Are you seeking extra people power to tackle needs in your community? AmeriCorps NCCC partners with a variety of nonprofit and governmental agencies, who design a project to address an identified community need and sends a team of 8-10 young adults to be the people power behind it by living and serving in that community for typically 6-8 weeks at a time.
AmeriCorps NCCC is seeking partners for projects taking place in 2024. Available project dates and deadlines along with the types of service they can provide are outlined on their Request for Proposals with the first one being due November 1, 2023 for projects taking place in March – April 2024.

Already familiar with the program? Be sure you have the correct application materials if you’re looking to apply. They were updated in November 2022.
- The Project Concept Form and the Instructions may be downloaded here. Scroll to “How to apply – NCCC Traditional”, Step 2 for both documents. It works best to download the Concept Form to your computer and complete using Adobe Reader or similar software.
- Please note, if you are a returning potential partner, AmeriCorps NCCC updated their documents as of November 2022. The current documents expire in 2025.
