The C01porationjor National and Community Service I STRATEGIC PLAN

Executive Summary
People-diverse, passionate and committedmake America strong. Through national service and
volunteering, Americans from all walks of life contribute
to their communities and the nation. Today's social
and economic challenges are complex and require
comprehensive, integrated and innovative approaches to
shape solutions that work. Engaged citizens are at the
center of these solutions.
The Corporation for National and Community Service
(CNCS) empowers and supports Americans to tackle
persistent challenges such as helping youth succeed in
school, securing safe affordable housing for economically
disadvantaged families, or helping communities respond to
disasters. Through this work, CNCS achieves its mission of
improving lives, strengthening communities and fortifying
the civic health of our nation . .
CNCS, a fe deral agency, brings leadership, resources,
coordination , focus, and scale to America's voluntary sector.
Our programs unite the passion, commitment and talent of
participants with the assets of community organizations
and the funding from public and private sectors to
build enduring community capacity to solve problems.
CNCS supports a network of state service commissions,
intermediary organizations, grantees and sponsors (the
national service network) through which millions of
Americans help the most vulnerable citizens, improve their
neighborhoods, and transform their own lives. As a result
of the network, citizen-centered solutions take root, are
sustained, and transform communities and the nation.
For more than 45 years, successive Administrations of
both parties have made investments in national service
to engage citizens in solving problems and build the

2

capacity of America's voluntary sector. Sixteen years ago,
Congress created CNCS to engage Americans of all ages
and backgrounds in service to meet pressing national and
community needs, based on common-sense principles of
local control, competition, accountability, leveraging of
non-federal resources, and public-private partnership.
Through AmeriCorps, Learn and Serve America, Senior
Corps and our other programs and activities, five million
Americans serve with nearly 70,000 organizations in the
national service network. These organizations use national
. service.resources to develop innovative solutions across a
broad spectrum of issues.
In recognition of this successful foundation, Congress
in 2009 passed the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America
Act (Serve America Act) to bring national servi.ce to ...
higher levels of impact, innovation and effectiveness.
This landmark law, which passed with strong bipartisan
support, is an inflection point for CNCS and the foundation
for our Strategic Plan. The law directs CNCS to expand
opportunities to serve, build the capacity of individuals,
nonprofits and communities, and encourage innovative
approaches to addressing community challenges. The law
puts a strong emphasis on focusingnational service on a
core set of priority issue areas and measuring the impact
of service, and this directive is a guiding force for our
Strategic Plan.
We have an opportunity to leverage the effective programs
of the national service network to drive toward a specific set
of results on critical national issues. We will' produce these
results by investing in effective local initiatives, engaging
more Americans in service, supporting evidence-based
programs, and leveraging public-private partnerships.

�The Corporation for National and Community Service I STRATEGIC -PLAN

To focus our efforts, CNCS has the following four strategic
goals. These goals are the foundation for our Strategic Plan.
They also challenge us to lead and operate at the highest
level of accountability, integrity and transparency.

i. increase the impact of national service on
community needs in communities served by
GNGS-supported programs. ..
CNCS invests in community programs and projects
that achieve outcomes in Disaster Services, Economic
Opportunity, Education, Environmental Stewardship,
Healthy Futures, and Veterans and Military Families.
Going forward, our new investments will focus on
achieving a specific set of outcomes in these areas.

4. Fortify management operations and sustain a
capable·;· responsive'and ac-countable organization

We will work across programs and enhance our
operations to support evidence-based decision making
and a culture of performance. We will build upon our ·
current infrastructure to strengthen and enhance our
information technology systems, wor~force and financial
and grants rna nagement efforts.
As the blueprint guiding our work, the Strategic Plan
includes further details on the specific objectives,
strategies and performance measures which determine
how we will evaluate our success over the next five years.

2. Strengthen national service SO· that participants
engaged in CNCS-supported programs consistently
find satisfaction! meaning and oppaitunity

CNCS supports the national service network in
providing experiences that offer a unique combination
of professional, educational and life benefits to service
participants. The network also recruits a diversity of
P:.mericans, especially those from underrepresented
populations. We will collaborate with the· national service ·
network to strengthen outreach efforts in underserved
communities and to implement best practices that
ensure a powerful service experience.
3. M3 xirn ize the va[ue we add to grantees, partners
and participants

To support our focus on a specific set of community
outcomes and a powerful service experience, CNCS
will develop a relevant and accessible knowledge base
informed by research and rigorous evaluation, and
con duct capacity building activities that advance the
adoption of best practices.

match funds. During this pilot year there will be 39 members with 30 members starting
in the fall and an additional 9 members starting in January. Recruitment has begun and
will continue over the next month. The school sites are being determined based on
capacity issues with the following districts being considered: Detroit, Pontiac, Grand
Rapids, Godwin Heights, Godfrey-Lee, Kalkaska, Muskegon, Jackson, and Lansing. The
program originally was going to be funded through the Heart of West Michigan United
Way but will be transitioned over and the Hope Network will serve as the fiduciary and
will provide office space, equipment, and manage the financial aspects of the grant.

finalizing the grants for formula funding. Ben Gulker presented the staff

a special grant for Governor/Mayor initiatives. The MCSC has worked with Harvey
Hollins from the Governor's Office and Wayne State University Urban Safety Program to
replicate the program as a Governor initiative. The program was selected as one of eight
Governor's initiative programs and will expand the current program to three additional
neighborhoods. The 2013-14 formula allocation for Michigan is $3 ,185,940.
Additionally $133,000 in unobligated funds were available.

I.

Welcome and Introductions - Chair Bloodworth welcomed Commissioners at 1:30pm
and updated Commissioners on the Executive Director search. A candidate has been
selected and we hope to have them in place by June. She also thanked Commissioners
Lawson, Russell Johnson, Smith, and Watson-Olson who have agreed to serve on the
MCSC Board Retreat Planning Committee.

II.

Consent Agenda- Chair Bloodworth asked for a motion to approve the consent agenda
and the minutes from the January 17, 2013 MCSC board meeting. Commissioner Algra
motioned to approve the consent agenda and minutes; Commissioner Watson-Olson
seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously.

III.

Executive Director Report- Paula Kaiser VanDam
A. State Service Plan- Ms. VanDam explained that the MCSC is required by federal
statue to develop a State Service Plan every three years that talks about the overall
goals around service. The MCSC has enlisted Rachel Bruns, from Volunteer
Wisconsin and an ASC board member, to help facilitate the development of
Michigan's State Service Plan. She has helped Iowa and Wisconsin draft their plans.
The plan will be a representative plan for Michigan that includes not only the MCSC
but also all the partners. Ms. Bruns presented the plan to Commissioners. Strategic
priority areas include developing new service opportunities, improving existing
services and programs, expanding Michigan' s volunteer base, and building a culture
and climate for service. Commissioners will give final approval of the plan at the
August MCSC board meeting.
B. Michigan Civic Health Index -Ilir Zherka, National Conference on Citizenship,
shared information studies on civic engagement and economic vitality. When looking
at civic engagement nationwide, they focused on nonprofit density and social
cohesion. Jamie Wilson shared key findings from the Michigan Civic Health Index
which was released today at the Giving &amp; Volunteering Celebration.
C. Statewide Volunteerism Campaign- The MCSC and Volunteer Centers of Michigan
have contracted with Redhead Design Studio to develop a statewide volunteerism
campaign. Jen Estill and Racha Kardahji, of Redhead Design Studio, shared the
objectives of the campaign which include promote volunteerism in Michigan,
increase the number of volunteer activities, and increase the awareness of
volunteerism.
D. Russ Mawby Signature Service Project- Ms. VanDam shared information on the
2013 Russ Mawby Signature Service Project which will take place May 16-17 in
Lansing. More than 350 AmeriCorps members from across the state will participate.
Ms. VanDam thanked Commissioner Swartz for his efforts in helping to plan the
community projects. Commissioners are encouraged to attend.
E. Reimagining Service - Diana Algra updated Commissioners on the Reimagining
Service initiative. The Points of Light is the lead organization for the initiative. They
have released a request for proposal that the partners are going to respond to and hope
to be one of the eight pilot sites selected.

�IV.

AmeriCorps Funding- Paula Kaiser VanDam presented the staff recommendations for
School Turnaround AmeriCorps Funding. (see April 24, 2013 memo from Paula Kaiser
VanDam). In late February, the CNCS, in partnership with the U.S. Department of
Education, announced the Department of Education had allocated $5 million to fund
AmeriCorps programs that focused on school turnaround. The MCSC staff created a
request for proposal and received two applications, The Detroit Parent Network and the
Education Achievement Authority (EAA). After discussions with EAA, they decided to
move forward with the Michigan Reading Corps AmeriCorps program instead of this
opportunity. The MCSC staff is recommending the Detroit Parent Network for School
Turnaround AmeriCorps funding at $318,784 for 24 members. If this program doesn' t
get funded through this special opportunity, it will not be funded through the formula
funding process due to the timing of the notification.
Chair Bloodworth asked for a motion to approve the staff recommendations for the
AmeriCorps School Turnaround funding. Commissioner Collier motioned to
approve the staff recommendations; Commissioner Algra seconded the motion. The
motion passed unanimously with Commissioner Alexander abstaining.

V.

Michigan Reading Corps- Commissioner Tony Campbell updated Commissioners on
Michigan Reading Corps. The data for the two pilot sites for this year is showing that
80% of the students being tutored are now reading at grade level. The districts have
become a huge supporter of the program and are sharing their feedback with other
districts. School recruitment is moving forward with packets being distributed to school
districts and superintendents and webinars being held. There were visits to Flint,
Kalkaska, Lansing and Muskegon. We currently have 11 applications from schools. We
need help with getting schools in Flint, Jackson, Pontiac and Saginaw which are key
communities. Member recruitment is currently taking place and to date there are 145
candidates that are interested in serving as a member. Financial resources include
projected resources from DHS through Pathways ($300,000), W.K. Kellogg Foundation
($200,000), Steelcase Foundation ($100,000), Lansing United Way ($30,000), and
Muskegon United Way ($30,000).

VI.

Governor' s Service Awards- Janice Harvey updated Commissioners on the 2013 event.
The nomination process began in January and 144 nominations were submitted. The peer
review has taken place and the 40 finalists have been selected. Fundraising proposals and
letters have been sent. A list of potential sponsors was shared and Commissioners are
encouraged to contact them to ask them to sponsor. Our fundraising goal is $125 ,000.

VII.

CNCS Funding Update- Ms. VanDam shared the President released his FY14 budget
and the CNCS has a $5 million increase overall. The Volunteer Generation Fund is in the
budget at $10 million (which was zeroed out in FY13 budget). State commission' s
administrative grants increased over $1 million but are still down from where we were in
FY11 . When you combine it with the cuts that states received from training dollars and
the elimination of the disability and inclusion funding, state commission funding will be
down in overall operations funding.

�VIII.

CNCS Update- Cathy Sharp shared that Senior Corps week is May 6-10. Senior Corps
organizations are planning events that week and have a proclamation from the Governor.
CNCS is conducting a national volunteer survey of Senior Corps members to measure the
benefits of volunteering and how volunteering has helped their health. AmeriCorps
VISTA is receiving concept papers for summer associates. Michigan will have 63
summer associates serving at the United Way of Southeast Michigan and other locations
throughout the state. The first Mayors Day of Recognition of National Service took
place on April 9th . We had 13 mayors in Michigan participate either through
proclamations or attending events. Cathy thanked the MCSC staff for their help with the
Lansing and Grand Rapids events. There were also events in Kalamazoo, Flint and
Detroit.

IV.

Other Business
A.
Mission Statement- Chair Bloodworth explained that the MCSC would like to
update the mission statement. Commissioners would like to use "service as a
strategy" in the mission statement. Two draft MCSC Mission Statements were
shared and Commissioners were asked for their feedback. Commissioners liked the
following statement but would like some additional changes to strengthen it: The
Michigan Community Service Commission promotes and encourages volunteer
service as a means to strengthen communities and address the state' s most pressing
issues. Commissioner Swartz made a motion to support the statement with
changes and to have staff rework the statement and share with Commissioners;
Commissioner Algra supported the motion. The motion passed unanimously.
Staff will make changes to the statement and share at the next meeting.

�Governor's Service Awards Talking Points
•

For 20 years Michigan's Governors have presented the Governor's Service Awards

•

This year's finalists, 40 in total, will be recognized on Tuesday, July 23 at the Meijer
Gardens in Grand Rapids .

•

Finalists for 2013 Governor's Service Awards were selected from 145 nominations.

•

The awards ceremony entitled , "An Evening with the Stars" will highlight award
presentations and feature performances by Michigan musical artists Three Men and A
Tenor (who performed at 2009 Governor's Service Awards at Governor's Residence) .

•

Invitations have been sent out and Janice is taking RSVP 's from finalists , nominators,
and special guests.

•

Media Coverage:
o This year we utilized the DHS communications dep·artment to distribute our GSA
finalist press release to a wider audience.
o Their regionalized distribution approach helped us to get great coverage of our
finalist press release in five different media markets.
Commissioners are encouraged to attend the event.
o Your presence at the event as an MCSC Commissioner will help to illustrate the
board's commitment to the event and to the volunteer sector.
o In addition, it is a fun and inspiring event that I know you will all enjoy.
o The official award ceremony will begin at 7:00p.m.
o Prior to the award ceremony, there is one-hour reception with Governor Snyder
and all of the finalists. This event begins at 5:30p .m. and during this time, the
Governor will be circulating the rooms taking photos with the finalists .
o As staff will be busy preparing for the main event, I'm hoping Commissioners
attending the event will act as hosts/hostesses at the reception by welcoming
guests and sponsors and thanking them for coming .
Need help from Commissioners on follow up with sponsors. This year's sponsors
include Commissioner Algra , Amway, Comer Holdings/Lear, Consumers Energy,
Council of Michigan Foundation , Ford Motor Company Fund , and Meijer. We need to
have sponsors confirmed by July 81h to be in the program .

                    <text>Volunteer Michigan is a statewide initiative that facilitates the increased recruitment, engagement, and tracking of
volunteers to address key issues in communities across Michigan. It increases the capacity and infrastructure of
organizations to more effectively engage volunteers, including those from specific population groups such as youth,
adults' age 55 years and older and highly-skilled volunteers.

Days of Service
The Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC), Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA), Volunteer Centers of
Michigan (VCM), The League Michigan, and Michigan Campus Compact (MiCC), with support from Youth Service
America and the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS), announced the distribution of more than
$10,000 in mini-grant funds to support 2013 Global Youth Service Day (GYSD) projects across the state. Thanks to these
mini-grants, hundreds of Michigan youth will lend their considerable resources to addressing critical issues in their
communities this April.
Twenty-eight organizations from across Michigan received the funds to coordinate service projects that tackle critical
challenges in their communities; including education, economic opportunity, health, clean energy and environmental
stewardship, hunger, homelessness, and public safety. Grants range in value from $87 to $500.
Global Youth Service Day is an annual volunteer event that celebrates and mobilizes the millions of children and youth
who improve their communities each day through service and service-learning. The official dates of 2013 GYSD are April
26, 27, and 28, but many projects will occur outside of those dates . There are currently 76 registered projects in th e
state .

Reimaging Service
Reimagining Service is a national, multi-sector coalition dedicated to increasing social impact through effective volu nteer
engagement. It seeks to increase the impact of volunteers through : practice, research, and funding .
The Michigan Partners continue to meet and work on bringing the Reimaging Service Initiative to our state sometime in
the fall of 2013. The Points of Light has released a request for proposal that the partners are working to respond to . The
application is due May 3, 2013, with selected pilot sites notified by May 17, 2013 . If selected, Michigan would participate
in a kick-off meeting in Washington, D.C. during the National Conference on Volunteering and Service held June 19-22,
2013. The partners are excited about the potential of being one of eight pilot sites selected.

Statewide Public Relations Campaign on Volunteerism
One component of the work funded through the Volunteer Generation Fund, is a statewide campaign focused on
increasing public awareness for service and volunteering. In order to accomplish this, the MCSC, with their key partners
(MNA, VCM, MiCC, CNCS and The LEAGUE Michigan) has engaged a local public relations firm , Redhead Design Stud io
(Redhead) . Redhead will help craft a campaign to meet the goal of greater exposure and local impact that service and
volunteering has on local communities and in the state as a whole. Account representatives from Redhead will be
provide a presentation at the April 24, 2013 MCSC Board meeting .
Michigan Civic Health Index
The MCSC, in partnership with MNA, VCM, CNCS, MiCC, The LEAGUE Michigan, and the Council of Michigan
Foundations, will unveil the first-ever Michigan Civic Health Index at the 2013 Giving and Volunteering Celebration on
April 24, 2013 . The report summarizes how Michiganders are engaged in civic activities such as volunteerism and
philanthropy. The results of the report will act as a benchmark for measuring Michigan's civic engagement and growth in
those arenas going forward .

�REDEFINE VOLUNTEERING

Promote a definition of volunteering which states that any act of kindness,
large or small is an act of volunteering
Sharing your civic duty with others inspires a movement
Volunteering could take five minutes of your time
You don't have to belong to an organization to call yourself a volunteer
Any good deed makes a difference

The School Turnaround AmeriCorps initiative is a collaborative effort by the
Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) and the U.S.
Department of Education (ED) to increase educational achievement, high
school graduation rates, and college readiness for students in our nation' s
lowest-performing elementary, middle, and high schools.

School Turnaround AmeriCorps, in coordination with local school and local
education agency turnaround efforts under School Improvement Grants and
Elementary and Secondary Education Act flexibility, will support schools
and communities in improving student performance. School Turnaround
AmeriCorps also expands on the efforts of Together for Tomorrow, a
cooperative initiative among ED, CNCS, and the White House Office of
Faith-based and Neighborhood Partnerships to boost community engagement
in turning around the nation's lowest-performing schools.

Approximately $5 million is available for this grant competition nationally,
subject to the availability of full-year appropriations. CNCS expects to award
individual grants between $250,000 and $1 ,000,000 for cost reimbursement
grants (and a minimum of20 full-time equivalent members) and between
$16,000 and $80,000 for education-award fixed-amount grants.

School Turnaround AmeriCorps programs are to be focused very narrowly
and can be operated within schools that meet the following criteria:

�1. Tier I and Tier II schools that are receiving School Improvement Grant funds to
implement one ofthe four SIG models;
2. Tier I and Tier II schools that, at the time of the applicant' s application
submission, have been formally notified that they will recei~e SIG funds to
implement a SIG model in the 2013-2014 school year; and,
3. Priority schools that are implementing in the 2012-2013 school year or will
implement in the 2013-2014 school year interventions aligned with the ESEA
flexibility turnaround principles.
Grants will fund projects that serve eligible schools not currently served by a national
service program (e.g., AmeriCorps State and National, Volunteers in Service to America
(VISTA), Foster Grandparents, etc.), or will support expansion and better coordination of
existing national service activities in those schools. All projects funded under this Notice
are expected to improve student academic performance, academic engagement,
attendance outcomes, or some combination thereof, in eligible schools
Grants will fund projects that address multiple student needs and are aligned with
comprehensive school turnaround plans. All grants must include one or more of the
following:
• Providing ongoing mechanisms for family and community engagement.
• Establishing a school culture and environment that improve school safety,
attendance, and discipline and address other non-academic factors that impact
student achievement, such as students ' social, emotional, and health needs.
• Accelerating students' acquisition of reading and mathematics knowledge and
skills;
• Increasing graduation rates through strategies such as early warning systems,
credit-recovery programs, andre-engagement strategies.
• Increasing college enrollment rates through college preparation counseling
assistance to include completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid
(FAFSA) and college applications, and educating students and their families on
financial literacy for college; or
• Supporting school implementation of increased learning time.
Applicants are also required to use standardized, priority education performance
measures.
Given the narrow focus of funding, the MCSC conducted targeted outreach to eligible
applicants and provided extensive one-on-one technical assistance with interested
organizations. While there was broad interest in the opportunity, the MCSC received one
(1) application for the School Turnaround AmeriCorps competition. This applicant is
considered "new" and is not a current grantees of the MCSC or CNCS.
The MCSC recommends that the following application be included in the MCSC's
application submission to the Corporation for National and Community Service:

Michigan 's State Service Plan articulates the aspirations of MCSC and its partners to expa nd
national service and volunteerism to strengthen Michigan communities. The plan
encompasses a three-year period and some action steps may not be implemented until the
year three. The ability to implement this plan is dependent on a number of factors including
federa l and state funding and the participation of a number of current and potential partners.
The State Service Plan is a dynamic document that must be viewed as a blueprint, not a
stringent course. Throughout the plan timeframe, additional priorities may arise not reflected in
this plan and it is important for MCSC and its partners to respond appropriately.

Michigan Department of Education Proposal

Program Overview
Michigan Reading Corps (MiRC) leverages the power of community service to improve reading
levels for early elementary children . As a local affiliate of the Minnesota Reading Corps, this
program builds on their demonstrated impact on students, schools, AmeriCorps members and
communities . In 2013-2014, Michigan Reading Corps will place between 50 and 75 Reading
Corps members in over 20 schools throughout the state. They will serve students in grades K-3
who are identified as being at-risk of reading failure . Based on this
analysis, MiRC has identified its program participants as Tier II , or
children who have the capacity to learn to read at grade level but
who experience more prolonged , intense, and often permanent
literacy struggles and would benefit from these timely and
effective data-driven interventions.
Over the school year, program participants will receive
20 minutes of one-on-one literacy tutoring five days
Tier 1
per week . Working closely with building reading
experts, Reading Corps members will work to
isolate a child 's specific skill challenges and tailor

research-based , scripted , and standardized
interventions that focus on fluency to build specific
skills in young readers.
AmeriCorps members will provide ongoing support until the child acquires key literacy skills that
place him or her on track to achieve proficiency by grade 3, at which time the student will be
"exited " from the program. Each member will tutor 25-30 children during the course of the
school year. The member will continue to monitor the exited child during the year to be sure
that he or she maintains reading skills.
The MiRC pilot program is already making a difference for students in the Godwin Heights and
Godfrey Lee school districts, both located in Kent County. Initial reports show that several
MiRC participants have already achieved grade-level reading with the help of the program and
many more students are making academic gains with this intervention . In fact , the average
MiRC student spends only seven weeks in the program before he or she is able to read at grade
level. The program is being piloted in Grand Rapids with the intent to grow the program
statewide. With expansion, this program will help thousands of Michigan students achieve third
grade reading proficiency, aligning with Michigan Department of Education priorities.

Figure 2: Assessment data is captured weekly for MiRC students and plotted on graphs, which are used to make data driven
decisions by school staff. Black lines show growth target, red dots show assessment results, and dotted red lines show
trends in plotted points.

Heart of West Michigan United Way and the Michigan Community Service Commission are
working together to select between 25-30 rural and urban elementary schools that are "priority"
or very low performing schools for the MiRC expansion . MiRC will place 2-3 Reading Corps
members in each one of the qualifying schools.

Impact
MiRC combines multiple evidence-based practices with system-wide implementation that is
focused on getting results- and does so quickly, effectively and at less cost than other existing
reading programs. Data from Minnesota revealed that in 2011 , 80% of the 3rd grade students
who successfully exited the Minnesota Read ing Corps model passed the 3rd grade state test-significant given that every child served was identified as at significant risk of failing this crucial
benchmark. This score even exceeded the statewide pass rate for all 3rd grade students , 78% .
In five years , MiRC estimates it will grow to provide literacy interventions to 31 ,500 struggling
readers in the first 6 years . MiRC expects to achieve similar outcomes resulting in
approximately 25 ,200 students passing 3rd grade state tests that would otherwise stay on a
trajectory to failure. The impact projected from MiRC during the initial 5 years follows results
seen in Minnesota :

F1gure 3: Impact of Mmnesota Readmg Corps m 1ts f1rst 5 years

Cost Effectiveness
AmeriCorps member service will benefit the child , the family and the community , producing
measurable results with economic value . State costs per student served will be only $196 . For
every $196 the state invests, an additional $765 will be matched by federal and private funds .

�In addition , we expect to replicate the cost-savings Minnesota Department of Education
realized , by decreasing special education referrals for Reading Corps participants. Children
who graduate from the program in Minnesota are three times less likely to be placed in a
Special Education program. It is estimated that the average cost for a child in special education
is three times that of the average pupil. Replicating Minnesota's results will save up to $4000 for
every Michigan child that is not referred to special education.
Expansion
Through 2019, MiRC plans to expand by 50 members per year, beginning with 50 to 75
AmeriCorps members in the upcoming 2013-14 school year. This growth will allow the program
to expand to 25 new schools per year, serving an additional 1500 students in each year of
expansion. Staffing structure of the program will reflect expansion such that ratios of staff-tomembers remain at manageable levels.
Request

Michigan Reading Corps is requesting $706 ,800 from the Michigan Department of Education
(MOE) for year one of the MiRC program and a total of $5,914,200 over five years. A five year
growth plan showing the resources that state dollars will leverage from federal and private
sources is included . For every state dollar contributed , almost four will be leveraged from private
and federal sources.

Executive Director Report- Paula Kaiser VanDam
A. State Service Plan- Ms. VanDam explained that the MCSC is required by federal
statue to develop a State Service Plan every three years that talks about the overall
goals around service. The MCSC has enlisted Rachel Bruns, from Volunteer
Wisconsin and an ASC board member, to help facilitate the development of
Michigan's State Service Plan. She has helped Iowa and Wisconsin draft their plans.
· The plan will he a representative plan for Michigan that -indudesnot only the MCSC
but also all the partners. Ms. Bruns presented the plan to Commissioners. Strategic
priority areas include developing new service opportunities, improving existing
services and programs, expanding Michigan ' s volunteer base, and building a culture
and climate for service. Commissioners will give final approval of the plan at the
August MCSC board meeting.
B. Michigan Civic Health Index -Ilir Zherka, National Conference on Citizenship,
shared information studies on civic engagement and economic vitality. When looking
at civic engagement nationwide, they focused on nonprofit density and social
cohesion. Jamie Wilson shared key findings from the Michigan Civic Health Index
which was released today at the Giving &amp; Volunteering Celebration.
C. Statewide Volunteerism Campaign - The MCSC and Volunteer Centers of Michigan
have contracted with Redhead Design Studio to develop a statewide volunteerism
campaign. Jen Estill and Racha Kardahji, of Redhead Design Studio, shared the

increase the number of volunteer activities, and increase the awareness of
volunteerism.
D. Russ Mawby Signature Service Project - Ms. VanDam shared information on the
2013 Russ Mawby Signature Service Project which will take place May 16-17 in
Lansing. More than 350 ArneriCorps members from across the state will participate.

�IV.

AmeriCorps Funding- Paula Kaiser VanDam presented the staffrecommendations for
School Turnaround AmeriCorps Funding. (see April 24, 2013 memo from Paula Kaiser
VanDam). In late February, the CNCS, in partnership with the U .S. Department of
Education, announced the Department of Education had allocated $5 million to fund
AmeriCorps programs that focused on school turnaround. The MCSC staff created a
request for proposal and received two applications, The Detroit Parent Network and the
·Education Achievement Authority (EAA). After discussions with EAA, they decided to
move forward with the Michigan Reading Corps AmeriCorps program instead of this
opportunity. The MCSC staff is recommending the Detroit Parent Network for School
Turnaround AmeriCorps funding at $318,784 for 24 members. If this program doesn' t
get funded through this special opportunity, it will not be funded through the formula
funding process due to the timing of the notification.

Chair Bloodworth asked for a motion to approve the staff recommendations for the
AmeriCorps School Turnaround funding. Commissioner Collier motioned to
approve the staff recommendations; Commissioner Algra seconded the motion. The
motion passed unanimously with Commissioner Alexander abstaining.
V.

Michigan Reading Corps- Commissioner Tony Campbell updated Commissioners on
Michigan Reading Corps. The data for the two pilot sites for this year is showing that
80% of the students being tutored are now reading at grade level. The districts have
become a huge supporter of the program and are sharing their feedback with other
districts. School recruitment is moving forward with packets being distributed to school
districts and superintendents and webinars being held. There were visits to Flint,
Kalkaska, Lansing and Muskegon. We currently have 11 applications from schools. We
need help with getting schools in Flint, Jackson, Pontiac and Saginaw which are key
communities. Member recruitment is currently taking place and to date there are 145
candidates that are interested in serving as a member. Financial resources include
projected resources from DHS through Pathways ($300,000), W .K. Kellogg Foundation
($200,000), Steelcase Foundation ($100,000), Lansing United Way ($30,000), and
Muskegon United Way ($30,000).

VI.

Governor' s Service Awards - Janice Harvey updated Commissioners on the 2013 event.
The nomination process began in January and 144 nominations were submitted. The peer
review has taken place and the 40 finalists have been selected. Fundraising proposals and
letters have been sent. A list of potential sponsors was shared and Commissioners are
encouraged to contact them to ask them to sponsor. Our fundraising goal is $125 ,000.

VII.

CNCS Funding Update - Ms. VanDam shared the President released his FY14 budget
and the CNCS has a $5 million increase overall. The Volunteer Generation Fund is in the
budget at $10 million (which was zeroed out in FY13 budget). State commission' s
administrative grants increased over $1 million but are still down from where we were in
FY11. When you combine it with the cuts that states received from training dollars and
the elimination of the disability and inclusion funding , state commission funding will be
down in overall operations funding.

�VIII.

CNCS Update- Cathy Sharp shared that Senior Corps week is May 6-10. Senior Corps
organizations are planning events that week and have a proclamation from the Governor.
CNCS is conducting a national volunteer survey of Senior Corps members to measure the
benefits of volunteering and how volunteering has helped their health. AmeriCorps
VISTA is receiving concept papers for summer associates. Michigan will have 63
summer associates serving at the United Way of Southeast Michigan and other locations
throughout the state. The first Mayors Day of Recognition ofNational Service took
place on April 91h. We had 13 mayors in Michigan participate either through
proclamations or attending events. Cathy thanked the MCSC staff for their help with the
Lansing and Grand Rapids events. There were also events in Kalamazoo, Flint and
Detroit.

IV.

Other Business
A.
Mission Statement- Chair Bloodworth explained that the MCSC would like to
update the mission statement. Commissioners would like to use "service as a
strategy" in the mission statement. Two draft MCSC Mission Statements were
shared and Commissioners were asked for their feedback. Commissioners liked the
following statement but would like some additional changes to strengthen it: The
Michigan Community Service Commission promotes and encourages volunteer
service as a means to strengthen communities and address the state' s most pressing
issues. Commissioner ·Swartz made a motion to support the ·statement with
changes and to have staff rework the statement and share with Commissioners;
Commissioner Algra supported the motion. The motion passed unanimously.
Staff will make changes to the statement and share at the next meeting.

�I.

Welcome and Introductions- Chair Bloodworth welcomed Commissioners at 12:10 pm.
MEA President Steve Cook welcomed Commissioners to their offices. Chair Bloodworth
explained that beginning with the April MCSC Board Meeting, we will be moving to a
consent agenda.

II.

Review &amp; Approval ofNovember 17, 2012 Minutes- Chair Bloodworth asked for a
motion to approve the minutes from the November 17, 2012 MCSC board meeting.
Commissioner Price motioned to approve the minutes; Commissioner Lawson
seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously.

III.

Standing Committee Reports
A.
Executive Committee- Minutes from January 9, 2013 Meeting. Chair
Bloodworth asked for a motion to approve the Executive Committee minutes
from January 9, 2013. Commissioner Lawson motioned to approve the
minutes; Commissioner Niester seconded the motion. The motion passed
unanimously.

IV.

Executive Director Report- Paula Kaiser VanDam
MCSC Staff Transition- Ms. VanDam shared with Commissioners that she has
permanently been named the Director of the Bureau of Community Service so we
will begin the process of hiring a new Executive Director for the MCSC. The
posting for the position has been shared through our network in Michigan and
also nationally. A few Commissioners will be asked to participate in the selection
panel/interview process for the new Executive Director. The MCSC will remain
an initiative of the Bureau so Paula won't be so closely involved in the day-to-day
operations of the MCSC she will be involved in the strategic way of advancing
the work with the Department of Human Services and the Governor' s
administration. This should expand the capacity ofthe MCSC once we hire the
new Executive Director. Commissioners recognized Paula for her many years of
service to the MCSC.

B.

Program Updates
1. Ameri Corps - Staff recommendations for Michigan' s Ameri Corps competitive
funding were presented to Commissioners. Jeanine Yard and Ben Gulker walked
through the application process and the recommendations. The MCSC received
27 applications from existing grantees and new applicants. The applications went
through a two-step review process; first a peer review and then a staff review.
The CNCS focus areas for funding which include education, health, economic
opportunity, environment, veterans and their families , and disaster preparedness.
There are two types of AmeriCorps funding- competitive and formula. Fourteen
applications are being recommended for competitive funding (new and
recompetes ), three applications are being recommended to be considered for
formula funding along with any of the 14 applications that are not successful in
competitive funding, and 10 applications are not being recommended for funding.
In additional to the 27 new and recompete applications, the MCSC also received 7
continuation applications, which are grantees that are in year one or two of their
three-year grant and are seeking funding for another year.
2

�Ben Gulker presented the AmeriCorps Competitive Application new and
recompete staff recommendations. (see January 17, 2013 memo from Paula
Kaiser VanDam).

Chair Bloodworth asked for a motion to approve the staff recommendations
for the AmeriCorps Competitive funding. Commissioner Algra motioned to
approve the staff recommendations; Commissioner Lawson seconded the
motion. The motion passed unanimously with the following Commissioners
abstaining: David Price (Peckham, Goodwill, MNA), Breannah Alexander
(MNA), Diana Algra, (MNA), Tony Campbell (Heart of West Michigan
United Way), Rob Collier (Michigan Association of United Way and MNA),
Carolyn Bloodworth (MNA).
Commissioners requested information on grantee past performance in the staff
recommendations for funding. The CNCS will notify the MCSC in May/June
with the programs that will be funding competitively. Once we receive that
notification, the MCSC will prepare the formula funding recommendations for
Commissioner approval.
Megan Sargent shared additional AmeriCorps updates. The AmeriCorps
LeaderCorps retreat will take place in late January. The LeaderCorps is
comprised of one member from each program who serves as a liaison between the
program and the MCSC. There are three leadership teams: Outreach and
Communications, Alumni and Member Engagement, and Diversity and Inclusion.
This year the LeaderCorps will focus on alumni and member experience. They
are also champions for AmeriCorps in general and help connect members from
their programs to members from other programs. AmeriCorps Week will be
March 9-17 and is an opportunity to shine the light on what AmeriCorps members
are doing. Michigan' s AmeriCorps programs will plan awareness and
recognition events along with service projects during this week. It is also a good
opportunity to education legislators. Commissioners are also invited to attend
events that take place during that week in their communities. The 2013 Russ
Mawby Signature Service Project will be held May 16-17 in Lansing. The MCSC
brings AmeriCorps members from around the state together for this two-day
service project which is a good way showcase the power of AmeriCorps. We will
holding the kickoff event on the steps of the Capitol.
Commissioner Mike Hill updated Commissioners on Michigan Reading Corps.
He thanked Commissioners Tony Campbell and Julie Calley for their leadership
on this initiative. Thirty-two percent of Michigan third graders are not reading at
grade level. Third grade reading proficiency is a key indicator of high school
drop-out rates. The Heart of West Michigan United Way is a pilot site for the
program in Michigan. The MCSC is looking at developing a three-year program.
The Heart of West Michigan United Way would serve as the fiscal agency . There
would be an RFP process for schools/buildings to apply to participate. We are
looking at 75 AmeriCorps members in the first year that will be coached on how
to tutor young children in literacy. They would work with at-risk children for 20
minutes every day. The MCSC has requested just over $1 million in our
3

�AmeriCorps Competitive application for Michigan Reading Corps (Heart of West
Michigan United Way). We would like to launch this during the 2013-14 school
year so will need the 75 AmeriCorps members ready to start. The challenge is
that the MCSC will not hear back on the competitive funding request until June.
That will make the launch in August/September very tight. The Michigan
Reading Corps Commissioner Advisory Committee is recommending the
Commission designate $666,000 in formula funds for Michigan Reading Corps in
case it is not awarded competitive funds. Ifthe program is funded competitively,
then the $660,000 of formula funds would be used to support other AmeriCorps
formula applications. This approval will allow the program to proceed with the
selection of sites and assignment of member slots to be able to begin in
September. Commissioner Hill stated that the Advisory Committee will be
meeting with Superintendent Mike Flanagan in February to share information on
the Michigan Reading Corps along with a meeting with DHS Director Maura
Corrigan. We are also discussing ways to raise the required match dollars. Startup match requirement estimates are $10,000 per AmeriCorps member. We know
schools are not in the position to pay $10,000 per member. They will make a
contribution to the program through in-kind by providing a staff member who will
serve as an internal coach to the members in their building and will be working
with those members on an on-going basis in coaching them in their tutoring and
problem solving skills. The MCSC will be strategic in choosing the geographic
areas served, overall growth, and assist with raising the required match dollars.
Where we can raise the match dollars may impact where the program will be in
the first couple ofyears because funders may have specific geographic interests.
Ms. VanDam stated that in order to demonstrate the value of the MCSC and the
power of national service, it is going to be really important for us to think
critically about a critical issue that we want to use the resources that we have to
make a difference and to be able to demonstrate that. The last couple of years, the
small amount of general funds that the MCSC receives (approximately $700,000
has been called into question from the legislature. We are at a critical point that
we have to be able to demonstrate the value of the MCSC and particularly what
we do around critical issues in our state. Funding a model like the Minnesota
Reading Corps, which has been in existence for 10 years and has great data to
show the difference they are making, will give us the data to demonstrate the
value of national service around a particular issue.
Chair Bloodworth asked for a motion to approve the Commissioner
recommendation for supporting Michigan Reading Corps with $660,000 in
formula funding if it is not funded competitively. Commissioner Smith
motioned to approve the recommendation; Commissioner Lawson seconded
the motion. The motion passed unanimously with Breannah Alexander and
Tony Campbell abstaining.

2. Mentor Michigan - Amber Troupe shared updates on Mentor Michigan. The
DNR Fisheries Division employees hosted a silent auction with the proceeds
donated to Mentor Michigan. The funds will be distributed through mini-grants
to mentoring organizations to do fishing-related activities including transportation
to fishing events or to purchase fishing poles to have at their office that
4

�mentee/mentor matches can borrow for a match activity. She also shared that the
National Mentoring Summit will take place on January 24-25 in Washington DC.
The Lt. Governor Brian Calley and Commissioner Julie Calley will join the
Michigan delegation, including Paula and Amber, at the Summit. He will speak
during a plenary session to highlight the importance of men to ring and the great
work we are doing in Michigan. Also, January is National and Michigan
Mentoring Month. Mentor Michigan has provided the field with a variety of tools
and resources to promote mentoring and recruitment event mini-grants. Nearly
$10,000 was awarded to 19 organizations to support mentor recruitment events.
3. Volunteer Michigan - Ms. VanDam shared that Angelia Salas, the MCSC
program officer for Volunteer Michigan, has left the MCSC staff for another
position. We have made the strategic decision to not replace this position
immediately until we see how the federal appropriations play out. In the interim
Diana Algra and the Volunteer Centers of Michigan, who have been an important
partner in this work, will take on some additional responsibilities, specifically
related to the Volunteer Generation Fund Grant. We will also expand the work of
Bob Kahle, the evaluator for this initiative, to take on some of the site visit work.
The MCSC and partners will promote MLK Day and will award 21 grants
(approximately $8,000) to organizations that will coordinate service projects.
There are 44 registered service projects for MLK Day. DHS Director Corrigan
will participate in a project hosted by one of our AmeriCorps programs in Detroit.
Commissioner Algra updated Commissioners on the Reimaging Service initiative
which is looking increasing the social impact of effective volunteer engagement
and increasing the impact of volunteers through practice, research, and funding.
The Michigan partners are trying to bring the model (created in California) to
Michigan and using the curriculum to train nonprofits in how to effectively
engage volunteers. The training is not on volunteer management and best
practices, it is on training nonprofits to understand in engaging volunteers as a
central focus of that agency' s work. There will be a national rollout of this work
with an RFP process to State Commissions and other affiliates interested in the
implementation of this initiative. Ms. VanDam also shared that there is a
possibility that the MCSC will need to raise funds to support this initiative and
there is not funds available in the MCSC and VCM budget to support it.
Ms. VanDam also shared information on this year' s Giving and Volunteering
Celebration which will take place on Wednesday, April24, on the lawn of the
State Capitol. The event is held during National Volunteer Week. During the
event the key partners (MCSC, MNA, CMF, VCM, MCC, CNCS and The
LEAGUE Michigan) will bring awareness and recognition of the impact that
volunteering is having in our state. We will also unveil the first Michigan Civic
Health Index Report and will do a call to action as a result of some of the
indicators from the report. We will also be recognizing an AmeriCorps Alumn
and Senior Corps volunteer. The State of Michigan Social Media office
approached the MCSC in rolling out a statewide social media "pay it forward"
campaign called #MiGoodDeeds and will encourage people to volunteer.

5

�We convinced them to launch in April during the Giving and Volunteering event.
Recourses will be available to find information on volunteering, and we will be
profiling the Governor' s Service Awards finalists, Global Youth Service Awards,
and then conclude with our Signature Service Project in May.
4. Governor' s Service Awards - Ms. VanDam explained that the nomination
forms have been distributed for the 2013 Governor's Service Awards and are due
March 1. The Executive Committee requested that the event be moved to a
different location as it is been in Detroit for the past three years. The 2013 event
will be held in Grand Rapids at the Meijer Gardens at the end of July. We will
begin the fundraising for the event and will do additional outreach to
organizations in Grand Rapids since the event will be there this year.
Commissioners will be asked to assist with the fundraising . There was one
change to the Corporate category. The rule has been that once you have won an
award in a category, you cannot win again in that category. After some feedback
from some corporations, the Executive Committee has changed the policy to
allow Corporations to win again as long as they haven' t won in the last 5 years.
C.

Financial Report- Garry Gross shared the financial statement for FY13 first
quarter. The MCSC is waiting to see how VGF funding will be and whether there
will be disability and PDAT funding. Fortunately we have some carry over of our
federal funds from past years which will help carry us through this year.

D.

CNCS/National Service Update
1. Funding Update- Ms. VanDam explained that we are still operating under a
Continuing Resolution (CR). If there is a CR for the rest of the fiscal year, this
could hurt the MCSC because last year state commissions took a cut in terms of
the overall appropriation for state commission admin. Then if the sequestering
hits, it would be an additional 7-8% cut for commissions. The MCSC has some
unspent carry over federal dollars due to some of the staff transitions last year so
should be fine this year.
2. CNCS Update- Cathy Sharp shared the CNCS Michigan profile with
Commissioners. There are more than 7,700 Senior Corps members and 1,800
AmeriCorps members in Michigan this year. The profile highlights where the
members serve. The CNCS is also working on a city profile.
AmeriCorps*VISTA issues an annual NOF A process. The CNCS State office
will not be issuing a request for concept paper this year because they are at
their resource maximum. There will be a VISTA PSO training (pre-service
orientation) in Detroit in February for approximately 40 VISTA members.
There will be approximately 70 summer associates which is a short term
VISTA program (8-1 0 weeks). Cathy explained the CNCS has a new
initiative, Mayors Day of Recognition, where Mayors will sign on to commit
to acknowledging a National Day of Service in their city on April 9th. It can
be a proclamation or an event. The Michigan City of Service Mayors have all
signed on (Detroit, Flint, Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Muskegon). The
Michigan Association of Mayors are meeting on April 9th so are hoping they
will cori:rmit to doing something on that day .

Partner Update- Diana Algra shared that Kyle Caldwell, former CEO of the
Michigan Nonprofit Association, has moved on to the C.S. Mott Foundation.
Kelley Kuhn will be the acting CEO until a replacement has been identified.

New Business
A.
Mission Statement- Chair Bloodworth explained that the MCSC would like to
update the mission statement. Draft MCSC Mission Statements were shared and
Commissioners were asked for their feedback. Ms. VanDam shared that we wanted
to Commissioners to have a discussion about the mission statement and to have a
statement that is more in line with where we are today and the direction we are
heading, including using the service as a strategy language because that is important.
A subcommittee was set up with Commissioners Miles Wiles and David Price
offering to serve on the committee.
B.

VI.

Blue Cross Blue Shield - Commissioner Bob Kolt offered up an additional item on
the agenda. He served as the Chair of AARP and the restructuring of Blue Cross
Blue Shield was a major issue for them. Part of the restructuring included discussion
around the nonprofit assets that they had. The idea was that a trust fund could be
created (similar to the Natural Resource Trust Fund) in which money would be
allocated to support seniors and youth (50% for senior support programs and 50%
for youth initiatives). The Governor ended up vetoing the legislation. Bob feels
that because the of the MCSC leadership role and the intention to focus on the big
fix, that the MCSC should be part of the conversation around these public assets.
Commissioner Collier explained that CMF has been involved in protecting the
charitable assets. The focus is on creating a health endowment fund through the
Health and Wellness Foundation. The MCSC could focus on the health aspect of
volunteering when the Health Committee meets.
Public Comment - Commissioner Collier suggested that we get Michigan Reading
Corps on the agenda at the Governor's Education Summit and also have ArneriCorps
involved in education attend and talk about the value of AmeriCorps.
Ms. VanDam shared that Jocelyn Yanda, the DHS representative that has been attending
the MCSC Board meetings, retired in December.

2013 AmeriCorps Week: AmeriCorps Works!
The 2013 AmeriCorps Week, which took place March 12-19, was a
tremendous success with hundreds of individuals participating in several
events throughout the state. AmeriCorps Week is a national recruitment and
recognition event designed to bring more Americans into service, salute
AmeriCorps members and alums for their powerful impact, and thank the
community partners who make AmeriCorps possible. To add to the
excitement to the week, Governor Snyder issued an official proclamation declaring it AmeriCorps Week in
Michigan. A variety of activities took place throughout the week, including the second annual Michigan' s
AmeriCorps Week Twitter Chat and multiple service projects and outreach events.
School Turnaround AmeriCorps Initiative
In late February, the MCSC received notification from the Corporation for National and Community Service
(CNCS) that $5 million was being made available to organizations wishing to host an AmeriCorps program as
part of CNCS ' s new School Turnaround initiative. The School Turnaround AmeriCorps initiative is a
collaborative effort by CNCS and the U.S. Department of Education to increase educational achievement, high
school graduation rates, and college readiness for students in our nation's lowest-performing elementary,
middle, and high schools. The MCSC received two grant applications, which are still being reviewed. The
funding recommendation will be presented at the April board meeting.
Michigan Reading Corps Update
After receiving the support of the full board at the January board meeting, plans for the Michigan Reading
Corps (MiRC) are progressing quickly. Selection of school sites and AmeriCorps member recruitment is
underway for the 2013-14 school year. A proposal for match funding has been submitted to the Michigan
Department of Education. Another proposal will be submitted to the Kellogg Foundation.
AmeriCorps 2013-2014 Funding Application Process
Competitive applications are currently under review by the Corporation for National and Community
Service. The AmeriCorps application review process includes a clarification period that will take place from
May 6-22. We expect funding decisions to be announced in early June 2013 and grants to be awarded shortly
thereafter. Once the competitive process has been completed, the MCSC will make decisions about formula
funding.
AmeriCorps Program Site Visits
Program officers are currently conducting program monitoring site visits with all 23 AmeriCorps programs. A
typical site visit consists of 1-2 days of interviews with the program director, members, site supervisors, and
executive directors/administrators, as well as observation of program activities and review of member files .
These visits are followed by comprehensive written feedback.
Michigan's AmeriCorps Inclusion Photo and Video Contest
The Michigan's AmeriCorps Inclusion Photo &amp; Video contest was created to encourage AmeriCorps members
and/or AmeriCorps program sites to capture a photo and/or produce a video to document and display how
Michigan's AmeriCorps programs promote, embrace, and incorporate the MCSC mission of inclusion within
their respective service areas. All photos and videos will be judged by members of the MCSC Statewide
Inclusion Team. The winner ofthe photo contest will receive an AmeriCorps Prize Pack and the winner of the

�•
video contest will receive a $100 Meijer gift card. Winners will be announced during this year's Russ Mawby
Signature Service Project on May 16, 2013 . Other submissions will be highlighted through the MCSC website .
SAVE-THE-DATE: 2013 Russ Maw by Signature Service Project
On Thursday, May 16 and Friday, May 17 more than 350 Michigan' s AmeriCorps members from across the
state will come together in Lansing for the annual Russ Mawby Signature Service Project. AmeriCorps
members will assist with various community projects to make a significant impact on multiple Lansing
communities. This year' s project is a partnership with the MCSC, Habitat for Humanity, Power of We
Consortium (representing multiple local organizations), Lansing School District, and Thinkbox Creative.

                    <text>On May 16-17, 2013, more than 350 Michigan 's AmeriCorps
members from across the state will come together in Lansing for the
annual Russ Mawby Signature Service Project. AmeriCorps members
wi ll assist with various community projects and work with several
organizations to make a significant impact on multiple Lansing
communities.
Each year, the Russ Mawby Signature
Service Project brings hundreds of
AmeriCorps members to one Michigan
community for tw o days of intensive service. By the end of the
second day, several projects are completed , visibly demonstrating
the power of Michigan's AmeriCorps members in action . The 201 3
project is a partnership with the Michigan
Community Service Commission, the Power
of We Consortium , the Lansing School
District, Habitat for Humanity of Michigan ,
Thinkbox Creative, and other local nonprofit
organizations.
AmeriCorps members will work with local nonprofit organizations to assist
with the followi ng projects: preparing community gardens for a busy
growing season (planting , building raised garden beds, creating
accessible paths, etc.); removing invasive species and building/clearing
community trails; beautification of the grounds and
facilities at three Lansing School District buildings;
home improvement/ landscaping projects in
partnership with Habitat for Humanity; and assisting
with other community projects, such as painting
murals, building benches, and planting trees .

The Michigan Community Service Commission builds a
culture of service by providing vision and resources to
strengthen communities through volunteerism.
Michigan 's AmeriCorps is similar to a dom estic Peace
Corps. AmeriCorps programs are housed within
nonprofit organizations, schools, and other agencies
throughout the state. Individuals, called members, tutor
and mentor children, help the homeless, improve health
care, protect the environment, and more. In 201 2-13,
Michigan 's AmeriCorps members will provide more
than 1. 3 million hours of service and recruit
approximately 20, 000 volunteers.

                    <text>Quality Mentoring System
As we announced last summer, Mentor Michigan has been selected to participate in the Phase One pilot of the
Quality Mentoring System. The Quality Mentoring System provides mentoring programs with intensive
support and technical assistance to improve their program, provide higher-quality services, and serve more
mentors and youth.
MENTOR and state mentoring partnerships believe that, in the face of uneven practice, we should be
collectively dedicated to this work. Since research and experience dictate that quality practices drive quality
outcomes for youth, the Quality Mentoring System can improve the quality and quantity of mentoring
opportunities for young people. MENTOR and state partnerships have seen tremendous interest in this effort
from funders and providers alike.
Massachusetts and Minnesota have fully vetted, planned, and implemented local systems for Quality-Based
Mentoring. To move the field to a unified approach on this issue, MENTOR is now playing a coordinating role
among the other state programs. Through the Phase One pilot, six mentoring partnerships (Connecticut;
Michigan; Nebraska; Oregon; Virginia; and Washington) have been selected to utilize the Quality Mentoring
Assessment Path (QMAP) developed by the Mentoring Partnership of Minnesota or the Quality-Based
Membership (QBM) tool utilized by Mass Mentoring Partnership. Participation has been evenly divided
between the two systems. The goal of the pilot is to have the first wave of mentoring partnerships implement the
selected system, offer assessments and fundamentally incorporate this into their work to help inform a national
model. Integration of research and evaluation into this project will ensure that mentoring partnerships have
evidence-based indicators of success in processes and outcomes.
After months of planning and coordination at the national level, work in Michigan and the other five pilot states
listed above is now underway. We are currently collecting baseline information on our pilot programs for the
evaluation process and will soon begin the assessment process.
Michigan Pilot Programs will include Bethany Christian Services, VIP Mentoring, and MSU Extension Tech
Wizards. Mentor Michigan will complete the QBM process with the three pilot programs this summer. Once
the pilot process is complete, we will begin the open up the process to other mentoring programs. Through the
pilot process we will learn how quickly we can move other programs through the process.
Regional Meetings
In the fall of 2013 , Mentor Michigan will host a series of four or five one-day regional meetings around the
state. These meetings will be modeled after regional meetings that Mentor Michigan held in 2005 . The
morning will portion ofthe meetings will provide an overview of the Quality Mentoring System and other
updates for the mentoring field. In the afternoon, each regional meeting will host professional development
sessions based on the needs of the region. The Providers Council will be leading the planning efforts for these
meetings. These regional meetings will take the place of the annual statewide mentoring conference. The next
statewide mentoring conference will be held in the fall of 20 14 and we will be moving to hosting the conference
on an every-other-year basis. We also plan to continue to host the regional meetings on the off years ofthe
statewide conference.

�Mentor Michigan- DNR Mini-Grant Update
The Michigan Department ofNatural Resources (DNR), Fisheries Division, held an employee silent auction in
December 2012 with the proceeds benefitting Mentor Michigan. The group raised $3 ,340 which Mentor
Michigan offered to mentoring programs across the state in the form of mini -grants. After running a month-long
application process, Mentor Michigan received 27 mini-grant applications and selected 14 for funding. The
funds will be used to support a variety of fishing related-activities and expenses incurred by mentoring
programs and their matches.
