WASHINGTON — One of the largest federal civil service organizations has let go of scores of young volunteers, The Post has learned — shortly after the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) visited the agency’s headquarters. Volunteers with AmeriCorps’ National Civilian Community Corps (NCCC) program were abruptly sent notices Tuesday instructing them to pack up and go home, according to a memo obtained by The Post. “In alignment with the Trump-Vance Administration priorities … AmeriCorps NCCC is working within new operational parameters that impact the program’s ability to sustain program operations,” the memo said.
