Opening a Pipeline from National Service to Federal Service
Posted by on November 25, 2013
Whether it’s creating new pathways to employment, helping mayors improve their cities, or uniting Americans around an historical event, service weaves through the fabric of American life.
We know national service participants strengthen communities. And they can strengthen the federal workforce too. The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) announced new guidelines this week that encourage federal agencies to tap into the talent of past, current, and future AmeriCorps members and other national service participants. OPM’s announcement supports the mission of the President’s Task Force on Expanding National Service, which is designed to create a pipeline of Americans who are ready to enter public service and apply the skills they learn through national service.
