Abstract:
AmeriCorps is seeking to renew its Employers of National Service Enrollment Form and Survey. Organizations from all sectors either seeking to become, or already established as, Employers of National Service will be filling out these forms. This includes businesses, nonprofits, institutions of higher education, school districts, state and local governments, and Federal agencies. The purpose of the enrollment form is to document what the organization is committing to doing as an Employer of National Service and provide its contact information to AmeriCorps. The information gathered on the enrollment form will also allow AmeriCorps to display the organization's information accurately online, as a resource for job seekers. It will also enable AmeriCorps to speak to the diversity within the program's membership, both for internal planning and external audience use. The purpose of the survey form is to track the actions an employer has taken in the past year, gather stories of success or impact, collect quantitative hiring data relating to AmeriCorps and Peace Corps alumni, and provide organizations with an opportunity to update their contact and location data. AmeriCorps also seeks to continue using the currently approved information collection until the new information collection is approved by OMB. The currently approved information collection is due to expire on September 30, 2024.
