AmeriCorps Seniors is a network of volunteer programs for Americans aged 55 and older, connecting them with local organizations to serve their communities. AmeriCorps Seniors volunteers mentor youth, provide companionship to more fragile elders, assist with disaster relief, and help with other local projects. Volunteers are supported with training and insurance, and those in the Senior Companion and Foster Grandparent programs can receive a modest stipend if they meet income requirements

AmeriCorps State, National, & AmeriCorps VISTA

AmeriCorps State & National programs provide team-based direct service to address compelling needs locally, regionally, or nationwide. AmeriCorps VISTA assists agencies by developing their capacity to deliver on their service missions.

Some AmeriCorps members also receive a living stipend to allow them to serve full-time.
