Green Iowa AmeriCorps was recently announced as the America's Service Commission (ASC) 2022 Outstanding Service Program of the year! The Outstanding Service Program award is presented to organizations that commit themselves to making a difference in their communities by leveraging the power of national and/or community service. The organizations nominated for this award must perform meaningful service, maintain a strong record of compliance, and demonstrate a lasting impact on their members, community, and state.
We are humbled to have received this award and it would not have been possible without the support and hard work from our hosts, supervisors, program partners, and members. A big thank you to you all for making this possible!
You can watch the full award ceremony on YouTube at 2022 ASC Innovation & Leadership Awards (Green Iowa's award announcement is at 1:02:40)
The University of Northern Iowa, where our program is housed, has also published an article where you can read more about it!
