Gen Stan McChrystal on his advocacy for National Service for 1M young Americans

Investing in universal national service — engaging one million young Americans annually in paid, full-time civilian national service — is the most important strategy we can implement to ensure the strength and security of our nation.

At a time of unprecedented inequality, national service can help fuel economic recovery by teaching young Americans new skills and preparing them for careers through real life experience and professional development. National service can provide economic opportunity while preserving the planet for the next generation, create a more informed public that rejects misinformation and demagoguery, and strengthen cohesion of the American citizenry. A key part of a strong democracy is building an inclusive economy and social mobility.
