Studies include a variety of populations and ranges from local to organizational, and national contexts throughout the United States. \n\nThis AmeriCorps Research Grantee dataset provides comprehensive information about the grantees and their studies. For each award, we identify the: 1) study title; 2) background; 3) cohort year; 4) principal investigators and their affiliated university; 5) study location(s) associated with each grant; 6) civic engagement topic areas; and 7) the research approach. Please be aware that there may be multiple rows corresponding to a single research grantee study, reflecting the various study sites where the grantee is actively involved. \n\nEach study was thematically coded to identify their civic engagement topic areas. An individual study can be categorized into more than one group. The topic areas include: \n\u2022\tArts & Culture, \n\u2022\tCommunity Development, \n\u2022\tEducation Across the Life Course, \n\u2022\tYouth Development, \n\u2022\tEnvironmental Stewardship, \n\u2022\tHealth & Social Wellbeing,\n\u2022\tNew Americans, \n\u2022\tEconomic Opportunity and Employment, \n\u2022\tSocial Capital, \n\u2022\tSenior Development, and \n\u2022\tVolunteering, Nonprofit Studies, and National Service.  \n\nAdditionally, the research grantees\u2019 studies were categorized into two distinct research approaches: traditional research and participatory research.\n\nTo learn more about the studies\u2019 civic engagement topic areas and research approaches, please refer to the AmeriCorps Research Grantee Data Dictionary under Attachments.\n\nFor up-to-date information surrounding the AmeriCorps Research Grantees please see:\n\u2022\tAmeriCorps Research Grantee Activities and Insights: https://americorps.gov/grantees-sponsors/research-evaluation/grantee-profiles\n\u2022\tParticipatory Research: https://americorps.gov/sites/default/files/document/2021_07_20_ParticipatoryResearchOnePager_ORE.pdf", "distribution": [{"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "downloadURL": "https://data.americorps.gov/api/views/hznm-uizi/rows.csv?accessType=DOWNLOAD", "mediaType": "text/csv"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "describedBy": "https://data.americorps.gov/api/views/hznm-uizi/columns.rdf", "describedByType": "application/rdf+xml", "downloadURL": "https://data.americorps.gov/api/views/hznm-uizi/rows.rdf?accessType=DOWNLOAD", "mediaType": "application/rdf+xml"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "describedBy": "https://data.americorps.gov/api/views/hznm-uizi/columns.json", "describedByType": "application/json", "downloadURL": "https://data.americorps.gov/api/views/hznm-uizi/rows.json?accessType=DOWNLOAD", "mediaType": "application/json"}, {"@type": "dcat:Distribution", "describedBy": "https://data.americorps.gov/api/views/hznm-uizi/columns.xml", "describedByType": "application/xml", "downloadURL": "https://data.americorps.gov/api/views/hznm-uizi/rows.xml?accessType=DOWNLOAD", "mediaType": "application/xml"}], "identifier": "https://data.americorps.gov/api/views/hznm-uizi", "issued": "2025-02-05", "keyword": ["americorps", "civic engagement", "evaluation", "grantees", "grants", "participatory research", "research", "volunteering", "volunteering and civic life in america"], "landingPage": "https://data.americorps.gov/d/hznm-uizi", "language": ["en-US"], "license": "https://www.usa.gov/government-works", "modified": "2025-02-05", "programCode": ["485:000"], "publisher": {"@type": "org:Organization", "name": "AmeriCorps Office of Research and Evaluation"}, "theme": ["National Service"], "title": "AmeriCorps Research Grantee Dataset"}
