Actions under national service laws to be sub- ject to availability of appropriations. § 12501. Findings and purpose (a) Findings The Congress finds the following: (1) Throughout the United States, there are pressing unmet human, educational, environ- mental, and public safety needs. (2) Americans desire to affirm common re- sponsibilities and shared values, and join to- gether in positive experiences, that transcend race, religion, gender, age, disability, region, income, and education. (3) The rising costs of postsecondary edu- cation are putting higher education out of reach for an increasing number of citizens. (4) Americans of all ages can improve their communities and become better citizens through service to the United States. (5) Nonprofit organizations, local govern- ments, States, and the Federal Government are already supporting a wide variety of na- tional service programs that deliver needed services in a cost-effective manner. (6) Residents of low-income communities, es- pecially youth and young adults, can be em- powered through their service, and can help provide future community leadership. (b) Purpose It is the purpose of this chapter to— (1) meet the unmet human, educational, en- vironmental, and public safety needs of the United States, without displacing existing workers; (2) renew the ethic of civic responsibility and the spirit of community and service throughout the varied and diverse commu- nities of the United States; (3) expand educational opportunity by re- warding individuals who participate in na- tional service with an increased ability to pur- sue hig
