Conservation and Energy Independence
AmeriCorps works nationally to increase natural conservation alongside hunters, farmers, and Indigenous peoples; strengthen community resilience; prepare and respond to natural disasters; and prepare the next generation of workers for innovative jobs in environmental science fields. AmeriCorps members and AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers improve energy efficiency and save the public energy costs by conducting audits, weatherizing homes, and increasing access to affordable energy systems.
Improving Parks and Public Lands
For nearly three decades, AmeriCorps has worked closely with other federal agencies, Governor-appointed State Service Commissions, and hundreds of nonprofit partners. Last year, AmeriCorps members and AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers treated more than 800,000 acres of parks and public land and treated nearly 30,000 miles of trails and rivers.
