LISC AmeriCorps

Federally funded by the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS), AmeriCorps is a network of local, state, and national service programs that connects over 70,000 Americans each year in intensive service to improve lives, strengthen communities and inspire civic engagement. More than 1 million people have served as AmeriCorps members nationwide. LISC has been connecting AmeriCorps members to the communities where we work since 1994. The AmeriCorps program serves a three-fold purpose:

  • Members serve the organizations where they are placed and lead valuable projects and programs;
  • Members engage the community in the revitalization of their own neighborhoods; and
  • Members develop skills, experience, and opportunities in the community development field.

LISC Los Angeles places passionate and dedicated volunteers with community development partners through two core AmeriCorps offerings: the LISC AmeriCorps Program and the LISC LA Housing Initiative Program (LA-HIP). Both the LISC AmeriCorps program and LA-HIP places passionate and dedicated volunteers with our local community development partners.
