Dear Colleagues,
The North Central Cluster of State Service Commissions requests that the Board of the

recommendations at its next meeting. We are grateful to ASC for carefully listening to
the field to best represent us in conversations with the Board and Senior Management of
the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) and other appropriate
entities on these issues. This is such an important time in the life of national service!
While we need to move quickly to ensure a positive future, we worry that the national
dialogue to date has focused too narrowly on changes that could harm what is working
well at the state and local levels and may be missing changes at the federal level that
could create the future we all desire- one where everyone that wants to serve as the
opportunity to do so.
As state commissions we have loved being part of the national experiment to create state
entities that would serve as models of a "reinvented government". In this role we have
been laboratories of innovation and have multiple success stories to tell that could be
helpful to the current national dialogue.
Our state commissions recognize that the issues are complex and that the stakes are high.
Any of our states would be delighted to host a site visit, or offer any support necessary, to
provide useful insight to achieve the best possible results for national service.

�As CNCS grapples with important and complex issues, we respectfully offer the
following recommendations:
Issue

Suggestions

Distributing Program
Development &amp; Training
Resources (PDAT)

•

Defining the most
productive state/federal
partnership

•

Devolve hands-on grant making and programming to state
commissions, allowing CNCS to focus on streamlining
processes, ensuring accounting of grant funds and managing
an efficient structure.

Determining
State/Federal roles in
funding innovative and
new initiatives

•

Identify and compare examples of successful state and federal
innovation initiatives against defined criteria to determine the
most effective approach.

Integrating AmeriCorps,
Senior Corps, VISTA,
and Learn &amp; Serve
Programming

•

Equalize benefits and requirements for AmeriCorps and
VISTA members.
Design one application process for communities to be
considered for any CNCS programming.

Determining an adequate
and fair distribution of
administrative and
operational resources to
states and programs.

•

•

•

•

Distribute to states, allowing states to identify and use local
providers to meet cross-stream training needs.
Beyond a sufficient base level, resources for staffing and other
support should be allocated proportionate to the number of all
national service programs and members serving in the state

Increase the administrative dollars available to state
commissions; recognizing the added value of the infrastructure
that supports other service priorities such as Citizen Corps,
Community Volunteering, and development of the entire field
of national service and volunteerism.
Complete a cost/benefit study of the multiple administrative
structures to determine most efficient/effective service delivery
model.

Again, we are so appreciative of your efforts and look forward to working with you to
shape the most positive future possible!
Respectfully,
The North Central Cluster State Service Commissions:
Asta Ardickas Bonheyo,Illinois
Debra Hartman, Nebraska
Jim Hirsh, North Dakota
Joe Smith, Indiana
Adam Lounsbury, Iowa
Kitty Burcsu, Ohio

RE:

StaffRecommendations for Learn and Serve-Michigan School-based Grants

DATE:

August 8, 2003

Learn &amp; Serve Michigan School Based Grants
New Funding
Background
The MCSC has $525,000 to fund new Learn and Serve-Michigan School-Based programs. The
application guidelines were sent to all local school districts, intermediate school districts, charter
schools, and public school academies. The MCSC offered three categories of funding. School
districts that have never received Learn and Serve funding were able to apply for a planning
grant in order to develop a plan to establish service-learning throughout the district. School
districts that have received funds in the past were able to apply for an implementation grant to
expand quality service-learning practice throughout the district. School districts that have
implemented service-learning for a minimum of three years were able to apply for an
institutionalization grant to sustain quality service-learning practice. The amount of funds
applicants were eligible to apply for were based on the category (planning, implementation, and
institutionalization) and on classification of the school district by pupil membership.

RE:

Summary of August 15, 2003, Meeting

The following is a summary ofthe meeting of the Michigan Community Service Commission
Executive Committee held via conference call on August 15, 2003.
The meeting was called to order at 10:05 a.m. Members present: Daniel Mulhern, Chair;
Robert Collier, Vice Chair; Russ Mawby, Vivian Pickard, and Meg Smith. Staff present:
Kyle Caldwell, Executive Director; Janice Harvey, Executive Assistant; and Mary Zatina,
Chief of Staff to Daniel Mulhern.
Update on MCSC Initiatives
Status of AmeriCorps Crisis:
Kyle Caldwell discussed the status of the AmeriCorps funding crisis. The first attempt to
secure additional funding through a FY03 supplemental bill failed. The Save AmeriCorps
Coalition is planning a 100 hour hearing in September. The Legislative Affairs bill for FY03
supplemental is still on the House floor. It is likely they will strip out the AmeriCorps funding .
Staff recommends that we move forward with the recommended 65 % cut in AmeriCorps
members (from 700 to 300).

�Mentor Michigan:
Kyle Caldwell discussed the first Mentor Michigan Summit that will take place in Western
Wayne County in October. Paula Kaiser and Mary Zatina are working together with the group
Child Hope who heard about Dan Mulhern's commitment and invited him to participate in
their summit. There will be four other regional summits (Saginaw, Detroit area, Western
Michigan, and Upper Peninsula). We will be working together with organizations that mentor
and those that benefit from mentors (schools and courts). The summits will help to provide
feedback on Mentor Michigan's mission, vision, plan and work agenda. We also hope to
establish a sharper, clearer definition of what Mentor Michigan will be and use it in January for
National Mentor month to recruit mentors. Kyle Caldwell also stated that Mentor Michigan is
preparing to partner with national mentor program.

Mentor Michigan will be working with Volunteer Centers to work together with local mentor
organizations.
Dan Mulhern and the Governor's office is working on an Executive Order to establish a
Mentor Michigan Advisory Council to advise the MCSC. Executive Committee members
should submit names of those they recommend that have knowledge on mentoring.
Dan Mulhern mentioned that at the retreat he would like to discuss the possibility ofMCSC
Commissioners working as mentors.
Citizen Corps:
Kyle Caldwell stated that a Program Coordinator, Gary Zulinski, has been hired to handle
Michigan Citizen Corps. He is a former captain of the Dearborn Heights Police Department.
His first task is implementing the first CERT Train-the-Trainer September 22-24 at the
Oakland Community College CREST facility. The trainers will then go back to the eight pilot
regions and work with emergency management personnel to establish local CERT training.
MCSC Recommendations for 2003 Learn &amp; Serve School-Based Applications

Kyle Caldwell explained that at the 2002 retreat, Commissioners that participated in the Learn
&amp; Serve Workgroup recommended that the appropriate size of grant should be based on district
size and will be broken down into three categories: planning grant, implementation grant and
institutionalization grant. Schools listed as priority schools were given a special invitation to
apply for a grant - one school applied.

MEMORANDUM

TO:

Michigan Community Service Commission Executive Committee Members

FROM:

Paula Kaiser, Deputy
Michigan Community Service Commission

RE:

Staff Recommendations for Michigan ' s AmeriCorps Formula Programs

DATE:

June 19, 2003

Directo~

Michigan 's AmeriCorps Applications
Background
The Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) was officially notified by the Corporation for
National and Community Service (CNCS) on June 16, 2003 that one of the eighteen competitive
Michigan' s AmeriCorps applications was approved for funding. The Marquette Alger Regional
Education Service Agency was funded for 12 Full-Time Equivalent (FTE) members at $147,359. We
have been informed that the CNCS funded 2,037 FTEs out of the competitive funding nationally. Given
that for the past three years we have leveraged over $3 million per year, this came as quite a shock to us.
We have requested feedback from the CNCS on the applications and justification for why they were not
selected for funding.
Based on the outcomes of the national competitive application process, the staff was faced with a
tremendously difficult decision. We had $1,627,634 million in formula funds available to support
additional programs, but were informed by CNCS that we could only fund 53 FTEs with our those funds.
We had 27 applications requesting $7,454,333 to consider. In making its funding recommendations, the
staff considered the quality of the application submitted, past performance, and geographic and program
focus area diversity. The staff makes the following three recommendations:

�Michigan's AmeriCorps Formula Application Process
Recommendation #1
The staff requests that the following applicants be funded at the reduced recommended amount for the
2003-04 program year.

* Currently, the average federal cost of a FTE member cannot exceed $12,800. All staff
recommendations reflect that figure. State commissions have asked the Corporation to eliminate the FTE
cost cap for the 2003-04 program given the extenuating circumstances. If the cap is lifted the staff would
recommend that each application be given additional funds to continue to support a full-time program
director.

�Recommendation #2
The staff recommends the following applicants receive additional consideration if additional member slots
and funds become available for the FY 2003-04 program year.

�Michigan's AmeriCorps Applicants
· 2003-2004 Program Year
Applicants Recommended for Funding:

Branch Intermediate School District
Success by Six
The Success by Six AmeriCorps Program proposes to address early childhood education (for children
ages 0-4) and parenting skills, with the goal of improving school readiness for youth residing in southern
Michigan's rural Branch County. Members will provide home visiting services to 100 parents to increase
knowledge of child development, conduct community outreach to parent groups (reaching over 300
people) that will increase access to parenting education and information, and facilitate 200 playgroup
sessions designed to increase and improve healthy parent-child interaction. Members will also recruit and
manage 150 parent volunteers annually to support program activities. Even though many of those served
by the program are considered "low-income", services are provided regardless of income, making the
Success by Six program the only provider of such services to some residents of the county. In the past 2
Y2 years the program has been able to provide 5,284 parents with regular home visits utilizing the Parents
as Teachers curriculum, which promotes healthy and positive parent-child interaction. Of those served,
70% showed improvements in their knowledge of parenting skills in just six months. In addition, children
in families with two or more risk indicators were tested using the Infant Development Assessment, and
those served by the program (46 of 50 tested) indicated higher scores than children not receiving services.
County Served: Branch

Camp Fire USA West Michigan Council
Neighborhood Youth Development
Camp Fire USA's Neighborhood Youth Development Program, a pre-existing program, plans to engage
AmeriCorps members to expand the local Camp Fire after-school and summer programs in an effort to
provide a safe environment for children during out of school time, serving 532 after-school and 380
summer participants at six sites. Members would deliver in class Campfire USA Self-Reliance
curriculum to 1231 students in Grand Rapids urban schools. Members would recruit at least 330
volunteers who would each spend 1 - 3 hours per week in after-school and summer programs. Members

Most of these events involved collaboration among the program, and local community organizations,
businesses, and civic organizations. Members also provided individual support to various youth literacy
programs. One of the programs greatest strengths is its ability to continually assess its progress, and
incorporate feedback in order to assure it is addressing the most pertinent needs, in the most effective
ways. Throughout its first two years the program continually assessed and analyzed community need and
systems of service delivery, resulting in a necessary change in program focus to begin in the '03-'04 grant

�Ionia County Intermediate School District
Ionia County AmeriCorps
The Ionia County AmeriCorps Program proposes to provide students in a rural environment with
activities in mentoring and service-learning. These activities will support the development of character
through healthy youth development in the classroom and during non-school hours . Members will serve
1,000 middle and high school youth in 6 local school districts by coordinating programs that encourage
adult and family involvement in supporting youth in their development and ability to achieve success.
This will result in decreased student behavior problems and increased academic success among those
served. Members will also engage 225 community volunteers providing 2,500 hours of service in support
of program activities. In its first two years of programming, the program focused on increasing youth
literacy and family focus on reading. Of the 754 students receiving reading·support, 87% demonstrated a
gain of at least one grade level in their reading ability. Of the 2,233 receiving one-Qn-one or group
tutoring, 70% showed increases in vocabulary, comprehension, fluency, and word recognition.
Additionally, members served over 3,000 youth and family members through community reading events
or home-based literacy activities. Approaching the end of the program's second year, local community
need assessments indicated that there had been systems put in place that could continue to support local
youth literacy initiatives, and that other community needs were now taking priority. The program thus
changed focus in order to address these new identified community needs, which were to support youth
through service-learning and mentoring activities to promote healthy character development. Program
activities are designed to result in decreased incidence of student behavior problems among those served,
and increased academic performance.

Summary of June 23, 2003, Meeting

The following is a summary of the meeting ofthe Michigan Community Service Commission
Executive Committee held via conference call on June 23, 2003 .
The meeting was called to order at 10:10 a.m. Members present: Daniel G. Mulhern, Chair;
Russell G. Mawby; Vivian Pickard. Staff present: Kyle Caldwell, Executive Director; Janice
Harvey, Executive Assistant.
Status of AmeriCorps Funding
Kyle Caldwell discussed the recent developments regarding Michigan's AmeriCorps funding
cut of 85%. He discussed the strategy and actions of the MCSC. He stressed the solution to
the problem is three points:

1. The program funding must be restored ($68 million).
2. The Trust must be made solvent.
3. The cap must be lifted on the AmeriCorps programs.
There has been a lot of press coverage on the cuts both nationally and locally and pressure has
been applied to Congress to fix the problem. A bill was introduced last week by Senators

�Mikulski and Bond to begin to fix the problem and has passed both houses.

Staff recommendations for 2003 Michigan 's AmeriCorps Formula Applications
Kyle Caldwell explained that Michigan had $1 ,627,634 million in formula funds available, but
could only fund 53 FTEs with those funds. Mr. Caldwell explained that the staff had come up
with three recommendations. Members reviewed the staff recommendations for the 2003-04
program year (see attached). Commissioner Mawby moved to approve the staff
recommendation #1, and Commissioner Mulhern seconded. The staff recommendation #1 was
approved.

Commissioners expressed three concerns: geographic diversity; utilization of members (both
full-time and part-time); and the 20% MCSC imposed cap in funding for any program.
Mr. Caldwell reviewed staff recommendation #2, which would be programs that would receive
additional consideration should additional member slots become available. Commissioners
agreed to this recommendation and that MCSC staff has the authorization to modify the
approved programs and/or those on the pending list.
Mr. Caldwell reviewed staff recommendation #3, which were applicants that were not
recommended for funding and Commissioners agreed to the recommendation.
The meeting adjourned at 11:00 a.m.

MEMORANDUM

TO: Members and Friends of the Michigan Community Service Commission
FROM: Kyle Caldwell, Executive Director, Michigan Community Service Commission
DATE: March 18,2003
RE: Update on AmeriCorps Enrollment and Funding

The challenges:
1. The Omnibus Appropriations bill resulted in a 35.4% cut in funding to states for
ArneriCorps programs.
2. The unanticipated accounting shortfall in the Education Trust that resulted in the
ArneriCorps enrollment freeze in November 2002.
3. The additional $64 million liability owed by the Trust due to an accounting error.
4. The proposed solutions to the above issues.
On February 20, 2003, the 2003 Omnibus Appropriations measure became law. The bill
included funding for formula and competitive grants to states for ArneriCorps programs for the
03-04 program year. Unfortunately, the Omnibus bill reduced state ArneriCorps program funds
from $193,492,000 to $125,000,000-a cut of35.4% . This is the most significant reduction
made in the entire 03-04 budget for CNCS and the largest ever for states.
The bill also included $100 million for the Education Award Trust to make up for the
accounting shortfall that precipitated the enrollment freeze. As a result, the Corporation for
National and Community Service (CNCS) made the decision to lift the freeze on ArneriCorps
enrollments. The freeze was lifted after an agreement between the Congressional Budget Office
(CBO), the Office ofManagement and Budget (OMB), and CNCS that the $100 million Trust
appropriation be used for future education awards and not be used to rectify the $64 million
owed by the Trust due to accounting errors.
In addition, the bill caps at 50,000 the number of individuals that can be enrolled in
ArneriCorps.

�To help address these issues, on Tuesday, March 41h, President Bush sent a letter to Speaker
Hastert requesting that:
a. The $64 million liability owed by the Trust due to accounting errors be liquidated.
b. Congress give CNCS the power to transfer up to $50 million from programming to the
Educational Award Trust to cover the unanticipated shortfall.
c. CNCS have the ability to enroll more than 50,000 AmeriCorps members.
While the President's proposal is a good step forward, there are a myriad of issues left unsolved.
1. The proposal does not call for a restoration of program funding. The funding for state
programs is still cut 35.4%.
a. For Michigan, this could mean a cut of $2.1 million (of our current $6.2 million).
b. This could eliminate 246 ofMichigan' s current 696 AmeriCorps members.
2. When next year's budget is presented (for the 04-05 programming year), any increase over
the current amount of $125 million will be seen as an increase in the budget. It will not be
seen as an attempt to restore funding to the originally expected level of $193 million.
3. The $50 million that can now be transferred from CNCS program funds into the Education
Trust, will result in even less funds available for AmeriCorps programs. Therefore, the
35.4% cut to states could be even larger.
a. A portion of the $50 million could be taken from the $125 million.
4. The $100 million allotted to the Trust is not adequate as it must cover approximately
20,000 members for the 02-03 program year (those that were impacted by the enrollment
freeze) and the proposed 50,000 members for the 03-04 program year.
a. $100 million is enough for 21,164 education awards for full-time members.
These issues are real challenges for communities as they rely more and more on national service
to fill in the social services gaps. The cuts to Michigan are hidden at the federal level, but are
very real at the community level as the Michigan ' s AmeriCorps portfolio will shrink
substantially.

Welcome and Introduction - Chairperson Mawby
The meeting was called to order at 12:19 p.m. by Chairperson Mawby. Chairperson
Mawby welcomed everyone to the meeting and asked everyone to introduce themselves .
Chairperson Mawby introduced the new commissioners, Pamela Abbey Roth and Jessica
Pellegrino, and asked them to give background on themselves.

II.

Review and Approval ofDecember 16,2002, Minutes- Chairperson Mawby
Chairperson Mawby asked for any corrections to the minutes from the
December 16, 2002, meeting. Kyle Caldwell noted one change in the minutes
under Section III, Executive Committee Report, staff recommendations granting
additional powers to the Executive Committee to approve the MCSC's grant
application submissions to the CNCS. Paragraph should read:
Commissioner O'Day moved to approve the recommendations for the Executive
Committee to approve the MCSC's grant application submissions. Commissioner West
seconded the motion and the recommendations were approved. Motion passed
unanimously.
Chairperson Mawby asked for a motion to approve.
Commissioner Barfield moved to approve the December 16, 2002, minutes.
Commissioner O'Day seconded the motion to approve the minutes. Motion passed

III.

Standing Committee Reports - Chairperson Mawby.
A.

Executive Committee Report - Chairperson Mawby.
1.

Chairperson Mawby discussed the minutes of the January 17, 2003,
Executive Committee Meeting which were passed out to board members.
During the meeting (via conference call) they reviewed the agenda for the
February 10, 2003, meeting, the transition ofthe new executive branch in
Lansing, and the annual performance review of the Executive Director.

2.

Chairperson Mawby explained the process for performance review of the
Executive Director and requested that each board member complete the
performance review and return it to Jennifer Forbes at the MCSC office.
Chairperson Mawby will summarize the results and have a constructive
review with Kyle Caldwell. Because Kyle's position is Civil Service, the
review does not impact his position and salary. However, it is useful in
fulfilling the job and is important to have this communication between the
Commission and the Executive Director. It is also important to have it as a
part of his personnel portfolio. Mr. Caldwell explained that he wanted

2

�everyone to be frank and honest as the results are used to help the way we
do business and try to establish priorities.
B.

Board Development Committee - Chairperson Mawby
1.

Chairperson Mawby discussed the letter of resignation from
Commissioner Michelle Engler to Governor Granholm. A response from
the Governor's office had not been received, but it was expected that it
will be accepted. MCSC will acknowledge appropriately to Michelle our
appreciation for the leadership and service she provided. Chairperson
Mawby noted a handwritten footnote in the letter where Mrs. Engler noted
that she thought Dan Mulhern would find the MCSC a tremendous
opportunity to do good things. There is a meeting scheduled with Mr.
Mulhern to discuss the MNA, MCSC, and ConnectMichigan Alliance, to
give him an overview and to discuss his possibility of becoming a member
of the Commission.
Chairperson Mawby asked for a motion to elect Commissioner Engler to
the Leadership Advisory Council of the Commission, which consists of
former members of the commission. Commissioner Swain moved to
approve the election of Commissioner Engler to the Council.
Commissioner Smith seconded the motion and the recommendation was
approved. Motion passed unanimously.

C.

Outreach and Communications Committee - Commissioner O'Day
1.

Governor Service Awards Update.
Commissioner O'Day discussed the alternative for the Governor Service
Awards dinner, which will not take place this year, due to the new
Governor's transition and budget constraints. Suggestions were made at
the December Commission meeting and the changes were incorporated
into the program. The nomination form is available on the website and in
hardcopy. Commissioner O'Day explained the best way Commissioners
can help is by getting the word out about the change to people who have
nominated volunteers in the past as well as people who are interested in
nominating volunteers in the future. Commissioners should direct those
requesting information to the MCSC website or to call the MCSC office.
Also, Commissioners can email or make copies of the nomination form
they received to share with as many people that they can, or give the staff
names and addresses of those you think may be interested in a nomination
form. One of the biggest changes is that we are accepting nominations
year round.
State Farm has agreed to be a sponsor this year They are interested in the
work that the commission does around youth and service-learning. They
3

�are sponsoring the Governor's Service Awards nominations that focus on
youth, service-learning, and education.
Commissioner 0 ' Day explained that the next step is to put together a Peer
Review Panel. Commissioner Macon agreed to serve on the panel.
Members of the Outreach Committee and other volunteers will also serve
on the Peer Review Panel. The number of peer review panelists will be
determined by the number of nominations received so people don't have to
review more than 15 or so nominations.
Commissioner O'Day explained to help promote the Gov. George Romney
Lifetime Achievement Award for Volunteerism the commission is
partnering with the Council of Michigan Foundation and Michigan
Nonprofit Association to create a joint nomination form for the Romney
Award and the Russell G. Mawby Award for Philanthropy. This year both
awards will be presented at the Grantmakers/Grantseekers Conference on
May 20, 2003. A copy of the nomination form was given to
Commissioners. There is a deadline for these two awards (March 21 ).
The other Governor Service Awards can be nominated anytime. They will
be considered by the Peer Review Panel, which will meet quarterly to
establish the volunteers that will be recognized for the next few months.
The MCSC staff will help to promote GSA by distributing flyers to their
database (14,000 individuals) which will direct people to their website or
contact the office; mailing the form to all grantees and key stakeholders;
working with MNA and CMA, United Way, Council of Michigan
Foundations, Michigan Library, etc. to have them promote on their website
and in their newsletters; putting announcements on State of Michigan
employee paycheck stubs; promoting on the MCSC ' s home page; and
sending announcements out to a variety of list serves.
Commissioner Pickard asked the amount of the State Farm donation and
was told it was $5,000. Commissioner Barfield asked if that was enough.
Kyle Caldwell explained that the program shrinks with the size of the
donation. The GSA program and dinner cost approximately $30,000,
which covered the event, the printing, etc. Commissioner O'Day asked
the amount of the last Ameritech contribution. Kyle Caldwell stated that
it declined over time but the last contribution was $15,000. In the first
year they underwrote the entire cost and then they capped it at around
$12,000 to $15,000, so the MCSC absorbed the additional amount.
Ameritech is no longer a sponsor.
Kyle Caldwell and Commissioner O'Day stated that the goal of the GSA is
to take it out to the communities to build up enough interest and then next
year get back on track with a statewide dinner. This year there will be
local events that may include the local state representative or senator, or
4

�possibly a media event and hopefully with the Governor, to recognize the
GSA winners. It will involve more people in different ways and may
end up strengthening the program.
Commissioner O'Day handed out updates to the Commisioner Key
Information Binders.
Chairperson Mawby discussed the upcoming commission meeting on
Monday, May 19, 2003. The meeting will take place at the Lansing Center
and will begin at 11:00 am. We will join the Grantrnakers/Grantseekers
lunch at 12:15 pm, with the guest speaker Mike Farrell from M.A.S.H.
After lunch, we will re-convene. He also noted that the annual retreat will
be at Brook Lodge on September 11 and 12 and the December meeting
will take place in Dearborn.

Report ofMCSC Designees to the ConnectMichigan Alliance Board of Trustees Commissioner Mawby
1.
Update on the ConnectMichigan Alliance Endowment Campaign
Chairperson Mawby asked Dr. John Lore to give the Connect Michigan
Alliance (CMA) update. Dr. Lore gave an update on the fundraising
activities and distributed copies of a CMA gift snapshot to everyone. This
gave a breakdown of the money being raised and the money that has
already been raised. Dr. Lore stated that they are within $628,000 from
reaching the goal of the $20 million grant. It was suggested by
Commissioner O'Day and Jocelyn Yanda to approach athletes that are promentoring, literacy and service-learning to see if they are interested in
making a donation.

Report on Michigan Campus Compact - Chairperson Mawby
1.

F.

Chairperson Mawby asked Amy Smitter to give an update and overview
on the Michigan Campus Compact. She explained that it is a state
organization of college presidents that are committing their universities to
make a difference in communities and their students in terms of
community service, service-learning and civic engagement. The campus
compact has 35 members now but is in the process of adding the
University of Detroit Mercy. That's about 40% of higher education
institutions in the state. The Campus Compact works with those
presidents, faculty, staff and students on those campuses.

Volunteer Centers of Michigan- Chairperson Mawby
1.

Chairperson Mawby asked Judy Tymowicz to give brief comments on
Volunteer Centers ofMichigan. Judy stated that Volunteer Centers of
Michigan have 35 volunteer center members which serve 47 counties in
5

�Michigan. That means that 88% of the population in the state has
volunteer centers accessible to the residents in those counties. The
mission is community volunteerism and to get all residents involved at the
local level. They work with the MCSC through the Michigan Volunteer
Investment Grants program, which leverage endowment funds and provide
operational funds for volunteer centers who establish to continue their
organization.

Executive Director's Report - Kyle Caldwell
G.

Program Updates
1.

Volunteer Investment Grants Funding (approval item).
Ms. Kaiser explained that at the December MCSC board meeting 12 grants
were approved for $659,095. Therefore, we had $121,000 available to
allocate in a second round. Immediately following that board meeting
staff issued round two guidelines. MCSC received seven applications on
January 21, 2003 , totaling $335,000. All seven applications were
reviewed by an external peer review group. From that peer review, five of
the seven were recommended for staff review. The staff reviewed those
five, totaling $205,000, which exceeded the amount we had available
($121,000). The staff recommended that all five be funded and
recommended dividing the available amounts by the five organizations.
Staff asked the board to approve: Calvin College in the amount of
$24,200; Dickinson Iron Community Services Agency in the amount of
$24,200; ENRICH of Ionia County in the amount of$24,200; Jackson
Nonprofit Support Center in the amount of$24,200; and Volunteer Center
ofMid-Michigan in the amount of$24,200.
A motion to approve the staff recommendations was made by
Commissioner O'Day and seconded by Commissioner Seese. Motion
passed unanimously.
Kyle Caldwell discussed the status ofthe state funding of the VIG grants.
The Commission was recently contacted by its fiscal agency about this
particular grant funding. This is the only fund that MCSC distributes that
is solely general purpose State of Michigan funding. Originally this was a
$1 million annual endowment-building program. As of February 10, the
funding stood at $659,095. In addition, all the grant agreements through
the MDCD, our fiscal agency, were held up by the department because of
the pending budget cuts. Mr. Caldwell discussed the budget crisis and
possible upcoming program cuts. He also explained that the volunteer
centers have been notified that the grants were being held.

�2.

Introduction of MCSC Staff
The MCSC staff introduced themselves and the programs they work with.

3.

AmeriCorps
Kyle Caldwell gave a report on Oakland County AmeriCorps member,
Lenny Compton, and his experience at the President's State of the Union
address. Lenny was on the news circuit the following day to talk about his
service. A bio and press release on Lenny was on the MCSC website.
Mr. Caldwell explained that the MCSC is working to craft the next
AmeriCorps application. The challenge for the MCSC is that we don't
know how much money we will have to appropriate next year and we are
operating our current budget on what are called continuing resolutions
(taking the numbers from last year, freezing them and moving them
forward into the current operating year). Congress has extended that until
February 20, 2003 . MCSC was currently looking at requests that exceed
$8 million. Staff were moving forward with some really good
applications, but didn't know what was going to be available. The strategy
was to bring forth quality, submit it all, and see what happens.
Mr. Caldwell explained the challenge facing AmeriCorps is that the
CNCS, for a number of reasons including the high demand on AmeriCorps
slots as well as an accounting mishap, does not have enough money in the
education trust to cover AmeriCorps educational awards so ceased
enrollment. This means that programs which are funded through us with a
January start and would be enrolling members in January and November
were unable to enroll members. That is a huge crunch on programs. It
also means that programs that lose members will not be able to fill them.
The freeze will stay on until the foreseeable future. The Corporation
claims that it has enough money to cover current commitments, with
roughly about 20,000 that they can bring on slowly. The bigger challenge
is that the Trust is somewhere in the area of $40 to $65 million short.
Congress is not appropriating large sums of money to go into the
endowment trust. So it' s got to come from somewhere and usually that's
from state commissions. That impacts the $8 million in requests that we' ll
carry forward and be looking at budget cuts into next year.
Ms. Kaiser explained that about 60% of the AmeriCorps slots from last
year have been filled so there is about 40% for our state alone that are
vacant and they are not able to fill them at this time. The majority of our
programs started back in September and October so they were able to
bring on some oftheir members. The staff is in continuous contact with
our members with the implications on them and helping them to resolve
issues as they come up.
7

�4.

Learn and Serve- Service-Learning
Kyle Caldwell explained that the Learn and Serve Work Group met to
craft strategy to move forward with our service-learning initiatives.
MCSC will be submitting a three-year plan for Learn and Serve in
Michigan to the CNCS . We have some preliminary data from RMC
research on service-learning and it's impact on MEAP. We talked earlier
about State Farm and their support of our service-learning work. They
were very excited about doing recognition programs, but they also wanted
to get involved deeper in service-learning, in particularly our National
Youth Service Day. The MCSC will do a joint conference with the
Michigan Campus Compact, the Institute on Service-Learning to be held at
CMU where Tom Watkins will be speaking. The work group had given
the staff a charge to move forward on some key elements that will be
shared with Commissioners at the next commission meeting.

5.

Federal Budget
Kyle Caldwell explained that the President's FY04 budget calls for an
increase to 75,000 AmeriCorps members (50,000 right now). The funding
for AmeriCorps had not been introduced nor was there enough funding
appropriated in the President's budget to cover the education trust shortfall
so there is going to be a need to reconcile some numbers.

6. Office of the Inspector General Audit
Kyle Caldwell discussed that the Office of Inspector General published its
audit of Michigan for the Corporation for National and Community
Service. The preliminary findings show that only 2.2% of the federal
funding examined is being questioned. Staff is providing most of the
documentation and working with the grantees to get the member files and
other records. This is an excellent endorsement of the accounting program
at the commission.
7.

State of Michigan Budget
Kyle Caldwell explained the importance of its state funding in order to
broker the $8 million federal funding. There are other state commissions
in earlier years that didn't form because they couldn't get the state funding
in order to draw down the federal funding. This is a compelling case for
why state funding needs to be maintained.

�8.

State of the State Address
Kyle Caldwell discussed the areas of the Governor' s State of the State
address that pertained to the MCSC and the work that we do . The
Governor also called for the First Gentleman to spearhead the Mentoring
Initiatives which could lead to working with the Commission.

9. Financial Statement as of January 1, 2003 .
Kyle Caldwell explained that a copy of the statement was included in the
Commissioners information.
10.

Michigan Citizen Corps Council
Kyle Caldwell explained that the Michigan Citizen Corps Council was
created under executive order. The idea was to marry traditional volunteer
initiatives that we work on with homeland security. The council would
meet Tuesday, February 11 , 2003, for the first time. The Council will
adopt a 3-year plan to get Citizen Corps moving in Michigan. The first
item that will be addressed is a new initiative called CERT (Citizen
Emergency Response Teams), which is first aid training the volunteers can
engage in before First Responders arrive at the scene. Their hope is that
every community will have this training in their community permanently.
The second item that will be addressed will focus on other programs under
the Citizen Corps umbrella including the revitalization of neighborhood
watch, working with retired law enforcement and retired medical staff to
work in communities as volunteers. Another concern will be that the
Governor designate a Homeland Security Director, someone who will be
coordinating all of the homeland security initiatives (firemen, state police,
biohazard, etc).
Mr. Caldwell also explained that this initiative is funded with over
$500,000 from Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). He
explained that Michigan will pilot this in eight communities across the
state, and hopefully new money will come and Michigan will be able to
expand in the future. This is a FEMA program that is being reorganized
under the new Department of Homeland Security so the MCSC will have
to wait to see where this initiative falls out in the next 6-8 months.

DATE: April 7, 2003
RE: Summary of April 4, 2003, Meeting

The following is a summary of the meeting of the Michigan Community Service Commission
Executive Committee held via conference call on April4, 2003.
The meeting was called to order at 10:05 a.m. Members present: Russell G. Mawby, Chair;
Robert Collier, Vice Chair; Vivian Pickard, and Meg Smith. Staff present: Kyle Caldwell,
Executive Director; Janice Harvey, Executive Assistant.
Commissioner Mawby discussed his conversation with First Gentleman Dan Granholm
Mulhern and stated that they have a meeting scheduled in 10 days. There has not been a final
answer on whether Mr. Mulhern will serve on the Commission but Mr. Mawby is optimistic.
Agenda for Spring Meeting
Commissioner Mawby recommended that the May meeting date be changed to Tuesday, May
20, 2003 , to join the Grantmakers/Grantseekers luncheon where the Romney and Mawby
awards will be announced. Also, Governor Granholm has been invited to be the keynote
speaker. Members reviewed the May 20, 2003, meeting agenda and approved its distribution
with minor modifications. Commissioner Smith moved to change the meeting date to
Tuesday, May 20, 2003 . Commissioner Pickard seconded the motion. Motion passed.

�MCSC Recommendations for Appointment to the ConnectMichigan Alliance Board of
Directors
Commissioner Mawby explained that Terry Pruitt will continue to serve on the
ConnectMichigan Alliance Board of Directors, and recommended Vivian Pickard to succeed
Julie Cummings. Discussion on replacement for Michelle Engler was tabled until later date.
Commissioner Smith moved to approve the recommendation of Vivian Pickard, and seconded
by Commissioner Collier. The motion passed.
National Service Update
Kyle Caldwell discussed the memo dated March 18, 2003, outlining the AmeriCorps enrollment
freeze and funding issues. He stated that the enrollment freeze had been lifted but that it is not
known how many slots will be available this year. He also discussed the President's proposal
for a remedy to the problem: transfer of funds from programming to the Educational Award
Trust and to waive some ofthe accounting errors from the trust.

Kyle Caldwell also discussed the Federal Budget and the additional recision of $14 million as a
budget balancing measure. Congressman Hoekstra introduced a bill to rescind the President's
action of $64 million. There is a good indication that Senator Kennedy will be adding an
amendment in the War Budget to restore the program funding.
Other Items
Mr. Caldwell also reviewed the latest progress of the Michigan Citizen Corps initiative.

The members were reminded of the future Executive Committee meetings (June 20, 2003, and
August 15, 2003). There was the discussion of changing the June 20, 2003, meeting to June
27, 2003 due to the Signature Service Project. The date change will be confirmed by Janice
Harvey within the next week.
The meeting adjourned at 10:20 a.m.

MEMORANDUM

Committee

If(

FROM: Kyle Caldwell, Executive Director
DATE : February 24, 2003

RE: M ichigan 's AmeriCorps Sustainability Plan Waiver Requests

The Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) staff received four requests
for temporary waivers to the Michigan's AmeriCorps Sustainability Requirement for
increased local match.
Recommendation
The requests were reviewed by staff for a) adherence to the criteria, compelling need
and circumstances, and c) completeness of the request. The recommendations of staff
are as follows:
Applicant
AmeriCorps Oakland
B-H-K Child Development Board
University of Michigan
Commw1ities In Schools

Exemption Request
25%
75%
5%
95%
20.5%
79.5%
25%
75%

R ecommen dation
Approve
Approve
Decline
Decline

Specific Recommendations
AmeriCorps Oakland
The applicant clearly expressed the need for the waiver, gave a concise and
comprehensive plan for achieving the required level next year, and provided a
detailed summary of the future prospects as well as contingency plans should some
prospects not deliver.

�B-H-K Child Development Board
The applicant expressed the need for the waiver, gave a broad plan for achieving the
required level next year, and provided a detailed summary of continuous flow of
resource from prospects for the future. In addition, the applicant was only requesting
a 5% exemption, making a strong case for the program's ability to meet the future
match requirement.
University of Michigan
The applicant expressed the need for the waiver, but gave only one strategy for
meeting the future requirements of the program and did not explore a number of
obvious alternatives (e.g. charging local partners). The follow up plan lack detail and
the overall internal structures (staff costs, etc.) remains essentially the same rather
than looking at reducing such costs as part of an overall sustainability strategy.
Communities In Schools
The applicant expressed the program's successes, but did not express a compelling
need for the waiver. In fact, the application was seeking to expand the program and
requested a waiver so that the expansion could be afforded. Staff did not feel that it
could justify a waiver from the sustainability policy in the face of declining federal
resources.
Background
In September of 2000, the MCSC adopted a sustainability policy that was designed to
free up resources and help programs sustain themselves beyond the federal grant.
The policy calls for Michigan's AmeriCorps programs to provide a graduated match
after a program's third year of funding that would lead to programs providing 100%
of the Program Operations Costs while the MCSC would maintain support for the
federal share of the Member Support Costs (Stipend and other related costs for
member enrollment). The scale is as follows:

Year
Year 1-3 of funding fed.
Year 4 of funding fed.
Year 5 of funding fed.
Year 6 of funding fed.
Year 7 of funding fed.

Federal Share I Local Share
85% I 15% of Program Operations
50% I 50% of Program Operations
40% I 60% of Program Operations
25% I 75% of Program Operations
0% I 100% ofProgram Operations

Costs

Costs

The policy allows programs to request a waiver of this match for one year. In that
request, programs had to explain:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6.

the nature of the request,
previous and current efforts to create an implement a fundraising strategy,
local challenges that hamper the increased match responsibility,
extenuating circumstances,
future sustainability plans to meet future match requirements, and
proven record of success.

RE:

Staff Recommendations for Michigan's AmeriCorps Competitive Submission

Michigan's AmeriCorps Competitive Renewal and Recompete Applications
Background
The MCSC mailed a Notice of Funds Available (NOFA) to the entire MCSC database of 14,000
organizations in September 2003. In the NOF A the MCSC advertised the opportunities for
potential applicants to attend two technical assistance sessions to learn about how to apply for
Michigan's AmeriCorps Funding. The MCSC issued the Michigan's AmeriCorps Concept Paper
Guidelines in October 2003. The Michigan's AmeriCorps Concept Papers were due to MCSC
on November 25,2002. The MCSC received 42 Concept Papers, 22 of which were from
existing AmeriCorps programs. All 42 Concept Papers were reviewed by a panel of peer
reviewers on December 9, 2002. The peer reviewers recommended that 32 of the Concept
Papers move to the next level which was the MCSC staff review. The staff reviewed all32
applications and moved 28 of them forward to the next step of the application process-- the
submission of a Comprehensive Application on February 3, 2003. The staff reviewed all28
Comprehensive Applications and is recommending 19 ofthem be included in the MCSC
competitive application submission to the Corporation for National and Community Service on
March 18, 2003. Inclusion in MCSC's competitive submission does not guarantee funding.

Applicants were provided written feedback that included any necessary revisions. All revisions
are due to MCSC by March 7, 2003. The staff will review all of the revisions to ensure all issues
are addressed. Assuming all identified issues are addressed, the staff makes the following
recommendations:

�New Competitive Programs
The staff recommends the following applicants be included in the MCSC's competitive
application submission package to the Corporation for National and Community Service.

RE: Summary of February 26, 2003 Meeting

The following is a summary of the meeting of the Michigan Community Service Commission
Executive Committee held via conference call on February 26, 2003 .
The meeting was called to order at 10:09 a.m. Members present: Russell G. Maw by, Chair;
Robert A.Collier, Vice Chair; Vivian Pickard, and Meg Smith. Staff present: Kyle Caldwell,
Executive Director; Paula Kaiser, Deputy Director.
Members reviewed the staff recommendations for Michigan's AmeriCorps Competitive
Applications and the Michigan's AmeriCorps Sustainability Plan Waiver Requests for the
2003-04 program year. Commissioner Smith moved, and Commissioner Collier seconded
that the staff recommendations for new competitive programs be approved (see attached).
Commissioner Smith moved, and Commissioner Pickard seconded that the staff
recommendations for waiver request be approved. The waiver requests submitted by
AmeriCorps Oakland and B-H-K Child Development Board were approved. Waiver requests
by the University of Michigan and Communities in Schools were declined.
Mr. Caldwell reviewed the cunent and future state and federal budgets. Governor Granholm
was expected to armounce her 2004 budget on March 6, 2003. The President signed an
Omnibus Spending Appropriation which included funding for national service programs,
however it severely cut funding for state service commissions and their AmeriCorps
programs. In addition, funding for the Educational Award Trust was provided some
additional funding, but continuing accounting enors consumed most of the gains provided by

�the Tmst and seriously call into question the availability of any Education Awards for the
2003-04 program year.
The members were reminded ofthe future Executive Committee meetings (April4, 2003 and
tentatively June 27, 2003).
The meeting was adjoumed at 11:00 a.m.

Texans care about each other. Through their volunteer participation
in state agencies, children and seniors are safe and cared for, parks
are clean and inviting, historic sites are preserved, our cultural
heritage is celebrated, and needed services are rendered. Investing in
Volunteerism is an analysis ofthe volunteer service and community
engagement efforts of eighteen selected state agencies and organizations. Funded in part by a grant received by the Texas Commission
on Volunteerism and Community Service from the Corporation for
National and Community Service, this study was undertaken by the
RGK Center for Philanthropy and Community Service, a component
of the Lyndon B. Johnson School of Public Affairs at the University
ofTexas at Austin.
• Volunteer participation is big business in Texas State Government agencies. Significantly more than 200,000 Texans serve this
state through structured service opportunities providing
contributions in time, in-kind contributions, and donations
valued in excess of $35 million.
• Four organizational models facilitate the delivery of volunteer
service. Centralized models appear to be most effective in
leveraging broad large-scale citizen participation initiatives. These
models require dedicated staff at the central office and regional

levels supporting volunteerism. Decentralized models operate on a
project or program specific level. Generally focused on outcome or
project goals, these relatively smaller efforts address specific needs.
Regional outreach is variable. Community-based models of service
rely heavily on the work of independent nonprofit organizations
formed to assist the state in meeting significant social problems.
Hybrid models represent a combination of these systems.
• More than 100 different service opportunities and volunteer
projects were identified by the participating agencies. Key
challenges to greater volunteer involvement include staff availability to supervise and support volunteers and staff understanding of
the roles and functions volunteers can perform.
• People of all ages serve as volunteers. Fewer opportunities exist for
youth service. Senior adults were frequently lauded for their
volunteer activities.
Volunteers are not free. They do however significantly expand
the reach of state government, leverage scarce financial resources,
and actively engage citizens in the work of a democracy. Their
involvement helps generate networks oftrust and reciprocity,
building caring communities.

Service as a Strategy
Advancing Governor Granholm's Call to Service
Summary

/

In her inaugural address, Governor Granholm called for "a renewed air of citizen
patriotism, duty and service to one another." 1 This call continued the Governor's
commitment to using service as a strategy to solve community challenges. Much like her
2000 by 2000 initiative2 created by then Attorney General Granholm, this latest call seeks
. to engage and channel the passions and energies of Michigan's most vital resource-its
volunteers.
The Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) can be an effective tool for
Governor Granholm to implement her call to citizen service. While it is commonly held
that individuals would act to serve their community if asked/ we also know that a call to
service requires the support, leadership and the development of resources to be
maintained. The MCSC has a decade-long history of providing these elements and seeks
the opportunity to use service as a strategy to answer Governor Granholm's call to
"breathe a renewed air of citizen patriotism, duty and service to one another."
Key Elements
Five key elements may be enacted to effectively and innovatively advance Governor
Granholm's call to service:

1

•

Lead: Appoint a high-level official to the cabinet or to a state governmental
body to give the highest-level priority to the Governor's call to service.

•

Mandate: Call for universal access for all Michigan citizens to volunteer
opportunities.

•

Educate: Instill an ethic of service in the next generation of citizen patriots by
encouraging students to serve and by calling for all educators to utilize servicelearning as a teaching methodology.

•

Prepare: Empower residents to strengthen and ensure the safety of their
community through volunteerism.

Inaugural address of Michigan's 47th Governor, Jennifer M. Granholm.
The 2000 by 2000 initiative is now known as Mentor Michigan.
3
The past two Michigan Volunteering and Giving Surveys have noted that the majority of those who don't
volunteer, would if asked and those who do volunteer do so because someone asked them. Michigan
Volunteering and Giving is a statewide survey supported by the Michigan Community Service Commission,
Michigan Nonprofit Association and the Council of Michigan Foundations.

�DRAFT- NOT FOR PUBLIC DISTRUBUTION

•

Celebrate: Regularly and publicly recognize individuals, businesses and
organizations that engage in exemplary service to their community.
Action Items

The five key elements to enacting the Governor's call to service can be enacted within the
first 100 days ofthe Granholm Administration and can have an enormous impact without
imposing additional burdens on the state budget. In fact, if this plan is enacted, it could
provide additional resources to state government's ability to provide support to local
communities. 4 At the same time, every precaution should be taken to ensure that this
plan in no way supplants or replaces jobs currently deemed as critical to the work and
responsibilities of state government.
Lead

Create a cabinet-level position to advise the Governor on issues related to philanthropy
and volunteerism and help state agencies develop policies and procedures that would
better engage citizens in service.
The primary responsibilities for this individual might include:
•
•
•
•
•
•

Overseeing the state government directives related to the Governor's call to
service;
Acting as a liaison between state government and foundations and other charitable
organizations;
Directing state agencies charged with promoting service and volunteerism;
Brokering resources and technical assistance for state departments and agencies to
promote volunteerism;
Highlighting exemplary volunteers for Governor Granholm to hold up as models
for others to emulate; and
Preparing regular reports to the Governor on the progress of state agencies in
enacting the plan and on the state ofvolunteerism in Michigan5 .

Mandate

Call for universal access for all Michigan citizens to volunteer opportunities. Issue a
mandate calling for all state departments and agencies to use service as a strategy by
identifying opportunities and access points for citizens to volunteer.

4

Independent Sector estimates that the average value of a volunteer is more than $16/hour.
Michigan publishes a study of giving and volunteering in Michigan that can be used to lay a foundation for
a report to the Governor. In addition, Texas published a report on the impact of volunteer initiatives in
selected Texas state governmental agencies that may serve as a model. An executive summary is attached.

�DRAFT- NOT FOR PUBLIC DISTRUBUTION

An executive order explaining the Governor's wishes along with a rationale for the
mandate could be issued immediately. The order would:
•
•
•
•
•
•

Explain the rationale for the mandate; 6
Detail the goals on providing universal access to volunteer opportunities;
Charge each department to develop a plan for engaging volunteers in the core
work of that agency;
Call for regular reports on the challenges and successes of their plan;
Charge the Michigan Community Service Commission with working with
agencies to oversee and implement their plans; and
Require that agencies and departments provide adequate resources and leadership
to carry out the Governor's call to action.

Educate
Instill an ethic of service in the next generation of citizen patriots by encouraging
students to serve and by calling for all educators to utilize service-learning as a teaching
methodology.

Use the public education system for the purposes under which it was initially createddeveloping and maintaining an informed and engaged citizenry. The One Michigan plan
calls for the institutionalization of a mandatory service requirement for high school
graduation. This is a very ambitious goal. Across the country, Maryland was the first and
remains one of the few states that has enacted this policy, but only after a strong mandate
from the Governor and a significant allocation of resources. 7
Service-learning can help. Currently only $800,000 is assigned to develop servicelearning programs in Michigan. 8 However, current K-12 education funding provides
flexibility for local schools to fund service-learning through other avenues. 9 In addition,
the Learning To Give program has hundreds oflesson plans teachers can use to help
educate young people on how and why service and philanthropy are important to a

6

While stronger than some other states, Michigan's volunteer support at the local level must be
strengthened. Currently only 65 percent of Michigan communities have access to a volunteer center.
Michigan's state governmental agencies have a sporadic record of encouraging volunteerism. Some
agencies have volunteer initiatives that support their work while also serving the needs of their clients.
Others rely on volunteers at the community level to deliver services to communities. The Office on
Services to the Aging has the strongest volunteer program with thousands of seniors serving across the state.
Yet, even with all its support, this agency is still working to provide its programs to every Michigan
community. If every state agency were called to engage volunteers, there would be the potential for
universal access to volunteer opportunities in Michigan.
7
In 1993, Maryland became the first state in the nation to require all public school students to engage in
service-learning activities as a pre-requisite for high school graduation. No other state has a similar
requirement yet, although many private schools and public school districts do have service requirements.
8
This represents the total federal funds allocated to Michigan for Learn &amp; Serve School-based and
Community-based programs.

healthy democracy. Even with these resources, the Governor's goal of mandatory service
may not be enacted.
To fully meet this goal, the Governor can engage the Department of Education to:
•
•
•
•

•

Increase the funding available to schools for service-learning programs.
Create resources for volunteer coordinator positions in schools or within
intermediate school districts to help match students with volunteer opportunities.
Establish a Board of Education liaison to work with local communities to promote
service opportunities for young people.
Call on colleges and universities with teacher education programs to promote
service-learning and provide the future classroom instructors with the tools they
need to make service an expectation and instill civic engagement in the next
generation of Michigan's leaders.
Engage young people and youth-serving organizations in an alliance for youth
service. This alliance would assess the needs of schools and young people to fully
and effectively enact the Governor's call to service.

Prepare

Empower residents to strengthen and ensure the safety of their community through
volunteerism.
Local communities need to ensure their safety and security even more in the postSeptember 11th world we live in now. Service as a strategy can help by developing local
planning for preparedness and crime prevention programs.
The MCSC is taking the lead in bringing the talents and resources of Michigan's
volunteers with our state and local emergency management professionals by:
•
•
•
•
•

Partnering with the Michigan State Police Emergency Management Division and
joining the Michigan Terrorism Taskforce;
Developing a statewide Citizen Corps Council; 10
Crafting a plan to revitalize neighborhood watch and crime prevention programs;
Creating a statewide training program for Community Emergency Response
Teams (CERT); and
Supporting the creation of local Citizen Corps Councils that will develop local
plans for engaging volunteers to ensure local security and safety.

°Citizen Corps Councils bring together local human service agencies with local emergency management
officials to develop community preparedness and prevention plans.

Celebrate
Regularly and publicly recognize individuals, businesses and organizations that engage
in exemplary service to their community.
Thousands of Michigan citizens volunteer every day. Their efforts go largely
unrecognized, but their efforts are vital to the health of a community. Encouraging every
citizen to volunteer requires that exemplary volunteer efforts be celebrated and heralded.
The Governor's Service Awards is Michigan's premiere program for volunteer
recognition.
The attached proposal for the Governor's Service Awards can provide Governor
Granholm a vehicle for spotlighting volunteers across Michigan. (See 2003 Governor's
Service Awards.)

Administrative Construct
Implementing service as a strategy will require that the Governor have a state agency with
the focused purpose of developing and supporting service and volunteerism. The MCSC
is designed for that very purpose. The MCSC' s proven track record of success offers
Governor Granholm a tool to enact a bold vision and agenda for citizen engagement. The
MCSC's mission and flexibility also make it difficult to place within a traditional state
government structure. The MCSC is not an education program, but it supports several
education initiatives. The MCSC is not a jobs program, but it engages hundreds of
Michigan citizens in full-time national service programs that teach them valuable skills.
The MCSC is not a public safety program, but it is driving initiatives to engage
volunteers in homeland security efforts. The MCSC is not a social services program, yet
it has underwritten programs that have supported Michigan's welfare clients. The MCSC
is not an agriculture program, but it supports water assessment programs. The MCSC
cuts across nearly all of state government and social issues. To be most effective in
enacting the Governor's call to service, the MCSC has to be able to partner with all state
agencies and have the mandate and active support of the Governor. Several models are
provided below to help inform the decision of how to best utilize and thereby structure
and house the MCSC.

Modell: Department of Commerce and Labor
Under this model the MCSC essentially remains in its current agency and transitions with
the Michigan Department of Career Development to the new Department of Commerce

and Labor. This would be inline with previous state government reorganizations. 11
Pros:
•
•
•

Remain with same fiscal agency with existing personnel and
administrative systems.
Exist within a state agency with a broad agency mandate (economic and
workforce development)
The MCSC members would remain autonomous and free to implement an
agenda solely focused on service and volunteerism.

Cons :
•
•
•

The MCSC would be a small element of a much larger agency and might
not receive the attention and support necessary to carry out its agenda.
Housed within an agency that is not focused on service and volunteerism.
Limits the MCSC's ability to work directly with the Governor' s Office to
enact her mandate.

Model 2: Michigan Department of Education (MDE)
Under this model, the MCSC would be reassigned to the MDE.
Pros:

•

•
•

A significant number of the MCSC ' s programs work eit
issues or within education ins·titutions
The MCSC partners with the MDEJ o promote an support servicelearning.
State Superintendent for Publi lnstruc.tie , Tom Watkins, serves as a
member of the MCSC.

In 1991, the MCSC was developed by executive order. As part of its creation, the MCSC was housed
within the Governor's Office, but its contracts, personnel and general administrative services were provided
by the Michigan Department of Labor. In 1994, the MCSC was reassigned to the Michigan Jobs
Commission (MJC) as part of another executive order. The same staff provided the same services as they
were transferred to the MJC. The MCSC is currently administratively housed within the Department of
Career Development. The Department provides the basic administrative functions including audit
resolution, budget development, accounting and human resources. The MCSC does not directly serve the
mission of the Department as it is not a jobs program.

Background
Michigan's Governors Commitments to Service
The call for citizen service is a long-standing tradition of public servants as a reminder to
all of the responsibilities associated with living in a healthy and vibrant democracy.
12

Members of the MCSC include representatives from the W.K. Kellogg and C.S. Mott Foundations,
General Motors Corporation, Council of Michigan Foundations, and Habitat for Humanity.

�DRAFT -NOT FOR PUBLIC DISTRUBUTION
Michigan's leaders have carried this tradition forward through the actions of its
Governors since the late Governor George W. Romney helped to give rise to the
volunteer center movement over thirty years ago. Since then Governors Milliken,
Blanchard and Engler have all placed their emphasis on service by providing their own
leadership and support.
Governor Romney's vision of providing universal access to volunteer centers spurred the
campaign that gave rise to the Points of Light Foundation, the President's Summit for
America' s Future in Philadelphia and America' s Promise: The Alliance for Youth 13 .
Governor Milliken focused on Volunteers in Michigan and made this a sub-component of
his administration 14 • Governor James Blanchard created one of the nation' s largest
youth-focused programs to get youth engaged with nonprofits while providing valuable
job skills through the Michigan Youth Corps 15 • In a showing of surprising
nonpartisanship, Governor Blanchard and Governor-elect John Engler held a press
conference with Governor Romney to publicly affirm that their commitment to service
will continue. The first spouses were present and agreed to work together on the
Campaign for Volunteerism. Shortly thereafter, Governor Engler created the Michigan
Community Service Commission and appointed First Lady Michelle Engler to serve as
chair. As a major component of her inaugural address, Governor Granholm called for
Michigan' s citizens to ignite the flames of engagement and become involved in service.
Infrastructure for Citizen Engagement In Michigan

Realization of Governor Granholm's call to civic engagement will require leadership,
infrastructure and constant high levels of interest and passion. We know this based on the
history of the volunteer movement nationally, which has strong Michigan connections.
While the state nickname ofTennessee is the "Volunteer State", Michigan is often touted
as one of the nation' s leaders in supporting and promoting volunteerism. This is due to
the strong infrastructure that has been developed over the past two decades.
Volunteer Opportunities

Michigan has an extensive network of volunteer centers. Volunteer centers serve
to support nonprofit organizations' most vital resource- volunteers. Volunteer
centers match volunteers with quality opportunities to serve. In addition,
volunteer centers serve as conveners for local organizations and individuals to
come together to deal with the most vexing community problems. Currently,
volunteer centers service approximately 65 percent of Michigan's communities.
13

The efforts of Governor Romney began after his departure as governor and was broadly called the
National Program for Voluntary Action which consisted of the privately-funded, non-political National
Center for Voluntary Action (NCVA) and the federal Office of Voluntary Action (OVA) which was the
service arm of the Cabinet Subcommittee on Voluntary Action created in 1969 by President Nixon and
chaired by Governor Romney.
14
Governor Milliken made volunteerism a subdepartment of the Department of Management and Budget.
15
The Michigan Youth Corps program created 40,000 jobs for young people.

�DRAFT- NOT FOR PUBLIC DISTRUBUTION
Michigan is one of a handful of states to have a state association for volunteer
centers and the only to be supported by an endowment.

K-16 Education
Students in Michigan are being encouraged to serve at every grade level, including
college. The Council ofMichigan Foundations is encouraging K-12 students
through the Learning to Give initiative that teaches philanthropy through hundreds
of teacher lesson plans-tied to the MEAP standards- that effectively teach
English, math, science and social studies with an emphasis on giving of one's
time, talent and treasurers.
Federal support is provided to school districts to encourage volunteering through
service-learning-an experiential teaching methodology that brings the lessons of
the classroom into the community. Learn &amp; Serve America programs are targeted
at schools and community-based organizations, but are limited in their scope due
to the small amount of funding ($800,000). Still, this program engages 50,000
volunteers annually. In addition, the Michigan Department of Education last
spring adopted a policy supporting service-learning as a viable and valuable
teaching methodology for Michigan' s teachers.
Higher education has taken a keen interest in encouraging service through the
Michigan Campus Compact. This organization brings together college and
university presidents to determine policy, gamer resources and engage in activities
that encourage student, faculty and administrators in civic action both on and off
campus.

Nonprofit Sector
Again, a leader among states, the Michigan Nonprofit Association is a support
organization for Michigan's nonprofits. It engages in the public policy arena by
providing analysis and advocacy services. This association also supports the fifth
largest state industry by providing training and technical assistance to nonprofit
boards and their staff. "Michigan In Brief' is published regularly by the Michigan
Nonprofit Association and the Council of Michigan Foundations and serves to
inform policy makers and the public on the most important issues facing our
communities and the nonprofit sector in Michigan.

Philanthropic Community
Every community in Michigan is serviced by a community foundation. More than
any other state in the nation, Michigan has provided universal access to the
resources and opportunities afforded by these community trusts. In addition,
Michigan is home to the nation' s leading Regional Association ofGrantmakersthe Council of Michigan Foundations. Supporting more than 400 foundations and

�DRAFT- NOT FOR PUBLIC DISTRUBUTION
corporations making grants for charitable purposes. The Council of Michigan
Foundations, through the support of the W.K. Kellogg Foundation, also led the
nation in developing youth advisory committees within community foundations to
help create the next generation of grantmakers. The Michigan Community
Foundation Youth Project invested more than $65 million dollars in endowments
and programs to support youth. Today, this initiative continues to encourage
youth philanthropy and has been heralded as a national model.
Alliance for Volunteerism

Bringing together all the forces in support ofMichigan's volunteers is the
ConnectMichigan Alliance. The ConnectMichigan Alliance is a nonprofit
organization that serves as a hub for the public and private sectors to support
volunteerism as a way of life for Michigan residents. This organization is a
partnership of the Michigan Nonprofit Association, Michigan Community Service
Commission, Michigan Campus Compact and the Volunteer Centers of Michigan
and is supported through a $20 million statewide endowment fund. The
ConnectMichigan Alliance promotes volunteerism and civic engagement
statewide through initiatives like Michigan' s Promise and ConnectMichigan
Campaign.

Governor Granholm's Tool to Advance Service as a Strategy
Nearly every governor in the nation has a tool to promote citizen engagement- state
service commissions. State service commissions are governor-appointed bodies designed
to promote volunteerism and administer national service programs funded by the
Corporation for National and Community Service. Some have utilized their state service
commissions to implement various elements of their agendas including large mento ring
and tutoring programs, public safety initiatives, environmental and forestry programs, and
youth development initiatives.
Michigan has taken the opportunity provided by its state commission on service to go
further than just passing through federal funds. We know that to truly strengthen
Michigan communities we must find unique, yet proven ways to solve local challenges.
That is why the MCSC uses service as a strategy to community problem solving. The
MCSC is the tool by which leadership, policy and resources are developed to advance this
enduring model of neighbor helping neighbor. The MCSC supports local and statewide
programs that focus on housing, education, technology, victim services, conflict
resolution, youth development and public safety. Whatever the issue, generally service
can provide a unique strategy for addressing it.
Michigan was one of the first states to create a state service commission (two years prior
to the federal government requiring their establishment to access federal national service

�DRAFT- NOT FOR PUBLIC DISTRUBUTION
funds). The MCSC was created in 1991 and codified in state law in 1994 16 . Since that
time it has engaged thousands of volunteers, administered and leveraged more than $70
million in public and private funds, and oversees the nation's only state-sponsored
volunteer center endowment grant program. Today, the MCSC is the lead agency for the
nation's largest national service program-AmeriCorps, and hosts the newest homeland
security program-Citizen Corps.
The MCSC is the state's only statutorily recognized body designed specifically to
promote and encourage Michigan citizens to volunteer. The 25 nonpartisan members of
the MCSC are appointed by the governor and serve as ambassadors for volunteerism and
stewards for the public and private funds annually distributed to support volunteeroriented programs. Members represent all sectors of Michigan society including
businesses, government, nonprofits and faith-based organizations 17 . Members represent
all demographics with a special emphasis on youth.
More than $8 million in state and federal dollars are administered by the MCSC with an
additional $4-6 million distributed to community foundations in support of local health
programs for youth and seniors. The MCSC operates Michigan's AmeriCorps-the
federal government's largest national service program for Michigan. The MCSC also
works with the Michigan Department of Education to administer the Learn &amp; Serve
America-the state's largest funding source for service-learning. Finally, the MCSC is
working with the Michigan State Police Emergency Management Division to distribute
and administer the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA) Citizen Corps
program in support of homeland security and preparedness.
Nationally, the MCSC is recognized as one of the leading state service commissions and
is often used as a model for other states. The MCSC has helped the nation's governors
recognize the power ofvolunteerism and the role it can play in addressing their agendas
by taking the lead at crafting and revising the National Governor's Association policy on
national and community service 18 . Both the Clinton and Bush administrations have
sought input from the MCSC on national service policy. The MCSC has representation
through its current and former members on the boards and staff of the Corporation for
National and Community Service, the Points of Light Foundation, America's Promise:
The Alliance for Youth, Habitat for Humanity International, W.K. Kellogg Foundation,
C.S. Mott Foundation and the Council on Foundations.
The MCSC has served as a focal point for state agencies to utilize volunteerism. The
Adopt-A-Part of Michigan programs use a toll-free number underwritten and staffed by
the MCSC. The Family Independence Agency operated a Michigan's AmeriCorps
program to recruit and place volunteers on behalf of their clients. The Michigan
Department of Agriculture and the Michigan Department of Environmental Quality

operated AmeriCorps programs granted through the MCSC. The MCSC works with the
Michigan Department of Education to administer the Learn &amp; Serve program for
Michigan.
The role of the MCSC as a grantmaking body to support volunteerism, its depth in
leadership demonstrated by its members, its partnerships with state agencies, its record of
using service as a strategy for community problem solving, and its connection to all
segments of Michigan society (profit, nonprofit, and social sectors) make it the ideal tool
to implement Governor Granholm's call to "light the flames of engagement."

MEMORANDUM

TO: Members of the MCSC Executive Committee
Russell G. Mawby, Chair
Robert Collier, Vice Chair
Michelle Engler
Vivian Pickard
Meg Smith
FROM: Kyle Caldwell, Executive Director
DATE: January 21, 2003
RE: Summary of January 17, 2003 Meeting

Commissioners Smith, Collier and Mawby and staff member Caldwell met via conference call
on January 17, 2003, at 10:00 a.m.

Agenda for Winter Meeting
Members reviewed the February 10, 2003, meeting agenda and approved its distribution with
minor modifications.
State of Michigan Executive Branch Transition
Commissioner Mawby explained that he and other commissioners including Commissioner
Collier made a number of overtures to the Granholm Administration in hopes of demonstrating
the value that MCSC can provide to the Governor's agenda. This was especially important in
light of her inaugural address that focused on citizen action and citizen service. Mr. Caldwell
shared a white paper that spelled out the work of the MCSC and tied much of the MCSC's
initiatives to the points articulated in the Govemor's address. The members asked that the
paper be modified to more strongly emphasize the MCSC's preference with regard to the
administrative location of the organization. Commissioner Collier agreed to share the modified
version with his contact within the administration.

Performance Review of Executive Director
Members present reviewed the process used to annually review the performance of the
Executive Director. Commissioners were infonned of the process used in the past that was
developed by former Commissioner Pruitt and agreed that the process should be continued.
Commissioner Maw by agreed to facilitate the process and would work with staff to distribute,
collect and analyze the surveys that commissioners will use to provide their feedback. The
process will begin at the February 101h meeting.
Other Items
Commissioners were briefed on the current State of Michigan budget and the challenges facing
the new Governor and the Michigan Legislature. The Governor was expected to issue an
executive order to deal with projected revenue shortfalls in the current fiscal year.
Mr. Caldwell also reviewed the latest progress of the Michigan Citizen Corps initiative, the

AmeriCorps enrollment freeze, federal budget and congressional actions taken to date.
Two additional executive committee meetings were scheduled to meet the funding approval
requirements of our federal grants: February 26, 2003 , and June 20, 2003. Both meetings will
be held via conference call and will begin at 10:00 a.m.
The meeting adjourned at 10:45 a.m.
