SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The National Civilian Community Corps is an
AmeriCorps program of the Corporation for National and Community
Service. NCCC manages teams of young adults to conduct service projects
across the nation. Teams include approximately twelve 18-24 year old
men and women of diverse social, economic, and educational backgrounds,
and a trained team leader. Projects are typically 6 to 8 weeks in
duration; the period of service for larger, more complex projects can
be extended.
Eligibility
Private nonprofit organizations, governmental entities at the
federal, state, and local levels, educational institutions, community-
based organizations, and Native American Tribal Councils are eligible
to submit proposals. Proposals are accepted, reviewed, and approved
with consideration for compelling need, geographical distribution,
availability of teams, and NCCC costs related to team deployment.
Cost
There is no charge for the services of an NCCC team or its
transportation; however, collaborating organizations are expected to
provide the necessary materials, equipment, and technical supervision
for projects, as well as assist with food and lodging if the project is
beyond a reasonable commuting distance from the NCCC campus. NCCC does
not provide financial grants of any kind in association with this
program.
