Turning Ideas Into Action

Turning Ideas Into ActionLearn and Serve America created this kit to help you spread the word about service-learning and its impact on learning and transforming communities. You are on the front lines of making the case for service-learning and are one of its greatest advocates.

Across the country, service-learning programs help people connect academic and community-based curricula with community service. These efforts are helping mentor youth, feed the hungry, and improve the environment while re-engaging students in school, increasing their test scores, and providing them with workplace skills. Recent research shows that millions of young people are contributing hundreds of millions of hours to service-learning.

This service-learning communications kit user's guide provides the tools and information you need to spread the word about service-learning. It walks you through a step-by-step process and then provides additional strategies to tell your service-learning story. At the end of the guide, you will find links to additional resources to help grow service-learning programs.
