Rulemaking related to rescission of chapters

    The Iowa Commission on Volunteer Service hereby rescinds Chapter 8, “Iowa Youth Mentoring Program Certification,” Chapter 9, “Iowa Summer Youth Corps,” Chapter 10, “Iowa Green Corps,” Chapter 11, “Iowa Reading Corps,” and Chapter 12, “RefugeeRISE AmeriCorps,” Iowa Administrative Code.

Purpose and Summary

     This rulemaking is the result of the Red Tape Review process outlined in Executive Order 10.

That rulemaking was submitted simultaneously (ARC 0474D, IAB 7/22/26).
