| Abstract: | Highlights the body of available service-learning knowledge in the United States as found via a literature review of the National Clearinghouse for Service-Learning. The authors show that, while urban, suburban, and rural programs are often similar, urban programs focus more on disadvantaged youth and at-risk students and deal more with literacy training activities.
