Each year, approximately 200,000 Americans meet critical community needs through service in AmeriCorps nationwide. With funding from AmeriCorps that is administered by Volunteer Florida, AmeriCorps members in Florida dedicate a term of intensive service and receive workforce development training, living stipends, education awards, and professional development.
AmeriCorps programs in Florida tackle essential community needs such as education, disaster services, economic opportunity, conservation and natural resources, healthy futures, and support for veterans and military families. Examples of member activities include tutoring and mentoring youth, responding to local disasters, restoring natural habitats, and providing job training and placement services.
Priority consideration will be given when projects demonstrate support for the state’s economic competitiveness and workforce development, prioritize Florida’s environment and natural resources, and/or preserve the quality of life and connectedness of the state’s communities, including the movement of people and goods.
Organizations interested in applying to the guidance should submit their response by February 12, 2026, at 5:00 PM (EST). To view the guidance and application instructions, please click here.
