The passage of the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act provided Learn and Serve America with the authority to support Innovative and Community-Based Service-Learning programs, including Summer of Service. These grants will support collaborative efforts to establish or implement service-learning programs during the summer months. Programs will engage middle school students (students who will be enrolled in grades 6 through 9 in the school year following the end of the summer) in community-based service-learning projects that are intensive, structured, supervised, and designed to produce identifiable improvements to the community. This opportunity should provide youth, particularly those from disadvantaged circumstances, with service-learning experiences that will motivate them to become more civically engaged and aspire to obtain higher education. Program participants must complete at least 100 hours of service within the summer program. For this competition, service activities must address environmental and/or disaster preparedness issues relevant to the community served.
