Federal Reports

The AmeriCorps Office of Inspector General (AmeriCorps OIG) investigated an allegation that the President of the Great Lakes Community Conservation Corps (GLCCC) misused personal identifiable information provided by prospective AmeriCorps members at recruitment sessions to enroll them in AmeriCorps' Education Award Program, even though the members did not provide service. It was also alleged that these prospective members were enrolled in the MyAmeriCorps portal with the GLCCC President’s email address. AmeriCorps OIG’s investigation found that the GLCCC President used his email address to enroll 55 individuals as AmeriCorps members, and that at least one of the individuals was unaware that they were enrolled into an AmeriCorps program. AmeriCorps OIG further determined that the GLCCC President attended enrollment sessions of a partner organization that did not receive AmeriCorps funding in order to enroll members into GLCCC’s AmeriCorps program, and that hours members served for the partnership organization were counted as AmeriCorps service hours.
