The USA Freedom Corps is focusing on specific areas
of need where volunteers are making a difference by developing new
opportunities for government and private institutions to enhance their
efforts for the benefit of our communities.
In order to mobilize individuals to meet these pressing community needs,
the USA Freedom Corps will offer support, research,
and other information regarding a particular area of need in America's
communities that can be uniquely addressed through volunteer time and
talents. Whenever possible, the USA Freedom Corps will also announce new and
expanded efforts by federal agencies that are a part of the USA Freedom Corps
coordinating council to enhance existing volunteer efforts in the priority
areas.
The USA Freedom Corps has identified the following areas of need to be
addressed:
youth achievement,
parks and open spaces,
healthy communities, and
homeland security.
