AmeriCorps' National Civilian Community Corps (NCCC) has terminated many young volunteers, which aligns with new operational changes set by the Trump-Vance Administration. A memo indicated that volunteers should return home due to these changes affecting the program's sustainability. The budget for NCCC was significant, rising from $37.7 million in FY 2024 to a projected $42.7 million for the current year. Those affected might receive a pro-rated education award depending on their service hours completed before the abrupt termination.
"In alignment with the Trump-Vance Administration priorities ... AmeriCorps NCCC is working within new operational parameters that impact the program's ability to sustain program operations."
"I am hereby approving your early release from the NCCC program for compelling personal circumstances. Your early departure is considered compelling as it results from program circumstances beyond your control."
