Integrating service-learning programs into schools and universities

Providing new service opportunities for working Americans and retirees;

Expanding service initiatives that "engage disadvantaged young people and advance their education";

Expanding the capacity of nonprofit groups to innovate and expand successful programs across the country; and

Enabling more Americans to serve in the armed forces. Read Obama's full plan (PDF)
