Between 2013 and 2015, the National Association of Community Health Centers (NACHC), Bethesda, MD, allowed a few AmeriCorps members to provide emotional support (doula care) to women during abortion procedures at three New York City clinics operated by the Institute for Family Health (IFH), a subgrantee. Investigators discovered that NACHC had disregarded the direction of CNCS’s General Counsel in 2010 to include in its training materials and member agreements the abortion prohibition precisely as stated in the Serve America Act.

An anonymous hotline complainant alleged AmeriCorps members were not paid their stipends due to timesheets their supervisor lost. The complainant also alleged the program was mismanaged and members were treated poorly by their supervisors.
A former AmeriCorps member contacted the hotline alleging that CNCS Management and grantee personnel failed to follow proper grievance procedures when they improperly terminated the member.
A hotline complainant alleged that a Florida Senior Corps grantee (1) inaccurately allocated staff time between the Senior Companion Program (SCP), Foster Grandparent Program (FGP), and Retired and Senior Volunteer Program (RSVP) grants; and (2) improperly used of Senior Corps volunteers (volunteers) assigned to SCP, resulting in inaccurate charges to the Senior Corps grants and noncompliance with program requirements. During the investigation CNCS-OIG investigators determined management staff allowed a majority of their volunteers to serve without a properly completed National Sex Offender Public Website (NSOPW) check.
