The American Çï¿ûÊÓƵ of Arts and Sciences, in partnership with California Volunteers, hosted a virtual symposium on national service. 

New research was undertaken by the Çï¿ûÊÓƵ to advance a recommendation in its bipartisan report, Our Common Purpose: Reinventing American Democracy for the 21st Century, to make a year of national service a universal experience for young Americans from diverse backgrounds. The Çï¿ûÊÓƵ collaborated with America’s Service Commissions and California Volunteers to convene focus groups in California and conduct state and national polling. 

This event featured champions of national service and data-driven strategies to increase interest in serving.
