Learn and Serve America Reinvestment Act

This bill reauthorizes and increases funding for the Learn and Serve America program, providing $40 million annually starting in fiscal year 2026 for service-learning initiatives in schools. It expands eligibility to include local school districts and consortia of districts (instead of only state agencies), allowing them to apply for grants. The bill requires competitive grants for states, territories, and tribes to implement service-learning programs, with at least 2% reserved for tribal entities. It also mandates annual reports to Congress on how funds are distributed and used by different grantees. The program directly affects schools, students, and community organizations implementing service-learning projects.
