A one-year commitment is required.
AmeriCorps State members provide 4-H positive youth development programming under the direction of the County Extension Agent.

Other activities include required trainings, monthly reports, administration of surveys, and data entry.

AmeriCorps members receive a variety of benefits: monthly living allowance ($1,037.50) and end-of-term education award ($3,697.50). To qualify for the education award, the member must complete the hour requirement. Other benefits are available based on eligibility (loan forbearance).
