National Service Fellows Program

The National Service Fellows program, launched by the Corporation for National Service in 1997, involves a team of individual researchers who develop and promote models of quality service that are responsive to the needs of communities. The goal of the program is to strengthen national service through continuous learning, new models, strong networks, and professional growth.
