Volunteer West Virginia, the state’s Commission for National and Community Service, challenges West Virginians to strengthen their communities through service and volunteerism. The Commission administers West Virginia’s AmeriCorps service programs in cooperation with local and state grantees. We also administer additional programming to help meet the state’s volunteer and community service needs. Our programs focus on Volunteer Mobilization and Management, Educational Support, Community Building, Healthy Futures, Veterans and Military Families, Building Strong Nonprofits and Disaster Services.
