2026 National Direct Consultation and Applications

National Direct Consultation requires multi-state (also known as national direct) applicants applying for competitive AmeriCorps funding to consult with the state or territorial service commission in the locations in which they are applying to place members. National Direct Consultation was established to help increase collaboration and coordination among national service programs, which in turn supports the efficient use of national service funds in each state.

In order to streamline the consultation process between multi-state applicants and service commissions, America's Service Commission offers an online form that multi-state applicants can complete to initiate consultation with applicable participating commissions. For the FY26 AmeriCorps State and National Grant Funding Opportunity, all 52 state and territorial service commissions are participating.

Please submit the consultation form
