Last month, three legislators visited schools in Barnum and Robbinsdale, where they learned how @math_corps, @reading_corps, and teacher preparation programs make a powerful impact. Thanks Sen. @JasonRarick, Rep. Mary Clardy, and @RepMueller for joining us!
Loved this op-ed in the @StarTribune: "For the last two decades, legislators could have funded any program that might help young readers, but they made an intentional choice to invest in a proven approach." – in @reading_corps! https://t.co/VsSQLOpAc6 @Results4America

Happy #EarthDay! We 💚 the 160+ #AmeriCorps members who help care for MN's environment. They conduct energy audits, maintain trails, plant trees, fight fires, manage invasive species, & educate Minnesotans about the environment. Stay tuned for some #AmeriCorps news later today!
Bemidji Mayor Jorge Prince, Northfield Mayor Rhonda Pownell, and Duluth Mayor Roger J Reinert celebrated AmeriCorps in Minnesota too – they shared about the dedication and commitment of AmeriCorps members in their communities (photos are of an event in Duluth).
