New York State Commission for National and Community Service: service and volunteer starting point
New York
Use New York State Commission for National and Community Service to find state service, AmeriCorps and volunteer initiatives in NY.
AmeriCorps lists New York State Commission for National and Community Service as the state or territory service commission route for NY. State service commissions administer AmeriCorps funding and also encourage volunteering and special service initiatives. This is a statewide starting point, not a complete inventory of every nonprofit or volunteer opening.
Who qualifies
People seeking volunteer, service or AmeriCorps opportunities; individual programs set age, screening, residency, schedule and service requirements.
How to access it
Open the commission site and look for volunteer, AmeriCorps, service-year or community-service opportunities. Confirm the host organization, location, schedule, screening and current openings before committing.
Cost or fee
Free to use the public information route. Some service programs provide benefits; ordinary volunteer roles are generally unpaid.
