The Corporation's State Offices are federal offices staffed by federal employees in the state. They conduct public outreach and program support. They are directly responsible for developing grants and projects and for overseeing all Senior Corps and AmeriCorps VISTA projects within their states.
State Service Commissions provide Corporation funding to AmeriCorps state programs in their states through annual grant competitions. In addition, the Commissions manage, monitor and evaluate these AmeriCorps programs and are also charged with encouraging volunteering in their states.
State Education Agencies (SEAs) receive Formula-based funds from Learn and Serve America. Most of the funds are distributed by subgrant to schools and school districts who work with one or more community partner organizations to create service-learning projects that simultaneously meet community needs and support the development of students’ academic, civic, and service skills.
