The Corporation for National and Community Service (hereinafter the “Corporation’’) announces the anticipated availability--subject to Congressional appropriation-- of approximately $40 million of Learn and Serve America funds to implement and support School-Based, Community-Based, and Higher Education service-learning programs in FY 2006. See the School-Based and Higher Education NOFOs for information about those competitions.
The purpose of this grant competition is to promote the development and sustainability of high-quality community-based service-learning programs in youth-serving community organizations across the nation. Funds will be used by intermediary organizations to create curriculum materials; support training and technical assistance activities; make subgrants to local organizations that will implement service-learning programs for youth ages five to seventeen; and strengthen, expand, and anchor a network of youth-serving community-based organizations that implement service-learning programs.
Applicants are encouraged to develop proposals that demonstrate their ability to engage significant numbers of youth ages five to seventeen, particularly youth in disadvantaged circumstances, in high-quality service-learning; create new, or strengthen existing, partnerships with a variety of youth-serving institutions (K-12 schools, colleges, volunteer centers, faith-based organizations, etc); engage youth in intensive service-learning through the summer and/or other school holidays; and develop programs that leverage additional resources, including volunteers, at the local level.
