There is difficulty in alignment with AmeriCorps. While paying wages is not an issue for WorkFirst, paying the “match” that is required for AmeriCorps participants to work for us could be problematic, since using federal funds to pay a match to another federal program is prohibited.
If you have a source of state funds that could be used for the match, then it may be viable.
AmeriCorps members work 40-hour weeks. Be aware that they have a number of AmeriCorps program obligations such as service projects, attending AmeriCorps training conferences, and working on AmeriCorps performance objectives which may or may not be congruent with WF.
