Dataset of total payments made to higher education and loan holding institutions from Fiscal Year 1995 through Fiscal Year 2016, aggregated by state

The Current Population Survey Civic Engagement and Volunteering (CEV) Supplement is the most robust longitudinal survey about volunteerism and other forms of civic engagement in the United States. Produced by AmeriCorps in partnership with the U.S. Census Bureau, the CEV takes the pulse of our nation’s civic health every two years. The CEV can support evidence-based decision making and efforts to understand how people make a difference in communities across the country.

The findings on this page are based on data collected in September of 2017, 2019, and 2021. All figures are weighted to account for the random selection of eligible respondents and missing data due to nonresponse. They reflect national rates of 17 measures of civic engagement. Please see column descriptions for details.

A spreadsheet with all of these figures is provided as an attachment along with additional resources about the CEV data. Click on "Show More" to view and download.

- This dataset provides comparisons of demographic group prevalence in AmeriCorps Member/Volunteers populations to that of the greater U.S. population. The odds ratio analysis was completed by the Office of the Chief Data Officer.
- Population estimates were obtained from U.S. Census Bureau data reported in American Community Survey 5-Year tables DP05 (total U.S. populations) and S1701 (U.S. populations below poverty line), and socioeconomic status-related microdata maintained by IPUMS USA.
- See Attached Document 'AmeriCorps Demographic Analysis Procedure.pdf' for a full technical documentation of the analysis.

Summary dataset of total payments made to higher education and loan holding institutions from Fiscal Year 1995 through Fiscal Year 2016, aggregated by institution.

Employers of National Service connects AmeriCorps and Peace Corps alumni with employers from the private, public, and nonprofit sectors.

Through this initiative, employers have increased access to a dedicated, highly qualified, and mission-oriented pool of potential employees, and national service alumni have additional opportunities to apply their skills in the workplace.

More than 500 employers are now a part of the Employers of National Service program which recognizes the valuable skills gained by more 1 million Americans who have participated in AmeriCorps since 1994 and the 215,000 who have participated in the Peace Corps since 1961.

Summary dataset of total payments made to higher education and loan holding institutions from Fiscal Year 2020 aggregated by institution.

The data is prepared using AmeriCorps members who began service on any day in fiscal year (FY) 2017. The members may have served 1 to 365 days during their term. Members who are in never served, disqualified, pre-service, or deferred statuses were excluded from this analysis.
AmeriCorps VISTA and AmeriCorps NCCC race and ethnicity data come from the member application to serve. The code to extract the data between the two programs is the same.
The ASN race and ethnicity data comes from the enrollment form. The enrollment form may exist multiple times if the member enrolled in more than one term. It is not uncommon for each enrollment form to have conflicting information about the member’s race and ethnicity. The member may have enrollment form data for terms served outside of the timeframe of the dataset. For example, if we are reporting on members who began service in FY17, then a member who also served in FY16 may have race and ethnicity information in the FY16 enrollment form and no race or ethnicity information or conflicting information in the FY17 enrollment form. In the case of conflicting information, this analysis assumes each instance of race designation is correct. If a member reports themselves as “Asian or Asian American” in one enrollment form and “White” in another enrollment form, then the analysis categorizes this person as someone who identifies with multiple race selections vs. one or the other. In the case of ethnicity, if a member indicates that they are not Hispanic or Latino/a in one form, but that they are in another, this analysis assumes the affirmative—and they will be categorized as Hispanic or Latino/a. Lastly, the totals include the total results from the query plus the difference between the query and the raw count of members who started service in that fiscal year. The members who did not have a record in the invite table and enrollment table were added to the non-response category.
Senior Corps Figures come from the Annual Progress Report Supplement as of April 11, 2018.
Percentages are calculated from totals of the subcategories, excluding the non-response categories.
