Sign On Now to Support Policy Ideas for Strengthening and Expanding National Service Opportunities

Voices for National Service has prepared a white paper outlining a set of policy ideas for strengthening and expanding national service opportunities within the U.S. This paper was drafted to be shared with all the presidential candidates, in hopes that they will be inspired to add these national service recommendations - or some of their own - to their policy platforms.

The recommendations cover the national service spectrum, from K-12 service-learning to Senior Corps. They range in scope from big ideas that could chart the next generation of service to others that will expand upon what we know already works. As a nonpartisan organization, Voices for National Service hopes to see national service reflected in the agendas of both Republican and Democratic candidates.

Please review the executive summary and white paper and let us know if you would like to sign-on in support of the ideas contained in the memo.

DEADLINE FOR SIGNATURES: Friday, June 8, 12pm EST. To sign on - email info@voicesforservice.org. Please provide your organization's full name and the name of your CEO or Executive Director.
