Abstract:
All members in the three AmeriCorps programs—AmeriCorps State & National, VISTA, and the National Civilian Community Corps (NCCC)—are invited to complete a questionnaire upon completing their service term. The questionnaire asks members about their motivations for joining AmeriCorps, experiences while serving, and future plans and aspirations. Completion of the questionnaire is not required to successfully exit AmeriCorps or to receive any stipends, education awards, or other benefits of service. The purpose of the information collection is to learn more about the member experience and members' perceptions of their AmeriCorps experience so that AmeriCorps can improve the program. Members complete the questionnaire electronically through the AmeriCorps Member Portal. Members are invited to respond as their exit date nears and are allowed to respond for an indefinite period following the original invitation. AmeriCorps seeks to revise the current information collection. The questionnaire submitted for clearance will be revised to change response options for one of the questions or to add a new question, as needed, to better obtain information on self-efficacy. AmeriCorps also seeks to continue using the currently approved information collection until the renewed information collection is approved by OMB. The current application expires on May 31, 2024.
