Report: The AmeriCorps Experience: Transformation through Service
Posted by Arizona State University on August 6, 2018
A new research report related to AmeriCorps was recently published by Arizona State University’s Morrison Institute. The report, The AmeriCorps Experience: Transformation through Service, was funded by CNCS’s Department of Research & Evaluation to better understand the employability and employment outcomes of AmeriCorps members. ASC CEO Kaira Esgate and Arizona Commission Director Bob Shogren served on the Advisory Board of the study; six commissions also participated in the research project.
The study expands upon Morrison Institute’s previous 2016 analysis of Arizona’s AmeriCorps programs to include findings from five states across the country. The findings suggest that strong personal and professional networks emerge within the AmeriCorps program, which leads to positive employment outcomes.
