## Resource

In this episode, we explore the powerful role AmeriCorps plays in supporting nonprofits and strengthening communities. Sarah is joined by representatives from AmeriCorps to break down how national service programs operate, what “capacity building” really means, and how organizations like DSACO benefit from these partnerships. We discuss how AmeriCorps differs from traditional volunteer programs, the types of service opportunities available, and how individuals can get involved. The conversation also highlights the real impact AmeriCorps members have on nonprofits, from expanding programs to building long-term sustainability. Listeners will gain insight into how AmeriCorps selects partner organizations, why supporting disability-focused nonprofits is so important, and what makes DSACO a meaningful service site. We also dive into the personal growth and leadership development AmeriCorps members experience through their service. This episode is a great listen for anyone interested in nonprofit work, advocacy, community impact, or getting involved in service programs. If you’re passionate about making a difference, this conversation will leave you inspired by the power of service and partnership.
