The AmeriCorps members who serve in the Disaster Services department will assist their local territories with the development and the growth of our disaster services program. Members will prepare community members for disasters, respond to local and state-wide emergencies, and support the recovery of community members who have been affected by disasters. Members will serve approximately 40 hours per week for a total of 1,700 service hours in a 10.5-month term. Benefits include a bi-weekly stipend of $782.61, health and dental coverage, and childcare assistance to those who qualify. Upon successful completion, members will receive a combined education award of $10,000 to use towards qualified student loans, or future tuition, and may qualify for federal student loan forbearance during the period of service.
