Some key highlights from the report include the launch of Serve Colorado's three-year State Service Plan in February 2023. This plan is designed to align with the priorities of Governor Polis and Lieutenant Governor Primavera's administration and focuses on equity, partnership engagement, workforce development, and transparent communication.
In April 2023, Serve Colorado made history by signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the Colorado National Guard. This partnership is the first of its kind nationwide and aims to enhance recruitment channels and career pathways for both Guard and AmeriCorps members.
In November 2023, Serve Colorado introduced a new Quality Credentialing Framework at the national AmeriCorps Symposium. This framework enhances service-based learning structures and integrates stackable credentials into AmeriCorps service terms, aligning with workforce development needs across the state.
To coincide with the release of the 2023 Impact Report, Serve Colorado has also shared a special compilation video featuring the voices of AmeriCorps members and program staff. This video provides an intimate glimpse into the heart of their programs and highlights why they love to serve and their deep passion for AmeriCorps.
