The Service SignalLaunch and recruitment content
Plan a recruitment push, then get posts, emails and flyers aimed at the young people and career-changers you want to reach.
Who it's for
For states building service programs through Service United
Service United is the National Governors Association's 2026–2027 chair's campaign to help states plan, build and grow their own service programs, with Service United Fund grants of up to $1.5 million. The Service Signal helps those states and their partners recruit participants and host sites, and show governors, legislators and funders what the program is achieving.
Created by the America Learns Service Signal Public Relations Team
What gets in the way
- Launching a new program that participants, families and employers haven't heard of yet
- Recruiting host-site partners across education, health, environment and other fields
- Showing early results to the governor's office, legislators and philanthropic funders
How The Service Signal helps
Host-site outreach
Draft clear, persuasive messages inviting nonprofits, employers, local governments and colleges to host participants.
Field Kits for partners
Share ready-to-adapt messaging and images with host sites and programs so the launch sounds consistent statewide.
Stories for leaders and funders
Turn participant stories and program data into briefs and updates for state leaders and the funders behind your grant.
How this is different from just using a chatbot
A chatbot starts from a blank box every time. The Service Signal starts from your program and stays with you through the work.
