Present on the call were Commissioners Benson, Comer, Pardoe, Swain, O'Day, and Pickard. Staff members present on the call were Kyle Caldwell and Mary Grill. Welcome to New Outreach Committee Members The Outreach Committee is pleased to have as new members Commissioner Comer, Commissioner Pellegrino, and Commissioner Young-Welch. Governor's Service Awards GSA Sponsors. Kyle Caldwell thanked Commissioner Comer for his leadership in securing the Lear Corporation sponsorship of the Outstanding Mentor Award. Lear has made a three year commitment to sponsor the Outstanding Mentor Award and Commissioner Comer recommended that we ask all of our potential sponsors for a three year commitment. All Outreach Committee members agreed. Caldwell also thanked Commissioner Pickard once again for leading the GSA sponsorship efforts and for securing the General Motor Corporation's lead gift to sponsor the George W. Romney Lifetime Acheivement Award. With the gifts from GM and Lear, we are one-third of the way to our goal! The committee members reviewed the list of Governor's Service Awards potential sponsors and identified the prospects to whom they would make follow up calls. The initial request for sponsorship letter will be sent from First Gentleman Mulhern and Kyle Caldwell and Commissioners will make follow up phone calls. They also discussed additional prospects that �could be added to the list of potential sponsors. A discussion around the geographic diversity of the potential sponsors list ensued. Because the event is being held in Grand Rapids this year and the number of prospects from the west side of the state were less than hoped, it was decided that Kyle Caldwell and MaryGrill consult with Commissioner Collier to discuss additional prospects. Once the list is finalized it will be approved by the Governor's Office. At the December Commission meeting, Commissioner Bunn and Commissioner Makki expressed interest in being involved with the GSA sponsorship efforts. Caldwell and Grill will follow up with them. The importance of keeping the committee informed on progress once the initial solicitation letters goes out was discussed. It was decided that Mary Grill would update the committee weekly throughout the fundraising process and daily if new information comes in. GSA Media. The need for increased GSA media was discussed. Commissioner Pickard recommended that we look into a media partner. The event emcee will be Suzanne Geha at WOOD TV8, which is an NBC affiliate, so that may be the ideal partnership. Additional discussion with key leadership in Grand Rapids and with Commissioner Young-Welch will be sought in order to create a media strategy. GSA Event Overview.

She stated that there were two sponsors for the Governor Service Awards (GSA), General Motors and Lear Corporation, in the amount $10,000 each and that the committee is actively soliciting others. The goal this year is $60,000. As a means to generate additional dollars for the GSA, the committee has developed a corporate solicitation package where the corporations are offered special opportunities this year that have not been offered before. The sponsors will be able to stand on the stage with the Governor and First Gentleman and present the awards. In addition, the $10,000 supporters will also have the opportunity to have one representative seated at the table with the Governor and First Gentleman. Also one of the awards will be presented on behalf of the corporation. Letters have been sent out to solicit additional 2 �sponsors. She also requested, on behalf of the Outreach Committee, that each Commissioner, if possible, sponsor a table for $1000 or to fmd someone to sponsor a table. It was suggested that the Commissioner could team up with someone to sponsor a table. A media campaign is also being developed to promote the GSA. Chairperson Mulhern thanked Commissioner Comer for Lear Corporation's support of Governor's Service Awards and also the ConnectMichigan Alliance Endowment Campaign. He also thanked Commissioner Pickard for GM's support for GSA. Commissioner Comer mentioned that it would be helpful to help fill tables of those sponsors that aren't able to make it to the GSA ceremony. Commissioner Kwak suggested donating those tables to some of the award finalists and their organizations. Commissioner Pickard stated that the sponsorship packets will be given out to the Commissioners. Commissioner Parker asked if there was going to be a mento ring award. Commissioner Pickard stated that the mentoring award will be sponsored by Lear and Mentor Michigan will be highlighted. Chairperson Mulhern mentioned that it was discussed at the last meeting whether to roll Mentor Michigan fundraising into GSA fundraising but it was agreed to split them. Commissioner Bunn stated that there are some organizations that she knows that would be interested in the mentoring piece and asked if there was a way to designate whatever is left over from their GSA contribution to use towards mentoring activities. Chairperson Mulhern answered that they could. C. Report of ConnectMichigan Alliance- John Lore Dr. Lore shared an overview of new initiatives. They just fmished the Michigan Campus Compact Institute. Brian O'Connell was a speaker at the Institute. The Michigan Civics Summit will begin on Tuesday, February 12, and will hold a conference in December. They are also working on a Mentor Michigan VISTA program along with the Volunteer Centers. He announced that his assistant, Kate Powers, would be leaving on February 17. He thanked Commissioner Comer for Lear's $20,000 contribution, and shared that he was in constant contact with Mr. Comer because he didn't want Lear to commit to more than was needed so that they could also sponsor GSA. The final amount raised was $10,051,000 due to last minute gifts from several organizations. He thanked Commissioners Pickard and K wak for their help in accomplishing the goal. 3 �IV. Executive Director's Report- Kyle Caldwell A. MCSC 2004 Goals Mr. Caldwell reviewed the annual goals that were established after the 2003 Commissioner Retreat. A memo from Kyle Caldwell dated February 9, 2004, was handed out to the Commissioners outlining the progress on the goals. The big goal was to integrate Mentor Michigan into MCSC programming by examining the role of national service programs, utilizing and focusing staff on developing Mentor Michigan and aligning our programs to highlight mentoring. With regard to examining the role of national service, AmeriCorps priorities have been realigned to stress mentoring (5 out of 19 programs) and the MCSC has brokered a partnership with CNCS Michigan and CMA for an AmeriCorps*VISTA program which will set forth an infrastructure for mentoring. Mr. Caldwell commented on the great relationship that MCSC has with CNCS Michigan which is not always the case in other states. Mr. Caldwell also stated that focusing staff on the issue is critical. Paula Kaiser, Mary Grill, Joan Bowman and Mary Zatina have done a tremendous job to advance Mentor Michigan. But they all have "day jobs" so it will be critical to look at how Mentor Michigan is staffed more permanently and will be addressed in the plan that will be put forth when soliciting support. Looking at the other MCSC programs and highlighting mento ring, the Governor's Service Awards has a mentoring category, as well as mentoring activity has been added to the Volunteer Investment Grants program. The MCSC needs to look at Learn and Serve and Citizen Corps to see how to integrate Mentor Michigan into those programs. The funding and application for Learn and Serve had already taken place so mentoring was not yet a priority, but the MCSC will be looking at that stream in the future. Mentoring programs will also be pushed for Citizen Corps. Mentor Michigan: The big goal is 10,000 mentors. The MCSC is beginning to formulate a plan to reach the goal for this year which is 2,000 mentors. Other goals are to begin to assess the needs of communities, develop an awareness campaign, gather practioners to advise, and gamer resources to support the efforts. The progress to date in terms of developing a long-range plan includes a planning meeting ofMCSC and First Gentleman's staff, feedbacks from the summits, VISTA project, and Mentor Partnership. As far as assessing the needs of the communities, over 1,000 people attended the six summits last fall where they articulated the 5 top priority areas out of the 10 that will be focused on. A study was conducted for interests and information by the web. That information was analyzed by Kale Research Solutions and found that there are currently over 17,000 mentor matches, most ages 5-18 years old, and over 2,600 are on waiting lists. An awareness campaign was developed which included Mentor Month activities. The MCSC is working to gamer practioners to advise on the plan development process. The Mentor Michigan listserve has been unveiled. The ground work has been laid in gaining support for resources. There was a meeting 4 �with the Hudson Webber Foundation and an upcoming meeting with W.K. Kellogg Foundation to talk about how to make the approaches to philanthropic communities. The feedback from foundations on the comprehensive resource development plan has helped the MCSC put together what should be looked at to make the best approach. This should be done by the time the MCSC meets in the spring. The next steps include putting the plan together, establishing a staffing plan, garnering funding, developing networks, and putting together research and evaluation tools to keep the 10,000 tally fresh and current. Michigan's AmeriCorps: There were five goals that included securing increased levels of funding, encouraging new grantees towards mentor, getting the numbers back up, maintaining program support and broadening the exposure of our efforts. As far as increased levels of funding, the MCSC was able to secure $200 million for AmeriCorps for the upcoming program year. The MCSC also aligned existing grantees towards mentoring by giving it a priority, increased the number of programs by 25%, received a $3 million allocation for formula funds, and increased funding for programs by 43% from 2003 levels. But there is still work to do because the current increase is still 21% lower than 2002. There were some staffing changes in AmeriCorps by replacing a program officer vacancy with Andy Younger, which allowed the program officer/program ratio to remain the same, and have continued the events and trainings that were scheduled. The MCSC is still in process of putting together high impact site visits to the field that help the Commission, field and organization. Next steps include continuing to focus on national issues, focusing on competitive funding and examining quality issues. As the MCSC Chair mentioned, Michigan has an excellent plan, in fact it's the model for the nation, for how to do oversight, how to do the mechanics of a great AmeriCorps program and how to support them. What is not known is the answer to the question: What does the best AmeriCorps program in the nation look like, how does it work, what does it focus on, and what does it use to sustain itself? So one of the charges that Chairperson Mulhern has made is to talk to the field and figure this question out because the answer to this will be important, especially as money becomes tight. Citizen Corps: The four goals include tripling the number of councils, working with existing and new councils to expand their programs, establishing CERT academy, and quadrupling the number of CERT trainers. The MCSC/Michigan Citizen Corps started out with 13 councils, with a goal of 39, and are now at 23 to date, which is a 77% growth rate for the year. The MCSC is working with the Medical Reserve Corps, the VIPS program, Neighborhood Watch and Michigan's Surgeon General to focus on how to get the medical community involved. There have been two CERT training academies so 5 �far. Michigan has the nation's only tribal CERT Train-the-Trainer program and is seeking partnerships with community colleges. There are over 100 CERT trainers, but the goal is to have 200 by the end of the year. Next steps include increasing the number of councils, formalizing the CERT training and getting it into institutions. The Governor has given us the charge to train 15,000 citizens by the end ofthe year. Volunteer Investment Grants: There are four goals which include aligning towards mentoring, re-acquiring funds for grant making, developing partnerships with corporate and philanthropic communities and establishing a data collection and research system. With regards to aligning the grant making around mentoring, it is accomplished as it was made a priority this year and is receiving great response. But when you look at the other goals, you have to look at where the Governor's budget will fall and then gage the Legislature's response. The MCSC will continue to work with current grantees to focus on those partnerships. Learn and Serve: There were six goals that include broadening the leadership and dialogue, securing increased levels of funding, developing innovated partnerships, securing and disseminating research, developing a resource library, and developing a recognition program. Representative Hart approached the MCSC to help host hearings on servicelearning and the hearings went very smoothly. The MCSC is seeking a grant for Learn and Serve Homeland Security funding that focuses on kids. As far as innovative partnerships, the MCSC is seeking alignment with Governor Granholm's MERIT Award service requirement and also convening and supporting Service Learning Youth Council (SLYC). In regards to securing and disseminating research on efficacy, RMC Research fmdings on service learning and MEAP will be received in March. As far as we know, no one in the country is doing this kind of research so even if findings are not significant, it is ground breaking just in the fact that Michigan has done it. The resource library is always in process and will continue to grow. A recognition program took place in partnership with the Michigan Campus Compact at the Dorothy Johnson Center for Philanthropy Reception and Annual Awards Ceremony. Next steps are to determine action plan for Homeland Security partnership and to expand the leadership partners to include education associations. Governor Services Awards: The goals include increasing the number of nominations, hosting a statewide recognition event with the Governor and First Gentleman, defraying costs with private sector support, securing media partners and broadening support for GSA. 6 �The deadline for nominations has been extended to February 27. Commissioner Pickard asked whether nomination forms had been sent out to the ConnectMichigan partners and Mr. Caldwell replied that they had. Commissioner Pickard also asked whether it was too late to recognize mentoring on a higher level and also try to get more entities involved. Is there a possibility to have four awards under the mentoring category that would include individual mentoring award, nonprofit mentoring award, corporate mentoring award, and organization mento ring award. Therefore you would highlight more of the recognition that we are trying to make a difference with mentoring. Commissioner Comer mentioned that Lear Corporation committed to three-year sponsorship and to challenge the other corporations to do the same. That would create a corporate rivalry of who could do more in the mentoring sector. Mr. Caldwell replied that the MCSC will look at what's feasible for adding to this year's mento ring category and expand next year's mento ring category. It may also be folded into fundraiser for GSA and Mentor Michigan. Back to GSA goals, Mr. Caldwell stated that this will be the first recognition program with the Governor and First Gentleman and will be held during the Michigan Volunteerism SuperConference. He discussed that there is currently $20,000 raised for GSA and will continue working towards the goal of$60,000. As far as broadening support for GSA, Suzanne Geha, anchor from WOOD TV 8 in Grand Rapids, will be emceeing the GSA event. She is also a very close friend to Diana Sieger, Executive Director of the Grand Rapids Community Foundation, and they have both said they would discuss helping MCSC expand the event and make linkages to both the media and philanthropic community. The next steps include continuing to solicit applications, aggressively pursue sponsorships, focus on the GSA program and continue to have dialogue with philanthropic organizations. Also, the new goal of expanding the mentoring category. B. Special Guest- Representative Doug Hart Chairperson Mulhern introduced Representative Doug Hart. Representative Hart commented on the hearings the House Subcommittee on Service-Learning and Civic Education held last fall. Service-Learning is about making education relevant and the most powerful way to build civic society. It engenders commitments to one's community through developing habits of giving. Everyone is a winner with service-learning. Representative Brian Palmer inaugurated this committee and asked that they gather information. They wanted to use the committee to educate legislators. There were several hearings throughout the state and there were quite a range of individuals that testified. He mentioned that there may be a blue-ribbon panel established to move the conversation forward. He also supports the Governors State of the State proposal to create a service 7 �requirement in the MEAP scholarship. Another area to be considered is creating a panel that looks into issues specific to the Governor's recommendations (i.e., how do you prepare communities and teachers, what sorts of organizations should take the lead in this type of effort). He feels that the subcommittee accomplished what they wanted to accomplish but couldn't have done it without the help of the MCSC. He also stated that he feels that the "white paper" that the MCSC has developed will be helpful to legislators in Michigan but also to policy makers across the country. What the MCSC has created is a model of gathering information and making sense out of the various service-learning policy areas. A document was handed out that outlined the subcommittee's recommendations. Commissioner Watkins commended Representative Hart on his efforts regarding education and service-learning. He also stated that the MERIT portion of the recommendations and 40 hours of community service are very important. It will be taken up under the MERIT awards and it will be very valuable to the work that the subcommittee did and perhaps reflection from this group to take recommendations to the MERIT board. Also, Mr. Watkins asked how do we do this so we can engage young people without creating another bureaucratic process to document and take up a lot of time that the teachers and administrators don't have? There is a lot ofknowledge in this room and the work that the subcommittee did may be able to help set guidelines. Commissioner Parker stated his concern that as the subcommittee continues, that they recognize that the MCSC can help with the direction. Chairperson Mulhern asked Representative Hart if there was one thing that stood out from the hearings. Representative Hart said he was struck by the passion of those that presented and testified at the hearings and that it is the heart of servicelearning. Mr. Caldwell went through the seven recommendations from the hearings: include social studies in the MERIT award; utilize existing resources and partnerships; support public education; provide states with more resources; invest in sound, rigorous research; support teachers' professional development; and support meaningful decision making roles for youth. Commissioner Kwak shared that the W.K. Kellogg Foundation funds servicelearning on a national level and feels that the actions that the subcommittee has taken will provide a model for other states. C. MCSC Budget- Kyle Caldwell Mr. Caldwell went over the budget that was passed out to Commissioners. He also announced that the Federal CNCS audit is finally closed out was a "clean" audit. 8 �D. V. Michigan Citizen Corps- Kyle Caldwell Mr. Caldwell gave an update on Michigan Citizen Corps and explained the grant applications that have been received. By the end of the year there should be $1.3 million in funding that the MCSC will be managing. Mentor Michigan- Chairperson Mulhern A. Chairperson Mulhern shared some of the results of the survey that was conducted on mento ring by Kale Research Solutions, Inc. He pointed out one of the facts that states that 99% of individuals who mentor through formal mentoring programs recommend it to others. He discussed his thoughts on how to have a message that will stick in peoples minds about mentoring and shared a quote from a gentleman that sent an email: "Mentor Michigan can change two lives at a time." He also gave an overview of activities from National Mentoring Month including public service announcements, billboards, print ads, a tool kit on the Mentor Michigan web site and Mentor Michigan Sundays B. Next Steps- Paula Kaiser explained the ConnectMichigan Alliance VISTA program that will focus on Mentor Michigan. There will be 25 members that will be placed in teams of 3-5 around the state. They will be working on local infrastructure issues that were identified from the summits. The five areas they will focus on will be: identifying and securing resources to support and sustain mentoring; helping to recruit mentors-each VISTA will be responsible for recruiting 100 mentors so by the end of the year there will be 2500 mentors recruited just through the VISTA program; balancing and enhancing partnerships with business, faith-based organizations, nonprofits, education institutions, and government; increasing public awareness; and providing training and support for local mentoring programs. The VISTAs won't be placed in any one organization to benefit that organization, but to help benefit mentoring across the entire community. This should develop local mentoring collaborative and talk about how the organizations will share these 3-5 individuals to address the five areas. The program should be able to fund 6-7 communities depending on how many members are placed in each community. They should be able to develop some infrastructure for mentoring in those communities. In addition, quarterly extensive training will be provided to the 25 VISTA members so that they can take that back to their community. The members should be in place by late July. Mary Pfeiler pointed out that the program will focus on communities and children most in need. They will strongly encourage each collaborative to address the needs of the schools that are not meeting adequate yearly progress. Areas of focus are Saginaw, Flint, Detroit, Lansing, Benton Harbor but it is also open to collaboratives from around the state. Commissioners Young-Welch, Pickard, Comer and Smith shared the mentoring initiatives they/their organizations are doing. Commissioner Swain shared information on a 5-day mentoring/leadership conference for those with disabilities that will take place in June. 9 �VI. New business- Chairperson Dan Mulhern A. VII. Visit by David Eisner, CEO of CNCS Mr. Caldwell stated that David Eisner will be speaking at the MCSC Board Meeting on May 24th and at the Volunteer SuperConference on May 25th. He will also be doing site visits, attending the Governor Service Awards and meeting with foundations, nonprofits and Commissioners. Public Comment- Chairperson Dan Mulhern Commissioner Pardoe thanked the MCSC staff for their help during the Service-Learning Conference. Chairperson Mulhern reminded Commissioners of the $1,000 sponsorships for GSA and to get involved with Mentor Michigan. VIII. Adjourn- Chairperson Mulhern Chairperson Mulhern asked for a motion to adjourn. Commissioner Newport moved to adjourn the meeting. Commissioner O'Day seconded the motion. The meeting was adjourned at 2:50pm. 10 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Welcome and Introduction - Chairperson Mulhern Commissioner Mike Makki welcomed everyone to ACCESS and gave a brief overview of the facility. He then introduced Ismael Ahmed, Executive Director, ACCESS, who welcomed everyone and introduced several ACCESS department heads and explained what their roles are. He described their AmeriCorps*VISTA program. ACCESS is 33 years old and started as a small storefront to help neighborhood citizens. This year ACCESS will open case records on 50,000 people in 70 programs and serve 500,000 contacts with people that don't open case records but need programs in cultural, food and shelter. ACCESS works with other communities across the city and state and has also began to work with programs nationally. AmeriCorps*VISTA has been a part of ACCESS for the past 12 years, developing new programs, helping projects that ACCESS couldn't afford to get done in the neighborhood, particularly with young people, and helping to educate new immigrants. Mr. Ahmed introduced Karen Rignall and she explained how ACCESS is working with communities around the country to get ArabAmericans involved in building their communities. The AmeriCorps*VISTA program is giving a jumpstart to efforts in organizing Arab-American communities to make sure they have access to services they need including social services, after-school services and parenting classes. The meeting was called to order at 12:15 p.m. by Chairperson Mulhern. Chairperson Mulhern welcomed everyone to the meeting and asked the Commissioners to introduce themselves and to share how long they've been with the Commission. II. Review and Approval of September 11-12, 2003 Minutes - Chairperson Mulhern Chairperson Mulhern asked for a motion to approve the minutes from the September 11-12, 2003 board meeting. Commissioner Mawby moved to approve the minutes, Commissioner Pickard seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously. 2 �III. Review ofMCSC Mission and Goals- Chairperson Mulhern and Kyle Caldwell A. Review Goals and Draft Mission Statement - Chairperson Mulhern Chairperson Mulhern discussed the new proposed vision statement. There was a great deal of discussion about this at the retreat and great conversations that pointed out a reciprocal nature and how to build a culture where people serve and are served in the process and stimulate other people to service and volunteerism and that they feel it is fulfilling for themselves. The proposed vision statement is a reflection of that and a melding of prophetic and visionary role and a practice notion of what we do. The proposed vision statement reads: "Building a culture of service by providing vision and resources to strengthen communities through volunteerism." Chairperson Mulhern felt it was a happy blend but is open to conversation about the statement. He asked for any questions or comments. With no questions, Chairperson Mulhern asked for a motion to accept the new vision statement. Commissioner O'Day moved to approve the new vision statement, Commissioner Seese supported. The motion passed unanimously. B. Overview ofMCSC Scope of Work - Kyle Caldwell Chairperson Mulhern asked Kyle Caldwell to outline the goals for the upcoming year. Kyle explained that the idea of going through goal-setting with what the MCSC has gone through in the past year is almost crazy but found it was a good exercise because it taught us the value of what we are doing. Mr. Caldwell gave a powerpoint presentation with an overview of the organization in the last 18 months, where we are budget wise, and where we're going. The MCSC organization consists of four elements working all at once. The bulk of what the MCSC does in both scale and time is a grantmaking organization. We deliver grants but also help with evaluation, getting quality programs, dealing with monitoring and oversight, but also how to grow and build capacity of those programs that receive funds. The next layer is we convene innovative volunteer programs and efforts to finding opportunities. These Mentor Michigan summits are an example of how to convene people to talk out the issues for the non-profit sector. What do they need around volunteers and how the MCSC can help through grantmaking, other activities, and leadership to really make things happen. The third level is the MCSC recognizes those things that are exemplary service both on the individual and organization basis with the Governor's Service Awards and Mentoring Summits. The pinnacle the MCSC is trying to build towards is encouraging people to volunteer. All of the other things help support that. Mr. Caldwell explained that the MCSC is a state government organization that promotes and supports a variety of different volunteer efforts. It is govern by a Governor appointed board and administers state and federal funds with the bulk being federal funding. It also is a provider of statewide recognition of exemplary volunteers. 3 �When you look at the MCSC programs, it breaks out into some basic areas. AmeriCorps deals with human needs, education, public safety, and environment all in the context of an AmeriCorps program working in a team at a grassroots level. The AmeriCorps members receive a stipend and education award for their term of service. Citizen Corps, which is one of the newer federal programs to MCSC, focuses on homeland security, citizen preparedness, and community organizing at the grassroots level. Learn & Serve - working with young people (K-12) to encourage the idea of service to communities but also using it as a way of doing hands-on learning with kids. This program is administered with the Department of Education. It involves more than 33,000 students annually. Volunteer Investment Grants is an endowment building program for volunteer resource centers across the state that has leveraged almost $6 million in endowments for volunteer centers so that they can continue their work. It's one of a kind in the nation, no other state is doing this. It is focusing on the longterm capacity of volunteer resource organizations. Mentor Michigan is the newest program and Paula Kaiser will talk more about this later. This is one of the MCSC's biggest priorities given the interest of the Governor, First Gentleman, and all ofthe Commissioners. The goal is building capacity to help and encourage individuals to mentor and focuses on the mentoring nonprofit organizations. The Governor's Service Awards (GSA) is an annual recognition program. This year the GSA dinner will be in conjunction with the MCSC board meeting on May 24. It is awarded to volunteers for their exemplary service and this year is coupling with the Volunteerism SuperConference. When you look at MCSC programs by percentage, 94% of funds are federal. The largest single program is AmeriCorps with 51% of programming funding, 28% goes to Citizen Corps because that is a new and growing pool of funds, 15% for Learn and Serve, only 6% is state funding and that's for the Volunteer Investment Grants (that is more than several other states throughout the country) and Mentor Michigan hasn't been determined yet. When you look at the profile of the budget, it's weighted pretty heavily towards the federal initiatives. Mr. Caldwell went through the difference in the program funding between 2002 and 2003: AmeriCorps went from $6.2 million to $2.2 million; Citizen Corps went from $444,785 to $1.3 million; Learn & Serve $879,770 to $700,000; VIG started out at $780,000 and went down to $280,000 this year. The MCSC is still doing an immense amount of work and staff are to be heralded for the work that 4 �they're doing with shrinking resources. It is getting to places that it's not been before and doing some great things across the state so there's a lot to be proud of. Impact numbers: In 2002 AmeriCorps had 696 members with 24 programs and there will be 300 members this year with the number oflocations yet to be determined. Citizen Corps will be in 18 communities compared to six last year. The outlook for next year will be the ground breaking for Mentor Michigan. It's very exciting to see the work from the summits and the people were very excited about mentoring. There will be some restoration of AmeriCorps funding as $100 million was restored back into the budget for 2004. Hopefully the MCSC will see about a 25% increase in what we're able to do for next year for AmeriCorps. There is increased interest in Service-Learning and in February Representative Doug Hart will speak about the hearings that Diana Algra and the ServiceLearning team helped to facilitate over the course of the fall. There will be increased resources for Citizen Corps. It's going to be a growing part of the MCSC portfolio for a couple of years which is the federal trend. There will be continued budgetary restraints. The state economy is going to be slow in corning around. There will be increased pressure in workload because the workforce is not going to grow even though the MCSC programming and the kind of work we do is going to expand. Mr. Caldwell then discussed the goals for 03-04. The major goal for the organization this year is to get Mentor Michigan integrated into the Commission and it's programming. It's not a difficult challenge but for the first time we will take all of our program areas and focus on a type ofvolunteerism and that is a shift for the organization. This gives us the opportunity to do programming a little deeper in an area. Again, the MCSC has been general volunteerism for over a decade and now will be focusing down a little bit on one type ofvolunteerism. We need to examine the role of national service, we need to focus the staff on developing Mentor Michigan, and we're going to have to align our programs, including Governor's Service Awards. The MCSC will develop a long-range plan based on the Governor's goal of 10,000 mentors; determine an overall goal based on what we want to do this year specifically and then 4-15 years out; access the needs of communities as was done with the six mentoring summits and focus on the five areas to work on; develop an awareness campaign (January is National Mentoring Month); gather practioners to advise our work; and gamer resources to support those efforts. Mr. Caldwell explained the goals for AmeriCorps. Two years ago the biggest concern was ifthe President doubles or triples the size of AmeriCorps will there be the ground capacity to administer that and the ability to handle that scope of demand. Those were the plans that year. Then came the train wreck of the trust. All of our goals were expansion and we had the reality of contraction that we weren't ready for. So mid-summer the Senior Staff outlined the new goals: get this national thing fixed, get the federal funding restored, get this mess off the 5 �radar, and get back to the goals of our agenda. We've seen that. There' s a new CEO at CNCS, $100 million more in the FY04 budget for AmeriCorps specifically, the goal of training in FY05 budget will have a larger increase for AmeriCorps and other things, the national area is focused on the communitiesnot the administration. The communities are saying this needs to get fixed and this is how we want it fixed because of a grassroots community movement that we started. The Corporation is now listening to the field and that is a fundamental shift in this program. Mr. Caldwell outlined the goals for AmeriCorps: • Continue to increase the level of funding for AmeriCorps and continue the advocacy work at the state and federal level. • Align and encourage existing grantees toward mentoring - we put in the new application for AmeriCorps that this is a new and very clear priority. • Increase and restore the number of AmeriCorps programs - we're looking at a 25 % growth from the 300 this year to next year; maintain program support. • Broaden the exposure of program efforts including bringing Commissioners to the AmeriCorps programs so that there is more interaction on the ground. Citizen Corps: • Triple the number of Citizen Corps councils. Currently there are 18 councils. The goal is to have 50 by the end ofthe year. • Work with existing and new councils to include all Citizen Corps programs. • Establish a CERT academy and integrate it into the Community College system. • Quadruple the number ofCERT trainers across the state. There are currently 100 trainers. Volunteer Investment Grants: • Align grant-making with mentoring priorities. • Re-acquire some of the previous years ' funding levels- $280,000 is a number we need to grow from. • Develop partnerships in corporate and philanthropic sector to see if we can infuse more resources into this program and provide more support. • Establish a data collection method to determine impact ofVIG. Currently we can tell you how much is invested but we can't tell you how many lives have been impacted. Learn and Serve: • Broaden the leadership and dialogue. The Learn and Serve team has been working to get policy makers involved and working with the State Superintendents through their association. • Secure increased levels of funding. • Secure and disseminate research on the effectiveness. This spring there should be data available on a study that has been done on service learning and MEAP scores. 6 �• • Develop a resource library for service-learning advocates to use but also for best practices. Develop a recognition program (Service Learning Award). Governor's Service Awards: • Increase the number of nominations. • Host a statewide recognition event (this year at the Volunteerism SuperConference). • Defray costs of GSA with fundraising. Mr. Caldwell explained that General Motors has sponsored $10,000 for GSA and thanked Commissioner Pickard for her help. • Secure media partners. • Broaden the support for GSA. Mr. Caldwell explained that the goals were compiled from the work from the retreat. Also, staff determined what they had going on and the things they needed to work on as well. So when you look at the goals, some are from the Commissioners comments and some are from the staff taking it to the next level. Chairperson Mulhern asked if any Commissioners had comments on the goals. Commissioner Newport stated that he like the goal statements that were compiled but was also anxious of looking beyond the immediate year. Is there any hope that we can look out to 2-year goals as opposed to the immediate year that we are halfway through. Mr. Caldwell stated that the answer is yes. For instance, Mentor Michigan. We can take the goal out for 3-4 years. We tried to talk about program specific goals. But external courses changed every single goal. We need to begin to take on these larger goals and see how elements can help support that. The vision statement is building a culture of service. What are the elements needed to build this culture of service and where do we want to begin to take that on? At the next retreat the board is going to have to look at the vision statement and see what kind of elements they want to see. Commissioner Pickard felt that the comments and recommendations regarding the Governor's Service Awards were looking at long term as far as making it an event that is meaningful. She also commended the staff for following up to comments that were made at the retreat. Commissioner Swain asked whether programs were going to have a problem shifting their focus to mentoring. Mr. Caldwell explained that mentoring was made a priority but that it wasn't the only priority. For many ofthe existing programs it wasn't a very big stretch because many of them are already working with schools and children. It did focus new applicants into an arena that we've not been before to get them to focus on mentoring. In the staff recommendations we did not say that if you weren't focused on mentoring, you weren't in. It was quality first. Paula Kaiser stated that of the 23 programs that filed Intent to Apply forms, 15 ofthose indicated that they are focused on mentoring. 7 �Commissioner Comer asked why there wasn't a goal set for the number of mentors recruited. Mr. Caldwell explained that there isn't a way to track the number of mentors yet but that Mentor Michigan is laying the foundation for being able to track that number. Chair Mulhern explained that Mentor Michigan has been recruiting this year via churches, the summits, etc., so it would be nice to account for what we've been doing. As a philosophical manner, he believes we need a goal even as we're trying to identify how we count. Commissioner Faris explained that when the invites were going out for the Mentoring Summits it was difficult to determine how many mentoring programs actually exist. There is not a measuring stick and there is not an organization that can tell you how many mentoring programs are out there, what they're doing, and how many kids lives have been affected by mentoring. The programs are looking at Mentor Michigan to begin to provide that data. Chairperson Mulhern stated that through the Mentor Summits the question was asked what measures are needed for tracking. Chairperson Mulhern said that we will push towards what we're going to measure and how many we're going to have by February and then we can establish as Commissioners what can help drive us to get there. Commissioner Newport asked about the future of the funding for VIG. Mr. Caldwell explained that due to the great work that volunteer centers have done under the leadership of Volunteer Centers ofMichigan he believes that the funding will still be there. But the economic forces of the state budget makes it a possibility for elimination. It's going to be where if falls in the priorities. We know the Governor supports it. Mr. Caldwell feels there is a 50/50 chance for VIG. Commissioner Pardoe mentioned regarding Service-Learning that she would like to see the Commission more connected with the Youth Advisory Council (YAC). She suggested a possible presentation at our February meeting so that Commissioners understand what they are doing. Mr. Caldwell gave more background on the Y AC and it's relationship under the Commission. He mentioned that he will have Angelia Salas or Jeanine Yard, who work with the council, invite them to the February meeting to do a presentation. Commissioner Pellegrino suggested that there needs to be more corporate support for Governor's Service Awards and agreed to help get corporate sponsors. Commissioner Makki also greed to help with sponsorship for the dinner. It could be a great way to raise funds to support the Commission. Commissioner Pickard stated that this event is a great way to showcase corporate support for volunteerism. Chairperson Mulhern stated that he will work with Kyle and the MCSC staff on making the goals a little clearer and trying to add some numbers where possible and will discuss it at the February 9 board meeting. 8 �N. Executive Director's Report - Kyle Caldwell A. Mentor Michigan Paula Kaiser discussed Mentor Michigan and stated that it is an initiative led by the Governor and First Gentleman to work to ensure that all youth have ongoing relationships with stable, caring individuals. The PR tag line being used is "Mentor Michigan - awakening and nurturing the amazing potential in youth." The belief is that every child has a right to a caring adult; that everyone is responsible for the well-being of our children including organizations like businesses, colleges and universities, schools, non-profits, faith-based organizations; and volunteering is a significant way for people to enrich their lives by giving of themselves to children in their communities. The vision is a Michigan where all children are nurtured and supported and where all children grow into a caring and contributing adult. The MCSC is partnering with the Volunteer Centers ofMichigan with the 1-800-Volunteer number. This will enable an adult or child to call that number and get connected to a mentoring organization. The MCSC is defining mentoring by using the National Mentoring Partnership ' s defmition of"a structured and trusting relationship that brings young people together with caring individuals who offer guidance, support and encouragement aimed at developing the competence and character of the mentee." This information was shared at the six mentoring summits. There are four different kinds of mentoring including traditional (one adult/one child), peer mentoring (older child/younger child), group mentoring (1 adult/4 children), and e-mentoring. Some facts regarding mentoring include 1.2% of all adults are involved with formal one-to-one mentoring, mentors in formal programs are most frequently ages 18-44, they are employed and have some college education, and non-whites and white mentors are equal in formal programs. Mentoring data includes 2.5 million children are being mentored nationally, 17.6 million could benefit from having a mentor, so only 14% of the kids that need mentors have them. Ms. Kaiser gave an update of what Mentor Michigan has done in the last three months : held 6 mentoring summits that engaged more than 1,100 participants across the state; launched the Mentor Michigan website (www.michigan.gov/mentor); launched a listserv where people in the mentoring community can sign-up and then communicate with other mentoring programs across the state and it's a way for us to share infonnation about funding opportunities or resources with them; collected information from more than 300 mentoring organizations through an on-line survey and are currently analyzing that data; modified the MCSC funding including AmeriCorps and VIG to include mentoring as a priority; and launched a lunch buddy program where 25 staff from the Governor' s office and MCSC are serving as mentors once a week at a school in Lansing. Ms. Kaiser shared what was learned from the summits: there are lots of mentoring programs throughout the state; there is significant interest from 9 �schools; programs are thrilled that there will be a state level umbrella that will provide leadership around mentoring because what was found was that many of the programs are mentoring but without any support from any national or statewide organizations; programs are looking for resources and support (including financial); and many of the local programs are not connected and did not know about each other and were not communicating. The MCSC had a list of 10 priorities and asked the participants at the summits to prioritize them and choose three priorities. The top five were: 1. Identify and secure resources to support the development and sustainability of programs. 2. To recruit talented and committed volunteers. 3. How to develop statewide and local partnerships to support mentoring by engaging corporations, faith-based organizations, colleges and universities, and government. 4. Increasing public awareness about mentoring opportunities, needs and the positive outcome associated with it. 5. Providing training and support for mentoring programs. Ms. Kaiser explained what is next for Mentor Michigan. January is National Mentoring Month and the MCSC is working with the First Gentleman's staff and aPR firm in Detroit to have radio and television PSA's that are national PSA's but will be localized to include a spot from the Governor and First Gentleman. It will be available to all the media promoting the 1-800-Volunteer number and asking people to consider mentoring. There will also be 100 billboards across the state that were donated. The MCSC is also creating a communications toolkit for the Mentor Michigan website that programs can download. It will include sample press releases, two letters from the Governor that the programs can use, a list of activities that the program may want to plan locally for National Mentoring Month, and tips with working with the media. The MCSC will be compiling a fmal report from the six summits. Through a partnership with Mary Pfeiler at the Corporation, the ConnectMichigan Alliance will be the recipient of a statewide VISTA program where there will be 25 VISTA's placed in teams of3-5 people in 5-8 communities. The application guidelines will be announced in January, sites will be selected in March, and VISTA's will be up and in place by July. They will be working in the 5-8 communities and focusing on the five priorities that came out of the summits. One measure that will come from the program will be every one ofthe 25 VISTA's will be responsible for recruiting 100 new mentors. The MCSC is also developing an evaluation system to track the growth of mentors but also to push beyond just counting the number of mentors and helping develop a tool that will help local programs evaluate the impact of their programs. The MCSC will also develop and secure funds to support Mentor Michigan. As Kyle Caldwell noted earlier, there isn't any money right now to administer the program. There was some unspent training money that paid for the summits. Before we move forward 10 �with new plans for the next year it will have to be determined how to gamer new resources. Even developing an evaluation and tracking system is going to cost money because there is not an internal capacity to develop a system that will be sophisticated enough and useful for all programs. Fundraising will be a priority at the beginning of the year. Other areas of priority will include launching a monthly electronic mentoring newsletter that people on the listserv will be receiving on an ongoing basis; providing ongoing training and support for mentoring programs; hosting a series of discussions with various sectors including higher education, faith-based, government and corporations to get them involved and to focus on that partnership to get them engaged; develop a framework to take a look at corporate and other sector involvement; helping to co-host a meeting of 600 faith leaders in February where the Governor will be addressing ministers and Mentor Michigan will be one ofthree initiatives addressed; surveying state agencies to find out what they currently are doing to support mentoring and if they are funding it and then will work with them in other ways that they can support it; promoting the 1-800Volunteer number; promoting a website Mentoring.org where you can type in your zip code to find mentoring opportunities; and developing a statewide directory of mentoring organizations across the state which will be available on the website once it is finalized. The MCSC will be looking at the information from the six summits and will be developing and revising the business plan accordingly. Commissioner Thomas asked what kind of best-practices information will be offered to mentoring groups and what will be the partnership with FlA. Ms. Kaiser explained that there are some national elements of effective practice for mentoring that were developed by the national experts in mentoring and were introduced to the participants at the summits. In future trainings, information will be provided that will address some of those elements such as how do you screen appropriately. The MCSC will be pointing them to some of the national resources that are available that people are not aware of. Ms. Kaiser also addressed the partnership with FIA and how mentoring may be one of the programs offered through the A YP relationship with the schools. Commissioner Parker suggested that Commissioners participate during National Mentoring Month in local press events and also possibly doing radio interviews to promote mentoring. Commissioner Pickard asked what the goal for raising funds for Mentor Michigan is. Paula Kaiser stated that it hasn't been determined. Commissioner Pickard was concerned about raising funds for Governor's Service Awards and Mentor Michigan at the same time and whether we could combine the fundraising efforts. Paula Kaiser answered by saying we could coordinate the efforts. The MCSC is starting to look at the 3-year plan for Mentor Michigan and what kind of resources 11 �need to be leveraged to support the plan. Who do we want to go to, because different from GSA, we may get support from a foundation to support broader administration things that we want to do. Commissioner Swain asked where the Governor appointed advisory council for Mentor Michigan stands. Ms. Kaiser stated that the Governor's office is soliciting names of those interested in serving on that advisory council. The thought is that it would be made up of practioners and experts in the mentoring field because the MCSC board will serve as the leadership board so the advisory council should be the eyes and ears to the ground in terms of those involved and that know a lot about mentoring. Mary Zatina stated that the advisory council may be announced in January but there has been a lot of discussion about what their role will be. Chairperson Mulhern thanked everyone for their help for the Mentoring Summits and the Commissioners that participated. He felt they were a tremendous success. 2. Service-Learning Diana Algra discussed the hearings of the Education Subcommittee on Service-Learning and Civic Education. She explained that each of the Commissioners were given a packet of information on the hearings. She stated that 4 7 speakers from the national, state, and local levels presented at the hearings around the state including some Commissioners. Members of the committee asked a lot of questions. There is a lot of excitement and interest generated by the hearings. The MCSC will continue to work with the subcommittee as Rep. Hart has some other ideas of convening additional groups for discussion including higher education, education associations, and superintendents. Kyle Caldwell thanked Diana Algra for her efforts with the hearings. Rep. Hart has asked Rep. Hopgood to continue the efforts because he is term limited. Rep Hart will also ask for the appointment of a blue ribbon committee to take up some ofthe information from the testimony and drive it further and to discuss the 10 key things needed to make service-learning and civic education work better. Diana Algra stated that Representative Doug Hart will be coming to the February board meeting to discuss some of the fmdings from the subcommittee hearings. Commissioner Mawby asked what the MCSC would like to come out of the hearings. Mr. Caldwell explained that the first goal was to get service learning on the radar of the legislators. The second goal was to take what we get from the experience and figure out what the field is saying they want and take it to whatever body wants to act. A concise list of recommendations were given at the last hearing by both Dan Mulhern and Dottie Johnson. What needs to happen is this needs to be recognized as a valid teaching methodology. 12 �Second, there needs to be some type of recognition given to the teachers that are doing it as a way of profiling and highlighting. At some point in the future resources are going to need to be devoted to this higher than what they are right now (currently there is $800,000 for service learning). And finally it needs a champion and leadership beyond the Commission and this is what the Governor is doing. B. Financial Report - Kyle Caldwell Mr. Caldwell discussed the financial statement dated December 1, 2003 that was distributed to the Commissioners. C. Staff Funding Recommendations - Kyle Caldwell 1. Learn and Serve Kyle Caldwell explained that there is a memo in the packet that outlines the staff recommendation for the Learn and Serve- Michigan Community-Based grant.

Ms. Grill asked Commissioners to participate as a peer reviewer for the GSA. The Commissioners also received a list of potential sponsors and Ms. Grill asked for their assistance in soliciting sponsors and making follow-up calls. Chairperson Mulhern asked that a policy for GSA fundraising be hammered out by February 9, 2004 meeting. 14 �Commissioners Comer and Young-Welch will be added to the Outreach and Communications Committee. Mary Grill also mentioned that all of the Commissioners have received updated information for their Key Information Binders. D. VI. New business - Chairperson Dan Mulhern A. Vll.

He firmly believes that better educated students have a greater chance for success and will be more productive citizens. Hart was elected in November 1998 to represent the 73rd District, which encompasses the Rockford area in northern Kent County. In 1999, Doug founded The Civics Institute (TCD to impart civics and government knowledge to students. TCI includes a virtual Michigan learning resource center for government teachers, two online Michigan governance courses, and a single semester internship program in the Michigan Legislature. An offshoot of TCI, the Michigan House Civics Commission, teaches students about the legislative process and gives them a voice in the Michigan Legislature. A Speakers Bureau features House and Senate employees who voluntarily visit classrooms and share their legislative knowledge with students. The commission consists of a bipartisan group oflawmakers engaging students in research, discussion, writing and testimony about the issues. The students are encouraged to advocate what they believe would be good policy or legislation. Since December 2002, the panel has held 14 public hearings within Michigan's K-12 schools. As a result of a hearing at a Forest Hills Middle School in Grand Rapids, the Legislature proclaimed October as "Student Backpack Safety Month," and Gov. Jennifer Granholm signed it. Several students testified before the commission, basing their arguments on a study by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission describing the injuries students sustained from carrying heavy backpacks. The study found that in 1999, 3,400 pupils ages 5 to 14 sought treatment in hospital emergency rooms for injuries related to heavy backpacks and bookbags. Other ideas proposed by Michigan House Civics Commission students included legislation to deal with Cell phone towers on school property, bike paths on busy roads, speed bumps in new neighborhoods and bus stop safety. "This is just what we had in mind when we established the civics commission," Hart said. "It is great to see students working hard to make a difference in state government. I've been impressed with the quality and quantity of good ideas presented by our students." As a state lawmaker, Rep. Hart has distinguished himself in other areas as well. During his first four years in the legislature, Rep. Hart chaired the powerful House Family and Children Services Committee. In this position, Hart shepherded several large and complicated legislative packages through the Michigan House of Representatives. �Due to Rep. Hart's energy, vision and leadership, numerous historic reforms were made to Michigan's welfare, child support, and child protection systems. For his first two terms in the legislature, Doug Hart was known as the primary welfare policy expert and leader in the Michigan House ofRepresentatives. Since leaving his position on the House Family and Children Services Committee, Representative Hart has taken the leading role in the legislature on state K -16 service learning and civic education issues. The success that has come to fruition - the opportunity to get students enthused and excited about civics - is what inspired Hart to run for office. Doug has long demonstrated great political passion and involvement, starting in his boyhood when he volunteered with several west Michigan lawmakers. He gained first hand knowledge of the legislative process by working as a legislative aide to former state Rep. Jack Horton of Kent County. Doug received his B.A. degree in communication as well as a teaching certificate, from Calvin College. He has served on the board of directors of the Kent Service Center, as well as on the board of the Servants Center in Grant Rapids, an outreach center for urban youth that offers services such as job training, crisis intervention and counseling. Doug and his wife, Carolyn, have one son, three-year-old Justin, and reside in Rockford. He regards helping others as simply an obligation of his faith, and he finds it both challenging and rewarding. "Public service, in the broadest sense, has been a priority since I was young," Hart said. "I mean more than just serving as an elected official- I mean serving other people students, people living in my neighborhood, the entire community. We're all in this together."

The Committee received imponant insights on issues facing our public education system. We also were able to garner a number of key suggestions that may enhance and support the work of our educators. It is clear that there are a number of challenges and opportUnities that everyone can address. In this document you will find helpful insight into the civic education of our youth and the potential for service learning to help increase the quality of learning in our classrooms and our communities. This dialogue is important as we see that there are three powerful forces-accountability for results, fmancial constraints and public relevance-challenging our K-12 public education system. Each has an important role to play in the development of our nation's future citizenry. They force each of us to consider the role of education in our lives and those of our children. Students and parents need to know that knowledge is absorbed and integrated so that they can make good decisions based on imponant principles. The participants in our public education system must act responsibly to ensure that they remain good stewards of the funds entrusted to them to educate our children. Finally, the purpose of our public education system must be constantly reinforced and supported in order to develop an informed and engaged citizenry. This is the primary system by which we ensure the integrity and strength of our democracy. The question we now face is whether we are effectively meeting the charge of that public education purpose. There is significant debate on this question, as you will see in this summary. There is also a powerful set of recommendations that will .help each of us detennine how best to address all the aforementioned challenges. Civic education is our best defense against a disengaged citizen who doesn't vote and does not value a life of public service. Our children must learn at an early age that engagement in their community is important and that there are key activities and systems they can use to address local challenges. Service learning take the key academic goals and makes them real for srudents by using service as a hands on strategy to demonstrate relevance and the role of an individual to care for and about their community. Combined, civic education and service learning serve as powerful forces to enhance learning and develop our nation's leaders. �I hope you find this summary helpful as we all work together to help our children learn and grow in a strong and vibrant society. I would like to thank Representative Brian Palmer, Chair of the House Education Committee, for appointing our subcomnrlnee and lending his leadership and suppon to our work. I would also like to thank my colleagues-Representatives Stahl, Vander Veen. Clack, Hopgood-for their participation and support. For the KIDS! esentanve Doug Chair, House Education Subcommittee on Service Learning and Civic Education �State of Civic Education and Service Learning in Michigan Summary of Statewide Hearings of the Michigan House Subcommittee on Service-Learning and Civic Education During the past four years, the field of education in general and K-12 specifically, has focused on the core purposes of our nation's public education system. You can find this dialogue in the publication of a number of studies and reports addressing the need for and impact of service-learning and civic education. Three of these studies have had a direct impact on both service-learning and civic education including: • Every Student A Citizen: Creating the Democratic Self, issued by the Education Commission of the States • Learning in Deed: The Power of Service-Learning for American Schools, issued by the National Commission on Service-Learning • The Civic Mission of Schools, a report from the Carnegie Corporation of New York and the Center for Information & Research on Civic Learning & Engagement (CIRCLE) Each of these studies documents the strategies and benefits of service-learning and civic education. With these documents as a foundation, Michigan State Representative Doug Hart requested and was granted the Subcommittee on Service-Learning and Civic Education. This five-member committee 1called upon the Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) to assist in gathering input on how these two issues are impacting Michigan schools and its students. The MCSC undertook the task of convening six hearings throughout the state and sought testimony from national, state and local experts in these fields . In all, 47 individuals2 testified before the members of the Subcommittee. The following is a summary of the key recommendations made during the hearings. Overall, the recommendations can be categorized into the following seven major themes: 1. Include the social studies in the MERIT award and promote the importance of the social studies MEAP. 2. Every effort should be made to utilize existing resources and partnerships that have a long track record of results. 3. Every effort must be made to support public education. Do not cut school budgets. Stress the need for efficient use of available resources. 1 2 See Appendix 1 for list of Subcommittee members. See Appendix 2 for the list of speakers. �4. Call on the U.S. Congress to do more to provide states with greater resources to improve and expand service-learning. 5. Invest in sound, rigorous research that will advance service-learning statewide as well as nationally. 6. Provide additional funds to support teachers' professional development so that they can embrace new ideas that will promote service-learning and civic education. 7. Create and support meaningful decision making roles for youth in servicelearning initiatives at every level. Testimony Related to Recommendations 1. Include the social studies in the MERIT award and promote the importance of the social studies MEAP. Karen Todorov, Social Studies Consultant-Michigan Department of Education We need your support and the action of the Michigan legislature to appropriate professional development funds to aid organizations that are working to promote engaged civic education. We need the support of the Michigan Legislature to include the social studies in the MERIT award and to promote the importance of the social studies MEAP. Including the social studies in MERIT is logical and would help support the teaching and learning of civic issues in high school. Linda Start, Executive Director-Center for Civic Education through Law Continue the support for the Michigan Core Academic Curriculum and MEAP testing. Instead of initiating any new requirements, revisit the pertinent standards, if necessary. If there is going to continue to be a merit scholarship, make sure that social studies is included with the other subjects. Thomas Costello, Social Studies Teacher-Longfellow Middle School Teaching Civics Education is critical to forming the bases of an informed public able to function and contribute in a changing world. (Michigan) House Bill 4170 would include Social Studies in the MEAP Merit Scholarship. Support of this legislation would send the message that Social Studies including Civics Education are important for our students, parents, educators, and citizens ofthe State ofMichigan. 2 �Michael Yocum, Director of Learning Services-Oakland Schools Recommend continuing support for the inclusion of social studies in the Michigan Core Academic Curriculum and MEAP testing. Due to the No Child Left Behind legislation there is significant work being done in mathematics and language arts to give more careful and clearer definition to the expectations for students in the Michigan Curriculum Framework. This work needs to occur in social studies so that the standard will be more useful to schools and will continue to serve as the linchpin for efforts intended to support civic education Include the social studies in the Merit Award program. The exclusion of it sends a powerful message to students, teachers, schools and the public about what is important in the education of our young people. Jerry F. Givan, Social Studies Teacher-Young Magnet Middle School The MEAP test, not the ACT should be the vehicle used to measure proficiency ofMichigan's students. Continue your support of the HB 4170 and support for adding social studies to the Merit Award. Heather Reid, Teacher- Loy Norrix High School My recommendations are that we value social studies and civic education. Make it a priority that ifthere is testing- social studies are included. lfthere is a Merit Award-social studies are included. Other General Recommendations Continue the support for the Michigan Core Academic Curriculum and MEAP testing. Instead of initiating any new requirements, revisit the pertinent standards, if necessary. National Scene Education Commission of the States, "Every Student A Citizen: Creating the Democratic Self" "Include social studies, civics and government courses, stories and lessons that teach the traditions of how ordinary citizens have created real and lasting social change." John Glenn and Leslie Hergert, Letters to the Next President First, we must explicitly embrace civic education as an essential purpose of education. We must go back to our roots. 3 �The Civic Mission of Schools, A report from the Carnegie Corporation ofNew York and CIRCLE: The Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement Standards should be implemented for civic education. This can be done by 1) more frequently offering the National Assessment of Educational Progress's (NAEP) Civics Assessment, in states as well as nationally, and/or 2) reexamining existing state social studies and civic education standards with a goal of ensuring that the promising approaches and goals of civic education outlined in this report are realized by the establishment of supportive standards and curricular policies. 2. Every effort should be made to utilize existing resources and partnerships that have a long track record of results. Russ Mawby, Chair Emeritus and Trustee WK. Kellogg Foundation We seek your (Legislatures) support in driving Learning To Give deep into our education system. It is a win-win opportunity for teachers to access free, interactive, and proven learning tools while addressing the learning goals of our K-12 education system. It is also a natural fit for fme public servants like you, to promote this tool as a way of weaving a stronger civic community fabric through our education system - one of the original purposes of our public system. Nelda Brown, Executive Director- State Education Agency K-12 Service-Learning Network Learn from the success and challenges of others. Do not overlook the great examples of "State-Level Leadership At Work" right in your own backyard. The Michigan Community Service Commission's investment in conducting scientifically based research and evaluation will no doubt advance service-learning statewide as well as nationally. Adrian Davis, National Consultant-National Board for Professional Teaching Standards Legislatures must ensure that all schools develop networks that consist of other community organizations so kids are exposed to the complex array of government, private, and nonprofit entities that make up our society. 4 �Through the Michigan Core Academic Curriculum and establishing networks all districts should be encouraged to incorporate civic education and service-learning into the daily activities of all students. Dottie Johnson, Board Member- Corporation for National and Community Service and Trustee, WK. Kellogg Foundation Work with school boards and parent-teacher organizations to make civics education a priority. Math, reading, and science are important. .. but they are not more important than retaining our way of life. Provide stable funding for core operating expenses for key student development organizations and educational opportunities within school and after school. Fundraising should still occur, but only government can provide the stable infrastructure of funding to key organizations. Stable funding is the literal investment that says: "Educating students for citizenship is important to democracy"- more than lip service, --money on the table. Provide a politically neutral place for all interested stakeholders to come together, to bring resources, to attain a common vision for Michigan students. Bill Dimond, Kalamazoo Sunrise Rotary Club I encourage you to engage the business community and service organizations such as Rotary International. Other General Recommendations Work with school boards and parent-teacher organizations to make civics education a priority. Support the work of the Michigan Community Service Commission as their work supports the implementation of service-learning throughout the state. With their leadership, the movement grows. Encourage student participation in some form ·o f service, student government, and civic team activity for each student- every year. National Scene Education Commission of the States, "Every Student A Citizen: Creating the Democratic Self" Establish a national dialogue among organizations working on these issues, focused on how to engage young people in political action. 5 �3. Every effort must be made to support public education. Do not cut school budgets. Stress the need for efficient use of available resources. Lynn Kleiman-Malinoff- Research & Development Specialist- Wayne Westland Community School Districts Increase resources in the community and schools for after school and summer programs that use service-learning as a key strategy to engage youth. Provide more opportunities for Leader Schools within Michigan as well as develop a Michigan Leader School model so that alternative and traditional schools can learn from those schools that have some expertise with servicelearning. 4. Call on the U.S. Congress to do more to provide states with greater resources to improve and expand service-learning. Jerry Seese- Superintendent-Saginaw Township Community Schools In order to cause these programs (service-learning programs) to evolve, a system has to be in place to ensure that requirements are implemented. Additional funds are necessary to make this happen. State and local communities are dependent on funding to bring these programs to fruition. I'm asking that you consider funding Service-Learning Programs at the level necessary to have a significant impact on the students and adults in Michigan. Anne Brow, Elementary-Teacher-Glen Lake Community School I would recommend that your committee consider the importance of additional money to support teacher's professional development so that they can embrace new ideas that will promote civic education and service-learning. Minnie Pearce, Board Member- National Commission on Service Learning The final report of the Commission entitled Learning in Deed makes specific recommendations: Increase policy, program and financial supports for service-learning in K-12 education. To achieve this you must: a. Expand and leverage existing programs and funding streams. b. Build service-learning into the regular school activities. c. Fund and expand research to document service-learning outcomes and improve practice. 6 �Nelda Brown, Executive director- State Education Agency K-12 Service-Learning Network Investing in sound, rigorous research is a critical leadership step more states must take. As state legislators, call on the U.S. Congress to do more to provide states with greater resources to improve and expand service-learning. Lynn Kleiman-Malinoff, Research & Development Specialist-Way ne Westland Community School District Support public education. Do not cut our budgets. When you do, programs (like alternative education) that address the needs of students will suffer. Increase funding and training resources in the alternative education setting for service-learning. Dottie Johnson, Board Member- Corporation for National and Community Service and Trustee, WK. Kellogg Foundation Provide stable funding for core operating expenses for key student development organizations and educational opportunities within school and after school. Fundraising should still occur, but only government can provide the stable infrastructure of funding to key organizations. Stable funding is the literal investment that says: "Educating students for citizenship is important to democracy"- more than lip service, --money on the table. Other General Recommendations Provide stable funding for core operating expenses for student development organizations and educational opportunities within school and after school (fundraising should still occur, but only government can provide the stable infrastructure of funding to key organizations). National Scene Th e Civic Mission of Schools, A report from the Carnegie Corporation of New York and CIRCLE: The Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement The federal government should increase the amount of federal funding available to states for civic education. The government should further consider establishing a new federal entity with responsibility for civic education which would commission research on civic education, encourage the development of model programs, help design and implement curricula, and serve as a national clearinghouse on civic education for teachers and schools across the country. 7 �5. Invest in sound, rigorous research that will advance service-learning statewide as well as nationally. Amy Smitter, Executive Director-Michigan Campus Compact I want to recommend that we undertake a state civic assessment of Michigan. This will permit us to have the facts on which to educate for and see clearly where the gaps in civic education are taking place. Nelda Brown, Executive director- State Education Agency K-12 Service-Learning Network Investing in sound, rigorous research is a critical leadership step more states must take. National Scene Th e Civic Mission of Schools, A report from the Carnegie Corporation of New York and CIRCLE: The Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement Researchers should develop and implement more rigorous studies (including longitudinal research) about effective service-learning and other civic education approaches. Researchers should also develop indicators for civic knowledge, skills, and attitudes at each phase of K -12 schooling. 6. Provide additional funds to support teachers' professional development so that they can embrace new ideas that will promote civic education and service-learning. Anne Brow, Elementary- Teacher-Glen Lake Community School I would recommend that your committee consider the importance of additional money to support teacher's professional development so they can embrace new ideas that promote civic education and service-learning. Karen Todorov, Social Studies Consultant-Michigan Department of Education Supporting professional development through organizations which are set up to provide service, means that allocated money would be directed towards improving the quality of civic teaching and learning in Michigan, not in setting up institutions whose life span is determined by limited funding. 8 �Minnie Pearce, Board Member- National Commission on Service Learning Develop a comprehensive system of professional development regarding servicelearning. Some specific objectives should be to: a. Make service-learning part of all pre-service preparation and accreditation programs for teachers and administrators. b. Provide ongoing in-service professional development on servicelearning for teachers at all levels, from novice to veteran. c. Create multi-media professional development resources, including more web-based resources for teachers. Lynn Kleiman-Malinoff, Research & Development Specialist-Wayne Westland Community School District Require education students who seek their teaching credentials to take a class in service-learning methodology. Dottie Johnson, Board Member- Corporation for National and Community Service and Trustee, WK. Kellogg Foundation Provide additional incentives to schools and teachers for supporting the cocurricular and extra-curricular, service-learning, and experiential activities that develop sound character and good citizenship. Encourage student participation in some form of service, student government, and civic team activity for each student- every year. National Scene The Civic Mission of Schools, A report from the Carnegie Corporation of New York and CIRCLE: The Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement Schools ofEducation should strengthen the civic dimensions of pre-service and in-service education for teachers and administrators. Those who are already working in schools should also be offered the opportunity to acquire continuing education credits related to civic education so that they can become more skilled at inculcating the civic knowledge, skills, and attitudes students need to become responsible and engaged citizens. 7. Create and support meaningful decision making roles for youth in servicelearning initiatives at every level. Jeffery J Miller, Policy Analyst, Center for Learning and Citizenship 9 �Providing authentic leadership roles for young people in the development of public policy at all levels. Minnie Pearce, Board Memb er- National Commission on Service Learning a. Support adults in giving students real authority, responsibility, and accountability for developing service-learning initiatives. b. Create and support meaningful decision making roles for youth in servicelearning initiatives at every level. c. Expand and support a national network of youth leaders for service-learning. Lynn Kleiman-Malinoff, Research & Development Specialist-Wayne Westland Community School District The communities gain from the resources that students provide and from the reduction in negative, sometimes expensive and destructive behaviors. Our community becomes stronger each time a school or community-based organization uses service-learning to engage students in a positive way in their communities. National Scene The Civic Mission of Schools, A report from the Carnegie Corporation of New York and CIRCLE: The Center for Information and Research on Civic Learning and Engagement Active learning opportunities that offer students the change to engage in discussions of issues and take part in activities that can help put a "real life" perspective on what is learned in class. These activities can range from collaborative or independent research projects and presentations to simulations, mock trials and elections, service-learning projects, and participation in the student government. Education Commission of the States, "Every Student A Citizen: Creating the Democratic Self" Implement programs of community outreach to involve community groups in creating democratic learning environments in all schools, giving careful consideration to restructuring measures that make it possible for students to participate in decision making activities and governance. 10 �~pei!_~ix 1 - - . ,----·--·---·----- HOUSE SUBCOMMITTEE ON SERVICE-LEARNING AND CIVIC EDUCATION MEMBERS CHAIR: Representative Doug Hart District 73 37329 Mesa Court Rockford, Michigan 49341 Phone: (517) 373-0218 Room N -1092, Anderson Building dist073 @house.mi. gov Representative Brenda Clack District 34 3120 Helber Street Flint, Michigan 48504 Phone: (517) 373-8808 Room N-798, Anderson Building brendaclack@house.mi. gov Representative John Stahl District 82 3790 Five Lakes Road North Branch, Michigan 48461 Phone(517)373-1800 Room S-1186, Anderson Building j ohnstahl@house.mi. gov Representative Hoon-Yung Hopgood District 22 10200 Beech Daly Taylor, Michigan 48180 Phone: (517) 3 73-0852 Room S-786, Anderson Building Hoon-yunghopgood@house.mi. gov Representative Barbara Vander Veen District 89 6185 Alger Street Allendale, Michigan 49401 Phone: (517) 373-0838 Room N-1193, Anderson Building repbarbvanderveen@house.mi.gov Other Representative Participants: Representative Jack Minore District 49 610 Commonwealth Avenue Flint, Michigan 48503 Phone: (517) 373-7515 Room N-898, Anderson Building jminore@house.mi.gov Representative Howard C.

GRANHOLM, Governor MICHIGAN COMMUNITY SERVICE COMMISSION 1048 Pierpont, Suite 4 Lansing, Michigan 48913 Telephone: 517.335.4295 FAX: 517.373.4977 www.michigan.gov/mcsc Chairperson Daniel G. Mulhern Executive Director Kyle Caldwell MEMORANDUM TO: Members of the Michigan Community Servif~t:'mmission Executive Committee FROM: Kyle CaldweU, Executive Director I~ DATE: January 23,2004 RE: Summary of January 23,2004 Meeting The following is a summary ofthe meeting of the Michigan Community Service Commission Executive Committee held via conference call on January 23, 2004. The meeting was called to order at 10:09 a.m. Members present: Daniel Mulhern, Chair; Robert A.Collier, Vice Chair; Russell G. Mawby, and Meg Smith. Staff present: Kyle Caldwell, Mary Zatina, Janice Harvey. Update on Mentor Michigan Mr. Caldwell mentioned that January is National Mentoring Month and what the MCSC was doing to promote Mentor Michigan. He discussed the "Thank Your Mentor" Press Conference with Governor Granholm and First Gentleman Dan Mulhern on January 15. He also discussed other methods of promoting National Mentoring Month including billboards that will be going up around the state and Op-Eds from Commissioners to their local newspapers. The business plan for Mentor Michigan is being crafted and will be discussed at the February MCSC board meeting. Chair Mulhern mentioned that there are PSA's that he and the Governor participated in that are airing and that he has been doing radio interviews to promoting mentoring. He also mentioned that the goal was to have 1500 hits on the MentorMichigan.org website and that we are close to attaining that goal. Commissioner Mawby mentioned that the ads looked great and that the challenge will be to keep mentoring going all year. Chair Mulhern stated that February is Black History Month and his office will be working with the Mayor of Detroit to promote mentoring during the month. Mr. Caldwell announced that Suzanne Geha, WOOD-TV 8 in Grand Rapids, has agreed to serve as emcee for the Governor's Service Awards and will do a media push during May �focusing on mentoring and the Governor's Service Awards. There will also be a category this year focusing on mentoring. Review of Goals for 2004 Mr. Caldwell explained that there will be an additional piece added to the AmeriCorps goals for this year that will focus on quality. There will be added emphasis on what we define as best programs and what quality means. February 9, 2004 Meeting Agenda The members discussed the agenda. Mr. Caldwell mentioned that the Outreach Committee will be highlighting the commitments from sponsors of $20,000 for the GSA. He also stated that six Commissioners are making calls to add additional sponsors. It was discussed at the December board meeting to possibly combine the fundraising efforts for GSA with Mentor Michigan. The Executive Committee members agreed that it would be more effective to keep the fundraising efforts separate. Mr. Caldwell stated that he is waiting for confirmation that David Eisner, CEO of CNCS, will speak during the Volunteer SuperConference. If he does confirm, Mr. Caldwell would like to invite him to participate in a roundtable with Commissioners and site visits. It was clarified that the accomplishment of Eisner's visit to Michigan would be a better understanding of where the field stands, Michigan's deep roots in philanthropy, contacts to Michigan to use as a touchstone, and reinforce the importance of state commissions. Chair Mawby mentioned that it would be effective to have an AmeriCorps program present during the conversation. The members also discussed the President's mention of mentoring in his State of the Union and how we can tie that in with Michigan. The February 9, 2004 meeting agenda was approved. Approval ofstaff recommendation of Michigan Campus Compact AmeriCorps Proposal (Education Award Only) Mr. Caldwell gave background on the proposal and explained that this funding is different than the other funding of AmeriCorps programs. This funding will be for the education award only and usually goes to organizations that don't need the admin or stipend. The CNCS has some additional education awards available. The education only awards are a big advantage for MCSC as it helps our portfolio. See attached memo for outline of awards. Commissioner Mawby moved to approve the staff recommendations of Michigan Campus Compact AmeriCorps Proposal. Commissioner Collier seconded the motion. -The motion passed unanimously. Future Executive Committee Meeting Dates Mr. Caldwell explained that an additional Executive Committee meeting was added on March 17 at 10:00 am to approve funding for AmeriCorps and Citizen Corps The meeting was adjourned at 10:38 a.m. �STATE OF MICHIGAN JENNIFER M. GRANHOLM, Governor MICHIGAN COMMUNITY SERVICE COMMISSION Chairperson Daniel G. Mulhern 1048 Pierpont, Suite 4 Lansing, Michigan 48913 Phone: (517) 335-4295 Fax: (517) 272-4977 www.michigan.gov/mcsc Executive Director Kyle Caldwell MEMORANDUM TO: Members of the Michigan Community Service Commission Executive Committee FROM: Kyle Caldwell, Executive Director ~ (/" tJl__ DATE: January 20, 2004 RE: Staff Recommendations for AmeriCorps Funding (Education Award Only Grant) Recommendation The Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) staff recommends provisional approval of the Michigan Campus Compact (MCC) AmeriCorps Education Award Only program for 300 minimum-time members (serving 300 hours each per year) and a total of $24,000 in operation costs. Applicant Members and Hours Michigan Campus Compact 300 @ 300 hrs. /year Total Value 300 members Full-time Equivalent (FfE) 60 Amount of Grant Educational Awards $400 x 60 FTE 300@ $1,000 each $24,000 $300,000* (1 FTE= 5 minimwn-time members) 60FfE * Education Awards are administered directly by the CNCS with the individual members. The MCSC would not be responsible for the administration of these awards. Summary The staff received an application for an AmeriCorps Education Award Only program from the MCC to engage 300 minimum-time (300 hours) members (60 full-time equivalent), year around, to provide services to youth state wide. The Education Award Only programs differ from our other AmeriCorps programs in that the applicant underwrites the costs of operating the program �(with the exception of a $400/FTE allotment), and in exchange the Corporation for National and Community Service will provide the Education Award to the members who have served. As a program of the MCC, college students at the organization's member campuses will be enrolled and supervised through campus service offices and partner community organizations. Campuses will participate in a competitive application process to receive members, and place them in local partner community organizations to complete their service. Members will mainly be comprised of those students who qualify for Federal Work Study, thus encouraging each university to lend increased support to meet local community needs. In addition, a large component of each member' s development will focus on increasing their understanding of civic engagement and effective citizenship, by incorporating training and discussion on related topics into the program's member development plan. While at their service sites, members will engage youth in activities such as mentoring in order to increase youth socialization, self-esteem and confidence. Members will also recruit at least 10 community volunteers each in support of program activities, leveraging a total of 3,000 additional community volunteers. The MCSC staffbelieves that the proposal is sound and would prove competitive. Therefore staff requests provisional funding to proceed with the submission of the application to the Corporation for National and Community Service so that the MCC may address the following: 1. Narrowing and identifying the specific community needs the members will address through their service. 2. More clarity on how MCC will identify sites and incorporate them in the overall monitoring/evaluation plan the MCC will use to measure impact. 3. More specificity on outcome measures for the program. Education Award Only programs have three submission dates: February 3, 2004, May 11, 2004, and November 2, 2004. This application would be slated for a February 3rd submission. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The Corporation administers Senior Corps, AmeriCorps, Learn and Serve America and other domestic service initiatives that engage Americans of all ages and backgrounds in service to their communities and country. "National and community service represents the best of American citizens' commitment to our civil society and democratic values," said Eisner. "I am extremely grateful to Preside nt Bush for nominating me, and to the Senate for allowing me to serve in this post." Eisner, 42, takes over from Acting CEO James F. Manning, who remains the agency's Chief Operating Officer. In his new position, Eisner will oversee an agency with 600 employees that supports more than 1.5 million Americans who serve the needs of their communities through schools, nonprofits, and faith-based and community organizations. On Monday, the House of Representatives approved a 20 percent budget increase for the Corporation and its programs as part of the Fiscal 2004 Omnibus Appropriations bill. "I am very eager to get to work," said Eisner. "The Corporation and our grantees have had a difficult year, but it's a new day. We are moving ahead, confident in our mission , optimistic about our future, and committed to becoming even more effective and accountable as we strengthen volunteering and service across America. With an incredibly dedicated staff, an outstanding field, and a historic bipartisan display of grassroots, Congressional, and Presidential support, we are poised to engage more Americans in service to meet the needs of our neighborhoods and nation ." Stephen Goldsmith, Chairman of the Corporation's Board of Directors, said, "The Corporation is very fortunate to have attracted someone with experience in the corporate, nonprofit, and government sectors - especially someone with the organizational, management, and leadership skills that David brings to the post." "I am extremely pleased that we have the benefit of David's leadership to help achieve the President's goal of increased volunteering and civic engagement in our nation/ added John Bridgeland, Assistant to the President and Director of the USA Freedom Corps. "David will strengthen management and accountability at the Corporation, which will help ensure that more Americans have the opportunity to serve their communities through volunteering and national service." The Corporation and its programs are a key �component of USA Freedom Corps, a White House initiative to foster a culture of citizenship, service, and responsibility and to help all Americans answer President Bush 's Call to Service. From 1997 until this year, Eisner was a Vice President at AOL Time Warner. He also was Senior Vice President of the AOL Time Warner Foundation . At AOL, he directed and developed the company's charitable foundation and its pro-social business strategy, managing a team of employees responsible for creating and sustaining strategic relationships, coalition development, philanthropic initiatives, and social policy issues impacting the company's business divisions. Eisner also led the effort to develop two leading donation and volunteer websites: the AOL Foundation's Helping.org, and Network for Good, a partnership between AOL Time Warner, Cisco Systems, and Yahoo . In collaboration with the federal government, he was also instrumental in helping to create the USA Freedom Corps Volunteer Network, the largest network of volunteer opportunities ever assembled. Before joining AOL, Eisner worked for four years as Senior Vice President in the Washington, D.C., office of Fleishman-Hilliard International Communications, one of th e world's largest public relations firms. From 1990 to 1993, he managed public relations at the Legal Services Corporation. Eisner started his career on Capitol Hill, serving as press secretary for three Members of Congress between 1985 and 1990: Dana Rohrabacher (R-CA), Bill McCollum (R-FL) and Mac Sweeney (R-TX). Eisner has brought his expertise in organizational development to bear as a board member of several national nonprofit organizations, including Independent Sector, the National 4-H Council, and Network for Good. He was a founding board member of the Social Enterprise Alliance, which helps nonprofit groups employ earned income strategies to build sustainability, and he also served on the boards of the Nonprofit Technology Enterprise Network, which supports the thousands of individuals and hundreds of organizations that build technology capacity within nonprofit organizations, and Technology Works for Good, which delivers technology solutions to nonprofit organizations in the Washington, D.C., region. "In addition to being a strong leader, thinker, and collaborator, David has a wealth of expertise in organizational structure and nonprofit capacity-building," said Diana Aviv, President of Independent Sector, a national coalition of more than 700 charities, foundations, and corporate philanthropic programs. "We're delighted that the President has selected and the Senate has confirmed such an inspired choice to strengthen the cause of national service and serve the entire nonprofit sector. David knows how to work with others and understands service and volunteerism. I am confident that under his stewardship, the Corporation for National and Community Service will be well managed and will flourish." A graduate of Stanford University, Eisner received his law degree from Georgetown University Law Center. He and his wife, Lori, live in Bethesda, Maryland, with their four young children. Through its various programs, the Corporation for National and Community Service provides opportunities for Americans of all ages and backgrounds to serve their communities and country.

This month is National Mentoring Month, so I thought I would write about a couple of the key connections between mentoring and leadership. Let me begin with a story. Wednesday of last week was "Thank your mentor day" (if this escaped your attention, it's not too late to let someone know the impact they had on your life). My wife and I decided to invite our mentors and our mentees to join us for lunch. It felt like family, but with a heightened level of purpose, and with a heightened sense of mystery. Isn't it a mystery when you consider how life bestows on you the gift of this For-Some-Reason-Important-Person, who measurably improves the innermost workings of your self-perception and your other-direction. The six ofr us at lunch also shared an inter-generational connection like I had never experienced. We were all "in the moment," yet you could feel a sense of time -the hard-fought wisdom of elders and the rising hope of the young . It could not have felt more like blood family than it did. But I get ahead of myself. When we decided on the lunch, I knew exactly whom to call . Fr. Canfield had been my high school counselor and principal when I was a senior. I called him up. I asked him how he was. "Hangin' in there," he replied. "Tough day?" I asked. And he launched into a story about an 11th grader who had a half hour earlier grabbed all his books and left the school in a flurry of expletives and exasperation. "He's a really bright kid, and he's finally started working, and can't believe the results aren't instantaneous. He got his grades, and said 'I'm outta here."' I asked if he had talked to him. He sighed, "not yet." I am sure by now he has. For over 30 years he's been catching kids ...as though they were his own children . And every time I hear him talk, I marvel at his compassion , and I want to emulate him , want never to miss the people on the margin, who long for hope and for someone to believe in them . He gives them a whole new self-perception and in turn an other-direction. Then, as my wife's mentor, Judge Damon J. Keith spoke at lunch I could hear the echo. Not one off the walls but an echo in my memory's halls. He talked to Jennifer's mentee and my young mentee about what it was like to grow up black, without professionals as role models, and how he felt a pounding, driving obligation to help others. For he had made it, because people believed in him, gave him a boost up, and so he said , in turn, "never believe there's anything you can't do. if you set your mind to it." As Fr. Canfield has rescued so many lost kids, Judge Keith has launched others to careers of both achievement and service. The echo I heard was the voice of the Judge's mentee. For like so many of his cherished clerks, my wife had become a champion of possibility - a change in selfperception and then other-direction . A mentor and mentee had connected on a deep teaching of principle and their words were now interchangeable. Of Fr. Canfield and Judge Keith, I could draw 100 lessons. Let me offer this one: The Priest and the Judge were storytellers and story-listeners . Great leaders listen to others' stories and help make the connections that their experience has shown them . Great leaders tell their stories, and thus make meaning of the world about them . They take the great mass of experience and point, "see there ." They tell what it is they are pulling from the generation before them , what's the wheat and what's the chaff, what was hard earned and why it is of worth. And they connect it - sometimes like Fr. Canfield they have to sew it right in -- to the heart, life and experience of the mentee. They point to the mentee's quality (or failure to fully realize it), and thus they bring hope. If you want to mentor*, listen to other's stories and tell your own. Your stories- likely connected to the stories your mentored told and listened out of you .

From this fact, one could form many hypotheses -which, if I were destined for a Nobel Prize I might just do- but I'll skip the hypotheses and jump to the seemingly obvious conclusion: mentors can help others to succeed big time! I want to suggest two things that make a mentor a mentor, and one powerful result of mentoring. I do this in the dual hope that you will look to mentor others in work-type settings and that you would consider signing up to mentor a child who is in need of a stable, caring presence. I wrote briefly about Fr. Canfield last week. Let me tell you the story of how our mentorship began. But first a sentence of background: although I am often viewed by others as a very soft spoken person, the basketball court has always worked on me the way a full moon works on a werewolf; I step on the floor and immediately grow fangs of intensity. One day in 9th or 1Oth grade in a meaningless lunch time intramural game, I threw a bad pass, and in self-disgust hurled an unmentionable expletive to the high rafters of the old gym . For no reason, I looked to the sidelines, and there was Fr. Canfield quietly motioning me over. Dread covered me. "Mulhern," he said, "I expect more of you." And that was it. He did the two simply powerful things mentors do: he saw me as I was and he explained that he saw much more in me than I was being. If you want to be a great mentor, get a clear sense of who you think has great potential and (1) give them straightforward feedback that lets them know you are paying attention to them; and (2) let them know you see their great potential. Here's the upshot: because Fr. Canfield did these two things - saw me and called forth my potential I trusted him. Trusted him in two ways. First, I trusted his teachings. Mentors connect us to the wisdom of the ages: they allow us to not have to make every foolish mistake that's been made before (that's why they are so helpful in organizational politics, because they know the rules, especially the unwritten ones). I could trust his teachings, because I knew he had my welfare in mind . And , perhaps more important, I trusted his example. I emulated him. I did what he said, but even more, and as much unconsciously as consciously, I did what I saw him do. So, the next time one of your "students" is cursing on the court of life, think about calling them over, letting them know you see them and that you see so much more in them. I believe you will find it works the same in life at the job, as in the life of a child whose behaviors are screaming, "somebody please see me." You could turn them around completely.

I was sitting by the pool, after an afternoon in the steel mill, in the summer before I went off to college. Bayard, my eccentric-named and eccentric-thinking high school classmate walked up and with little fanfare asked, "Danny boy, do you know how to always be happy?" "No, Bayard," I dead-panned, "tell me how to always be happy." "Always be grateful" he said . Almost forty years later I remember the moment and Bayard's momentous idea. Mentoring can sometimes come from the most unexpected places. I functioned like a paid mentor when I worked with clients as their executive coach . Every time I began work with a new client, doubts would cross my mind: Will she find my ideas obvious? Will he find things too soft? Will she think I'm too theoretical? How can I work with him when he's twenty-five years my senior? Despite the initial fears, it seems I offered some value. I imagine the major reason I delivered value was that the client sought the value, was open to learning, expected something good from me. That is a lesson in itself: if you open your mind, you can learn from almost anyone! And if you as a mentor, hope someone will learn from you, then you had better pay attention to their receptivity: is their mind open? For instance, when someone is in the grips of strong emotions of anger, frustration, or grief- for example about a project that has become a disaster-- it is likely they aren't very receptive to your coaching. (And, by the way, unlike what many of us instinctively think, acknowledging their emotions does not mean you can't at an appropriate time, talk more analytically and constructively about why and how things went so wrong.) Look for the opening . In less high-charged emotional circumstances, if you wonder whether your mentee is receptive, you might simply ask him: "are you open to some feedback?" or "Can I share a thought with you about the work I've seen you do?" If they happen to say "No," well then, keep it to yourself. Another time will come. Do you gauge receptivity? Lastly. if you want to mentor. become open to being mentored, including by your mentee. Bayard was my peer - and truth be told at 18 I didn't think of him as my equal -- but he sure taught me wisely. Some of my coaching clients - who considered me their mentor - taught me more than I taught them . And my children, whom I work so hard to teach, teach me every day. If you coach well. it's in some measure proportional to your openness to learning from those you coach. (Indeed, the idea for today's RFL came from a reader, Michael Porter, at DTE who, in response to last week's RFL on mentoring, astutely suggested that I talk about the quality of reciprocity between mentor and mentee.) So, how open are you? From whom are you able to learn? How wide is mind's ear open to learning especially from those whom you are busy teaching? Have a week filled with learning!

This Resolution sets the criteria for this requirement and how it will be implemented. A. Definitions Volunteer: A person who renders aid, performs a serv1ce, or assumes an obligation voluntarily. Service: An act of assistance or benefit to another or others. B. Local Responsibility Each school board or board of directors of public school academies, or, at the local or private board's or home school's option, each high school principal, should establish a community service policy that includes criteria for qualifying community service activities. This allows the local, or private board or home school to better identify the activities in which students may already participate and the specific needs of each community. It is the intent of the Merit Board that the student renders aid or performs volunteer service that directly benefits someone other than the student. This community service should be separate from regular extracurricular activities such as athletics, band, choir, etc. Eligible activities may include (but are not limited to), reading to children in the elementary grades, tutoring, mentoring younger children, service learning, Meals on Wheels, Hospice, hospital volunteer, Habitat for Humanity or participating in activities that encourage middle school children to prepare for college. Other activities may include volunteer work through organizations such as local United Way agencies, Americ, Corp7 faith-based organizations, or other recognized local volunteer organizations. Any community service that the student may have already completed during his/her high school career is considered eligible. �2 C. Reporting Schools: For students identified as eligible for the Michigan Merit Award, the Michigan Merit Award Program must receive from the school a yes/no verification that the community service has been completed. The Merit Board directs the Merit administrative staff to enable the reporting to be done with existing reporting requirements already in place. Students: Each eligible student shall also verify with a yes/no that he/she has completed the required volunteer service. The Merit Board directs the Michigan Merit Program to enable the reporting to be done with the existing certification process already in place. An otherwise eligible student may not receive payment of his/her award until both verifications are received. D. Alternate Documentation The Merit Award Program will accept third party verification in cases where the local or private boards or high school principals or home school did not establish a policy, or if the student disagrees with the high school principal's failure or refusal to make certification of compliance for the student.

Governor Jennifer Granholm proposed the requirement in her 2004 State of the State address. "Whether helping senior citizens, mentoring young children , or cleaning up the environment, Merit Award winners will not only be examples of outstanding character, they will make Michigan a better place to live, work, and play," said Granholm . High schools students qualify for the $2 ,500 Michigan Merit Award if they meet or exceed state standards on Michigan Educational Assessment Program (MEAP) high school tests. Approximately 50 ,000 students qualify for Merit Awards each year. Merit Award funds are subject to annual appropriation . The Community Service requirement will begin with the graduating class of 2006. Many school districts already have community service programs in place. Those that do not will be expected to establish a new policy . "It is important that local districts and educators develop their own policies," said State Treasurer Jay B. Rising , chair of the Merit Award Board . "They know best the needs of their respective communities and the opportunities available to students." According to the Merit Board resolution , community service should be separate from regular extracurricular activities such as athletics, band, and choir. For each student to receive payment, the Michigan Merit Award Office must receive from the student and his or her high school , verification that the community service requirement has been fulfilled. This can be completed in conjunction with current Michigan Merit Award reporting requirements.
