Spotlight on Training Resources

This month, we are highlighting resources from the AmeriCorps Seniors 2024 Convening - 30 Years of AmeriCorps: Reflect, Empower, Transform, Celebrate. We were thrilled to welcome 1,300 participants to our three-day gathering of AmeriCorps Seniors grantees and AmeriCorps Research and Evaluation partners in Baltimore, Md.
