This dataset provides comparisons of demographic group prevalence in AmeriCorps Member/Volunteers populations to that of the greater U.S. population. The odds ratio analysis was completed by the Office of the Chief Data Officer.
Population estimates were obtained from U.S. Census Bureau data reported in American Community Survey 5-Year tables DP05 (total U.S. populations) and S1701 (U.S. populations below poverty line), and socioeconomic status-related microdata maintained by IPUMS USA.
See Attached Document 'AmeriCorps Demographic Analysis Procedure.pdf' for a full technical documentation of the analysis.
