VI.1.a: Board of Directors

Hold public meetings and hear directly from members of the public in other events.

Other Information:

The Corporation is governed by a bipartisan Board of Directors appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate. The Board sets policies and direction for the Corporation, reviews and approves the strategic plan, makes recommendations on programming, evaluation, and other operational issues, advises the President and the Congress concerning developments in national and community service and carries out other duties. The Board holds public meetings three times a year, during which time members of the public have an opportunity to make public comments, and minutes of the meetings are shared on our websites. Board members also hear directly from members of the public in other events they participate in, such as service projects, conferences, and site visits. The AmeriCorps NCCC program has an Advisory Board, which advises the National Director on issues concerning the administration of the NCCC and helps to further the mission of the program.
