USA Freedom Corps Web Site is Now Up and Running

President launches USA Freedom Corps during State of the Union address

The generous spirit of the American people has fostered a great and long-standing tradition of service. Across the country groups large and small are mobilizing concerned citizens to improve lives and strengthen the civic fabric that holds our communities together.

The USA Freedom Corps, through its participating agencies and programs-- the newly created Citizen Corps, AmeriCorps, Senior Corps, and the Peace Corps-- will work with local officials and community groups to offer expanded service opportunities for Americans at home and abroad. Find more information and get involved.

This is a great idea. We all should be pleased to cooperate with a man who has brought decency back to the White House and leadership back to our nation.

Is there to be no arena free of government's tentacles?

Get the government out of charity work. They just muck it up.

I'm glad to see other Freepers are seeing through this kind of "Feel-good" nonsense.

What happened to "I trust the people, not the Government" ?

I don't think this is new- I thought McCain started this a while ago as one of his babies.

The president also mentioned faith based work. If people don't want to help through a program he mentioned, do it through a church. Either way, let's show what we're made of. Then, the more we do individually or through churches, the less we will need programs such as these.

No, I don't particularly like more government programs. I hope they can create a spirit of helping that makes them unnecessary.
