Hours Calendar
You are serving as a minimum time AmeriCorps Member. This means you are required to complete 300 hours of service in one year. This may break down many different ways. However, overall, we expect you to serve about the same number of hours each week throughout the year to provide consistency. On average, we suggest you serve about 6 hours a week. This will allow for two weeks of no service (for vacations, holidays, or times when you are ill). You can use OnCorps to help you plan your hours most appropriately for your schedule.
