YouthBuild Affiliate programs who are part of the YouthBuild AmeriCorps Partnership receive a grant consisting of AmeriCorps slot positions for YouthBuild participants and funding to support operational items such as staff salaries, equipment, supplies, required member and staff criminal history background checks, CPR/first aid training, and other associated program and member expenses. YouthBuild AmeriCorps programs are responsible for providing funds (Private, State and Local Public) and other resources to match the federal funds they receive through the AmeriCorps grant.
