GRANHOLM GOVERNOR OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR LANSING JOHN D . CHERRY, J R. LT . GOVERNOR January 31, 2003 Dear Colleague: As I wrap up my first month in office, I want to thank so many of you for welcoming me to my new role in one of the most important organizations in Michigan. As the State of the State address approaches and I prepare to address the people of this state, it was important to me to first share a few thoughts with all of you, my fellow state employees. As the leader of this team of more than 50,000 people, I am determined that we achieve greatness together. Here is a sense of what you can expect from me and what I expect from you. What we will do together. As Governor, I have laid out a vision for Michigan that focuses on protecting our state's families and educating our children. There is little any of us do as members of t he state government team that doesn't - at least in some way- impact one, or both, of those goals. With limited budget and staff resources , I am committed to making our priorities those services that protect our families and educate our children in the most tangible, direct ways. I have made serious commitments to the people on both counts, and "doing what I say I am going to do" is, for me , the heart of integrity. I cannot accomplish this vision without you. I have been working closely with the directors of all the state's departments to craft a comprehensive set of achievable goals for making our vision a reality. We have developed a list of action items- some of which will affect only your particular department; others will invite you to intensify your level of cross -departmental cooperation. Chief among my commitments to the people of Michigan is ensuring that our state government lives within its means. With an expected $1 .7 billion deficit in FY 2004- almost 20 percent of the state's $8.9 billion general fundwe will have to be enormously creative, disciplined , and hard working to maintain the outstanding service we now provide, and even to improve on what we do. I have begun to look at the Executive Office to find places to reorganize , to defer, and to tighten our belts in ways big and small. We're reusing supplies and letterhead from the previous administration, canceling subscriptions, turning in state cars, and reducing the number of executive office staff. The challenge is great, but we will find opportunities in it. GEORGE W. ROMNEY BUILDING • 111 SOUTH CAPITOL AVENUE • LANSING, MICHIGAN 48909 www.mlchlgan.gov �Page 2 January 31 , 2003 We will need to be creative, and we will need to be vigilant every day. I have asked our department directors to reach out to you, to tap your wisdom, to encourage you to help us manage this crisis, finding solutions and supporting each other in the process. In the coming weeks, I will be announcing a mechanism through which you can directly send us your suggestions for reducing our deficit. The potential savings you identify may allow us to preserve an important job, hire a great young person, and to do the vital things we do for our children, families , seniors, and students. How we will do it. I hope at the end of the next four years you will say, "These were the best four years of my work life." When I took office as the state's Attorney General four years ago, I often said that my most pleasant discovery was the phenomenal staff I had inherited. I find the same is true today. I have been mightily impressed and gratified by the professionalism, dedication, and quality of Michigan's state employees. Whether you serve as a state road inspector, a foste r care worker, an environmental permit reviewer, or a department's receptionist, public service is among the most noble of professions. Your work has not always been easy, and it will be, no doubt, even more challenging going forward. Ours is truly a great organization and , like all great organizations, we will be clear about where we are going - the vision - and about how we will act in getting there - the values. Together, we can make the coming years satisfying and positive if we all work in the following way: • Act with integrity. This means seeing our work as a duty entrusted to us by the citizens of Michigan. We owe them our best. • Be creative and innovative. We must approach old problems in new ways. • Challenge ourselves to excellence, achieving results we will all be proud of. I flat-out reject the notion that the private sector is inherently superior to the public. I know hundreds of extraordinary public servants, and I intend for you to feel proud and to hold your head high when you say, "I work for the State of Michigan." When we do this right, I expect others to be honored to meet you and grateful for your work on their behalf. • Treat each other with respect. Everyone's work matters, regardless of your role within our government. Everyone is a person and deserves respect. GEORGE W. ROMNEY BUILDING • 111 SOUTH CAPITOL AVENUE • LANSING. MICHIGAN 48909 www.mlchigan.gov �Page 3 January 31 , 2003 • Be inclusive in welcoming different people and varied ideas to the decision-making table. • Engage people in our great work, whether that means including citizen input in our policy decisions , treating citizens with the respect due them as our employers, or reaching out in a hundred ways to encourage businesses, churches, non-profits, and just plain folks to join with us in our efforts to make Michigan a great state. Especially in these tough times , we must reach out and involve. Please join me in creating (or further crafting, for I know there is greatness all about me) the best working environment a state government has ever seen. Working together, we'll make Michigan the best place in the country to live, work , and raise a family . Public attention naturally focuses on the leadership, the department directors who make up my cabinet. But in great organizations, everyone leads, everyone feels respected and feels like they have a stake, everyone contributes and feels a sense of ownership. That is what I am after. The most important leaders in any organization are those who create a culture of integrity, creativity, excellence, respect, inclusion, and engagement. You can choose to be one of those leaders. I hope you will. Sincerely, Jennifer M. Granholm Governor GEORGE W.

GRANHOLM, GOVERNOR Inaugural Address January 1, 2003 Governors Engler and Blanchard, Senators Levin and Stabenow, Lt. Governors Posthumus and Cherry, elected officials, my fellow Michiganians. We mark our lives with singular moments at which we stop and wonder. 46 years and 20 centuries ago, Julius Caesar rearranged the calendar and decreed that the new year would begin on this day, the first of January, named for the god Janus. To mark the occasion, Romans gave a new year's gift of a coin with Janus' mythic head. Janus, you see, had two faces-- one looking back, the other looking forward. Today, more than 2000 years later, this is still our new year's tradition: We reminisce. We resolve. We look back and look ahead. The god Janus was the god of entrances--of gates and of doors. Now, as I walk through this door that 44 men have passed through before me - over 167 years of this state's history- I must stop and honor all those who made it possible for me to even reach this door. I give thanks for my parents and my incredible family, my utterly selfless husband Dan, my great teachers, the activists, workers, and citizens who cared and who voted. I pay homage to the brave women and to the just men who blazed the trail to this door. In particular, I bow to those women who showed me how to rap upon its aged wood, who inch by inch cracked the door ajar, who looked in but were denied admittance. I pay respect to all whose faith in democracy, whose belief in equality and humanity cried out: "knock and the door shall be opened." My friends, because of you, the door has been forever opened. And for you young people in front of me, and by you young people, the door must be opened wider still, so that no characteristic -like gender, race, national origin, or religion- will ever again contain the secret codes that allow admission. And now that the door has been opened, my friends, you must come in. All of you. Come in to the halis of government. Come in to the living room of democracy. It is no accident that one of the chambers in our Capitol is called the House of Representatives. The house of government is your house. And the work in your house - in our house - must be the protection of the Michigan family and the education of Michigan' s children. As the Bible says, there are many rooms in my father' s house, and much work to be done, if our elders are to be dignified and our children's hopes magnified. We do not have the luxury of closing the door to anyone's talent. �The door has been opened, so bring in an air of innovation. The door has been opened, so breathe a renewed air of citizen patriotism, duty and service to one another. The door has been opened, so bring in an air of possibility and of hope. The door has been opened, and open it will rem am. Inside those doors of government, we will focus with tenacity on the needs of the Michigan family. We will focus on the grandmother I met in Southfield on Sunday who wonders which of her prescriptions will have to go unfilled. We will focus on the 3rd grade girl who wants to learn but whose potential still lies totally unseen. We will focus on the laid off worker I met in Flint on Saturday, who asks for nothing more than good work to support his family. We will focus on the mentally ill uncle who winds his way in search of shelter on a bitter winter day. And we will focus on the next generations of the Michigan family who look to us to protect our clean water and the unspoiled open spaces of these spectacular peninsulas. Government will be great and it will do great, but it will take much more than government to enhance our quality of life, especially in these tough, tight, trying economic times. It will take all of us working together as a family. And, as a family, I know that you will engage with me in setting our priorities, in deciding what is most vital for the public good. Understand, I am prepared to make the tough decisions, yet the house stands strong when the family thinks, talks, argues, resolves and ultimately works together. Citizenship in a democracy is not a spectator sport, particularly in times as tough as we are in. In his 1961 inaugural address, President John F. Kennedy called our nation to aspire to a new ethic of service. "Ask not what your country can do for you," he so famously said on that cold January day, "ask what you can do for your country." By necessity and because it is right, I will lead in these "Ask not" times. So work with me, my friends. If ten million of us asked what we could do for Michigan, what wonders would our reality hold tomorrow? Within the course of every day lie a thousand opportunities to give your life meaning through service to country and community. What can you do, in Flint or Frankfort, Monroe or Marquette, Kalamazoo, Clare or Kalkaska? What can you do? Answer the call for a new Michigan patriotism. For a local school that lacks the paint or power to fix the front door. For a child whose never been read to. For a senior who has no one to care whether she rises from bed and puts on her clothes. Answer the call, citizen patriots, answer it for your own soul that is made to care, to serve, and to belong. I am particularly asking our young people to lead the way. The young people sitting in this hall today are the future in our very midst. You, my young friends, hold in your hands the power to change the world. So ask not what power will do for you, ask what you will do with your power to impact our world. So now, with the doors of our destiny thrown open wide, I invite you to participate in the bending of history in some purposeful way. You were drawn here today. Someone rapped upon, tapped upon, whispered at your door. Someone, flesh or spirit, said, "Go, you need to be therethis moment, when history is made." Our history- the story that began with our founding �fathers and mothers- beckons to you, right now, and says quite simply, "You matter. Now, what to you shall matter?" What chapter of our history will you now write? I stand before you as living proof that the door is open to every single one of you in this room. Any one of us can get elected, and every one of us can elect to serve this Michigan family. So, like the god Janus, let us look forward with unapologetic dreams and the unblinking determination to fulfill them. Walk with me, talk with me, work with me, to light anew the flame of engagement, of action and of service to our Michigan family. May that flame cast its light in every comer of this our common home ... and may Michigan's flame reflect like a beacon for all of America to follow. Thank you, my fellow patriots, and God bless you. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

GRANHOLM , Governor MICHIGAN COMMUNITY SERVICE COMMISSION 1048 Pierpont, Suite 4 Lansing , Michigan 48913 Telephone: 517.335.4295 FAX: 517 .373.4977 www.michig an.gov/mcsc Chairperson Russell G. Mawby Executive Director Kyle Caldwell MEMORANDUM TO: Members of the Michigan Community Service Commission FROM: Kyle Caldwell, Executive Director DATE: February 7, 2003 RE: Executive Director's Report IC/v State and federal budget matters are the primary concerns to the efforts of the MCSC, yet staff continues on our original course of providing support to our national and community service grantees and the volunteers they engage. Still, we must examine the pressures looming over our work as the sluggish economy and the pending threat of war in Iraq conspire to starve the state and federal govemment revenue streams. While not dwelling on these pressures, this report will provide a financial context for the cun·ent operating envi ronment and share some of the tremendous efforts of our programs. Great Staff We are extremely fortunate to have a dedicated and hard-working staff. They have held up well under the pressure of transition and budget cuts. Many commissions across the country are experiencing tumover in staff and leadership and are struggling. You can be proud ofthe fine work your staffhas done in support of our state's volunteer community. That is not to say that the MCSC does not experience change. Our own Liz Scully is moving west to Colorado in April. Liz was an America's Promise Fellow with us prior to joining our staff full-time as a training and communications coordinator. She has served her community and her state admirably and we will miss her. It should be noted that a lot of what we now see on the MCSC website is Liz's work. Thank you, Liz! Also, Jessica Swindell, our America's Promise Fellow for this year, completed her term of service and is moving to Boston. Jessica did a great job supporting the work of the Communities of Promise in Michigan �and working on the transition of our Promise effort to the ConnectMichigan Alliance. We will miss her, but wish her well! AmeriCorps One of Michigan' s AmeriCorps members was asked to join First Lady Laura Bush at the President's State of the Union Address. Letmy Compton is a member of the AmeriCorps Oakland program, a full time college student completing his second year as an AmeriCorps member. As part of his service, Lenny tutors students in grades 1-3 in reading and writing at a Pontiac elementary school. He also works at PATH (Pontiac Area Transitional Housing), providing academic help to children in their after school program. CNN and local radio stations interviewed Lenny about his expenence. We are currently working to craft our AmeriCorps application for 2004 funding. Initial demand for funding next year exceeded $8 million. Staff is reviewing proposals for formula and competitive funding. We are currently considering more than 28 AmeriCorps proposals requesting $8,188,463 for 926 members (520 full-time and 406 part-time or reduced part-time). The current projected FTE rate (the CNCS standard for grant lin1its and efficiency is $12,800) is $12,311. These numbers will likely change as the application process proceeds and modifications are made to the various applications. The enrollment freeze remains in place and will continue until the Corporation for National and Community Service is able to reconcile the commitments and resources in the National Service Trust (the trust created to support the Education Awards). There is more provided on this issue in the later portion of this report that focuses on the federal budget. Learn & Serve - Service-Learning In addition to working with our 4 7 Learn and Serve School- and Community-based grantees and six CHESP communities, the staff convened the Service-Learning Youth Committee (SLYC)--students involved with the programs we fund--to put together their agenda for the year. SLYC members will create service projects and speak publicly about how service-learning works. RMC research has provided their preliminary data on research the MCSC commissioned on the potential links between service-learning and MEAP scores. The very preliminary indications are somewhat surprising in that the traditional models we often site as successful uses of service-learning (i.e. environmental programs focusing on science) were not examples cited as making statistically significant impacts on MEAP scores. Staff will more closely examine this research for indicators of future research agendas . �State Farm Insurance has contacted the MCSC to discuss ways that it can advance service-learning in Michigan . State Farm Insurance supports service-learning and youth service nationally through its Excellence in Education program that comprises nine focus areas to help students achieve and become productive members of society. As an initial step, State Fmm has sponsored ten teachers to attend the 7111 Annual Institute on Service-Leaming at Central Michigan University on February 13 - 14. The MCSC is partnering with the Michigan Campus Compact to host the Institute on Service-Learning. The Institute brings together faculty, staff, students, and administrators from around the country to share service-learning ideas, practices, and theory. Our own Tom Watkins, Superintendent for the Michigan Department of Education, will be a featured speaker along with a number of national education experts. The Service-Leaming Work Group met via conference call with the MCSC staff to discuss the future ofLeam & Serve programming in Michigan. The members discussed the need for a new three-year plan to tap the Leam & Serve funding, the current and future relationship with the Michigan Department of Education, and primary goals for the fuhrre of service-leaming in Michigan. The members agreed that the staff should focus on providing funding to take service-leaming "deeper" into schools and districts, gathering data that can communicate the effectiveness of servicelearning, and developing more champions who can extol the program. Volunteer Investment Grants (VIG) This is the MCSC's only program funded solely on State of Michigan funds. As such, it is the program at greatest risk in light of the state budget woes. Initially the VIG provided $1 million annually for endowments to support volunteer centers. Today, that total annual appropriation has shrunk to $659,095. In addition, grm1t agreements for approved funding are being withheld by the Michigan Department of Career Development (our fiscal agency) in anticipation of the budget cuts the Govemor will be calling for in an executive order due out next week. This is providing a serious challenge for volunteer centers. These grantees are required to endow their match prior to receiving the state funds. Some have already transferred what might normally have been used as operational dollars to their endowments in hopes of using the state funds for day-to-day operational expenses. We are making every effort to communicate with grantees on this hold and hope that the budget axe will spare this program from catastrophic reductions. Fede ral Budget Congress remains unable to agree on a final budget for the current fiscal year (which will end on September 30, 2003). As of the date of this report, Congress passed another continuing resolution (an agreement to continue funding the federal govemment at the previous year's numbers) that will expire on Friday, February 7, 2003 . A conference committee (representatives from both the House and the Senate) is �, suppose to work out an agreement on an omnibus spending bill that was passed by the Senate last month that must now be reconciled with the House. It is expected that some $15 million of Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) funding will be transferred from programming funds to the Educational Trust in hopes of making up for the shortfall that has initiated the current AmeriCorps enrollment freeze . We still do not know if this will be sufficient to cover the short fall as we still do not know the actual scope and financial figures for the Trust (i.e. How many members are enrolled at what cost, how much is cunently in the Trust, and what is the gap between comn1itments and resources?). We are told by the CNCS that there is enough funding to cover current enrollees, but not enough for any additional members- the rationale behind the current enrollment freeze . Debate continues on how the Congress will proceed. One theory speculates that the Congressional conference committee will come to an agreement by the February i 11 deadline. That is an optimistic view. The second theory holds that Congress will pass another continuing resolution and try to work out the budget conference committee differences. This is more in line with recent past practice. The third, and more alam1ing theory posits that the Congress will pass a seven-month continuing resolution that ties the entire federal government to last year's figures . This is alam1ing to national service because that would mean that the enrollment freeze would continue to the end of the fiscal year as the CNCS is not able (statutorily) to transfer funds from operations or programming line items to the Trust. For the next fiscal year, the picture is a little better. The President's 2004 budget (October 1, 2003 , to September 30, 2004) calls for an increase in the number of AmeriCorps members to 75,000, an increase of $45 million to the National Service (Education Award) Trust and an increase in program support funding to VISTA programs. Unfortunately, the President's budget calls for a decrease in program funding for AmeriCorps, Senior Corps, and essentially flat lines funds available for state commission and CNCS operations. Learn & Serve funding is also flat funded at $43 million- the same figure that has been appropriated for the past seven or more years . High pressure will be placed on states and local grantees to bring on more AmeriCorps members with fewer program and operating dollars. Congress and the Whitehouse will take up this budget proposal once the crisis over the current federal budget is concluded. Office of the Inspector General Audit The MCSC staff continues to gather infonnation to close out our federal audit by the Inspector General (OIG) for the Corporation for National and Community Service. As I mentioned to you in my email, the OIG has issued a report on the current status of our audit that states that only 2.2% of the total funding examined is being questioned. Questioned means that either the funding expenditures are not documented or that their use was not in accordance with their regulations. The vast majority of the 2.2% has been documented, but not in time for the report. We are working to document the remaining grantee expenditures and enrollment records. The important item to note is �, that there were no system weaknesses noted. Having said that, we are still examining our current systems to ensure that we are improving our oversight and monitoring techniques. State of Michigan Budget Governor Granholm is expected to announce her budget for fiscal year 2004 in March, but she is also expected to issue an executive order this month spelling out cuts that will be necessary to deal with the current year's shortfall. No organization is being spared consideration according to the Governor' s Office. The MCSC has been tapped for a number of different potential cuts including the funding for the Volunteer Investment Grants and the Tobacco Settlement Funds channeled to the Council of Michigan Foundations for local community foundations to conduct programs targeting youth and senior health issues. So far our ArneriCorps, Learn & Serve, and operational dollars from the CNCS have been unaffected since these are federal dollars. However, the MCSC cannot maintain those federal funds if we are not able to provide the match necessary to apply for and draw down those funds . The MCSC currently only receives just under $1.8 million in State of Michigan funds . These funds leverage (allow us to gamer) $7 .2 million in federal funds. This is a large return on the state's investment and excludes the value of the service our volunteers provide to local communities. It will be important for the Michigan Legislature to understand the importance and value of this investment. State of the State On Wednesday February 5, 2003 , Governor Granholm delivered her first State of the State Address. Related to the work of the MCSC, the Governor calls for: Citizen Engagement "Our citizen engagement is undeniable. Unemployment is up, but that didn't stop nearly 85 percent of our fellow citizens from giving to a charity in the last year. The stock market has been battered for over two years, yet during that time, Michiganians created some 200 new charitable foundations - finding new ways to solve old problems. And more than a third of our fellow citizens found time to voltmteer last year, building webs of community and striking a spark of hope for those in shadowy comers." Foundation Involvement "Finally, I will ask Michigan's foundation c01mnunity, which has already supported important work on this issue [early childhood education and school preparedness] in our state, to do even more. We are grateful to our foundations for the support they have given the Ready to Succeed Pminership, the organization that has spearheaded the creation of early childhood learning coalitions across our state. And I know their commitment to this issue remains strong." �Volunteers Helping in Early Readiness "Our youngest adults hold the greatest hope, and we will tap their energy, also . We will team high schools with early childhood centers to supply volunteers to read to children for a half an hour a day. It's already being done in districts like Traverse City and it's coming soon in places like Kent and Wayne Counties." Mandatory Service as Requirement for Graduation "In the coming months, I will ask all of our school districts to volunteer to make 40 hours of community service a requirement for graduation from their high schools. We want to raise young people who embrace service to others as a way oflife." Homeland Security and Citizen Preparedness "I will create the position of Advisor for Homeland Security within the Department of Military and Veterans Affairs to more directly link our security efforts here in Michigan with the country's defense preparations in Washington. We will be ready to answer the nation's call to service at a moment's notice." The task before the staff and commissioners is to find links between the existing and future MCSC initiatives and the Governor's agenda. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Mawby Executive Director Kyle Caldwell MEMORANDUM TO: Michigan Community Service Commission FROM: Paula Kaiser, Deputy Michigan Community Service Commission RE: Staff Recommendations for Michigan's Volunteer Investment Grants, Michigan's AmeriCorps Promise Fellow Grants and Learn and Serve- Michigan Grants DATE: December 16, 2002 Dire~ Michigan's Volunteer Investment Grants For FY 03, the Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) has $780,100 available compared to the original $1 million dollars to support Michigan's Volunteer Investment Grants. The reduction in the amount of funds available is a result of the state budget cuts. We initially believed that $857,300 would be the allocated amount for FY 03 but additional budget cuts have been made leaving us with $780,100. In September, the MCSC issued the Michigan' s Volunteer Investment Grants application guidelines. All former and existing grantees received the guidelines. In addition, the MCSC sent a copy of the guidelines to all of the Community Foundations, United Ways, Volunteer Centers, and Michigan Campus Compact affiliates. The applications were due to the MCSC on November 12, 2002. We received 16 applications requesting $837,095. The applications were peer reviewed on November 22, 2002. The peer reviewers recommended 13 of the applications for a total of$759,095. The staff reviewed the applications and is recommending 12 applications be funded in the amount of$659,095. The staff did not recommend that the Volunteer Center of Northwest Michigan be funded based on the overall quality of the application. Recommendation #1 The staff recommends funding for the following applicants at their requested level pending satisfactory completion of application revisions: �Applicant Requested Amount Albion Volunteer Service Organization Greater Ottawa Co. United WayNolunteer Ctr. Heart of West Michigan United WayNol. Ctr. Hillsdale County United Way Lenawee United Way and Volunteer Center United Way of Chippewa County United Way Volunteer Connections University of Michigan- Flint Volunteer Center ofBattle Creek Volunteer Center of Otsego County Volunteer Center of Southwest Michigan Volunteer Muskegon Total Recommended Amount $50,000 $50,000 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $100,000 $34,095 $34,095 $60,000 $60,000 $45,000 $45,000 $25,000 $25,000 $25,000 $25,000 $100,000 $100,000 $25,000 $25,000 $60,000 $60,000 $35,000 $35,000 $659,095 $659,095 Recommendation #2 The staff does not recommend funding for the following applicants: Applicant Requested Amount Recommended Amount Dickinson Volunteer Services $25,000 $0 United Way and Volunteer Center of Clare County $28,000 $0 Volunteer Center ofMid-Michigan $25,000 $0 Volunteer Center ofNorthwest Michigan $100,000 $0 Total $178,000 $0 To date, the MCSC has $121 ,005 of unallocated funds for FY03. Therefore, we will conduct a second application process immediately and present the staff funding recommendations at the 2 �February board meeting. Michigan 's AmeriCorps Promise Fellows For FY 2003, the MCSC has $155,400 in CNCS funding to support 13 Michigan's AmeriCorps Promise Fellows for Michigan's Communities of Promise. Given that FY 2003 is the last year of the Promise Fellow Program, the MCSC decided that only 2002 operating sites would be eligible for funding in FY 2003. The application guidelines were sent to all eligible applicants in September. A total of six applications were received on November 8, 2002 requesting a total of $128,150 to support 11 fellows . The MCSC staff conducted a staff review of all applications. Applicants were provided written feedback that included any necessary revisions. All revisions were due to MCSC on November 27, 2002. All revisions were reviewed and the MCSC staff makes the following recommendation: Staff Recommendations Renewal Applicants Thesa tff recommends renewa1 fund'mg, at the request ed amountfior thfill e o ow app.rtcant s: Legal Applicant Funding #of Fellows Funding Requested Requested Recommended Alpena District Health Department 4 $46,000 $46,000 Capital Area Youth Alliance $11,650 $11,650 1 City of Grand Haven 1 $11,650 $11,650 $34,950 Ionia County Intermediate School $34,950 3 District $11,650 $11 ,650 Pathways to Healthy Living 1 $11,650 United Way ofMontcalm 1 $11,650 $128,150 $128,150 11 Total Learn and Serve -Michigan Community-Based Program The MCSC has approximately $120,000 in unallocated funds to support community-based service-learning. At the MCSC board retreat in September, the Learn and Serve work group recommended the staff consider funding youth serving organizations with broad-based coverage throughout the state to implement service-learning throughout their various networks. The MCSC approached the YMCA of the USA and Michigan State University 4- H Extension about this idea since they both have had significant experience with community-based service-learning. The staff felt it was important to pilot the concept of providing larger grants to state-wide youth serving organizations. Both organizations were receptive to the idea. The YMCA ofthe USA will be submitting their application in January. MSU 4- H submitted their application on December 9, 2002. Please see the appendix for a description of the proposed program. Upon review of the MSU 4 - H application, the MCSC staff makes the following recommendation: 3 �The staff recommends provisional funding, at the requested amount for the follow applicant: Applicant Requested Amount Recommended Amount Michigan State University- 4H Extension $50,000 $50,000 Total $50,000 $50,000 Provisional funding is being recommended because the MCSC has requested that the applicant submitted a revised application. The revised application is due on December 20, 2002. The staff will review the revised application. Assuming the applicant addresses all of the revisions, they will be awarded the grant. School-Based Program Last year the MCSC approved a grant of$27,000 to Learning to Give, sponsored by the Council of Michigan Foundations, to develop a comprehensive program to integrate Learning to Give into each school district in Muskegon County. The goal is to have each school district in Muskegon County teaching Learning to Give lessons at each grade level within a three-year period. Learning to Give submitted a renewal application in the amount of $27,000 to continue to the implementation of the district-wide program. Please see the appendix for a description of the proposed program. Upon review of the application, the MCSC staff makes the following recommendation: The staff recommends renewal funding, at the requested amount for the follow applicant: Applicant Requested Amount Recommended Amount Learning to Give $27,000 $27,000 Total $27,000 $27,000 �Appendix - Program Descriptions Michigan's Volunteer Investment Grants Normally, we would provide a paragraph description for each applicant that is being recommended for funding. Given the nature of the Michigan 's Volunteer Investment Grant Program all grantees are required to do the same thing. Therefore, a general paragraph describing the program is offered. Michigan's Volunteer Investment Grants (VIG) are granted to community-based nonprofit organizations that designate and support an agency to function as a volunteer resource center. VIG's are used to establish local endowment funds that will support community volunteer activities in perpetuity. Michigan Volunteer Investment Grants range from $25,000 to $100,000 and require match funds. Michigan's Volunteer Investment Grants meet three goals: 1. The grants support and increase volunteerism and community service initiatives in local communities. 2. The grants leverage local funds for permanent agency endowments housed within a community foundation that will help sustain the activities of a community volunteer resource center. 3. The grants encourage, facilitate, and enhance community partnerships that support volunteerism. Michigan's AmeriCorps Promise Fellow Program Normally, we would provide a paragraph description for each applicant that is being recommended for funding. Given the nature of the Michigan's AmeriCorps Promise Fellow Program all grantees are required to do the same thing. Therefore, a general paragraph describing the program is offered. Michigan's AmeriCorps Promise Fellows are committed individuals who serve throughout the state to build a better future for Michigan's youth. Promise Fellows are placed in Communities of Promise and help bring the Five Promises of America's Promise- mentor, protect, nurture, teach, serve- to local children. Over the course of one year, each fellow will be expected to: • • • • • • • • provide 155 youth with all Five Promises, provide 155 youth with at least one of the Five Promises, develop local resource materials and update the community inventory of serves for youth, convene (at a minimum) quarterly meetings of all local partners supporting the local Community of Promise activities, hold one local issue-based forum for each Community of Promise, gamer at least five new or expanded commitments in support of the Five Promises, identify and involve five new or expanded partners for the local Community of Promise, and recruit at least 50 individuals to volunteer their time in support of the five Promises (in smaller communities, sites may opt to recruit 25 individuals that make significant time commitments in support of the five promises). 5 �Each of these applicants have had at least one year of experience with the program, and have developed significant capacity towards America' s Promise in their local Communities of Promise. Learn and Serve- Michigan Community-based Program $50,000 Michigan State University 4-H Extension The Michigan State University Extension 4-H Youth Development initiative will engage 150 4H staff in training on the methods of community-based service-learning. 100 teens will also be trained and will then provide a total of 5,000 hours of service-learning in their communities. The initiative will provide access to information about community-based service-learning to approximately 10,000 youth and adults in all 83 Michigan counties through service-learning activities, state and regional training and dissemination of educational information via traditional and electronic media. Learn and Serve -Michigan School-based Program Learning to Give- Council of Michigan Foundations $27,000 Learning To Give (LTG) sponsored by the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF) seeks $27,000 in grant support from the Michigan Community Service Commission to infuse the teaching of philanthropy and the use of service-learning into the core academic curriculum of Muskegon County K-12 schools. The grant will support an instructional consultant based at the Muskegon County Intermediate School District (MISD), who will be involved with teacher professional development, onsite consultation, classroom material support, coaching, and assisting classroom teachers to implement their own evaluations of the project. The proposal intends to build the practice of service-learning so that it occurs at each grade level each year. It will serve as a test model for the delivery of service-learning coordination/consultation at the ISD level. 6 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Pfeiler, CNCS Michigan RE: New Interest in Senior Corps at the Michigan Community Service Commission RSVP heard this information already at their fall meeting, but I'm sending this to you because there wasn't tim e to discuss it at your fall meeting. The !"1ichigan Community Service Commission meeting in September involved several small work group meetings which .examined each of the national service programs and identified areas where Senior Corps and the Commission might share information, coordinate activities, and support each other. ' Senior Corps was one of the work groups, co-chaired by Commissioner Meg Smith (RSVP Monroe) and Commissioner Pat Ryan O'Day (Marquette). I sat in on the meeting in my usual ex-officio manner Our work group examined the enclosed "Suggestions of Shared Interests." These actually then turned into recommendations that the Commission adopted for action this year. Thus, you will see that the work group plans to ask you and to ask the Commissioners to make some efforts to get acquainted where possible during the corning year. Letters and information will follow soon. Since that meeting, the Citizen Corps has been taking a little shape; members will be nominated soon; we expect a Senior Corps project director will be nominated. Fi nally, the Commission revised its vision and mission stdternents, which are both now more inclusive of persons of all ages. lf you look on the back of the page, we've listed t he mission statements for fuur of the maj~)r volunteer-service encouragers tn Michigan .

With this in mind, a recommendation for carrying this program forward was included in the meeting packet that was distributed on Friday, December 6, 2002. MCSC Marketing Plan The Marketing Plan continues to be implemented. Focus since our last meeting has been on developing communication tools (such as the program profiles you have been receiving via email and the key information binder distributed at today' s meeting), media training for grantees, and communications training for staff. The contract with Rx Coaching has expired. As we are well into the plan implementation, we do have plans to renew the contract at this time. 2 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

After juggling work, family, friends, and hobbies, finding a cause or organization to volunteer with can be difficult. To address this need, communities have been creating local collaborations to help volunteers find their perfect fit. These collaborations and organizations are often called "volunteer resource centers." Volunteer resource centers work closely with the organizations in their communities to recruit, train, place, manage, and recognize volunteers. These services require resources and support. The Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) recognizes the value of helping communities support volunteers. Annually, approximately $860,000 of state funding is provided to local volunteer resource centers and other volunteer collaborations through Michigan's Volunteer Investment Grants (VIG). These competitive awards range from $25,000 to $100,000 each year. The funds are used to create local endowments that support volunteer resource centers and related activities. A $1 to $1 match is required. Currently, the MCSC provides $860'000 in VIG funds to 17 volunteer resource centers that provide services in 25 counties. �2002 Michigan's Volunteer Investment Grants OSCODA • WEXFORD OGEMAW LAKE OSCEOLA CLARE GLADWIN NEWAYGO MECOSTA ISABEUA MIDLAND • MONTCALM GRATlOT IONIA CUNTON • • • A VIG funded volunteer resource center serves this county • A VIG funded volunteer resource center is located in this county MISSAUKEE ALLEGAN BARRY • EATON • OAKLAND INGHAM UVINGSTON • • • • • • • CALHOUN CASS ST.

How old are they? What business was originally in them? lfbuildings could talk, the stories they could tell! Meet Elsie McNiel of Greenville, who has been volunteering at the Flat River Historical Museum for more than 30 years. Elsie has a phenomenal mind full of historical information concerning the early homes, businesses, and organizations in the Greenville area. She keeps track of businesses and organizations that are coming and going, all without any compensation and certainly without any fanfare. She has volunteered over 23,400 hours. That equals 2,925 eight-hour days, or better than 11 years of full-time work! Insert Elsie's Photo Elsie became interested in the museum after moving from Detroit to Greenville in 1968. The museum was within walking distance from the home she lived in with her husband and two children. She joined the Greenville Historical Society that same year and began volunteering at the Museum when it opened in 1972. "Elsie has been our true north, our compass at the museum," said Linda Collins, Museum president. ''I wish every communi had a volunteer just like her." Elsie maintains a low profile-quiet, attentive, and soft-spoken. If she doesn't have the answer to a question she is asked, she will find it for you. Her dedication and perseverance for the history of Greenville are her gifts to the community. When asked why she enjoys volunteering, she smiled and said, "It's a sense of accomplishment. As a volunteer you are doing something for somebody else besides yourself. And it's better than watching television." Elsie is one of many volunteers at the Flat River Historical Museum, an organization that relies heavily on volunteers to meet its mission. Many of the volunteers find their way to the Museum through Volunteer Connections ofMontcalm County.

Welcome and Introduction - Chairperson Mawby The meeting was called to order at 12:33 p.m. by Chairperson Mawby. Chairperson Mawby welcomed everyone to the meeting and asked everyone to introduce themselves. II. Review & Approval of September 12- 13,2002 Minutes- Chairperson Mawby Chairperson Mawby asked for any corrections to the minutes from the September 12- 13, 2002 meeting being none, Chairperson Mawby asked for a motion to approve. Commissioner Smith moved to approve the September 12- 13, 2002 minutes. Commissioner O'Day seconded the motion and the minutes were approved. Motion passed unanimously. Ill. Standing Committee Reports- Chairperson Mawby A. Board Development Committee - Chairperson Mawby 1. Kyle Caldwell welcomed the new commissioners and guests to the commission meeting. (Ken Bensen, Chandra Oden, and Rani Bahadur). B. Executive Committee- Chairperson Mawby (Approval Item) 1. Review Executive Committee November 22, 2002 meeting 2. Recommendations for the MCSC Officers and Standing Committees (approval item) Chairperson Mawby went over the new MCSC Officers and Standing Committees noting the new Commissioners on each committee. The members of the Executive Committee are Russ Mawby, Chair; Rob Collier, Vice Chair; Vivian Pickard, Michelle Engler, and Meg Smith. The members of the Board Development Committee are Nancy Lenz, Kari Pardoe, Tom Watkins, and Don Newport. The members of the Outreach and Communications Committee are Pat O'Day, Co-Chair; Vivian Pickard, Co-Chair; Kari Pardoe, Karen Aldridge Eason, Ken Bensen, and A1 Swain. The members of the Michigan Youth Progressive Action Council are Kari Pardoe, Advisor; Alex Garnepudi, Advisor; and Debbie Macon, Advisor. Commissioner Smith moved to approve the recommendations for MCSC Officers and Standing Committees. Commissioner O'Day seconded the 2 �motion and the recommendation were approved. Motion passed unanimously. 3. Staff recommendations granting additional powers to the Executive Committee to approve the MCSC's grant application submissions to the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) with the consent of the full commission at its next regularly scheduled meeting. (approval item) Chairperson Mawby and Kyle Caldwell explained the current situation with the Corporation and National and Community Service (CNCS). The MCSC is "currently in limbo", CNCS has not had their budget approved by Congress and as a results not currently in a position to make any allocations. The MCSC Michigan's AmeriCorps application would be due to the CNCS before the MCSC regularly scheduled meeting date and therefore would need approval before submission, at short notice. The staff would like the Executive Committee to have the power to approve these submissions with the approval of the full Commission at a later date. The staff would like to make this a standing policy instead of an ad hoc policy as it has been in the past. Commissioner O'Day moved to approve the recommendations for the Executive Committee to approve the MCSC's grant application submissions. Commissioner West seconded the motion and the recommendations were approved. Motion passed unanimously. 4. Staff request that the MCSC approve staff recommendations for criteria to determine acceptance or denial of AmeriCorps Sustainability Policy Appeals. (approval item) Kyle Caldwell explained the recommendation for approval of the criteria for AmeriCorps sustainability. AmeriCorps grants are approved on a three-year funding cycle. They are renewed based upon successful completion of their goals and objectives and meeting the reporting criteria. After three years they have to re-compete for funding. In the past, the grantee could keep re-competing every cycle without a cap - no reduction of the MCSC support, thus the grantee has not become self-sufficient and the MCSC is unable to support new programs. Staff proposed that over nine years the MCSC would gradually reduce the amount of federal funds so that eventually the program would only be funded for the member support costs, being the stipend and the education award. This policy would also include an appeal statement for grantees that cannot leverage the necessary funds for their administrative costs. Appeals will be decided upon case by case. Commission O'Day asked if the policy would be retroactive. Kyle Caldwell explained that the grantees have been made aware of this expectation and that this just gives staff a way of managing appeals - the 3 �grantee would like to continue the program, but they are unable to come up with all of the necessary funds. Commissioner Makki asked if the decisions would be approved by the Commission. Kyle Caldwell then explained that you are only giving the staff the criteria under which we would make a recommendation to the board not the power to approve. Commissioner Kwak asked how the staff came up with the nine-year mark. Kyle Caldwell explained that a group of former grantees and other experts from the field came together and discussed with staff this policy and this is what they recommended. Commissioner Newport asked two questions: One, how much of our dollars are committed to renewal versus new andre-competes and second how much of the grant is spent on administration/overhead? Kyle Caldwell and Paula Kaiser explained that they could not give Commissioner Newport an exact figure, but due to a glitch at the CNCS all of our current MCSC Michigan's AmeriCorps grantees are recompeting this year and that not more than 20-25% of the money is spent on administration of the program. Commissioner Makki moved to approve the recommendations for the criteria to determine acceptance or denial of AmeriCorps Sustainability Policy Appeals. Commissioner Newport seconded the motion and the recommendations were approved. Motion passed unanimously. 5. Recommendation to empower staff to approve or deny any Michigan's AmeriCorps program's request to over-enroll members. (approval item) Kyle Caldwell explained that some of the AmeriCorps programs, after years of experience, know that they have "x" amount of members stipended and, on average, "y" amount of members drop out every year. The grantee would like the opportunity to over enroll the "y'' amount of members so that they will, in theory, end up with all of their stipended members. So far, the policy has been allowed by the CNCS. The MCSC staff request that the MCSC empower the staff to approve or deny any Michigan's AmeriCorps program's request to over-enroll members. The staff feel that it is important that this privilege be granted on a case by base basis and not be automatic. Commissioner Macon wanted to know when the commission would know that the grantee has overenrolled and also how would the grantee find out about this process. Kyle Caldwell and Paula Kaiser explained that the way the commission would find out if the grantee overenrolled would be through the Web Based Reporting System (WBRS) and the grantees would receive a Michigan's AmeriCorps Policies and Procedures guide letting them know of that policy and the steps they would need to take to obtain permission to over enroll members. 4 �Commissioner W esaw moved to approve the recommendations to empower staff to approve or deny any Michigan's AmeriCorps program 's request to over-enroll members. Commissioner Swain seconded the motion and the recommendations were approved. Motion passed unanimously. C. Outreach and Communications Committee- Chairperson Mawby 1. Recommendations for Governor' s Service Awards Program Commissioner O'Day discussed the recommendation for the Governor' s Service Awards (GSA) Program. She mentioned that this new process would be implemented for transition purposes. We would recognize a GSA volunteer once a month. Commissioner Macon stated that she has some concerns with the process. Please consider one to three specific categories a month that would allow an entire sector of volunteerism to focus their energy on those topics. Commissioner Macon would like to see a finalist component too. Perhaps have one deadline or have two to three deadlines through out the year. Commissioner Oden mentioned that it looked like one of the Governor' s Service Awards program issues is funding. She asked if we looked at other avenues for funding? If so, would we like to go to the original program model? Chairperson Mawby answered that question by mentioning that one of the major components of the Governor's Service Awards is the Governor and First Spouse' s participation. We are hoping that the new Governor will embrace this program. If that is the case then we would be able to go back to the original program model. Commissioner Pickard mentioned that if we do indeed go back to the original format and need funding, GM may be interested in offering support. There was some discussion between Commissioner Wesaw, Commissioner Swain, and Kyle Caldwell about postponing the awards program to this fall. This would give the new Governor some time to embrace the program. Commissioner Smith moved to approve the recommendations for the transitional Governor's Service Awards process. Commissioner Macon seconded the motion and the recommendations were approved for a transitional period only. Motion passed unanimously. 2. Commissioner Communication Tools 5 �Mary Grill walked through the Key Information Binder which contains information such as: funding information on each program, program talking points, program locations, Commissioner and staff information, etc. D. Report of the MCSC Designees to the ConnectMichigan Alliance Board of Trustees - Chairperson Mawby 1. Update on ConnectMichigan Alliance Endowment Campaign Chairperson Mawby asked Dr. John Lore to give the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) update. Dr. Lore gave an update on the fundraising activities. Mr. Lore distributed copies of a CMA gift snapshot to everyone, which gave a breakdown of the money being raised and the money that has already been raised. Dr. Lore also gave an update on Ms. Estrada, former Executive Assistant for the MCSC. He stated that she is doing an outstanding job. IV. Executive Director's Report- Kyle Caldwell A.

A motion to approve the staff recommendations was made by Commissioner Oden and seconded by Commissioner Smith. Motion passed unanimously with Commissioner Newport abstaining from the vote. Ms. Kaiser explained the pilot idea of having a program to support community-based service-learning. This idea developed at the MCSC board retreat in September. The Learn and Serve work group recommended the staff consider funding youth serving organizations with board-based coverage throughout the state to implement service-learning throughout their various networks. The staff recommended provisional funding for Michigan State University- 4H Extension in the amount of $50,000 and renewal funding for Learning to Give in the amount of $27,000. A motion to approve the staff recommendations was made by Commissioner O'Day and seconded by Commissioner Swain.

Michigan Citizen Corps Council Mr. Caldwell explained the Michigan Citizen Corps Council, a new initiative that was brought on by the events of 9/11 and the President's call to action. On November 18, 2002 the Governor appointed the Michigan Citizen Corps Council, which will serve as the Commission's advisory committee for this initiative. They will make recommendations and report to the MCSC on how the MCSC can get involved in Homeland Security efforts and help to create support for local Citizen Corps councils. Michael Bouchard, Sheriff of Oakland County, is the Chair of this advisory committee. Mr. Caldwell also explained that the initiative was awarded a little over $500,000 in Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) dollars. To conduct this 7 �program and to do a CERT training, which is a citizen's emergency response team training - a California model of training that came about after the earthquakes years ago. D. State and National Issues Mr. Caldwell passed out an announcement from the CNCS which declared a freeze for all AmeriCorps enrollments because the AmeriCorps Trust was overcornrnitted. Mr. Caldwell explained some of the reasons this happened. The freeze will stay in place until either Congress appropriates more funds or Congress allows CNCS to transfer funding from another source into the trust. Michigan has a few programs that missed the will be unable to enroll members until the freeze is lifted. V. New Business A.

Through service-learning, young people take what they learn and put it into action in the community. Service-learning is a way of teaching that connects learning with meaningful service to the community. A recent study ofMichigan schools shows that 39 percent of public schools participate in service-learning, while 88 percent participate in general community service projects. Learn and Serve- Michigan is a grant program that supports schools and community organizations in providing service-learning opportunities during and after school. There are two types of Learn and Serve -Michigan grants: • • School-Based programs have their roots in the classroom. Teachers tie service-learning projects into the regular curriculum. These grants are given to k-12 schools. Community-Based programs are led by local nonprofit organizations. These organizations incorporate learning opportunities into service projects that take place during non-school hours. Nonprofit organizations are the recipients of these grants. Service-learning has been shown to: • • • Increase motivation to learn, Lower drop out rates, and Build critical thinking and problem solving skills. Learn and Serve- Michigan currently provides $725,000 to 36 school-based programs and $160,000 to 11 community-based programs. Last year, these programs involved more than 33,000 students in service-learning activities throughout Michigan. �2002-2003 Learn and Serve - Michigan IRON • DICKINSON • WEXFORD LAKE OSCEOlA ALLEGAN CASS MISSAUKEE OGEMAW ClARE GLADWIN • • • •• • •• • • • • BARRY ST. JOSEPH BRANCH Hll..l..SIW..E l.ENAWEE �MICHIGAN COMMUNilY SERVICE STUDENTS MOUNT CAMPAIGN AGAINST SECONDHAND SMOKE COMMISSION Students at ACE High School are concerned ... for themselves, their friends, and their families. Tobacco use is the single leading preventable cause of death in the United States. Although cigarette smoking nationwide among high school students is declining, approximately 80% of tobacco users begin smoking before the age of 18. If this trend continues, approximately 5 million children living today will die prematurely because they began to smoke cigarettes during adolescence. What really got the attention of the ACE High School students were the effects of secondhand smoke. Research has shown that smoke from the smokers around them causes disease, including lung cancer, in healthy nonsmokers. Although they may make the decision not to smoke, they could still be at risk. Rather than sit around and complain, they decided to do something. Led by juniors Shaun Bryan and Nicole Mangan, and senior Amanda Bjorkman, the students developed and produced media materials educating Iron County citizens on the problems of secondhand smoke. You Have a Choice, They Don'tEffects ofSecond Hand Smoke was developed as part of an academic servicelearning project for their Communication You Have The Choice, They Don't was the message of the Arts class. The media campaign included a ACE High School media campaign in Iron County. billboard, exhibit boards, radio spots, and place mats for local restaurants. Students chose the topic of second hand smoke. They did research to determine the best media outlets to use in their community. They wrote the message and formulated the layouts. They evaluated their project when it was completed. Not only did the students learn about secondhand smoke and how to put together a media campaign-they were rewarded for their efforts. The Michigan Cancer Consortium awarded ACE the Spirit of Cooperation Award for their outstanding work in the Upper Peninsula. ACE High School is part of the West Iron County Public Schools. Their project is one of36 school-based programs that receive funding through a Michigan Community Service Commission Learn and Serve - Michigan grant. �MICHIGAN COMMUNITY SERVICE VETERANS ARE TOUCHED BY CHILDREN'S INTEREST COMMISSION "The Veterans' Reception was a great way to bring two vastly separated generations together," said Ron DeWaard. "It makes up for so many times when older people and younger people purposely avoid each other because they think they have no common ground." Vietnam Veteran Ron DeWaard and his wife Linda, along with more than 100 other veterans and their wives recently attended the first annual Veterans' Reception hosted by members of the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Holland (BGCH). The reception, honoring veterans for service to our country, included a tour of the Boys and Girls Club, a dinner, and a program of speeches by both youth and veterans. Ron and Linda were touched by the expression of kindness on the part of the 85 Holland youth involved. The reception was the culmination of a year of correspondence between club members and veterans. Letters, holiday cards, valentines, and photographs were exchanged. A club member from the 5th grade had the greatest response from her veteran. After her first letter, she received a large package. It contained an extensive letter in which the veteran answered all her questions and included a book and pictures of the ship that he served on while in the Navy. In addition to giving students a window into the lives of veterans, the year-long project gave them opportunities to practice letter-writing and computer skills. The program was not directly designed to bring homeland security into the lives of the youth and the community. An exciting, but unexpected outcome was the level of awareness gained by the youth about what it means to serve your country and be part of a nation and community. Equally exciting was how touched the Veterans were by the interest of the children. "Acts of kindness are always rewarded," shared Army veteran, Bruce Glass. A lifetime member of VFW Post 2144 and former member of the 352nd Communication Reconnaissance Company, Mr. Glass served in the Korean War. He told the club members, "Your kindness toward old soldiers, Marines, sailors and airmen will not be forgotten. We salute you." Students in this program also • Planned with community leaders and decorated the parade route for the Veterans' Day and Memorial Day parades • Cleaned up and prepared equipment for storage after parades • Researched the wars which veterans corresponded about This service-learning project is part of the Learn and Serve- Michigan program at the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Holland. The Michigan Community Service Commission recently approved a $15,000 grant so this service-learning program can continue throughout the 2002-2003-program year. The BGCH service-learning program will engage at least 175 students in the upcoming year. The BGCH practice of service-learning is expanding throughout their youth serving programs. �MICHIGAN COMMUNI1Y SERVICE YOUNG VOLUNTEER REACHES OUT TO SENIORS COMMISSION "A knock on the door and a man saying 'Follow me,' and the next thing I knew we were being evacuated," said Joyce Mallory, a resident of Courthouse Square Apartments in Ann Arbor. On a hot July evening, seventy residents got a helping hand from the American Red Cross, when a fire in the elevator shaft forced them to evacuate their apartments. Coordinating with the University of Michigan, Red Cross staff and volunteers arranged for residents of the downtown assisted Insert photo living facility to be bussed to temporary housing at a local hotel. Complications in repairing the problem at Courthouse Square turned the one-night stay into four nights. The residents were concerned about their apartments, pets needed care, and many seniors needed to replenish medications left behind in their hasty exit. Working with the Ann Arbor Transportation Authority and other community agencies, the Red Cross team turned a potentially traumatic few days into "an adventure," as resident Elizabeth Galvan called it. Daily shuttles were Red Cross volunteers assist seniors during their crisis. scheduled for residents, meals were served, and medical assistance provided. Happy to be on her way back home after the crisis, Joyce said she thought the Red Cross volunteers were wonderful. "Without the Red Cross, we'd have been lost," she said. One of the volunteers who helped with the evacuation and sheltering was 17-year-old Deondre Richmond. Deondre became a volunteer through the Red Cross Youth Community Action Team (YCAT). He had only recently completed his orientation when he was called into action. Working alongside experienced team members, Deondre provided information, food, and a listening ear to the seniors. During the five days ofthe crisis, he volunteered a total of 59 hours. He combined his training with common sense and youthful energy to do anything he could. Although public recognition is not important to him, Deondre received a Certificate of Appreciation from the Red Cross Emergency Services Department. YCAT engages 80 youth between the ages of 12 and 17 in a variety of community service activities that are mainly focused on peer education. Youth volunteers first complete First Aid and CPR training. Then they choose an interest area such as Community Disaster, Water Safety, or Pet First Aid for their next level of training. The young people utilize their training to assist their peers and to volunteer for Red Cross projects throughout the community. The Michigan Community Service Commission recently awarded the Red Cross a $15,000 Learn and Serve- Michigan communitybased grant for the YCAT program. �MICHIGAN COMMUNITY SERVICE COMMISSION Learn and Serve - Michigan School-Based Programs �MICHIGAN LEARN AND SERVE- MICHIGAN SCHOOL-BASED COMMUNITY ROSTER SERVICE COMMIS S ION Bedford Public Schools Implementation Grant- $19,067 Sharon Throm Community Education Department 1623 West Sterns Road Temperance, Michigan 48182 Phone: 734.850.6034 Fax: 734.850.6099 Email: throms@bedford.k12.mi.us Bedford Public Schools is working to develop a comprehensive, district-wide service-learning program.

AmeriCorps is similar to a domestic Peace Corps. Programs are housed within nonprofit organizations, schools, and other agencies throughout our state. Each program sets its own goals to help meet local needs. • The AmeriCorps members are building houses, mentoring children, teaching conflict resolution, recruiting volunteers, and more. • The 24 programs are engaging 684 members in a variety of activities focusing on the environment, education, public safety, and human needs. • Last year, each full-time Michigan's AmeriCorps member recruited an average of 41 volunteers to help strengthen his or her community. AmeriCorps funding is available for organizations in your community. Funding is usually granted in three-year cycles with renewal funding based upon successful completion of annual goals. Michigan's AmeriCorps grants traditionally average $250,000 each and require match funds. The next funding cycle for Michigan's AmeriCorps programs will take place in Fall2003 with availability of the Request for Proposal (RFP) tentatively scheduled for October 2003. The RFP will be available online for downloading and printing. Applicants must submit hard copies of proposals. Do you know a potential AmeriCorps member? AmeriCorps members are dedicated individuals at least 17 years of age who want to make a difference in their community. Potential members can find out more about AmeriCorps by visiting www.americorps.org. They can find the Michigan programs by clicking on "AmeriCorps in Your State" and selecting Michigan, or calling 800.942.2677. �2002-2003 Michigan's AmeriCorps • • • • • • • • • • • • • •• • • •• •• • • • •• •• • MISSNJKEE LAKE AU..EGAN OSCEOlA CLARE MECOSTA ISABEllA GLADW1N MCJNTC.IJ.M GRATlOT IONIA CUNTON BARR'f EAlON CAUiOUN CASS OGEMAW ST. JOSEPH BRANCH INGHAM JACKSON WASHTENAW lENAWEE �MICHIGAN COMMUHI1Y SERVICE COMMISSION AMERICORPS RAMP PROJECT ACCOMPLISHES WHAT OTHERS COULDN'T When Kevin Mullins lost his leg and his job, he and his family were heartbroken. Kevin was hospitalized with a serious infection that culminated in the amputation of his leg. Thus began a nightmare of skyrocketing hospitalization costs, as the hospital would not allow Kevin to come home until an access ramp was installed. A ramp, which costs $5,000- $7,000 when built by a private contractor, was out of reach for the Mullins. Kevin began preparation to move to a nursing home. Kevin's wife, Colleen, contacted more than 50 agencies looking for help. Finally, she connected with the Community Builders Corps, an AmeriCorps program that builds ramps for individuals for the cost of materials-·approximately $1,500. As the Mullins were already financially strapped, even this amount was too much. Kevin Mullins arrives home, thanks to the Community Builders Corps. The AmeriCorps members would not give up on Kevin. They asked local lumberyards for help. Brooks Lumber in Detroit offered the materials at their cost ($1 ,200), but the Mullins still could not pay that amount. They were discussing the situation in Kevin's hospital room one night when the patient in the next bed overheard their conversation. The patient called his son. The next day the son came to visit Kevin and offered to pay for the materials to build the ramp. Four days later, the ramp was completed and Kevin Mullins went home. Young Detroit Builders recently received a $176,419 grant from the Michigan Community Service Commission to continue the Community Builders Corps program in 2002-2003. This program enrolls 14 full-time AmeriCorps members to: • • • • Build at least 30 wheelchair ramps for disabled individuals Make adaptation improvements to the home of 40 low-income seniors or disabled persons Provide outdoor services (clean windows and gutters, rake leaves, pick up trash, etc.) for approximately 50 low-income, disabled individuals Respond to at least 30 requests from the Community Policing Office (see below) Community Builders Corps' newest partner is the Detroit's 4th Precinct Community Policing Office. This project helps people whose homes have been burglarized. Break-ins often result in a broken doorjamb or shattered windows, leaving the victims feeling vulnerable to another attack. AmeriCorps members are now on call to make repairs so families can remain in their homes with an increased sense of security. �- M I CHI G I< N COMMIJHI1Y SERVICE AMERICORPS MEMBERS BmLD HOPE By Joshua Brugger COMMISSION As an AmeriCorps member, I learned valuable lessons about the importance of hope. I came to believe that every day it was my job to help people find hope-to coax it, to prod it, to bring it out of its hiding place and into the light. This past year, I was an AmeriCorps member with Lakeshore Habitat for Humanity in Holland. Working alongside many volunteers, I helped build a dozen simple and decent homes. These new homes brought hope to families. Sometimes the days were long and difficult. I spent days of 11, 12, and 13 hours painting and roofing in the hot summer sun. I also dug water line trenches through frozen earth in December to meet a New Year's Day deadline. One of my favorite memories of my AmeriCorps year was a project I did with the Boys and Girls Club of Greater Holland. I taught a woodworking class to teenagers. Classes included lessons in safety, learning about tools and materials, and the opportunity to build something. Something like a toolbox, bird house, or bug habitat. Joshua ·Brugger Now on one particular day, I thought that I'd really wow the kids. So, what did I do? I brought power tools with me! After receiving permission from the Boys and Girls Club, I came to class ready with a drill, a circular saw, and a 2x 10 board that was 6 feet long. This was going to be a great class! I had several students help me carry in all of the equipment. As they did, they paraded the power tools in front of their friends-eager to show that they were special because they got to carry the drill or the saw. Class began. Kids were lined up outside the door, peering through the windows, climbing over each other so they could see. Every seat was filled. Excitement was in the air. It was like being on the set of Tool Time. I laid that 2x10 out on the table. Donned my safety glasses. Measured and strategically marked off the spot I would cut. As a trained member of Habitat for Humanity, I do know that a 7 o/4" titanium tipped plywood blade is terrific for cutting plywood or siding. But I don't know why I didn't remember that it doesn't work so well when cutting through a piece of#2 pine. After the smoke cleared, the kids and I all had a great laugh! I'll never forget that day. And I'll never forget the day four months later, when those same kids built a ramp for a 7-year-old boy with spina bifida. They learned a lesson about hope that day because they gave hope and happiness to that young boy and his family. So now I encourage everyone to plant hope. Hope makes change happen. It may not happen overnight. It may take years to grow. I believe the hope I planted during my year as an AmeriCorps member is still making a difference in the lives of the people in Holland today. �MICHIGAN COMMUNITY MICHIGAN'S AMERICORPS ROSTER SERVICE C OMMIS S ION AmeriCorps Homeless Program $125,961 Tiffany Fields, Program Director Wayne Metro Community Services Agency 3715 West Jefferson Ecorse, Michigan 48229 Phone: 313.843.2550 x 229 Fax: 313.841.7540 Email: tfields@waynemetro.org The AmeriCorps Homeless Program involves ten full-time members with four homeless service agencies to provide or enhance homeless services in Out-Wayne County.

Mawby Executive Director Kyle Caldwell MEMORANDUM TO: Members of the Michigan Community Service Commission Executive Committee FROM: Kyle Caldwell, Executive Director RE: CNCS Funding & Enrollment Approvals DATE: Friday, December 06, 2002 ti- The staff of the Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) wish to request that the members consider three policy recommendations. First, staff recommend that the members of the MCSC empower the Executive Committee to approve the MCSC ' s grant application submissions to the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS) with the consent of the full commission at its next regularly scheduled meeting. Since its inception in 1993, the CNCS has been unable to provide a consistent calendar of funding approval dates for its funding. This is due in part to the actions and inactions of the United States Congress in appropriating funding as well as the changes in priorities and regulations imposed by the CNCS. Since the MCSC now schedules its meeting three years in advance, staff are continuously working to change its outreach, application, and outreach processes to align the decision-making process with the MCSC meetings . Empowering the Executive Committee to approve staff recommendations for CNCS funding will provide greater flexibility and allow the MCSC staff to be more proactive in its grant-making processes. Second, staff request that the MCSC approve staff recommendations for criteria to determine acceptance or denial of AmeriCorps Sustainability Policy Appeals: 1. A proven record of success as a Michigan ' s AmeriCorps program. 2. A valid demonstration of efforts to create and implement viable fundraising and partnership building strategies. 3. A clear explanation oflocal challenges that have hampered sustainability strategies. 4. Other extenuating circumstances that have impeded the organization' s efforts to meet the increased match requirements. Finally, the staff request that the MCSC empower the MCSC staff to approve or deny any Michigan' s AmeriCorps program' s request to over-enroll members. While over-enrollment is allowed by the CNCS, staff feel that it is important that this privilege be granted on a case by case basis and not be automatic. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
