2017-2021 CEV Findings: State-Level Rates of Key Measures from the Current Population Survey Civic Engagement and Volunteering Supplement

The Current Population Survey Civic Engagement and Volunteering (CEV) Supplement is the most robust longitudinal survey about volunteerism and other forms of civic engagement in the United States. Produced by AmeriCorps in partnership with the U.S. Census Bureau, the CEV takes the pulse of our nation’s civic health every two years. The CEV can support evidence-based decision making and efforts to understand how people make a difference in communities across the country.

The findings on this page are based on data collected in September of 2017, 2019, and 2021. All figures are weighted to account for the random selection of eligible respondents and missing data due to nonresponse. They reflect state-level rates of six key measures of civic engagement:
FORMAL VOLUNTEERING: the estimated share of state residents who spent any time volunteering for any organization or association in the past year.
INFORMAL HELPING: the estimated share of state residents who exchanged favors with neighbors such as house sitting, watching each other’s children, lending tools, and other things to help each other at least once in the past year.
ORGANIZATIONAL MEMBERSHIP: the estimated share of state residents who belonged to any groups, organizations, or associations in the past year.
CHARITABLE GIVING: the estimated share of state residents who gave money or possessions with a combined value of more than $25 to a non-political group or organization such as a charity, school, or religious organization in the past year.
TALKING WITH FRIENDS AND FAMILY: the estimated share of state residents who talked to or spent time with friends and family at least once in the past year.
TALKING WITH NEIGHBORS: the estimated share of state residents who had a conversation or spent time with neighbors at least once in the past year.

《当前人口调查公民参与与志愿服务（CEV）补充调查》是美国关于志愿服务及其他形式公民参与的最为全面且纵向的调查。该调查由美国公民军团与美国人口普查局合作推出，旨在每隔两年对国家公民健康状况进行一次全面评估。CEV调查有助于基于证据的决策制定，并深入理解人们如何在全国各地社区中发挥积极作用。本页面所呈现的发现基于2017年9月、2019年和2021年收集的数据，所有数据均经过加权处理，以反映符合条件受访者的随机选择以及由于未响应而产生的缺失数据。这些数据反映了六个关键公民参与指标在州级层面的比率：

正式志愿服务：过去一年中，估计有多少比例的州居民为任何组织或协会提供了志愿服务时间。
非正式互助：过去一年中，估计有多少比例的州居民与邻居进行了如代看房子、相互照看孩子、借用工具等至少一次的互助行为。
组织成员资格：过去一年中，估计有多少比例的州居民属于任何团体、组织或协会。
慈善捐赠：过去一年中，估计有多少比例的州居民向非政治性团体或组织捐赠了价值超过25美元的金钱或物品，如慈善机构、学校或宗教组织。
与亲友交流：过去一年中，估计有多少比例的州居民至少与朋友或家人进行过一次交流或共度时光。
与邻居交流：过去一年中，估计有多少比例的州居民至少与邻居进行过一次对话或共度时光。
