What is AmeriCorps?

Now Enrolling

RoarCorps is part of EngageAR, Arkansas's AmeriCorps network. Nationwide, more than 1 million AmeriCorps members have served their communities since 1994.

Starting September 2026, 40 RoarCorps members will serve across Sebastian and Crawford Counties to tutor local kids, lead healthy living programs, protect green spaces, and support teen mental health, all while building real-world skills and a resume that stands out.

• Run garden workshops that teach families how to grow their own food.
• Restore native habitats across the River Valley.
• Mentor local teens as part of Arkansas's first-ever Youth Mental Health Corps cohort.

Small acts. Big roar.
