AmeriCorps Educational Award Programs

The Marin Conservation Corps, along with many local and state conservation corps programs are in partnership with NASCC (National Association of Service and Conservation Corps). Through NASCC, Marin Conservation Corps is a member of "Youth Corps Serve" -- a partnership with the Corporation for National Service that is built on the premise that "every corpsmember in America deserves the opportunity to earn an AmeriCorps Educational Award".

The AmeriCorps Education Awards Program is very similar to a regular AmeriCorps program. The participants are considered "AmeriCorps" members, they have the same AmeriCorps goals, commitments, prohibited activities, and responsibilities. The main difference is that Education Award Program AmeriCorps members receive an hourly wage instead of a stipend, and do not receive health insurance or housing.
