 Creating a More Open Government
The Corporation for National and Community Service is committed to the open government principles of transparency, participation, and collaboration. Under the Administration’s Open Government Initiative, we are taking steps to become more open. Between now and April, we will be developing a comprehensive Open Government Plan, and we want your input. Please let us know what kind of information you want to see, or share other ideas on how we can improve transparency, participation, and collaboration by sending an email to open@cns.gov.

Investing in National Service
On February 1, President Obama released his Fiscal Year 2011 budget request for the Corporation for National and Community Service. The request will strengthen our nation’s volunteer sector, foster innovation and civic engagement, and mobilize more than six million Americans to solve critical problems through national service. The budget proposes to expand AmeriCorps to a record-level 105,000 members, who in turn will leverage an additional three million community volunteers for the organizations they serve.
