Agency Cooperation


Office of Inspector General Cooperation and Policy 102 

AmeriCorps' impactful work in communities nationwide stems directly from the dedication of AmeriCorps and grantee staff to the agency’s mission. The agency's success, however, also relies on the responsible management of federal resources, effective stewardship of federal dollars, and unwavering accountability across all AmeriCorps programs. This is where the Office of Inspector General (OIG) plays a crucial role. The OIG strengthens AmeriCorps' ability to achieve its mission by preventing and detecting fraud, waste, and abuse, and by promoting efficiency and effectiveness throughout our programs and operations. Staff and grantee cooperation in providing information and assistance in a timely manner to the OIG is critical to AmeriCorps' continued success.
