovery calls and for your hard work at figuring how best to implement the Recovery Act in your states and with your programs.

We are in the process of updating the FAQs and the guidance to reflect your most recent questions. In particular, we are developing clearer guidance regarding requests for match waivers that will include specific scenarios. The recent calls made it clear that we had more work to do on that. You will receive the updates the first part of next week. They will also be posted on the website at that time.

In the meantime, attached is the Employment and Skills Training performance measure that was accidentally omitted.

Thanks again and keep sending in your questions and scenarios. They are very helpful.

Lois Nembhard
Acting Director
