Youth Corps is an AmeriCorps program designed specifically for youth ages 16-25. AmeriCorps is a national service program that engages individuals in intensive community service work with the goal of "helping others and meeting critical needs in the community. In 2009, the Iowa legislature passed a bill prioritizing the development of Iowa Summer Youth Corps programming. Such programs would involve disadvantaged youth (ages 16-25) in meaningful service opportunities that enrich learning experiences, teach civic responsibility, and fulfill unmet community needs.
