By emphasizing the importance of building an endowment as a vehicle to diversify income streams and grow sustainability, the VIG added stability to the fund development plans of more than 20 Volunteer Centers. While increasing the financial capacity of some centers, it is not clear how effective the grant was in building the capacity of Volunteer Centers as a network to meet community needs through staffing, training, communication and programming. Nor is it clear that stronger outcomes and accountability have resulted. In the past three years, especially, Volunteer Centers and other nonprofits that rely on volunteers to assist in meeting their goals, have been hard hit by economic shortfalls. They compete for ever-decreasing funding and higher premium volunteers place on their time, and express concerns that the nonprofit infrastructure needs these resources to survive. Recent studies by the Urban Institute and the Grantmakers Forum support this assessment. And it becomes further apparent, as Volunteer Centers try to educate the public, including public officials, about the need for volunteerism in communities, and the value of civic engagement in dollars and productivity, that the case is not being made effectively. Community service continues to be extremely necessary, yet equally underrated. Support organizations are wont to demonstrate the value of their work and the need to make the case for increased commitment and funding. The Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM) seeks $200,000 in VIG funding to: 1. Enlarge the capacity of Volunteer Centers to meet the core competencies and Standards of Excellence mandated by the Volunteer Center National Network. 2. Create an information and referral system statewide that will meet the needs of local centers while providing impact data to help make the case for service and volunteerism in Michigan. 3. Fortify the sector by assisting Volunteer Centers in their role of providing support to local nonprofits. Proposal Overview Volunteer Centers of Michigan proposes that the Michigan’s Volunteer Investment Grant be used in 2005 as a demonstration grant, through which VCM will: 1. Enlarge the capacity of Volunteer Centers to meet the core competencies and Standards of Excellence mandated by the Volunteer Center National Network. These competencies are: I. Connect People with Opportunities to Serve �    The Volunteer Center provides information and services to all potential volunteers in the service area. The Volunteer Center connects people to a variety of opportunities in various sectors of the community. Information available from the Center is accurate and updated at least annually. The Volunteer Center knows how many people they connect with an opportunity to serve and shares this information with the National Network annually. II. Build the Capacity for Effective Local Volunteering  The Volunteer Center provides information about the availability of volunteer management training, consultation and other management resources. III. Promote Volunteering  The Volunteer Center engages in activities to promote the value of volunteering and to recruit volunteers.  The Volunteer Center engages in activities to recognize volunteers. IV. Participate in Strategic Initiatives  The Volunteer Center seeks collaborative opportunities to involve volunteers in addressing community issues. These core competencies will be used as a foundation for the work of the research project mentioned below. The findings of the research project will provide us with the status of the Volunteer Center field in Michigan and allow us to formulate plans to addresses any needs identified by the research. 2. Create an information system that will include the Inauguration of a research project to determine a. A profile of the 30 VCM member Volunteer Centers in Michigan, b. Common outputs and outcomes, c. Challenges faced in meeting community needs and funding programs, d. The social capital of the programs and services performed by Volunteer Centers for the nonprofit and public sectors, further translated into monetary terms; 3. Improve the outreach and recruitment efforts of Volunteer Centers by enhancing their accessibility through increased technological capacity. We will accomplish this via a web-based outreach and recruitment program. Our intent is to contract for a product that will permit our volunteer centers to offer the following: a volunteer matching, referral, and notification system, which provides agencies and volunteers with an easily accessible “one-stop-shop” for posting and responding to traditional and targeted volunteer opportunities. We are currently reviewing a proposal from the POLF on their 1-800 Volunteer products. 4. Strengthen the knowledge base within Volunteer Centers in areas that will elevate sustainability, including: a. Benchmarks, outcomes and accountability b. Resource development 5. Further build the statewide network by identifying and constructing an electronic system of aggregating data and utilizing this information to promote a strong case statement. In an effort �to achieve this we propose to use results from the research data mentioned above to design our system. Tentative plans are to have this in place by September 2005 for implementation by the Volunteer Centers. Even though this is not part of the research project mentioned above, results from the research will assist us in our design efforts. 6. Fortify the nonprofit sector by assisting Volunteer Centers to offer volunteer management training and support, and to involve community nonprofits and public programs in other training activities that will increase recruitment, retention and recognition of their volunteers. Proposed Activities 1. VCM will offer training at its March Retreat, and May and August 2005 quarterly meetings in Logic Model development of benchmark activities and outcomes, resource development, and methods of working with the research protocol utilized within the grant focus. 2. Engage a research firm familiar with statewide nonprofit and volunteer issues to profile the status of Michigan’s Volunteer Centers and network and to evaluate and analyze data over an eighteen month period. 3. Conduct a feasibility study and contract for a national online community searchable database for all Volunteer Centers for three years to increase recruitment of volunteers, make the Volunteer Centers more accessible and visible, and improve data gathering and reporting. 4. Set up a statewide aggregating system to gather data and project analysis that can be used for education and marketing, in order to build case statements that will convey the value of community volunteerism and Volunteer Centers. 5. Issue small re-grants to Volunteer Centers that train local nonprofits in volunteer management and use of the online recruitment service, especially when youth mentoring or volunteering is a target service. �Anticipated Budget 1 Activity Timeline Training for VC March 2005- Retreat Training and technical assistance provided by or brokered through VCM to aid volunteer centers in their local capacity building efforts. Training will include board development, fundraising, volunteer management, outcomes based management, and other forms of nonprofit capacity building. Est.

Rising, State Treasurer Chairman - Michigan Merit Award Board c/o Michigan Dept. of Treasury P.O. Box 30719 Lansing, MI 48909 Dear Mr. Rising: The Volunteer Centers in Michigan are following with great interest the recent news of the addition of a community service requirement to the Michigan Merit Award. This mandate will strengthen the learning that students achieve in their preparation for college, by adding an aspect of character education that can only be attained when a person reaches outside of oneself to help others. Volunteer Centers are pleased that this opportunity for civic engagement has been created for students. Youth volunteerism provides the opportunity for career exploration and life experience. It teaches civic responsibility and exposes students to diverse populations and cultures. Local communities will benefit through enhanced quality of life and young people who are more fully engaged in their communities. And communities can benefit significantly too. Youth have much to offer through their enthusiasm, their physical stamina, their curiosity and willingness to experience new situations and their optimism about contributing in a way that will really make a difference. Their volunteer efforts will enhance the quality of life for others, particularly through mentoring of younger children, and through intergenerational service and companionship with the frail or disabled elderly population However, we also have our concerns about the implementation of this new resolution. Many schools may not be equipped, and will be hard pressed to create systems for volunteer management, or to be liaisons to community agencies. Volunteer Centers are uniquely positioned to assist in advancing this program. All Volunteer Centers offer youth services, and a growing number of Volunteer Centers host the Michigan Student Service Awards, a similar program with even more stringent requirements (400 hours of service versus 40). Because of this experience, Volunteer Centers have faced and resolved a number of issues surrounding finding of volunteer opportunities for young volunteers, as well as reporting, documentation, liability issues, and other concerns. Due to the massive number of potential Merit Award recipients (over 50,000 in 2004) and the fact that most students will be now be looking for community servied opportunities and assistance throughout their full high school tenure, the state faces a massive infrastructure problem which will need to be addressed. As many as 200,000 students each year could be looking for volunteer opportunities. We are concerned that already-overextended school districts will not have the capacity to expedite the program requirements. You may wish to consider the dangers of students, parents and educators falling into an environment of disappointment due to an overwhelmed nonprofit sector overrun with well-intentioned, but unprepared, volunteers. �Michigan’s 32 Volunteer Centers serve 85% of the state’s population, and are willing to act as partners in creatively solving this problem. Volunteer Centers are already receiving calls about the program from parents, schools and agencies - the community recognizes that we are the best resource to link youth to volunteer opportunities that will appropriately fulfill the new requirements. Volunteer Centers have much expertise to share and would like to propose the following activities to assist the Michigan Merit Award Board to meet the needs of schools in setting up parameters and procedures for the new mandate.  Establish a committee of diverse interested parties to examine the issues that will impact the schools and community nonprofits, as they seek to increase the meaningful volunteer opportunities available to youth;  Look at issues of liability, documentation and accessibility;  Facilitate dialogue around the technology and resources that can make opportunities more accessible and record-keeping more consistent;  Set up community systems that involve Volunteer Centers to advise and assist the schools in their responsibilities; and finally,  Consider how to make this new requirement one that will be of benefit to communities as well as students, rather than being burdensome.. The Volunteer Center network can be helpful locally in training a school representative in each district on volunteer management issues, how to work with students around expectations, and tracking/documentation. Volunteer Centers can be resources for information on liability and on best practices. We can offer a youth leadership component, and primarily, we can work with local nonprofits to create more worthwhile opportunities and events, and offer online searchable databases that students can access at any time. While Volunteer Centers have the knowledge and programmatic expertise, funding for volunteer resource centers is limited, and most will find that the time involved in working closely with all of their local school districts could severely strain their capacity. Because we envision the possibility of so many positive aspects for youth and communities as the result of the new volunteer mandate, Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM) is already seeking resources that will afford the Volunteer Centers the increased capacity to move forward with proactive and effective systems to handle the overload that will be created very soon. We look forward to discussing these issues with you, and being of service to the Michigan Merit Award Board as you move the scholarship program into a new realm of learning and growing for students.

We are convinced that with the continued support of the VIG grant, Volunteer Centers can be instrumental as the vital link in assisting schools with the new community service mandate of Michigan’s Merit Award. As you know, the scholarship will now require that recipients complete 40 hours of volunteer service during their high school years. Volunteer Centers are already receiving calls about the program from parents, schools and agencies - the community recognizes that we are the best resource to link youth to volunteer opportunities that will appropriately fulfill the new requirements. Volunteer Centers are pleased that this opportunity for civic engagement has been created for students. Youth volunteerism provides the opportunity for career exploration and life experience. It teaches civic responsibility and exposes students to diverse populations and cultures. Local communities will benefit through enhanced quality of life and young people who are more fully engaged in their communities. Many schools may not be equipped, and will be hard pressed to create systems for volunteer management, or to be liaisons to community agencies. Volunteer Centers are uniquely positioned to assist in advancing this program; all Volunteer Centers offer youth services and a growing number of Volunteer Centers host the Michigan Student Service Awards, a similar program with even more stringent requirements (400 hours of service versus 40). Due to this experience, Volunteer Centers have faced and resolved a number of issues surrounding finding of volunteer opportunities for young volunteers, as well as reporting, documentation, liability issues, and other concerns. Due to the massive number of potential Merit Award recipients (over 50,000 in 2004) and the fact that most students will be now be looking for volunteering opportunities and assistance throughout their tenure in high school, the state faces a massive infrastructure problem which will need to be addressed. As many as 200,000 students each year could be looking for volunteer opportunities. We are concerned that already-overextended school �districts will not have the capacity to expedite the program requirements. You may wish to consider the dangers of students, parents and educators falling into an environment of disappointment due to an overwhelmed nonprofit sector overrun with well-intentioned, but unprepared, volunteers. Michigan’s 32 Volunteer Centers serve 85% of the state’s population, and are willing to act as partners in creatively solving this problem. While Volunteer Centers have the knowledge and programmatic expertise, funding for volunteer resource centers is limited, and most will find that the time involved in working closely with all of their local school districts will severely strain their capacity. Altering current authorizing language for Michigan’s VIG to create a simple annual appropriation to assist in administration of the Merit Award program would be an innovative and cost-effective solution. The fate of the VIG lies in the hands of the conference committee determining the final version of the Department of Labor and Economic Growth Appropriations Bill (HB 5521). Please consider maintaining the Volunteer Investment Grant funding, as a method of supporting Michigan’s strong stance on the importance of volunteering, and adding value to the Michigan Merit Award scholarships. The Volunteer Investment Grant can be the vital link that connects our schools and our community organizations to help students enter college as stronger and more committed adults. Your vote on the conference committee to reinstate funding for the VIG can make this happen.

VCM supports Governor Granholm’s budget, and we know that the Governor’s clear and abiding interest in the importance of civic engagement and especially mentoring and youth volunteering will strengthen the communities in this state. Volunteer Centers want to contribute to the success of the Michigan Merit Award’s new requirement for volunteering by scholarship recipients. We believe that we will best be able to do that through a tie-in with the Volunteer Investment Grants, which sustain Volunteer Center capacity by providing resources for the generation and management of volunteers. We are asking the legislative conferees, Senators Garcia, George and Prusi, and Representatives Shulman, Steil and Whitmer to consider the benefits of reappropriating the full amount of $280,100 to the Volunteer Investment Grant as a way of ensuring a good start to the new provisions of the Merit Award. I will send you a copy, as well, of the general proposal that we are sending to the Merit Award Board, regarding our interest in assisting the schools with their obligations to students who qualify for the awards. Thank you for your attention to this legislative matter.

Since, we really are not functioning as a volunteer center, but are actually regrouping using a Strategic Planning Committee, I did not respond. However, please bear with me, as I explain our unique situation and where our planning process will end up. The Manistee County Volunteer Center is the only Volunteer Center in Michigan under a governmental unit, the Family Independence Agency. SF/SC funds were used to organize it. All the paper work is in place, all of the t's are crossed and the i's dotted for a volunteer center to begin functioning. End of funds. FIA has incorporated the duties of its Volunteer Services Coordinator with the Volunteer Center Director. It has not and is not working. The current Board of Directors of the Volunteer Center have all kicked in $100 each to have a professional consultant lead a panel of 25 Community Leaders (list attached), through 9 one hour sessions of Strategic Planning with the end result being a marketing/business plan to have a fully operational/functional Volunteer Center for Manistee County. We are on our third session. The interest and excitement level is really growing. We are currently developing the vision of how we want the Volunteer Center organized and what we want it to do. Next will be funding. Preliminary discussions has us going for a Kmart Community grant for start-up funds. Then a marketing plan of possibly recruiting local partners who will commit to ten years of support at a level of $5,000 to $25,000. I hope you find this information of value.

VCM exists to support local volunteer centers in their efforts to mobilize people and resources to deliver creative solutions to community problems. The mission ofVCM is to strengthen existing volunteer centers, to provide leadership in developing new centers, and to promote and strengthen volunteerism statewide. VCM is affiliated with the Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA). The mission ofMNA is to promote the awareness and effectiveness of Michigan's nonprofit sector, and to advance the cause ofvolunteerism and philanthropy in the state. MNA serves as the fiscal agent for VCM. VCM member directors serve as the VCM Operating Council, and are represented on the MNA Board ofTrustees. Through its affiliation with MNA, VCM also works closely with Michigan Campus Compact, an association of Michigan universities and colleges which promotes citizenship by encouraging service experiences for students. In addition to these affiliate organizations, VCM works closely with the Michigan Community Service Commission, Council of Michigan Foundations, and United Way of Michigan in coordinating a number of services and programs. VCM has been in existence for ten years. It began as an informal network for peer support and assistance. In 1993, VCM affiliated with MNA (then the Michigan Nonprofit Forum), creating a fulltime staff position to support the network. VCM staff currently consists of a Director, National Service Manager and Assistant National Service Manager, sharing support staff, office space and equipment with MNAandMCC. VCM member centers pay annual dues, which is used entirely for member support expenses (mailings, phone, meetings, etc.). • PROGRAMS AND SERVICES Network Support VCM provides ongoing support to volunteer centers and the volunteerism field through the following services: v' RESOURCE LIBRARY: including over 100 volumes on all aspects of volunteer management, nonprofit management, and streams of service; also includes the University of Colorado Volunteer Management Certificate Program videotape series. I �.,t' MEMBER MAILINGS: monthly updates/fax alerts on current state and national initiatives, funding opportunities and legislation; promotion oflocal events and celebration of local center accomplishments . .,t' QUARTERLY MEETINGS: for volunteer center directors; feature a morning business meeting and afternoon work session focused on a current issue or topic as identified by the directors . .,t' ANNUAL RETREAT: for volunteer center directors to plan strategically for the organization; discuss pertinent issues; network and relax . .,t' MICIDGAN ASSOCIATION OF VOLUNTEER ADMINISTRATORS: MAYA is a statewide association of volunteer administrators representing a full range of agencies, organizations, and programs.

Managers of volunteer programs, leaders of volunteer organizations and others who support and promote volunteerism are eligible for membership. MAVA members have access to all VCM/MNA member benefits and services. Training and Technical Assistance VCM and MNA work to support the volunteerism sector in partnership with local volunteer centers. Examples of their training and technical assistance include: .,t' REGIONAL TRAININGS: VCM and MNA offer a minimum of two regional training series annually. The fall series is typically an overview ofthe Basics of Volunteer Management, with the spring series taking on immediate needs identified by the sector (i.e., Spring 1997 covered legal and accounting issues) . .,t' VOLUNTEERISM SUPERCONFERENCE: VCM is host to the statewide Volunteerism SuperConference, held every two years. The SuperConference is a two-day event bringing representatives from all segments of the volunteer field together for workshops, networking, and resource sharing. The 1998 Volunteerism SuperConference had over 1,400 participants, featuring keynote speakers General Colin Powell, David Sawyer, Dr. John Kretzmann and Marcia Bullard. The SuperConference is held in conjunction with the Governor's Community Service Awards Dinner. .,t' LOCAL TRAININGS/CONSULTATION: VCM works with local volunteer centers to develop/secure training opportunities that meet local needs. Public Relations In an effort to promote the impact and opportunities for volunteerism within Michigan, VCM and MNA are examining how we can best be of service to our constituents. At present, the majority of our time is given to the coordination and development of: .,t' ConnectMichigan: ConnectMichigan is a multi-layer, statewide public relations campaign to promote volunteerism and community involvement. The ConnectMichigan campaign, as a component of the national Connect America initiative, includes a volunteerism hotline (POLF's 1-800-VOLUNTEER), television and radio public service announcements, written support materials, and outdoor advertising. ConnectMichigan billboard campaigns will focus annually around four major "seasonal" themes: Make A Difference Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service, National Volunteer Week, and Michigan's Promise. National Service The opportunity to place National Service Members in Michigan communities for the support of local volunteerism was presented to VCM and MNA through both the AmeriCorps and AmeriCorps VISTA programs. We currently administer two statewide service programs: .,t' VCM AMERICORPS: MICIDGAN'S AMERICORPS: The purpose ofVCM AmeriCorps is to promote and sustain youth involvement in volunteerism and community problem solving; 2 �and to advance the goals of The Presidents' Summit for America's Future and America's Promise within communities throughout Michigan. VCM AmeriCorps is designed to meet the needs of Michigan's young people, systems that affect them, and the communities in which they live. VCM AmeriCorps places teams of national service volunteers in volunteer centers and partnering agencies throughout the state of Michigan to actively engage youth during after school hours in efforts to solve community problems. ol' NEW PARTNERSIDPS VISTA: The New Partnerships VISTA program places volunteers in four regions of the state to promote and support citizen-driven community problem solving through serviCe and volunteerism. VISTAs support the New Partnerships concept for community problem solving through communication, citizen action and collaboration among private, nonprofit, and government sectors. VISTA efforts strengthen inter-sector partnerships and support citizen-driven community solutions, particularly related to school success and to youth development during non-school hours. Public Policy As well respected statewide entities, VCM and MNA realize a great potential to monitor and impact public policy. In addition to keeping our local constituents apprised of relevant issues, our key activities in this area include: ol' ADVOCACY: VCM and MNA actively address public policy issues that affect volunteer centers and the nonprofit sector. Recent issues demanding our attention include the Volunteer Liability Act and theYouth on Boards Bill. ol' MICIDGAN PUBLIC POLICY INITIATIVE: MNA is also coordinating the Michigan Public Policy Initiative (MPPI) in partnership with the Council of Michigan Foundations.

Financial Support VCM and MNA support the network of volunteer centers and the broader field of volunteerism through the development and identification of funding opportunities: ol' GEORGE W. ROMNEY FUND FOR VOLUNTEERISM IN MICHIGAN: To honor George Romney and to keep his vision of volunteerism alive, the Volunteer Centers of Michigan (VCM) and the Michigan Nonprofit Association established the George W. Romney Fund for Volunteerism in Michigan in 1996. This endowment fund will continue Romney's dream by: • building local infrastructure through the establishment of local volunteer center endowment funds, • providing mini-grants to support innovative volunteer projects and programs across the state, and • supporting an annual public relations campaign to spur participation in volunteer programs (ConnectMichigan). ol' VOLUNTEER INVESTMENT GRANTS: VCM was instrumental in the development of Michigan's Volunteer Investment Grants (VIG). Administered by the Michigan Community Service Commission, $1 million annually is available to community-based, volunteer, 3 �nonprofit agency partnerships that designate and support an agency to function as a community volunteer resource center. VIG strives to meet two goals: • Support and increase volunteer ism and community service, and • Leverage local funds supporting local community foundation endowments that help sustain the activities of a community volunteer resource center.

In December, the MCSC notified VCM that while the Michigan’s Volunteer Investment Grant dollars were zeroed out for FY 05, the MCSC might be able to garner $200,000 for support of Volunteer Centers for this year. The MCSC met with the leadership of VCM to discuss how these dollars could be used to increase the capacity and sustainability of Volunteer Centers across the state. The MCSC reiterated its goal to support efforts that would demonstrate the importance and value of Michigan’s Volunteer Centers. All parties agreed that this funding (still named Volunteer Investment Grants) would be important as a public investment in the work of Volunteer Centers. There were four principles generated from the conversations that are listed below. It is important that we all understand these important provisos related to the Volunteer Investment Grants and the process we are implementing.     The VIG should be targeted toward increasing capacity, value and identification of the work of the Volunteer Centers. The MCSC would like to invest in a “systems” approach and not a series of individual community grants. The MCSC is not intending for this funding to be used in the same way as the initial VIG program and will not require matching toward endowments. The funding is not in hand and needs to be referred to as prospective and not guaranteed. I convened the Executive Committee with the leadership of MCSC to determine how this funding might best be utilized while meeting the goals of the MCSC. Out of that meeting, VCM staff drafted a plan and presented that plan to the Executive Committee for submission to the MCSC Board of Directors. We believe this plan meets all of the criteria discussed and will benefit the entire network. The plan will demonstrate to the State of Michigan, your community, and your potential funders the value of Volunteer Centers and their services. 1048 Pierpont, Suite3, Lansing, Michigan 48911 Phone: (517) 492-2430 ● Fax: (517) 492-2444 ● Email: Tymowicz@mivoluneers.org Toll Free: 1-888-242-7075 (MI only) ● www.mivolunteers.org �On Friday, February 11th the MCSC Board approved provisional funding for the plan listed below. It was approved provisionally because funds are not currently available and may not be available until April. This grant will be used to: 1. Coordinate and employ a professional research firm to develop the following: a. A profile of the 30 VCM member Volunteer Centers in Michigan b. Common outputs and outcomes c. Challenges faced in meeting community needs and funding programs d. The social capitol of the programs and services performed by Volunteer Centers for the nonprofit and public sectors, further translated into monetary terms. 2. Provide a national online community searchable database for all Volunteer Centers for a three year period. This tool will be used to increase recruitment of volunteers, make the Volunteer Centers more accessible and visible to agencies and volunteers, and improve data gathering and reporting. 3. Set up a statewide system to track and gather data from all persons and organizations that benefit from Volunteer Centers in order to build case statements that will convey the value of community volunteerism and Volunteer Centers to our communities and funders. 4. Offer training in March, May and August 2005 that will assist Volunteer Centers in collecting information and measuring results that are the focus of the grant. This includes: Logic Model development to benchmark activities and outcomes and resource development. It is everyone’s hope that through these activities Volunteer Centers can begin to make the public more aware of the important need for volunteerism in communities, leadership role Volunteer Centers can play, and the value of civic engagement in dollars, quality of life and productivity. We will have a number updates, including information on this opportunity, for you at our March 3rd and 4th VCM Retreat!

This note is a brief update to help you understand our progress toward getting your commission the support you need through a strong national organization. What is the future of our Association? Your association’s future is strong. We are at the final stages of our audit resolution process (described in more detail below) and have developed and implemented strong fiscal and management systems. There is a tremendous need for support of state commissions and the voice they need to have with financial supporters and policy makers. Several states are transitioning leadership at both the staff and commissioner levels. This new group of national service leaders will need to understand the complicated issues facing them and their work as they support our nation’s volunteers. National issues will need to be addressed. State commissions have demonstrated new value in their work on emergency response and relief efforts across the country. Decisions on critical state commission specific issues are on the horizon. The new AmeriCorps rules will be published soon, a meeting of State Commission Executive Directors will be convened in April, and the appropriations process will soon begin for FY 2006 with the President’s unveiling of his budget on February 7, 2005. The need for an association identifying and forwarding your interests is strong. The ASC Board is working to determine how best to meet your needs in the constantly changing environment in which you work. Who is running ASC? Due to the suspension of federal funds and the increased expenses incurred due to the audit by the Inspector General of the Corporation for National and Community Service, ASC currently has no staff, but the office in Washington, DC is still available thanks to the support of the Points of Light Foundation where ASC is housed. The ASC Board is handling the limited day-to-day operations of the organization and the completion of special projects like the W.K. Kellogg Foundation funded commissioner training initiative. The full Board of Directors will be meeting on February 9-10 in Washington, DC. to determine the next steps. This meeting was designed around your responses to formal and informal surveys as to what your national association can and should do for you. The Board will develop an action plan out of this meeting and share it with the full membership for your input. What is the status of the ASC and CNCS Inspector General Audit? ASC has overhauled its fiscal and management systems and has implemented comprehensive policies and procedures to ensure the integrity of the organization’s operations. On Wednesday, February 2, 2005 the ASC Board of Directors sent its final response to the Inspector General's (IG) report to the Corporation for National and Community Service. This is the final step prior to the CNCS issuing a management decision that will begin to determine the balance of the grant funds due to ASC. Once the CNCS Office of Grants Management submits its management decision to the IG, the IG has 30 days to provide comment. This means that ASC should know its financial status by March of 2005. The official responses to date are posted on the ASC website (see: www.asc-online.org). �ASC also completed its A-133 Audits for the 2001-2003 fiscal years as required by the OMB standards for grantees of federal funds. The ASC Board also took the added step of having an independent auditor examine the 2004 records to ensure that all the remedies we put in place are working. This step was taken to ensure that the organization's newly established policies and procedures are adequate to ensure trust and reliability in its systems. While a full A-133 audit for the 2004 records would have been the preferred method, we are unable to do so until the IG audit is completed and we close out our CNCS grant. However, this report affirms that, to the extent that ASC systems can be tested, ASC is operating the payroll, general expenses and budgeting systems appropriately. When am I going to receive my invoice for dues and what will my contribution support? Normally you would receive an invoice for dues renewal on the anniversary of your joining the Association. The Board of ASC felt strongly that the members should not receive an invoice for dues until the organization has a well-defined plan for moving forward that was based on stakeholder input. That plan will come out some time after the Board's Feb. 9-10 meeting. Once the plan is solidified, your organization will receive a final copy for input followed by an invoice for dues payment. Your dues payment will support the activities and functions of the organizational plan. However, at the previous billing rate, if all dues are paid in full, the dues would generate less than $150,000 annually. Much like many of your organizations, our Association must slim down while also working to diversify and develop significant increases in the organization's revenue streams. This is why the organization's future plans must be narrowed and targeted on what members see as the most important function(s). What support can I expect in the short-term (next four to six months)? The ASC Board will be working to determine what services it can continue to provide in the future based on stakeholder input and the revenue streams available. The Peer-to-Peer grant activities have been suspended. If you have Peer-to-Peer training needs, please contact the CNCS directly through your assigned program officer. The ASC Board Chairman, Kyle Caldwell is handling the general duties of the organization and is taking inquiries regarding other forms of support that state commissions might identify. He can be reached at: Kyle Caldwell Chairman American Association of State Service Commissions c/o ConnectMichigan Alliance 1048 Pierpont Sutie #3 Lansing, Michigan 48911 517-492-2442 kyle@ConnectMichiganAlliance.org In the meantime, you will be receiving important information via email on developments in the national service arena. In addition, the ASC website (www.asc-online.org) has a tremendous amount of information available to you. The Association’s library contains important information on how to operate an effective organization and what other states have learned in their development over the past decade. The announcements and newsletters will keep you updated on different issues and inform you of the Association’s activities. Final Thoughts We hope these messages are helpful to you. The Board of ASC appreciates you continued support and hopes to be able to provide you with a healthy and proactive action plan for your association soon. In the mean time, please feel free to contact members of the board with any issues or concerns.
