Corporation for National and Community Service federal obligations in Virginia

$78,545,378 in USAspending.gov obligations is the Corporation for National and Community Service total coded to Virginia, across 57 awards. The pair is CNCS plus Virginia, not a statewide volunteer census. Awarding-agency 485 and Virginia (VA) are the pair. Fifty-seven records against $78,545,378 is a thin CNCS file, similar in row count to the California NARA cell and still not a member headcount. The implied mean is about $1.38 million per award — a quotient of two packet facts, not a typical project. USAspending.gov is the source. Amounts are obligations, not outlays.

Key figures

  • CNCS in Virginia: $78,545,378 across 57 USAspending awards.
  • Implied mean about $1.38 million per record — a packet quotient, not a typical project.
  • Agency 485 × VA is not a measure of unique members, named programs, or unique service hours.
  • Cite obligations from USAspending.gov, not outlays.
  • Richmond, Northern Virginia, Hampton Roads, and the rest of the counties share one VA place-of-performance tag.

A thin CNCS file on Virginia

Corporation for National and Community Service as awarding agency, Virginia as place-of-performance: 57 records summing to $78,545,378. A Corporation for National and Community Service award coded outside VA is out. An award in Virginia from a different awarding agency is out even if the topic sounds related. Virginia (VA) excludes Maryland, District of Columbia, North Carolina, West Virginia, Kentucky, and Tennessee. A DC-coded award is DC even if members serve in Virginia. Awarding agency 485 is the Corporation parent. AmeriCorps program names are unpublished splits.

Fifty-seven records against $78,545,378 is a thin CNCS file, similar in row count to the California NARA cell and still not a member headcount. Unique recipients are unpublished. Do not read 57 as 57 unique members, named programs, or unique service hours. The overlay Corporation for National and Community Service in Virginia is the both-keys table. Virginia federal spending is the all-agency state hub. Corporation for National and Community Service is the agency book without a VA filter. All spending ties lists other joins. Named commissions and host sites are unpublished. Do not treat 57 as unique Virginia AmeriCorps programs. Correlation is not causation: Virginia did not cause $78,545,378 by existing as a large or small place. Population and outcome scores are not packet facts. The join is 485 × VA only.

Not AmeriCorps members or named host sites

$78,545,378 does not measure unique members, named programs, or unique service hours. Those series are not USAspending fields on this aggregate. The cell sums award obligations with awarding-agency code 485 and a VA place-of-performance tag. Awarding agency 485 is the Corporation parent. AmeriCorps program names are unpublished splits.

Do not treat 57 awards as a census of unique members, named programs, or unique service hours. Parent hubs are supposed to be larger than this pair. If Virginia federal spending or Corporation for National and Community Service matched $78,545,378 and 57, the join would be pointless. Use the overlay when both keys must stay on. Maryland, District of Columbia, and North Carolina CNCS joins are other pairs, not addends. State-commission folklore is unpublished. Keep $78,545,378 on the 485 × VA pair.

Virginia statewide, not a Richmond-versus-NOVA split

Place of performance VA is a geography tag on the award, not a metro list and not a commuting zone. Virginia (VA) excludes Maryland, District of Columbia, North Carolina, West Virginia, Kentucky, and Tennessee. A DC-coded award is DC even if members serve in Virginia. Recipient address can differ from that state tag. Richmond, Northern Virginia, Hampton Roads, and the rest of the counties share one VA stamp.

Named commissions and host sites are unpublished. Do not treat 57 as unique Virginia AmeriCorps programs. This packet does not split $78,545,378 by city, county, or named facility. 57 awards stay statewide. A county table would be a different extract. FEC donation tables do not fund these USAspending obligations.

Few formula rows, still obligations

Even a thick or thin file records obligations, not necessarily outlays. $78,545,378 can include amounts that pay on a later schedule. Citing it as cash already sent in Virginia confuses two concepts. Deobligations and upward adjustments both move the total.

Virginia’s own budget is a different ledger. Mixing it with the 57-award USAspending file leaves this series. No fiscal year is published in this packet, so this page does not invent one. Keep the obligation label on $78,545,378. State-commission folklore is unpublished. Keep $78,545,378 on the 485 × VA pair.

How to cite CNCS in Virginia

Cite USAspending.gov: Corporation for National and Community Service (agency 485) obligated $78,545,378 on 57 awards coded to Virginia. Name both sides. Keep “obligations.” Do not relabel the total as unique members, named programs, or unique service hours. The pair is CNCS plus Virginia, not a statewide volunteer census.

Prefer Corporation for National and Community Service in Virginia if the overlay has refreshed after an ingest. Virginia federal spending still includes every other awarding agency tagged to VA. Corporation for National and Community Service is the 485 parent without the VA filter. All spending ties indexes other pairs. Do not add those parents into $78,545,378. A usable footnote names Corporation for National and Community Service, Virginia, $78,545,378, and 57. The compact headline $78.5 million is that same dollar total rounded. It is not a second extract. The implied mean near $1.38 million is $78,545,378 divided by 57. Means are not medians. USAspending.gov remains the originating system.
