Expands participation in national and community service programs for underrepresented populations.
The Building Community in America Act amends the National and Community Service Act of 1990 to expand participation in service programs for underrepresented populations. It prioritizes recruitment and training of underrepresented participants, including men, for activities such as youth coaching, mentoring, school support, conservation corps, and disaster response. The Act also amends the Domestic Volunteer Service Act of 1973 to include a similar priority for volunteer service projects.
