About the President’s Council on Service and Civic Participation
In January of 2003, by Executive Order, President George W. Bush announced the formation of the President’s Council on Service and Civic Participation.

On January 27, 2005, President Bush amended the Executive Order, extending the President’s Council through January 2007.
