[edit]
It is the purpose of this Act to—

(2) ask citizens of the United States, regardless of age or income, to engage in full-time or part-time service to the Nation;
(3) begin to call young people to serve in programs that will benefit the Nation and improve the life chances of the young through the acquisition of literacy and job skills;
(4) enable young Americans to make a sustained commitment to service by removing barriers to service that have been created by high education costs, loan indebtedness, and the cost of housing;
(5) build on the existing organizational framework of Federal, State, and local programs and agencies to expand full-time and part-time service opportunities for all citizens, particularly youth and older Americans;
(6) involve participants in activities that would not otherwise be performed by employed workers; and
(7) generate additional service hours each year to help meet human, educational, environmental, and public safety needs, particularly those needs relating to poverty.
