AmeriCorps volunteers work to help local communities across America address the most common challenges facing veterans, returning service members, and their families by transforming goodwill into service through a project called the Community Blueprint. The Community Blueprint has grown in the past year to encompass over 15 communities across America and is focused on many impact areas, including family strength. The sacrifices made by military families are great and in order to strengthen our communities and repay their devoted service, we must ease the difficulties faced by military families.
