Posted by AmeriCorps on December 20, 2022

Is your organization addressing a public health issue? Apply for Public Health AmeriCorps funding. Applications are due Wednesday, January 4, 2023.

AmeriCorps and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention joined forces to launch Public Health AmeriCorps and support the recruitment, training, and development of the next generation of public health leaders who will be ready to respond to the nation’s public health needs.

Funding is open to nonprofit, faith-based, tribal and community-based organizations; higher-education institutions; and state, local and territorial government entities, including local public health departments. Last year, more than 80 organizations were awarded more than $60 million. To learn more:
