CHICAGO (AP) - Volunteering has helped define a generation of young
Americans
who are known for their do-gooder ways. Many high schools require
community service
before graduation. And these days, donating time to a charitable
organization is all but
expected on a young person's college or job application.
Even so, an analysis of federal data has found that the percentage of
teens who volunteer
dipped in recent years, ending an upward trend that began after the
terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.
"They're still volunteering at higher rates than their parents did,"
says Peter Levine, director
of Tufts University's Center for Information & Research on Civic
Learning & Engagement,
also known as CIRCLE.
But, he adds, there's been "a loss of momentum," which he hopes recent
passage of the
federal Serve America Act will help address.
