Building Community in America Act
To amend the National and Community Service Act of 1990 to expand participation by underrepresented populations in service programs, and for other purposes.
This bill aims to make it easier for people who are not often included in community service programs to participate. It would change the National and Community Service Act of 1990 to help more underrepresented groups get involved. This could include more people from various backgrounds, such as different races, ages, or economic statuses, in community service.
The bill would affect those who are currently underrepresented in service programs, aiming to give them more opportunities to contribute to their communities. This could lead to more diverse and inclusive community service experiences and better representation in these programs.
As of July 16, 2026, the bill was introduced and referred to the House Committee on Education and Workforce. This means it is in the early stages of the legislative process and will need to be reviewed and possibly amended before it can move forward for a vote.
