Serve America Act Amendments to the National and Community Service Act of 1990 and the Domestic Volunteer Service Act of 1973

Resumo

On April 21, 2009, President Obama signed into law the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act (Serve America Act). The Serve America Act reauthorizes and expands national service programs administered by the Corporation for National and Community Service ("the Corporation") by amending the National and Community Service Act of 1990 (NCSA) and the Domestic Volunteer Service Act of 1973 (DVSA). The Corporation publishes this interim final rule to implement time-sensitive changes that are required by the Serve America Act to take effect on October 1, 2009. In addition to aligning statutory amendments with the NCSA and DVSA, the interim final rule reorders and renumbers certain parts of the existing regulations and expands the construction and use of defined terms.
