Learn and Serve America’s School- and Community-Based program provides grants to State Education Agencies and to nonprofit organizations. These grantees, sometimes called intermediaries, in turn, make grants to local schools and community organizations to implement service-learning programs for young people of elementary and secondary school age. The intermediaries make subgrants; they also provide training and technical assistance, conduct program evaluation, facilitate peer networks of service-learning practitioners, and support service-learning throughout their network. At the local level, grantees of these intermediaries create new service-learning programs, replicate existing programs, and train staff, faculty, adult volunteers and students in service-learning. Some local programs make focus their efforts on recruiting, training, and making use of adult volunteers to support their service-learning programs.
In most cases, grantees provide sub-grants to schools, institutions of higher education, and community-based organizations to operate local service-learning programs.
