As AmeriCorps marks its 30th anniversary, CEO Michael Smith, joins the Mo News podcast to discuss the state of volunteerism in America. We explore the recent decline in volunteerism and how AmeriCorps is working to provide opportunities for millions of Americans—ages 18 to 80 and up—to get involved. We also delve into the surprising health benefits of volunteering, especially as the country faces an epidemic of loneliness. This episode highlights the power of community engagement and the crucial role volunteering plays in both individual well-being and societal health. — Mosheh Oinounou (@mosheh) is an Emmy and Murrow award-winning journalist.
