“AmeriCorps grants are awarded to eligible organizations proposing to engage AmeriCorps members in evidence-based or evidence-informed interventions to strengthen communities. In the FY 2019 AmeriCorps competition, CNCS seeks to prioritize the investment of national service resources in:
- Economic Opportunity – increasing economic opportunities for communities by engaging opportunity youth to prepare them for the workforce.
- Education – selection of one of the evidence-based interventions in three categories: School Readiness (three evidence-based interventions), K-12 success (nine evidence-based interventions), and Post-Secondary Support (one evidence-based intervention). In order to qualify for this priority, the applicants must be assessed as having Moderate or Strong evidence by the reviewers.
- Healthy Futures – reducing and/or preventing prescription drug and opioid abuse.
- Veterans and Military Families – positively impacting the quality of life of veterans and improving military family strength.
- Rural intermediaries – organizations that demonstrate measureable impact and primarily serve rural communities with limited resources and organizational infrastructure.
- Safer Communities – programs that focus on public safety, and/or partnerships between law enforcement and the community.
- Faith-based organizations.”
