Public Relations and Marketing- Commissioner O'Day Commissioner O'Day explained that the reason the Public Relations and Marketing committee was created was to share with more people all of the good work ofthe MCSC. The committee met via conference call on April11, 2001 and the summary of that meeting was enclosed in the commissioner packet. During that meeting the committee discussed some basis topics such as benchmarks, markets, themes, strategies and the committees next steps. Benchmarks- The committee suggested that the MCSC review the policies and practices of other nonprofit and government organizations and identify what components and plans the committee could use as a framework. Markets - The committee identified volunteers, volunteer organizations, grant making organizations, potential grantees and nonprofits generally as target markets for the public relations and marketing plans of the MCSC. Themes - The committee decided that the existing themes articulated in the MCSC visioning documents were deemed sufficient for incorporation in a plan. They include, "MCSC as a Grantor" and "MCSC as an Information Resource." Strategies - The committee suggested a number of strategies to address the public relations and marketing needs ofthe MCSC: 1. Use major grantees and grantors advertisement opportunities that showcase MCSC's grant making. 4 �2. Work with grantees to make grant making more visible and be able to tie to legislators and communities. 3. Develop a brochure and online tools for MCSC. Next Steps- The committee charged staff with creating a 3-5 page document that would lay out strategy for desired outcomes, strategies and definition of role stakeholders. The committee also suggested contacting higher education institutions with strong business/marketing departments for help including Grand Valley State University, University of Michigan, and Central Michigan University. Commissioner O'Day informed the Commission that contact had already been made with Grand Valley State University and they had been extremely cooperative. Commissioner Lubbers stated that the business school- the School of Communications at Grand Valley State University would be honored to help the MCSC. E. Legislative Outreach - Commissioner Pruitt Commissioner Pruitt referred to a written report of the April 19, 2001 meeting enclosed in the meeting packet. The committee members discussed several topics, including reasons to target the Michigan Legislature, methods, legislative events, press and constituent relations, federal perspective, and follow-up activities. Commissioner Pruitt stated that at that time, the committee had not devised any formal plan. The committee was still analyzing how to communicate with the legislature and communicate the value ofthe MCSC. Commissioner Pruitt noted that there had been discussion on a special event to commemorate the MCSC 101h anniversary and focused on the legislators. The event would be held in the fall. Commissioner Weinstock suggested that each commissioner meet with their own legislator from their community. This would help familiarize the legislators with theMCSC. V. Executive Director's Report- Kyle Caldwell Mr. Caldwell asked Commissioner Pickard to talk about the CMA meetings with General Motors. Commissioner Pickard explained that Campaign Chair, Michelle Engler and Julie Cummings met with General Motors officials. The CMA concept was well received, but the proposal still needed more "meat" and Debbie Dingell from General Motors agreed to work with the CMA and MCSC staff to "beef' it up and resubmit the proposal. 5 �A. Service-Learning in Michigan Mr. Caldwell presented what the MCSC is doing in the field of service-learning. Mr. Caldwell explained that service-learning is a teaching methodology that focuses on two primary components: the academics and quality service. Mr. Caldwell explained that they are linked together and that it is not just service or servicing and it is not just academics. Service-learning is a way of learning and, "making it real" for students in what they now call an experiential teaching methodology. Mr. Caldwell explained that service-learning is important because students take an active role in their learning. Drop out rates decrease, attendance rates increase and discipline referrals decrease as a result of service-learning. Service-learning improves the overall school and community climate. The students learn in the community as well as serving in the community. Mr. Caldwell explained that these are two very important points when thinking about disconnectedness, when talking about Columbine and the sort of violence happening in schools when students don't feel part of their community. Service-learning also provides an avenue for students to become positive contributors to society and to be seen as more than just recipients of service in the education system. Mr. Caldwell went on to explain that the research to date indicates that servicelearning has several impacts. First, academic achievement is increased. It increases the sense of civic responsibilities and enhances students' personal development and social and emotional development as well as their work skills. He said that in Michigan, more than 41,000 students are engaged in servicelearning through 32 programs that the MCSC fund through Learn and ServeMichigan School-Based programs. And finally, he noted the Commission study from Ferris State University says Michigan service-learning is more likely to occur in the larger districts, those with 3,000 or more, than medium or small districts. He also noted that he realized that it takes a lot of work and staff coordination in order to engage in service-learning programming. Those districts where the teachers and the support staff are working together tend to be more successful and that it's going to take a larger district with larger resources. Mr. Caldwell talked about the new innovative grant program at the MCSC called Community Higher Ed School Partnership Program (CHESP). This program is designed to bring together the partnering community-based organization, higher education institutions, schools and community into one knit group all focusing on kids and service-learning. 6 �Mr. Caldwell talked about what the MCSC is doing in the future to promote education and move service-learning forward in the field. B. MCSC FY 2001 Budget Mr. Caldwell explained that a report from Garry Gross from the Finance and Administration Division was enclosed in the commissioner packets. Mr. Caldwell stated that the numbers quoted in the report showed a shortfall for the FY 2001 budget as the overall number continued to float. The report was for the current budget. Part of the shortfall had occurred since the September meeting, because the Michigan Department of Management and Budget ordered an overall five percent cut from the current year's budget. Mr. Caldwell stated that the staff didn't see any major implications with regard to operations of the MCSC, but wanted to give a "heads up" to the commissioners that in the future, with revenues being down, the MCSC may have to make modifications and cuts. C. Office Relocation Mr. Caldwell referred members to their packets for the lime green sheet that gave the MCSC new address as of June 1, 2001. Mr. Caldwell then thanked the Governor' s Office for their ten years of support to the MCSC. Mr. Caldwell gave an overview of the national service funding including two new initiatives dealing with the senior corps - The Silver Scholarship and the Veteran's for Youth. The Silver Scholarship regulations were to be published in October and forwarded to commissioners then. Mr. Caldwell stated that he was unfamiliar with the Veteran's for Youth initiative, but would forward information as he receives it. Mr. Caldwell gave an overview of the faith-based initiative. Mr. Caldwell explained that this initiative created criticism from areas that no one expected. There had been discussion in Washington and Mr. Caldwell said he will provide updates as more information becomes available. Mr. Caldwell stated that the Corporation for National Service (CNS) would be meeting and that Dottie Johnson (former MCSC commissioner), currently serving as chair of that organization, would be stepping down and Steve Goldsmith will become the new chair. Mr. Caldwell stated that also enclosed in their packets were reports from Paula Kaiser, (Director ofPrograrns) and Mary Grill (Director of Outreach and Fund Development) along with informational materials. Ms. Grill gave a brief overview of the Governor's Service Award Reception and dinner at the Amway Grand Hotel being held that evening. 7 �VI. Old Business - Chairperson Mawby A. Michigan's Volunteer Investment Grants 1. Study Results Mr. Caldwell explained the results of the study. There is no other program in the nation that combines volunteerism, grant-making, and endowmentbuilding all in one program. Second, the most overwhelming, convincing piece of evidence available was that the graduated match rate did not work as intended and most organizations involved said that the one-to-one match rate was what worked most effectively. Finally, the grantees needed more time in order to meet the grant requirements. 2. StaffRecommendations (approval item) The staff of the MCSC recommended lowering the graduated cash match requirement of the Michigan's Volunteer Investment Grant (VIG) Program to a 1:1 rate for all successful applicants. In addition, staff recommended that the modification be made retroactive to the beginning of the FY 2001 program cycle. A motion to approve the staff recommendation as presented was made by Commissioner Wesaw. Commissioner Collier seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously. VII. New Business- Chairperson Mawby A. MCSC's lOth Anniversary (Fall of2001) Chairperson Mawby announced that in the fall the MCSC would celebrate its 1oth anniversary. Chairperson Mawby suggested expressing thanks to the legislature and the executive branch for creating the MCSC and thanking them for their help in supporting the MCSC over the past ten years. Chairperson Mawby asked Commissioner Pruitt to take the lead in the 1oth Anniversary Celebration and combine it with the fall legislative activity. Chairperson Mawby also asked that Commissioner Cummings and former Commissioner Johnson be involved in this event. B. Nomination to ASC Steering Committee Chairperson Mawby informed everyone that the Association of State Commissions (ASC) asked that someone from the MCSC be nominated to serve on the Steering Committee. Chairperson Mawby stated that after discussion with 8 �Commissioner Pruitt who also serves on the ASC board that they recommend that Mr. Kyle Caldwell be nominated. Commissioner Wesaw made a motion to approve the recommendation to have Kyle Caldwell serve on the ASC and Commissioner Neelis seconded the motion. The motion passed unanimously. Vill. Public Comment Ms. Martha Bottomley thanked the MCSC for approving staff recommendations to lower the Michigan Volunteer Investment Grant Program match. Ms. Bottomley stated her concern that exclusion of previous grantees in the one to one match did not seem totally fair. Ms. Bottomley also stated that the service-learning grant at the MCSC is totally focused on schools and the MCSC should look at CBO's because they do a lot of great work with kids through service-learning. Ms. Bottomley also stated that she had been asked to work with the MCSC in its research efforts in this field. Ms. Kaiser clarified one of the things that the MCSC is doing with the community-based service-learning program. The MCSC is working to develop a participant impact tool that will be used for all of the MCSC Learn & Serve CBO programs. The MCSC will obtain data to determine the impact service-learning programs have in community-based settings. Ms. Kaiser stated that India Plough from the MCSC staff has been working to develop the tool and the MCSC is going to pilot it during the summer of2001 with two to three of the MCSC's programs. Next year all ofthe Learn & Serve CBO grantees will be required to use the final version of the tool. Commissioner Newport moved to adjourn the meeting. Commissioner Wesaw seconded the motion. The meeting was adjourned at 2:45 p.m. 9 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Check out http://thomas.loc.gov/ and review the section on Status ofFY2002 Appropriations Bills if you would like to track the Senate's actions in this area. There are a few important items to note regarding the FY 2002 budget proposed by the Senate. The Senate has "re-funded" the Corporation in response to the action of the U.S . House of Representatives that eliminated the funding for the Corporation. 2. Most programmatic areas of the budget were flat funded or slightly increased to make way for new initiatives. 3. Set asides have increased, further nibbling away at funds available for programming at the state level. Further, it is important to note that these organizations may, for the most part, use these funds at their discretion without any public input whereas states and other national nonprofit organizations must distribute their funding via a peer review process. Set asides from the Senate include: a. $10 million for the Points of Light Foundation, of which $2.5 million will be designated for an endowment to be administered by the Points of Light Foundation. b. $7.5 million for America's Promise: The Alliance for Youth c. $5 million for Communities In Schools d. $2.5 million for YMCA of America e. $1 million for Teach for America f. $1 .5 million for Parents as Teachers 1. �FY 2002 Senate Committee $5,000,000 FY2000 $68,395,000 $80 '000 '000 FY2001 $70 ,000,000 $30 ,000,000 AmeriCorps AC state AC direct technology programs $229,000,000 $189,000,000 $40,000,000 $231 ,000,000 $186,000,000 $40,000,000 $240,492,000 $168,492,000 $47,000,000 $25,000 ,000 Innovation $33,500,000 $28,500,000 $28,488 ,000 Evaluations $5,000,000 $5,000,000 $5,000,000 NCCC $17,892 ,000 $21 ,000,000 $25,000 ,000 Learn & Serve $43,000,000 $43,000,000 $43,000 ,000 Program Administration State Commissions $17,100,000 $10,795,000 $19,400,000 $11 ,600,000 $31 ,000 ,000 POLF $7,471 ,000 $10,000,000 $10,000,000 America's Promise $0 $7,500,000 $7,500,000 girl scouts $0 $5,000,000 National Service Trust recision of funds Communities in Schools $5,000,000 $5,000,000 Parents as Teachers $2 ,500,000 $1 ,500,000 Boys&Girls Clubs $2 ,500,000 Youth Life $1,500,000 Inspector General $4,985,000 $5,000,000 Vet Mission for Youth Program Teach for America sub total of set asides TOTAL $5,000,000 $15,000 ,000 $12,456,000 $437,138,000 $39 ,000,000 $463,500,000 $1 ,000,000 $45,000,000 $415,480,000 �Summary ofNational Service News- Summer 2001 SANTORUM INTRODUCES AMERICORPS REFORM AND CHARITABLE EXPANSION ACT U.S. Senator Rick Santorum (R-PA), Chairman ofthe Senate Republican Conference, has introduced the ArneriCorps Reform and Charitable Expansion Act to expand service opportunities in low-income communities through the ArneriCorps program. The ArneriCorps Reform and Charitable Expansion Act, S. 1352, would increase service opportunities in low-income communities through a voucher system. The individual award or voucher would be for use at charitable organizations predominantly serving the poor. All eligible qualifying charities (consistent with IRS requirements for 501(c)(3)'s) predominantly serving the poor would be eligible locations for service. All receiving locations must comply with the current supervisory and reporting requirements (e.g., web-based reporting system) of the Corporation for National Service.

HUMPHREY CIVIC EDUCATION ENHANCEMENT ACT A dozen Washington, DC-based service-learning and national and community service leaders and enthusiasts met at Senator Paul W ellstone's office last week to learn about and offer comments on Senate Bill1238 --"The Hubert H. Humphrey Civic Education Enhancement Act." In its current form the bill amends one section of the ESEA (Elementary and Secondary Education Act) under "Innovative Education Programs" to include a paragraph on community service programs. It raises the funding found in the National and Community Service Act of 1990 from $45 million to $65 million (for the Corporation for National Service). It authorizes OERI to conduct a study of representative samples of SEAs and LEAs, to evaluate the effectiveness of approaches used in civics education in elementary and secondary schools. Finally, it authorizes, mainly in teacher training and retraining, $25 million for "Civics Institutes" and $10 million for a "Service-Learning Institute."

Four other award winners were also honored including the Mayor of Grand Rapids, John Logie, at an award ceremony last month at the W ege Center for Health and Learning, downtown. A prominent article was featured in the Grand Rapids Press touting the accomplishment. Lawrence-Bums created the Traveling Grannies/Grandpas program as a way for low-income older mothers and fathers to act as mentors for young parents. The program started with grannies helping young moms get health care but then expanded. "In 1999 we changed the focus seeing teen pregnancy declining" Lawrence Burns said. "We learned useful techniques how to be friends with teens and thought 'Why let this information go to waste?"' So today, 27 grannies and grandpas are mentoring kids ages 6 to 19 before they turn to drugs and alcohol or become teen parents. The Ann Arbor News reported that U.S. Senator Debbie Stabenow, D-Lansing, was the keynote speaker at a luncheon saluting volunteers in the Older Adult Services Unit at Catholic Social Services ofWashtenaw County RSVP program. The 700 community volunteers honored at the luncheon received a personal thank you from Senator Stabenow. Also, Senator Stabenow thanked the volunteers for changing the community one person at a time. She stated "RSVP is all about giving. It is wonderful to see and hear about all the places where you are volunteering. I hope you continue for many, many years. You know how one person can make a difference." Hudsons/Dayton Corporation awarded Catholic Social Services of Oakland County Foster Grandparent Program a $3,900.00 grant to support the Foster Grandparent' s "Caring Communities a mentoring project for at Risk" youth in Pontiac and Royal Oak Township. Two representatives from the Hudsons/Dayton Corporation visited the program and interviewed volunteers, staff and the Director. In addition, the representatives reviewed files and impact/outcome results. Dave LeMieux a staff writer with Muskegon Chronicle wrote an article about Volunteer Muskegon RSVP program, Keep Kids In School "KKIS." The program called KKIS for short will combine the effort of RSVP volunteers, the Muskegon Public Schools, the Muskegon Police Department, the Muskegon County Prosecutor's office, and the Westshore Dispute Resolution Center. Verizon Wireless has donated eight cell phones to the program. RSVPs will drive around the neighborhoods and report truants they spot to �Muskegon Police. Truancy is a growing problem in Muskegon, where there were 235 students absent two times a week at one school alone. Since the program started six weeks ago, 18 students were returned to the schools, 11 ofthe students were given notices to appear with their parents to sign contracts with the prosecuting attorney's office to no longer skip school, and they were assigned community service. "The students who fail to meet the contract's conditions also face referral to juvenile court. "The goal isn't to make criminals of parents or children. The goal is to get them back in school because you can't learn if you're not in school stated Brett Gardner, Muskegon County Assistant Prosecutor." AMERICORPS*VISTA: Rolling Readers Mid Michigan Chapter AmeriCorps*VISTA Project in Laingsburg, Michigan, announced the following empirical data for K-3 participants in the Rolling Readers Tutor USA Program after a full or partial year placement in the program: GRADE Grade 1 Grade 3 Improvement Level 19 percentile points Grade 2 14 percentile points 23 percentile points As for individual student impact, they have a number of students who have moved from being non-readers to being fluent readers at grade level. Students who have "graduated" from the program are asking the staff if they can become tutors. One student, who at the end of second grade, was very insecure about his reading, recently volunteered to read in front of a group of thirty two high school students and a roomful of community volunteers. The purpose was a demonstration for a volunteer training in how to record reading errors, make observations, and tutorial decisions. Follow up discussion included educational standards, comparison of students, affective needs of non-readers, and the societal attitudes towards reading failure. Kent County Literacy Council AmeriCorps*VISTA Project in Grand Rapids, Michigan, developed a unique collaboration with their local Goodwill Industries. They set up literacy programming for Family Independence Agency (FIA)s who are unemployed and on disability, but who could potentially go back to work. The Literacy Project provided one class of English as a Second Language instruction, several sessions for parents on how to improve the reading skills of their children, and one-on-one tutoring. VISTA member J o Ann Carney did not provide any instruction, but she did establish the program, the coordination between agencies, the record-keeping system for the FIA client, and the billing for each client. Because the Literacy Council subcontracted with Goodwill to provide this service, additional badly needed funding for the Literacy Council was secured as a consequence. It is hoped and expected that this program will be duplicated again in the near future, and hopefully become ongoing. �FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE July 31, 2001 CONTACT: Sandy Scott sscott@cns.gov 202-606-5000 ext. 255 President Bush Sends Nomination for National Service Chief to Senate Scholar and Service Champion Leslie Lenkowsky to Head Volunteer Agency (Washington, D.C.)- Today President Bush sent to the Senate his nomination of Dr. Leslie Lenkowsky of Indianapolis, Ind., to be Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation for National Service. The Corporation administers AmeriCorps, the National Senior Service Corns, and Learn and Serve America, programs which engage 1.5 million Americans annually in service to meet community needs. Lenkowsky is a leading scholar on philanthropy and volunteering, and has been active in bipartisan efforts to advance national service for more than a decade. Former President Clinton twice appointed him to serve on the Corporation's board of directors, and former President George H. W. Bush named him to the Corporation's predecessor agency, the Commission on National and Community Service. "I am deeply honored by the President's plan to nominate me," said Lenkowsky. "As a board member for eight years, I have seen national service become a powerful force for changing lives and improving communities. If confmned, I look forward to fulfilling the President's vision of invigorating citizenship and helping those whom prosperity has left behind, while making national service even more effective and successful," Lenkowsky said. Lenkowsky has served since 1997 as a professor of philanthropic studies and public policy at Indiana University/Purdue University in Indianapolis. He is also a research associate of The Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University. From 199.0 to 1997, Lenkowsky served as President ofthe Hudson Institute and from 1985 to 1990, he served as the President of the Institute for Educational Affairs. He is a graduate of Franklin and Marshall College and received a Ph.D. from Harvard University. "I have known Les for a long time, and I think the President has made a tremendous choice," said Stephen Goldsmith, chair of the Corporation's board and special advisor to President Bush on faithbased and community initiatives. "Les is a national leader in philanthropy and service who will bring a wealth of insight and �experience to this position," said Goldsmith. President Bush has made citizen service and civic renewal a priority of his administration. In his Inaugural Address, he called on Americans to be "citizens, not spectators; responsible citizens, building communities of service and a nation of character." In his second week in office, he launched a major initiative to increase support for faith-based and community organizations to meet social needs. His 2002 budget continues and expands the Corporation and its programs. The budget requests $733 million to support service-learning, continue AmeriCorps at 50,000 members per year, and expand opportunities for senior service including new programs to involve seniors and veterans in tutoring youth. "Les Lenkowsky's nomination is a great milestone for national service, demonstrating the truly bipartisan nature of these programs, including AmeriCorps," said Harris Wofford, former Senator (D-PA) and the Corporation's Chief Executive Officer from 1995 through 2001. "Les has been with National Service from the beginning as a thoughtful, constructive, devoted board member. Now he will be the strong, steady leader needed to take national service to a new level of success," Wofford said. Created in 1993, the Corporation provides grant support and people power to thousands of nonprofit, faith-based, civic and educational organizations to develop or expand innovative approaches to community needs. These organization range from small community groups to America's largest nonprofits including Habitat for Humanity, Boys and Girls Clubs, and the American Red Cross. More than 6,000 AmeriCorps members and 45,000 Senior Corps volunteers serve with faith-based organizations such as the Catholic Network for Volunteer Service, Lutheran Social Services and the National Jewish Coalition for Literacy. Lenkowsky's nomination was commended by leaders in the nonprofit community. "Les Lenkowsky is a noted expert and scholar in the field of philanthropy and nonprofit service," said Sara E. Melendez, President and CEO of Independent Sector. "We look forward to working with the Corporation for National Service under his leadership to advance the spirit of volunteerism and community service throughout the country." Lenkowsky has published more than 150 articles, reviews and chapters, and is a frequent speaker to educational and philanthropic groups throughout the United States. At the Center on Philanthropy at Indiana University, in conjunction with the Fund for American Studies, Lenkowsky created a unique Summer Institute on Philanthropy and Voluntary Service for college students. Believed to be the only one of its kind in the nation, the institute is an intensive, six-week residential program helping student volunteers better understand philanthropy and explore nonprofit career options through academic programs, internships, and community service. �"Through years of study and first-hand experience, Les understands as well as anyone the immense power of service to create involved citizens and help solve our nation's problems," said Thomas Erhlich, Senior Fellow at the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. "With his sharp mind, big heart and deep commitment, Les will make an outstanding CEO." For the full release visit the White House website at whitehouse.gov/news.

National and Community Service Policy 24.1 Preamble Under the leadership of the nation's Governors, states and localities have played a preeminent role in leading a renewed national commitment to civic renewal in this country through national service and volunteerism. Across the states, men, women, and children are working together to meet many of the nation's pressing social and environmental needs and are vital resources in solving some of its most difficult problems. The Governors recognize the role that community service and volunteers play in meeting the enormous challenges facing the nation while working to connect citizens through service. They applaud those individuals and recognize their personal commitment to improving the lives of others. This spirit of civic renewal is an essential unifying component of the fabric of the nation. The Governors also believe that community service programs provide substantial opportunities and benefits to both the providers and those who are served. Citizens who participate in these programs develop new skills and have an opportunity to make a personal connection with their own communities while giving assistance to individuals and communities, often during critical times of need. 24.2 Principles The Governors build, support, and promote public-private partnerships to promote an ethic of service that encourages citizens to serve in meaningful ways that refle~t the real needs of communities, states, and the nation. The Governors remain steadfast in their desire to continue their work to strengthen a national service network that is guided by the following principles. • Promote a strong partnership among federal, state, and local governments, as well as the volunteer, philanthropic, education, and business communities, to emphasize the importance ofbuilding connections among citizens to combat isolationism and promote communitywide involvement.Recognize the multitude of related federal, state, and local programs and seek to streamline and integrate such programs into a comprehensive network. • Encourage creativity and diversity among service programs so that citizens of all ages have the opportunity to participate. • Assist in enabling individuals and programs to achieve their goals. • Support ensuring that the nation's future is stewarded by individuals who, while in their youth, were granted access to fundamental and vital resources, including an ongoing mentoring relationship with a caring adult, a safe place and structured activities to live and grow, a healthy start, marketable skills through effective education, and an opportunity to give back through their own service to their communities. • Utilize the unique flexibility of national and volunteer service mechanisms, including state service commissions, to build an ethic of service to community among citizens of all ages. Based on these principles, the Governors offer the following recommendations. 24.3 Recommendations �The Governors recommend that the federal government recognize the key role played by states in national and community service in the following ways. • Recognize the key role that Governors and states play in promoting and providing service opportunities. • Provide states with the maximum flexibility to act as the primary facilitator of quality programs to ensure coordination, public-private cooperation, and sustained resources. • Continue to foster and support gubernatorial leadership in involving interested people and organizations, including nonprofit, faith-based, philanthropic, and community-based organizations, the private sector, and others, in developing statewide strategies for community problemsolving through service and volunteerism. • Provide adequate resources to support high-quality national and community service programs on a fair and competitive basis. 24.4 Federal-State-Local Partnership The Governors recommend that the federal government take the following steps. • Reauthorize the National and Community Service Trust Act with modifications that address the issues of duplication, insufficient resources, and maximum flexibility and accountability. • Provide adequate and stable federal support for state and local service programs with maximum flexibility and a minimum of federal procedures or regulations. • Provide a basic administrative funding allocation to all state commissions and allocate additional administrative resources based on federal grant funding rather than population. • Ensure that all federal support for community service and volunteer programs pass through a gubematorially appointed state-level service commission or other state agency as deemed appropriate by the Governor. • Coordinate federal allocations for national and community service programs to national or multistate nonprofit organizations through Governors. • Make funds available to local communities through states to encourage innovative programs that leverage state, private, and nonprofit resources, including in-kind contributions. • Provide points of focus at the state and federal levels to disseminate information about service and volunteer programs to assist state and local governments and groups, individuals, and nonprofit organizations. • Collect, evaluate, and disseminate information on model programs to promote citizen and organizational involvement in community service and volunteerism and support local involvement in, and commitment to, community service. • Allocate federal funds to states for demonstration initiatives that provide Governors the flexibility and opportunity to showcase innovative models that work to solve community problems through service and volunteerism. The Governors believe strongly in the value of community service in that it benefits both the provider and the recipient while creating connections for individuals to their respective communities. They want to provide all citizens with a variety of flexible opportunities that will enable them to contribute to their community throughout their lives.

PROMOTE VOLUNTEERISM V olunteerism and community service have been a strong and important tradition in America ever since its founding. Across the country, faithbased groups, national and local nonprofit organizations are on the front lines, working to improve lives in some of the hardest pressed communities in America. Americans are volunteering 20 percent more than they did 20 years ago-and seniors are responsible for nearly all of this increase. Senior Americans are increasingly eager to contribute their time and talents. Working in partnership with States and local organizations, which are closest to the needs of Americans, the President proposes that the Federal Government do more to facilitate service opportunities for seniors. The President believes that retirement should be a time of economic security and physical well being and should also provide seniors more opportunities to serve their communities. Expanding Opportunities for Senior Service The population of older adults is growing rapidly, and it is expected that the aging of the baby boomers will accelerate this growth. The number of individuals aged 65 or older is estimated to double from 35 million to nearly 70 million in 2030. Seniors today are living longer than ever before, and can often anticipate up to 30 years of productive postretirement years. The principal Federal vehicle for senior volunteerism is the National Senior Service Corps (NSSC), which was established in 1973. The program is now part of the Corporation for National and Community Service, a publicly and privately funded entity that works with nonprofits, faithbased groups, schools, and other ctvtc organizations to provide opportunities for Americans of all ages to serve their communities. The Senior Corps uses the talents, skills, and expenences of more than 500,000 older Americans to help solve local problems. Members help meet a wide range of community needs, serve one-on-one with young people with special needs and help other seniors live independently in their homes. The NSSC consists of the Retired and Senior Volunteer Program, the Foster Grandparent Program, and the Senior Companion Program. The budget helps ensure that opportunities for seniors to serve their communities and schools will be increased to accommodate the demand of the growing aging population and the changing nature of retirement. The budget supports three new initiatives in the Corporation to help increase service opportunities for America 's seniors. Increasing the Senior Corps Funding: The budget provides $203 million for the NSSC, a $14 million increase over 2001 and the first step of the President's five-year strategy to increase the annual funding for the Senior Corps to $250 million by the end of five years. This level will expand opportunities for an additional 17,000 senior volunteers to help meet the needs of children and frail adults in communities across the country. Establishing the Silver Scholarship Program: A new initiative, the Silver Scholarship program, will allow older Americans to volunteer 500 hours of service tutoring and mentoring students in after-school programs in exchange for a $1 ,000 scholarship that can be deposited in an education savings account for use by their children, grandchildren, or another child. The budget includes $20 million for 10,000 Silver Scholarships. Providing Service Opportunities for America's Veterans: The budget provides $15 million to establish the Veterans Mission for Youth program. The program will provide matching grants to community organizations that connect veterans and retired military personnel with America's youth through mentoring, tutoring, after-school and other programs. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

While in office, no other Michigan Governor has demonstrated as much support for the nonprofit sector and the volunteers that make up the workforce for this sector than John Engler. No other First Lady has demonstrated a willingness and ability to lead, as has our own Michelle Engler. Their efforts have produced one of the nation's first state commissions on service, the nation's only state-funded volunteer resource center endowment grant, a host of national service programs, a premiere volunteer recognition program and a series of meetings and conferences to discuss how government can do its work better for our state's volunteer sector. Finally, through their championing the work of the MCSC, the Michigan Legislature has provided its support through codifying legislation and annual appropriations of $2 million in state funding.

After November of2002, no member of the Michigan House of Representatives will have been in office when the MCSC was formed. The Governor and First Lady will not have the name Engler and the Senate will have only a handful of members returning from the previous body.

As many of you are aware, the MCSC is celebrating its lOth anniversary this year. To commemorate this milestone, we are planning an event to thank Michigan Legislators for their past support and encourage their ongoing support. So please mark your calendars. Here are the details to date: Date: Thursday, October 4, 2001 Place: Lansing- State Capitol, 1st Floor Rotunda Time: Open House - 8 a.m. - 2 p.m. Main program- 11 a.m.- 1 p.m. (agenda to be determined) What: The open house will consist of booth/table top displays of the MCSC and its key programs throughout the 1st Floor Rotunda and the adjoining hallway. Staff and program representatives will be present to discuss MCSC's accomplishments and goals with attendees. A continental breakfast buffet followed by an hors d'oeuvres lunch buffet will be served. The main program is still being determined and will most likely consist of a private meeting with Mrs. Engler, key legislators, and Commissioners followed by a formal presentation (media invited) in the Rotunda. More details will be coming in the near future. If you have questions in the meantime, please feel free to contact me at 517-335-7875 or at grillm@state.mi.us. Thank you. We are looking forward to your involvement at this event! �PROFESSIONAL COACHING EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Definition of Coaching Professional coaching is an ongoing partnership between the MCSC and a marketing expert who serves as a "coach" that will help the MCSC produce professional results in the development and implementation of a marketing and communication plan. The coach's responsibility is to: 1. Assist the MCSC in setting and reaching marketing and communication goals. 2. Serve as a resource and expert in the area of communications, marketing, and public relations. 3. Elicit solutions and strategies with the MCSC staff, partners, and others around marketing and communication plan development. 4. Hold the MCSC as responsible and accountable for development and implementation of a marketing plan that is in line with the organization's vision and future direction. 5. Provide tools, structure, and support to reach the goal of marketing the organization effectively. Ongoing Implementation of Plan The initial coaching plan is designed and structured around a three month time period to allow the MCSC the opportunity to evaluate the coaching process and program benefits. It is recommended that the coaching process continue for a minimum of three to six additional months if the MCSC is satisfied with the direction and progress toward goals. A three-month timeline is outlined below. Benefits of Coaching for the MCSC It is cost effective. Because the MCSC staff will be responsible for the development of the plan with the support and assistance of a marketing coach, the process is very cost effective. It is estimated that the cost will be approximately three times less than would be spent by hiring an outside firm or consultant. In addition, the MCSC will not only have an excellent marketing plan but will also have a staff member who has gained extensive experience and know-how in marketing and communication plan development and implementation. The MCSC's plan will be OUR plan, not an outside plan imposed on us. Professional coaches will work with the MCSC to develop a marketing and communication program from inside the MCSC, fully integrating it with the mission, vision and structure, as well as the current budget and staff. Because of this, the MCSC will be invested in the program, and the plan is much more likely to succeed than one that originates from the outside. Three Month Time Line MONTH#l • • • Study the MCSC's future direction white paper and summarize into a working outline to get "marching orders" for overall MCSC action plan. Educate professional coaches about the MCSC, its structure, people and programs. Survey all current promotion programs and deliver a current activity report. �• • Based on the information obtained above, analyze the agency's marketing strengths and weaknesses. Assist in the planning of the 1Oth Anniversary celebration. MONTH#2 • Define marketing objectives, target markets and initial plan of action for a one-year program. • Determine the need for additional market research and initiate it, if needed. • Begin developing an easily understood statement to describe the mission, vision and operations ofthe MCSC (editorial backgrounder). • 1oth Anniversary celebration. MONTH#3 • Complete market research. • Integrate research results with marketing plan. • Implement 1Oth Anniversary celebration. • Pilot events that are in line with the direction of the MCSC marketing plan development. • Write final draft ofbackgrounder. • Draft initial marketing plan. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

This event is an opportunity for the MCSC to thank Michigan's legislators for past support and encourage their ongoing support. Save-the-date post cards were distributed to the legislators, commissioners, and other friends of the MCSC in late August. The event program is as follows: lOth • • • Open house: 8:00a.m.- 2:00p.m. in the State Capitol 1st Floor Rotunda.

Media Event and Presentation: 11 :45 a.m. in the State Capitol 1st Floor Rotunda. This event will include brief remarks by Mrs. Engler, Dr. Mawby, and others; it will also include the presentation of a Governor's Proclamation to Dr. Mawby on behalf of the MCSC.

This event will provide an opportunity for commissioners, including Mrs. Engler, to discuss the work of the MCSC with key legislators, to thank them for their past support, and to ask them for their ongoing support. The key time for commissioner participation is 11 :00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. although commissioners are welcome to participate in activities throughout the day. Commissioner Briefing Books At the upcoming retreat, each commissioner will receive an informational booklet highlighting the Michigan legislators and MCSC programs within their individual geographic area. This tool will be instrumental to all commissioners as they prepare to meet legislators at the 10111 Anniversary Celebration and throughout the year at other MCSC events. �Make A Difference Day Make A Difference Day is Saturday, October 27, 2001 and the MCSC is once again facilitating the Make A Difference Day (MDDay) activities in Michigan. The number ofMDDay partner organizations increased to eight this year when the Michigan Office of the Corporation for National Service joined the initiative. In addition to the MCSC and CNS, the other statewide partner organizations are: Council of Michigan Foundations, Michigan Association of United Ways, Michigan Campus Compact, Michigan Family Independence Agency, Michigan State University Extension, and Volunteer Centers of Michigan. The MD Day planning packets, containing all the information needed to develop, implement, and register a MDDay project, are currently available at the MCSC and will be distributed to all commissioners at the September 10-11 retreat. The first of three MD Day press releases announcing the availability ofMDDay planning packets will be distributed by August 31st. Governor's Service Awards The gth Annual Governor's Service Awards (GSA) reception and dinner was held on Monday, May 21, 2001 at the Amway Grand Plaza in Grand Rapids. In keeping with tradition, the awards dinner was held in conjunction with the Grantmakers/Grantseekers conference. Ameritech was again the exclusive sponsor of the GSA dinner and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Michigan and Blue Care Network sponsored the reception. A special thank you goes to Russ Mawby for assisting Mrs. Engler with the award presentations as inclement weather kept Governor Engler stranded out of town. Nomination information is available for the 9th Annual Governor's Service Awards, which are tentatively scheduled for April 30, 2001. There has been one category change for next year' s celebration - the Media category has been eliminated due to inadequate nominations during the past five years. Youth Poster Contest The winners of the Youth Poster Contest, Joshua Bannow, Joe Mason and Cristopher Vaughan (seniors from Three Rivers High School), assisted Mrs. Engler in unveiling the winning design during the Governor's Service Awards on May 21st. There were 266 posters entered in the contest by Michigan middle, junior high and senior high school students. The students worked in teams of2- 4 to create the posters and more than 760 students participated. The winning poster was selected through a youth-driven peer review process. A special thank you to Commissioner Cummings for the Lovelight Foundation's dollar-fordollar match for the Youth Poster Contest funds. Lovelight's generous contribution of$5,000 allowed the poster contest to be self-supporting for the first time since its inception over five years ago. Our sincere thanks also go out to Commissioners Collier, Kwak, Mawby, and Wesaw for their contributions. Information for the 2002 Youth Poster Contest will be available by January 1, 2002. 2 �MYPAC On June gth, the MYPAC Executive Council met at Oakland University to review the MYPAC applications for the 2001-2002 program year. There were 20 new applications submitted and 16 ofthese applications were accepted. This brings the total number ofMYPAC members to 29. The following day, the MYP AC Executive Council participated in the AmeriCorps Signature Service Project held in Pontiac. On August 3-5 the 2001-2002 MYPAC Leadership Retreat was held at the Ralph A. MacMullan Conference Center at Higgins Lake. The retreat is the annual kick-off for new and returning MYPAC members to start offtheir program year. It provides members with an opportunity to strengthen their service efforts by meeting other youth dedicated to service from across the state. They set goals, shared ideas, and gained new insights to take back to their communities. The retreat was the initial activity for the new YES Ambassador, Ezra Bell. (See the Staffing Issues section ofthis report for additional details on Ezra Bell.) MCSC Chair, Russ Mawby, joined the retreat on August 4th to congratulate the MYP AC members on their commitment to service, provide direction for and support of their efforts, and gather input from them on how the MCSC could enhance its efforts on behalf of youth. Training materials have been sent to all MYP AC members who were unable to attend the retreat and a follow up conference call with these individuals was held on August 2ih . Michigan's Promise Approximately eight AmeriCorps Promise Fellows attended the National Community Service Conference that was held June 29- July 1, 2001 in Minneapolis. Once again, America's Promise was a partner of this conference and an America's Promise track was held. A special thank you to Mrs. Engler for securing five free tickets from Northwest Airlines to assist the Promise Fellows in attending this conference. The Promise Fellows gathered substantial information at this conference that will be beneficial to Michigan's Communities of Promise. This information was distributed in a Michigan's Promise resource mailing that was distributed to all Promise contacts in mid-August. Michigan's Communities of Promise continue to participate in bi-monthly conference calls. These calls include a national update from America's Promise staff, a statewide update from MCSC staff, and an opportunity for Community of Promise contacts to discuss issues, share ideas, and celebrate accomplishments. Attached you will fmd the most recent edition of The Link, the bi-monthly newsletter highlighting statewide and local Michigan's Promise activities. The Link, which was written and edited by Mary Ann Williams, the AmeriCorps Promise Fellow housed at the MCSC as a loaned executive from CMF, is faxed to all Communities of Promise, Michigan's AmeriCorps Promise Fellows and site supervisors, Emerging Communities ofPromise, and other Michigan's Promise partners. 3 �Disability Project Linda Adam, the Disability Coordinator housed at the MCSC as a loaned executive from the Council of Michigan Foundations, has been broadening the disability awareness knowledge base ofMCSC staff and programs. Her efforts are focused in three primary areas: • • • Research - she is creating an extensive library of resources, both in hard copy and electronically that is being utilized by staff and grantees. Outreach - she is continuing to build the Disability Advisory Committee so that members become immersed in the work of the MCSC and the MCSC becomes engaged in the wide variety of disability organizations throughout Michigan. Grantee awareness and assistance- she serves as an invaluable resource to the MCSC grantees and other programs by providing direction, support, and assistance on individual matters affecting programs and members. Linda is also conducting friendly site visits to get to know the needs of the programs and to ensure that the services provided are meeting these needs. MCSC Web Site The State of Michigan has developed web site guidelines that all state agencies will have to comply with during the next 12- 18 months. For this reason, the MCSC has terminated its contract with Trillium Teamo1ogies for web site development and will be utilizing staff of the Michigan Department of Career Development to revamp the MCSC web site. This transition has caused a slight delay in the development of the web site, but will result in a product that meets the needs of the MCSC and meets the State ofMichigan guidelines. MCSC staff, grantees, partner organizations, commissioners, and other friends of the organization have provided input into the development of the new site via surveys. This feedback will be seriously considered in the development of the new site. It is anticipated that the new site will be functional by January 2002. ConnectMichigan The summer issue of the ConnectMichigan newsletter was printed and mailed in July and highlights volunteer efforts of faith-based organizations. To keep in line with the MCSC's new focus of promoting its own projects, programs and activities instead of"the field" in general, this will be the last issue of the ConnectMichigan newsletter. Whether a new MCSC-focused newsletter is developed will depend upon the direction ofthe MCSC's new marketing plan. The development of the MCSC marketing plan is discussed in detail in the Public Relations and Marketing Committee report. Staff On August 15 1\ Jill Manlove completed her service as a YES Ambassador at the MCSC. The YES Ambassador program is a partnership between the Points of Light Foundation and the MCSC promoting youth service and youth as leaders. The YES Ambassador position is a oneyear commitment that has the potential to be renewed for a second year. Jill Manlove was a YES Ambassador at the MCSC for two years and had made significant progress in developing youth service and youth leaders throughout Michigan. We would like to thank Jill for her excellent service to the MCSC and wish her all the best in her future endeavors. 4 �Ezra Bell, the new YES Ambassador, began his position on August 151 • Ezra is a 23-year-old male who is taking a year off from Western Michigan University to serve as YES Ambassador. Originally from the Detroit area, Ezra has experience in leadership and youth development through his work with the WMU Division of Minority Affairs and as a WMU resident assistant and assistant director. (Ezra's resume and other YES Ambassador applicant information are attached.) The contract for the Communications Coordinator, Maria Santana, will not be renewed at the end ofthis program year. With the development ofthe new marketing plan, the MCSC staff feels the funds allotted for this position would be better utilized by contractors for layout and design and for the development and implementation of other marketing projects. Maria's term of service will end with the fiscal year on September 30, 2001. 5 � 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: Members of the Michigan Community Service Commission FROM: Pat O'Day Chair, Public Relations & Marketing Ad Hoc Subcommittee RE: Report of the Public Relations & Marketing Ad Hoc Subcommittee DATE: Thursday, September 06,2001 Goals of the Committee The Public Relations & Marketing Committee is an ad hoc subcommittee of the Communication & Outreach Committee, a standing committee of the MCSC, that works to address the public relations and marketing needs of the MCSC and its grantees. Specifically, the goals ofthe committee are to: • • • • Identify the MCSC stakeholder and their interests Determine the best way to communicate the work and accomplishment of the MCSC and its grantees to the general public and other target populations. Recommend strategies for addressing the MCSC communication needs. Identify and invite potential partners and collaborators to participate in MCSC marketing activities. The members ofthis subcommittee are Commissioners O'Day (chair), Pardoe, Pickard, and Pruitt. Activity to Date The Public Relations & Marketing Committee has met monthly via conference call. To date, the committee has: �• Had conversations with key organizations and community partners to gather information regarding the development and implementation of marketing plans in similar organizations. • Recommended that an organizational assessment be the first step in developing a marketing plan. • Analyzed the use of student interns in the development of a marketing plan and has recommended that interns not be used in the development of the plan, but perhaps in the implementation of the plan where appropriate. • Identified the importance of legislators as a key component of the MCSC marketing plan. • Recommended that a new logo be developed for the MCSC. • Identified the MCSC key markets as individuals who volunteer, volunteer organizations, grant-making organizations, potential grantees, and other nonprofit organizations. • Supported the approach identified in the MCSC vision paper: 1) MCSC as a granting organization, and 2) MCSC as an information resource to the nonprofit field. • Recommended that the MCSC expand the availability of on-line resources on its web page. • Recognized the important role that all Commissioners can play in the implementation of the marketing plan and continues to work to identify the specifics of ongoing roles of Commissioners. Development of Marketing Plan The Public Relations and Marketing Committee recommends that the MCSC utilize "professional coaching" for the development and implementation of its marketing plan. Through the process of coaching, the MCSC staff will work with a marketing expert who will coach them through the development and implementation of a marketing plan. Through professional coaching, the MCSC will realize cost benefits and accelerated implementation. This will result in a marketing plan that is developed from inside the MCSC, fully integrating it with the mission, vision and structure, as well as the current budget and staff. Because of this, the MCSC will be highly invested in the program, and the plan is much more likely to succeed than one that originates from the outside. Please see the attached Professional Coaching Executive Summary for more details including a timeline. What Commissioners Can Do The Commissioners will play a key role in the organizational assessment that is the first step in the development of a marketing plan. As the MCSC works with Rx Coaching to develop and implement the assessment, it is expected that the Commissioners will be surveyed for their �insights and will also consult with other organizations and friends to gain insight into outside perspectives of the MCSC. Commissioner input will also be sought to determine some of the key components of the MCSC marketing plan. Upon completion of the plan, Commissioners will have an ongoing role that is yet to be determined. � 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: Members of the Michigan Community Service Commission FROM: Paula Kaiser, Director of Programs Michigan Community Service Commission RE: Program Division Director's Report DATE: August 28, 2001 Enclosed for your review is my program division update of our recent accomplishments and upcoming activities. Michigan's AmeriCorps Program Update For the 2001-02 Michigan's AmeriCorps application process, the Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) implemented a planning grant phase. The purpose of the planning grants is to give new grantees three months to plan and put the necessary systems in place to operate their Michigan's AmeriCorps program. During the planning grant phase the six new programs were assigned a mentor from a successful existing AmeriCorps program to assist them through the development stage. We are currently concluding our first round of planning grants and are pleased to report positive feedback from both the mentors and planning grantees. The MCSC is in the process of collective written feedback on the planning grant phase and will provide that feedback in future reports. Michigan 's AmeriCorps Signature Projects Every summer the Michigan's AmeriCorps programs hosts two statewide Signature Service Projects. The purpose of the projects is to engage members from around the state in a day of training and a day of service. This year the projects took place in Pontiac on June 8 & 9, and in Marquette on June 22 & 23, 2001. The MCSC partnered with the City of Pontiac, and two local non-profits to get things done on Saturday, June 9111 • Roughly 250 members were involved in painting park fences, planting shrubbery and beautifying two ofPontiac's community centers �and parks. In Marquette, 150 AmeriCorps members spent the day of service on KI Sawyer, a former air base that was closed five years ago. Members worked with community residents to turn the base into a thriving community. A special thanks to Commissioner Patricia O'Day for her assistance in planning the project and providing the history behind the KI Sawyer community. Member Survey The MCSC seeks to collect enhanced information about the 900 individuals who participate in Michigan's AmeriCorps programs each year. Currently, minimal data is collected (beyond the program level) about the background and experience of AmeriCorps members--particularly since the collection of CNS administered enrollment and exit forms has ceased. MCSC wishes to remedy this by initiating its own statewide data collection process via the administration of two surveys to be completed by all AmeriCorps members. These surveys will shed light on the type of individual who participates in AmeriCorps, his/her perceptions about community and expectations of the program; and finally how such perceptions and expectations are impacted by the AmeriCorps term of service. This data collected will be utilized to improve program recruitment efforts, to better understand the impact of AmeriCorps upon members, to refine program development information, and for reporting and public relations purposes. Staff Transition In my last report I indicated that Beth Barney, one of our Michigan's AmeriCorps program coordinator would be leaving the commission to pursue a masters degree. Beth departed MCSC on July 27, 2001. In addition, Bill Heuer, the second Michigan's AmeriCorps program coordinator left the commission on August 17, 2001. Michael Freeman, the MCSC training and technical assistance coordinator will now being serving as one of the Michigan's AmeriCorps program coordinators. I am currently soliciting resumes and intend to have the position filled by November 1, 2001. Upcoming Event - Member Celebration On November 13,2001, the MCSC will host the third annual Michigan's AmeriCorps Member Celebration in Lansing. The event will gather more than 300 AmeriCorps members for a day of orientation, training, and networking. The day will culminate with the members being officially sworn in. We encourage commissioners to attend the event and meet the hundreds of individuals who are giving a year of their life to make a difference in Michigan communities. Additional information will be sent out in October. Learn & Serve- Michigan Learn & Serve-Michigan School-Based Program 2001-02 Application Process For the 2001-02 program year the MCSC has $750,000 available to fund school-based service learning programs. The MCSC revised the application guidelines for the 2001-02 program year to realign funding toward our overall goals of increasing the scope and quality of academic service-leirrning. School districts were able to apply for three different categories of funding: planning, implementation, and CHESP. Please see the attached memo for the stafffunding recommendations. �Learn & Serve-Michigan Community-Based Grant Program 2001- 02 Application Process for the 2001-02-program year the MCSC has $160,000 available to fund community-based service learning programs. The MCSC revised the application guidelines for the 2001-02 program year to realign funding toward our overall goals of increasing the scope and quality of communitybased service-learning. Community-based organizations were able to apply for up to $15,000 to operate a service-learning program. Please see the attached memo for the stafffunding recommendations. Service-Learning Research The MCSC is currently contracting with RMC Research Corporation out of Denver, Colorado to conduct a two-year study entitled" The Impact of Service-Learning on the MEAP: Large Scale Study of Michigan Learn and Serve Grantees. The proposed study will address what is the association between participation in service-learning and academic achievement, as measured by the Michigan Educational Assessment Program (MEAP) for students in schools that receive Learn and Serve-Michigan funds . The study will review the impact of service-learning specific to the academic are addressed by the service-learning project. Service-Learning Featured at the Governor's Education Summit On September 7, 2001, Commissioner Chris Kwak will facilitate a panel workshop on servicelearning at the Governor's Education Summit. The session will discuss how teachers, students and administrators have been able to use service-learning to achieve learning objectives and make connections to other local educational goals including MEAP scores, civics, knowledge retention and more. Presenters will provide perspectives ranging from integrating servicelearning into the curriculum to the reflections of students experiences. Volunteer Investment Grants MG) FY 2001 VIG Update Last year the board issued the MCSC staff the authority to increase the amount of grants issued to current grantees. The board requested that we keep them updated on the increase the staff has approved. Please see the chart below for the increase the staff has approved over the last quarter. Grantee Name United Way Volunteer Connections Original Amount $25,000 New Grant Amount $50,000 Heart of West Michigan United Way Volunteer Center $50,000 $100,000 Hillsdale County Volunteer Resource Center $25,000 $41,500 Jackson Nonprofit Support Center $75,000 $100,000 In addition to the above increases, the staff received applications from the Volunteer Centers of Michigan and the Michigan Campus Compact to provide training and technical assistance to current and potential Michigan's Volunteer Investment Grant recipients. The staff is currently negotiating with both organizations and will present the funding recommendations in a supplemental mailing to the board. �Michigan's AmeriCorps Promise Fellows Program Update In June, the MCSC submitted an application to the Corporation for National Service for another year of support for the Michigan's AmeriCorps Promise Fellows program. The Corporation has approved our application at the requested amount for $177,000 to support 15 promise fellows. The MCSC will be conducting an application process in the fall to distribute the 15 fellows. The staff will present their funding recommendations to the board at the December meeting. Program Transition The Michigan's AmeriCorps Promise Fellows program will be part of the Michigan' s Promise effort that is transferred to the Connect Michigan Alliance. Currently the staff members from both organizations are working out the details of the transition. At this point in time it appears that the transfer ofthe promise fellow program will occur during the 2002-03 program year. It does not appear as if the Alliance will have staff hired in time to assume the administration of the program before the beginning ofthe 2001-02 program year. Therefore, the MCSC staffwill administer the program for the next program year. Training and Technical Assistance As noted earlier, Michael Freeman transitioned from being the training and technical assistance coordinator to the Michigan's AmeriCorps program officer position. The transfer occurred on July 30, 2001. I will being serving as the interim training coordinator until the position is filled. We are currently soliciting resumes and intend to have the position filled by November 1, 2001. Upcoming training activities include submitting our annual training and technical assistance plan to the Corporation for National Service on November 1, 2001. We are currently developing our comprehensive training calendar for the next year to include with our plan. In addition, we are currently exploring the possibility of convening all national service programs in Michigan the day before the 2002 Volunteerism SuperConference. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

Capitol Avenue George W. Romney Building 4th Floor Lansing, Michigan 48913 JUL 3 0 2001 Dear Governor Engler, I am writing to express my interest in serving the citizens of Michigan through an appointment to the Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC). My involvement in the world of volunteering began when I was a young child and I volunteered with my family, and with the Girl Scouts. Those early experiences laid the foundation for what has become a life long commitment to community engagement and Volunteer Service. Since 1997, I have been the Executive Director of the Volunteer Center of Battle Creek. During this time, I have provided leadership in implementing the Calhoun County Corporate Volunteer Council, Family Matters (a family volunteering program developed by the Points of Light Foundation), the Institute for Advanced Studies in Volunteer Management (the first ofit's kind in North America), and continue to work diligently to bring the 211 dialing code for access to health and human services to Calhoun County. My work to strengthen volunteerism in my local community uniquely qualifies me to serve on the MCSC. Recently, Kyle approached me about serving on the MCSC in an effort to provide a voice for Volunteer Centers and to deepen the MCSC's quality of programming. As a Board Member of the Volunteer Center National Network Council, and as Chairperson of Volunteer Centers of Michigan, I feel confident that my experience and knowledge of Volunteer Center's and the significant role they play in communities across the country would be of benefit to the MCSC. It is with this in mind that I indicated to Kyle that I would ask to be considered for a seat on the MCSC. I have enclosed a copy of my resume for your consideration and look forward to hearing from you concerning my interest to serve.

TRI-CITIES CREATE NEW TRACKS BY AMBER BY JoANN REiss, MICHIGAN AMERICORPS PROMISE FELLOW JULY 2001 DICKINSON AND IRoN CouNTIES THEOBALD, AMERICA 's PROMISE CooRDINATOR TRI-CmEs ' PROMISE DICKINSON CoMMUNITY REsouRcE CENTER Mentoring organizations in Ottawa County have made a commitment to Tri-Cities' Promise by coming together to form the Ottawa County Mentoring Collaborative . This Collaborative, led by Lisa Laitinen of The Journey Program at MSU Extension, meets on a monthly basis to address the needs of mentoring. Members share ideas and resources , such as recruitment, screening and education of mentors. It is the hope of this collaborative to meet the high demand for mentors among children and families in Ottawa County. Tri-Cities' Promise and the Ottawa County Mentoring Collaborative are developing numerous tools to ensure every child has a mentor. What is "GOB and GOBS?" Everyone can ride the vol unteer train and, in our Community of Promise, you will hear the call: "Get On Board, Get On Board Students!" The Dickinson Community Resource Center, in cooperation with the Dickinson-Iron Intermediate School District, the Dickinson County Collaborative Board and the Dickinson-Iron Healthy Youth Coalition , have planned a variety of programs for area children, youth , teenagers, and parents. The participants will explore music, drama, art, cultural activities, hobbies, reading, and be able to get help with homework. The Quick Referral Form was developed based on feedback from a variety of teachers and counselors who have expressed their concerns regarding waiting lists of young children in need of a mentor. This form is intended to allow school staff to make referrals and know an approximate waiting period for a child to receive a mentor. The major concern from school staff is the disappointment children experience when a match cannot be found . It is the hope of the Mentoring Collaborative that, through this short form, a referral can be made without notifying the child. When a possible match is found , new paperwork will be issued finding out more details about the child and permission from their guardian. Taking a child or young person out every week can be costly. The mentoring Collaborative is working to make fun activities more affordable to mentors and their mentees. Local businesses have been approached with the idea of giving mentors discounts when they take their mentee out for an activity. A mentor discount card and coupons have also been provided , making varous activities with the child more affordable. These measures also allow mentors to take their mentees to places that might ordinarily be too expensive. With over 20 community leaders concerned about the future of our youth , Tri-Cities' Promise and the Ottawa County Mentoring Collaborative facilitated a monumental gathering in May 2001 at the Volunteer Center to discuss mentoring in the community. This brainstorming session allowed individuals to voice the restraining and driving forces of mentoring and look critically at the growing need for mentors in Ottawa County. See Tri-Cities on page 2 This new after-school program , TEAM (teach , educate, and mentor), invites adults and high school students to join in the fun of tutoring and making new friends. TEAM provides a safe and encouraging place for students to get homework done before heading home for dinner. Greeted with a smile and read ing or storytelling time, students then break into one-on-one or group tutoring sessions to get to work. After the homework is fin ished , the student is encouraged to join in the quiet indoor games or more active play outside. High school students play a big role as mentors to younger students as they develop positive relationships, build good study habits, and increase a positive work ethic in the younger students. These high school volunteers are trained by teachers and parents to tutor both the younger students and soon-to-be educators. These teachers and parents are role models of caring , serving adults who are eager to share their marketable skills and vision of volunteerism with the next generation. This collaborative effort will continue to build the 40 developmental assets as outlined by Search Institute, as everyone joins together to nurture competent, caring , responsible youth . The Dickinson Community Resource Center is also conducting free workshops to promote Child Centered Coaching. These workshops are available to coaches, parents , schools , and other organizations that deal with children in sports. Child Centered Coaching is a philosophy that stresses the importance of helping children develop their positive self-image through sports. The basis of the philosophy is that winning any athletic contest is secondary to trying one's best. S ee Dickinson/Iron Counties on p age 2 Michigan's l!romise TlwAIIIRIJCe ror\"outh �Thallnll JULY 2001 JANUARY 2002 PAGE2 is Tri-Cities Andy Bowne, a Training Manager at Shape Corporation, facilitated the discussion. The group first looked at the positive components in place to support mentoring in the community. The group voiced ideas such as: a caring community, strong schools, quality mentoring organizations, and a large pool of volunteers. Then the group looked at the restraining forces that hold us back from ensuring all youth have positive adult role models. The group cited such factors as: lack of time to volunteer, insufficient knowledge about the many options to mentor, weak recruitment in the community, and the fear of making a long term commitment. Area mentoring organizations participated as silent observers as the community spoke about their ideas and feelings regarding mentoring in Ottawa County. The Collaborative is now working to respond to concerns voiced at the brainstorming session by focusing on recruitment of mentors, the development of a single phone number interested individuals can call to get involved, training and education of mentors, and the development of group events for mentors and mentees. NATIONAL MENTORING MONTH National Mentoring Month is an annual, concentrated, high-profile, media-driven effort dedicated to: o o o Raising awareness of and support for the mentoring movement. Recruiting adults to become mentors for underserved youth. The media activity and associated events are both national and local in scope.

Mawby Executive Di rector Kyle Caldwell MEMORANDUM TO: Members of the Michigan Community Service Commission FROM : Meg Smith, Commissioner-#' RE: Commissioner Training Follow Up Report DATE: Tuesday, December 04, 2001 On October 30 - November 1, 2001 , Commissioners Pruitt, Pardoe and I, along with Ex Officio Member Mary Pfeiler attended a conference in Lisle, Illinios for state commissioners to develop our skills, knowledge and leadership. This conference was hosted in partnership with the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS). There were a number of important issues that we discussed at this meeting as well as a number of opportunities that we became aware of as a result of our networking with our peers from other state conm1issions. Take Pride First, it was very clear that the Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) is a leader among the other state commissions in our programmatic cluster of states as defined by the CNCS (Illinois, Indiana, Mitmesota, Wisconsin, Nebraska and Ohio). Our commissioners and staff are sought nationally for their advice and counsel and our state and local support and programs are unique. Other states are working to find sustainable and innovative solutions to institutionalizing service and volunteerism and initiatives like the Michigan Youth Progressive Action Council (MYP AC), Volunteer Investment Grants (VIG) program and the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) are at the cutting edge of our field. We have a great deal to be proud of, but to ensure our future work we need to act. ew Leadership, New Paradigm During a presentation by the new CEO of the CNCS, Les Lenkowsky, we leamed that state conm1issions will be in the center of a fundamental shift in the operations of the CNCS and the Bush Administration when it comes to national service. National service will be in the center of the Bush Administration' s priorities around Homeland Security. President Bush has called for more American's to give and serve and encouraged citizens to get engaged in national service �during a national address on November 81h. Senators McCain and Bayh are crafting legislation that would greatly expand AmeriCorps for programs in the public safety and community health arenas. These initiatives were previewed in Dr. Lenkowsky's remarks along with his own belief that, in the future, the CNCS will operate more like foundation (i.e. grant making organization) and entrepreneurial organization that a typical govemment agency. Again, it would appear that we are reorganizing our thinking in the san1e direction as the federal govemment (or maybe it is the other way around) . Youth On Commissions Our own Kari Pardoe and CNCS board member, Amy Achor joined their colleagues in other states to present the "Call to Action" white paper that we reviewed at our September Retreat. Commissioners examined their own practices and discussed ways to better integrate young people in the work of the commissions both through membership and through youth advisory committees. Like all the members of the MCSC, young people need to be included in the decisions we make at an equally important level. Much of this will be covered in the report of the Board Development Committee. Recommendations The conference was an excellent opportunity for commissioners to leam their roles as ambassadors for service and volunteerism in their state as well as get a sense of the leadership role Michigan plays among state commissions. It is unfortunate that more of our members were unable to attend. I would encourage every member to seriously consider attending this meeting should the opportunity arise. During our debriefing, the members present recommended the following: • staff engage in developing a robust campaign to spread the word about the MCSC and its work including the processes developed by the Public Relations and Marketing Committee; • orientation materials presented at the conference that discuss the history of national service, the role of state commissions and the current national scene be provided to MCSC members; • make recommendations on what the MCSC believes should be the changes regarding reauthorization of the 1993 National and Community Service Trust Act (a draft resolution is provided); and • the members of the MCSC seriously consider networking opporl:lmities with their counterparts in other states. A new date has not yet been set for another commissioner training, but members present were assured that it is the intent of the CNCS to repeat the opportunity. 2 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The four areas discussed were the December 14th meeting agenda, the September lOth & 11th Retreat, National Service Legislation and the review and approval of the 2002 Michigan Volunteer Investment Grants (VIG). December 14, 2001 Agenda Members reviewed the agenda and asked that the resolution on reauthorization of the 1993 National and Community Service Trust Act be moved to "New Business" and that it be discussed prior to the Michigan's AmeriCorps Program Presentation. 2001 Retreat The members reviewed the summary of the retreat and suggested two modifications: 1. Add other partners to the "What did we (staff) hear?'' section including: Council of Michigan Foundations, the Michigan Legislature, and the Michigan Executive Branch. 2. Change "Views from the State Political Perspective" section to reflect a more generic reference to the suppoti of the Executive Branch. �Staff members will provide a working draft of their work plan at the December 14th meeting. National Service Legislation Members were briefed on the various pieces of legislation pending before Congress that may become part of the reauthorization of the 1993 National and Community Service Trust Act. Members discussed the passage and distribution of a resolution by the MCSC that would address the changes and principles Michigan would like to see incorporated in the future legislative efforts. Members suggested placing a draft version before the full membership at the December 14th meeting for approval. The final version of the resolution would be forwarded to key stakeholders including the Michigan Delegation (U.S. Senators and Representatives), Michigan Legislators, the Corporation for National and Community Service, and the Michigan Office of the Corporation for National and Community Service in Detroit. Michigan Volunteer Investment Grants Program The staff requested approval of the 2002 VIG recommendations. The members approved the recommendations with one modification. The members wished to ensure fair and even distribution of the $13 8,440 recommended for applicants whose proposals were not strong enough for full funding, but which with work, could be modified to recommend for partial funding. The members requested that the funds be allocated on a percentage basis using the requested amounts as a gauge. Staff made the requested modification with one slight alteration. Since the published minimum for Michigan VIG fund s is $25,000, each applicant would be granted that amount as a base and the remaining funds allocated by factoring in the requested amount with the overall total of remaining funds. A final summary will be provided at the December 141h meeting as patt of the Executive Director's report. The next meeting of the MCSC Executive Committee will be January 25, 2002. � 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: Members and Friends of the Michigan Community Service Commission FROM: Kyle Caldwell, Executive Director RE: Executive Director's Report DATE: Wednesday, December 05 , 2001 ~~ The theme of this report, "What a difference a day makes." It seems strange, and yet somehow oddly fitting that many of us were together during the tragic events of September 11 rh. The day will have a profound effect on us as a nation and as a people. Suddenly all the arguments, disputes and the burning issues that consumed us prior to September 11 th seem very small in comparison. It was hard to focus on our work at the Retreat at Brook Lodge, yet we all banded together and made it through one of our nation ' s toughest days. On behalf of the staff, I want to thank the commissioners and friends present that day for your commitment and dedication. September 11 th instantly changed our society in many ways and accelerated other changes all ready in process. We have seen some ofthose changes in the way the Michigan Community Service Conunission (MCSC) operates and in the planning we are conducting for the future. Prior to September 11 111 we were discussing "transitions" at the state and federal level regarding the support we might receive and the funding that would accompany (or not) that support. Now, we are in an entirely new arena. Michigan is still one of the nation's leading state service commissions with strong state and federal support, however, for the first time the state support is decreasing while the federal support may be increasing. Until recently, local communities defining their needs has driven the priorities for AmeriCorps funding in Michigan, but now a national crisis has forged a new priority- Homeland Security. Fortunately, the planning the staff and commissioners have engaged in over the past year is in line with the new priorities we must examine in this new era. The MCSC must focus more intensely on its grant-making activities while collaborating with the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) to help it take on the larger role of awareness and development for the volunteerism field generally. This plan will provide the MCSC the flexibility it needs to respond to the needs of Michigan's citizens who volunteer. This report will further detail staff actions taken to deal with this new reality. �Making it Happen Budget Reductions and "Possible" Budget Expansions The economic slow down and its impact on state revenues are making their mark on the state budget and therefore, the MCSC. In the previous fiscal year (October 1, 2000 to Sept. 30, 2001), the MCSC state funds for Volunteer Investment Grants (VIG) were reduced by $92,000. For FY 2002, we have $857,300 for the VIG program, a decrease of$50,000 from FY 2001 and $142,700 from the original appropriation amount of $1 million. In addition, $2 million was eliminated from the Tobacco Settlement Funds administered by the MCSC for community foundations ' health programming for youth and seniors. Overall, the state general revenue funds admirustered by the MCSC has been reduced by 26.7% over the past six months. State Grant Funds Volunteer Investment Grants Tobacco Settlement Funds Total State Grant Funds FY 2000 $1 million $6 million $7 million FY 2002 $857,300 $4 million $4,857,300 Reduction $142,700 $2 million $2,142,700 % -14%* -33%* -26.7% The FY 2003 budget will be crafted over the next three months and the forecasts do not look promising. It is widely expected that state agencies will be forced to make deep cuts. Even agencies operating on primarily federal funds may be required to shift their budgets to make up for state revenue losses in other areas. While the picture for the FY 2003 budget looks bleak, the current situation is not as bad for the MCSC as it has been for other state agencies and departments. The work of the MCSC moves forward. This year we fully encumbered the VIG funds in the first round of applications-a first in this program area. So long as we are able to maintain our budget at this level, most of the programming, events and awareness activities slated for this year will continue unaffected by the budget reductions. Economies have been implemented over the past six months to deal with anticipated budget cuts including travel restrictions, personnel reductions, elimination of sponsorships, and general awareness of operating expenses. In addition, the staff will delay or discontinue making any new plans or taking on any new irutiatives or grant-making responsibilities. On the federal stage, the budget may look different. The recent talk on the Hill ties the President's goals regarding Homeland Security with the potential expansion of national service including AmeriCorps and Seruor Corps. A draft bill (not introduced, but crafted and endorsed by the co-sponsors) from Senators McCain and Bayh calls for the five-fold expansion of AmeriCorps, half of which would be tied to Homeland Security programming including public health, public safety and other related issues. Implied in this legislation is the increase of federal funds for this expansion. The "proof will be in the pudding" on this given the current budget crisis and the lack ofbi-partisanship in Washington, D.C. More discussion on this and other legislation will be taken up during the standing committee reports, but it is worth noting that the legislation calling for the expansion of AmeriCorps may not be good for state commissions and their grantees if, for example, adequate funding for administration and training is not provided and if the legislation does not require national nonprofits to coordinate with commissions and governors. 2 �Federal appropriations for AmeriCorps and state commissions are slated to be flat for the upcoming fiscal year. While this is a good sign overall, it does not provide the MCSC with much latitude regarding our current portfolio. The increase in operating costs for programs including living allowances, cost of travel and other expenses and personnel make flat funding essentially a decrease. In addition, the MCSC is currently overseeing 29 AmeriCorps programs with only two program officers. For these reasons combined with the uncertainty of the future funding, the MCSC staff will be recommending that no new programs be added to the current portfolio and that staff resources should be focused on maintaining and improving the current roster of operating and planning grants. So, while the state revenues are shrinking, the federal revenues may be increasing. While the role of the MCSC in general outreach may be shrinking in view of the CMA, the federal programming may be increasing. The questions for all to consider now regarding the budget of the MCSC are: 1. How will the MCSC's current balanced view of state and federal priorities be changed as the state revenues dry up shifting the MCSC to ·a primarily federally funded organization? 2. Can/should the MCSC take on an expanded AmeriCorps portfolio of programs if additional administration supports are not provided? How will the MCSC marry the expansion of Homeland Security with the past practice of having communities identify their need for AmeriCorps resources? 3. Should the MCSC decide not to participate in an expansion of AmeriCorps programs in Michigan geared around Homeland Security, what impact will that decision have on the organization's leadership role in the state? in the nation? 4. What steps can/should the MCSC take to show value in its grantmaking that would inform and influence policy makers in positive ways? How can/should that action be guided by the President's focus on Homeland Security? *(These percentages refer to the reductions in the specific line items and do not represent the aggregate total that is based on the overall reduction in state appropriations.) Reminder Dates February 12, 2001 - MCSC 101h Anniversary Celebration at the State Capitol Building April28, 2001- Governor's Service Award, Lansing Center April28 -29, 2001 - 2001 Volunteerism SuperConference, Lansing Center Insights on th e Vision Homeland Security-A ew Priority In a series of recent actions, the Bush Administration and the Congress have recognized the utility and value of national service as a potential community problem-solving tool for Homeland Security. President Bush took the first step of legitimizing national service by merging some of 3 �his priorities for his Office on Community and Faith Based Initiatives with the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS). The two offices are now working closely to advance more local partnerships and eliminate cumbersome regulations that serve as barriers to federal funds. Then, in the wake of the overwhelming events of September 11, the President again called on the CNCS to provide a vehicle for our citizens to express their charity through volunteerism. Following the President's lead and coming to appreciate the good that national service can do to strengthen the civic fabric of our society, U.S . Representatives and U.S. Senators from both the Republican and Democratic ranks have called for the reauthorization of the 1993 National and Community Service Trust Act and for the expansion of AmeriCorps and Senior Corps programs. Included among these supporters are those who, only twelve months ago, were calling for the elimination of AmeriCorps and the CNCS . This includes one ofthe strongest and most vocal opponents to national service, U.S. Representative Peter Hoekstra. The President and First Lady have addressed the nation about giving and volunteering by producing a public service announcement that highlighted the nationalservice.org website (website for the CNCS). You have received a number of press clippings and updates regarding the various proposals and legislation that may be considered during the next session of the U.S. Congress. Summaries and press clippings are included with the December 14, 2001 meeting materials in the section marked, "Public Comment." The current thinking at the national level seems to be that the various proposals will be examined and taken into consideration as Congress considers a reauthorization bill. What is not clear is how or if each proposal will be incorporated and which will be given more weight. On December lOth I will join my colleagues from other state commissions at a meeting with the leadership at the CNCS hosted by the American Association of State Service Commissions in Washington, D.C. to discuss our priorities and recommendations. It is my hope to put forth Michigan's recommendations in the fom1 of a draft resolution that was approved by the Executive Committee at their November 16th meeting. The Executive Committee will seek the comments and approval of the full commission at the December 14th meeting. Past Planning for Future Direction This is truly and odd time for the MCSC. On the one hand the economy- negatively impacted by the terrorist attacks of September 11 and the general weakening of the consumers' confidence indices- will reduce the state resources available for us to advance our agenda. Conversely, the federal focus on national service and the potential it will have for expanding Homeland Security efforts may expand the role the MCSC plays in our state's human services infrastructure. This change in the landscape is exactly the kind of scenario we discussed when we decided to realign the MCSC as a grantmaking organization and less of a general promotional vehicle for service and volunteerism. The more we are able to channel resources to issues critical to our nation and our communities, the more effective we can be in promoting community problem solving. The CMA can now help support this agenda by serving as the leadership and promotional hub for all the statewide service and volunteer support organizations. The MCSC's focus can remain on its grantmaking expertise and serving as a conduit to the public sector. Thanks to your forethought and planning, the MCSC is able to continue to effectively serve our citizens. 4 � 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: Members ofthe Michigan Community Service Commission FROM: Garry Gross, Director of Finance & Administration Michigan Community Service Commission -~1 RE: Finance & Administration Division's Report DATE: December 3, 2001 {l The following is a brief update ofthe current issues facing the Finance and Administration Division. FY 2001 Closeout We are nearing the final close out for Fiscal Year (FY) 2001 . The Department of Career Development is processing final inter-department payments and hopes to close out the books by December 15, 2001. FY 2002 Spending We are also fmalizing our 2002 spending plans. Our internal budgets are still in draft form as we waited to see if the budget cuts to the State Departments would have a major impact on our spending. We ended up taking a decrease in our grants line, which is the second decrease in the last year and one-half. For FY 2002, we have $857,300 dollars for the Volunteer Investment Grants program, a decrease of$50,000 from FY 2001 and $142,700 from the original appropriation amount. We are also waiting on the final award numbers from the Corporation for National Service on our administration, program development and training, and disability grants. Final numbers will not be available until after the federal appropriation process is complete. Until we have the final awards, we will be using last year's grants as tentative amounts for our spending plans. I will have an updated FY 2002 spending plan for you at the Commission meeting on December 14, 2002. �Federal Audit We are continuing to prepare for the federal audit. We have supplied the auditors with the majority of the information regarding sub-grantees and are starting the process ofbuilding seven years of expenditures in the format that they requested. We had to wait until the Department had finished the year-end closeout to obtain the help we need from the finance division. The audit firm, Cotton & Company is looking at starting to visit sub-grantees in the next couple of weeks. We don't expect the auditors to be on site in our office until the end of January at the earliest. So far, the auditors seem pleased with the information that we have supplied them. While the audit will just be starting, we will be able to give you a better update at our next Commission meeting in February 2002. Personnel Matters With the filling of the two vacant positions in the Program Division, we are down to one vacant position, the Grants Coordinator location in the Finance and Administration Division. We have submitted a request for the hiring freeze waiver to the department and are hoping that they will forward the request to the Department of Management and Budget for approval in the next couple of weeks. If the request gets approved, we hope to bring on the new grants coordinator by the end of January 2002. If you have any questions or concerns that I can help you with, please feel free to call me at (517) 373-8028 or email at grossg@state.mi.us. I also want to thank all of you for the time and effort that you put into being a member of the Commission. Happy Holidays! 2 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
