The AmeriCorps Seniors Professional Network (ASPN) represents over 22,000 older adults and their program directors serving through national service grant programs. AmeriCorps Seniors are volunteers age 55 and older who mentor and tutor young children or serve frail elders to enable them to live in their own homes. ASPN provides education to member programs, informs lawmakers of the progress and results of volunteer service, and advises the federal AmeriCorps agency on policy and best practices.
