Three-Year Evaluation of Learn and Serve America Grantees, (A)

The Corporation for National and Community Service, with the assistance of Abt Associates and Brandeis University, launched the online version of the Learn and Serve program survey known as LASSIE (Learn and Serve Systems and Information Exchange) in the spring of 2004. This article looks at the characteristics of programs receiving funds between 2003 and 2006 using the information reported through the LASSIE system. In analyzing the data, we are able to look at differences between subgrantees receiving funds for all three years and those receiving funds for only one or two years of the grant cycle. The findings from this analysis are presented here.
