SAVE THE DATE! The next AmeriCorps Texas Grantee Meeting will be held March 3-4, 2026. Details coming soon.
AmeriCorps Texas Grantee Meeting is an annual training event that brings AmeriCorps programs from across the state together to share best practices, connect with one another and OneStar staff, and receive essential training on grant and program management.
This year’s AmeriCorps Texas Grantee Meeting invites programs to pause, reflect, and reignite their sense of purpose under the theme Surviving to Thriving. In a year marked by uncertainty and unexpected challenges, it’s easy to feel like we’re simply hanging on. Yet through it all, AmeriCorps programs continue to be a steady force of innovation, compassion, and resilience—transforming communities and changing lives across Texas. Together, we’ll explore how to move beyond survival mode and embrace a thriving mindset, reconnecting with the power of national service and the incredible impact AmeriCorps members bring to every corner of our state. This gathering is a chance to celebrate our strengths, share new strategies and best practices, and chart a path forward where both our programs and our communities can truly flourish.
