Service Learning in Michigan
Executive Summary
INTR ODUCTION
In January and February 2005, Public Sector Consultants, on behalf of the Michigan Community Service

Commission (MCSC), conducted a second mail scan of Michigan schools. The first scan was conducted
in 2002, and its purpose was to provide a descriptive baseline of the prevalence of service learning
throughout Michigan. The 2005 scan provides a follow-up to the original scan and allows the MCSC to
track the growth of service learning in Michigan.
The scan is designed to address the following questions:
•

Where is school-initiated community service taking place?

•

Where is service learning taking place in Michigan and in what grade levels?

•

To what extent and with what frequency is service learning occurring?

•

What components of service learning are in place?
In what grade levels is service learning occurring?
In what content areas is service learning being utilized?

•
•

MAJOR FINDINGS
•

Community service is a requirement for graduation in more schools than is service learning. Four
percent of schools have a service-learning requirement for graduation. In contrast, 10 percent of
schools require community service. Three percent of schools require both.

•

The reasons for engaging students in community service and service learning are nearly identical.
The reasons for encouraging these activities are quite similar, and scan results are comparable to
those in 2002. Schools tend to cite community and student benefits rather than benefits to the school
itself or improved student performance. For example, the three most frequently cited reasons for
encouraging community service and service learning are to meet real community needs, to help
students become more active community members, and to encourage altruism and caring for others.
Least cited reasons include improving student achievement and performance, reducing risky
behaviors, and improving a school ' s ability to meet No Child Left Behind (NCLB) standards.

•

Slightly more teachers and students are engaging in service learning now than in 2002. Twenty-eight
percent of teachers (compared to 24 percent in 2002) integrate service learning into their instruction.
More students are also being engaged in service learning-29 percent in 2005 compared to 26 percent
in 2002.

•

Service learning is still largely an activity of individual teachers, but small increases in the
percentage of schools with gradewide and discipline-wide service learning have occurred since 2002.
Sixty-two percent of schools report that service learning is carried out through the efforts of
individual teachers in particular courses, rather than as a schoolwide or districtwide initiative. In
2002, 61 percent of schools reported that service learning occurred in individual courses. Fifty-nine
percent of schools report gradewide service learning (up from 51 percent in 2002) and 39 percent
report discipline-wide service learning (up slightly from 37 percent in 2002). Schoolwide service
learning has remained constant at 34 percent.

�Service Learning in Michigan: Executive Summary

July 2005

•

Financial and material support has remained relatively constant, but schools are more likely now
than in 2002 to provide teachers with reductions in course load and additional planning time. Sixtyseven percent of schools (the same percentage as in 2002) report that they provide support for
teachers to attend external conferences or training for service learning, and 60 percent report
providing financial assistance to defray some costs associated with engaging in service learning (up
from 58 percent in 2002). Ten percent provide a reduction in course load and 13 percent provide
additional planning time for teachers involved in service learning (both up from just 6 percent).

•

Schools that report particular sources offunding have experienced a slight drop but overall remained
relatively constant. As in 2002, a relatively small proportion of schools receive external funding for
service learning activities; the most common sources remain philanthropy and federal or state
funding. Just 14 percent of schools received a special grant or special funding in the past academic
year to support service-learning activities (13 percent reported receiving such support in 2002).
Among these, 16 percent (15 percent in 2002) received a grant from a corporation or business, 16
percent received funding from some other educational initiative 1, 15 (17 percent in 2002) percent
received a foundation grant, 11 percent (12 percent in 2002) received funding from some other
federal or state source, 6 percent (5 percent in 2002) received funding from Learn and Serve America,
and 8 percent (6 percent in 2002) received funding from AmeriCorps.

•

Grade level and location of the school are related to utilization of service learning. High schools
participate in service learning more often than other grade levels. Urban schools are more likely than
their suburban or rural counterparts to offer service learning.

•

Eighteen percent of schools have a formal policy for service learning. Furthermore, having a formal
policy for service learning is significantly related to a school offering various types of support-a
full- or part-time service learning coordinator, financial support, mini-grants, or professional
development to teachers.

CONCLUSIONS
•

The gap between the number of schools offering community service and those offering service
learning is unchanged. Community service is far more prevalent than service learning in Michigan
schools. Consistent with 2002 findings, schools continue to view community service as similar to
service learning. This is not surprising as both activities have similar philosophies of service and
response to community needs. Further investigation is needed to understand the reasons why more
schools do not engage in service learning.

•

While the overall prevalence of service learning did not change significantly in 2005, there are signs
that the schools offering service learning are becoming more engaged in it. For example, compared to
2002, a higher proportion of students within a school are involved in service learning; more schools
are offering gradewide or discipline-wide, as opposed to class-specific, service learning; more schools
have service-learning coordinators; and schools are requiring a greater number of hours of service.

•

There is plenty of room for service learning to expand its reach in Michigan schools. Service learning
is utilized more often in high schools, larger schools, and more affluent schools. Furthermore, social
science courses are much more likely than other disciplines to utilize service learning.

•

Financial and staffing support for service learning goes hand in hand with formal policy. If a district
bas a formal policy in place, it is more likely to offer financial assistance to teachers, support
conference and training attendance, offer mini-grants for activities, and offer professional
development.

Learn &amp; Serve Michigan School-Based Grants
Renewal Funding
Background
The MCSC issued renewal application guidelines on May 2, 2005. The staff discussed the
renewal guidelines on the May 11th grantee conference call. The renewal applications were due
on July 8, 2005. We received 25 renewal applications. The staff reviewed all25 applications on
July 18, 2005 . Staff is recommending a1125 for funding.
This year there were three categories of renewal funding - implementation, institutionalization,
and ISD/Higher Education partnerships. School districts that have received funds in the past
were able to apply for an implementation grant to expand quality service-learning practice
throughout the district. School districts that have implemented service-learning for a minimum
of three years were able to apply for an institutionalization grant to sustain quality servicelearning practice. The amount of funds applicants were eligible to apply for were based on the
category (implementation, and institutionalization) and on classification of the school district by
pupil membership. Intermediate School Districts in partnership with a higher education
institution were eligible to apply for a $50,000 grant to build regional professional development
opportunities for teachers and administrators in the area of service-learning.

North Star Academy
North Star Academy has developed a three-tiered approach to service-learning. Students begin
to understand the concept of 'global issues' through weekly service at local non-profits.
Students are matched according to their strengths and interests to offer the agency skills and
services they may need. They gain a deeper understanding of service through their course
studies as academic content and applied projects focus on a particular societal problem or issue.
At the close of their high school career, students demonstrate and internalize their understanding
of a modem problem or issue by working in a team and conducting their own research and
formulating their own project.

MEMORANDUM

TO:

Members of the Michigan Community Service Commission

FROM:

Janet Lawson, Executive Director

DATE:

September 16, 2005

RE:

Updates on Progress and Challenges

Updates on Progress and Challenges
Community service and civic involvement have been in national and state focus over the last
four months.

National Service
Due to swift and powerful community response, and letters of support from grantees and
citizenry in general, AmeriCorps and Learn and Serve are being recommended at funded levels
exceeding national expectations. Similarly, a commitment to Faith-based and Community
Initiatives continues to bring funded community service programs to temples, churches and
mosques. The FY 06 budget has not been finalized for National Service. The House of
Representatives proposed numbers are lower than the Senate numbers. The Senate
Appropriations Committee is recommending $429 million for AmeriCorps (compared to $455
million last year) and $42.6 million for Learn and Serve (same as FY 05). It is unlikely the
budget process will be resolved by the end of the fiscal year. Folks are speculating a Continuing
Resolution through December. The terms of the Continuing Resolution are still be determined.
The possible scenarios could be flat funded, across the board reductions, or across the board cost
mcreases.

�I

The Points of Light Foundation and the Corporation for National Service held a weeklong
conference on "Volunteering and Service" in June. Key messages from that conference include:
(see attachment)
• Volunteer service is on the rise
• Volunteering and national service produce tremendous benefits for our nation
• Effective volunteering requires management and infrastructure
• Momentum for volunteering and national service is growing in all sectors
• The National Conference is where it all comes together
In July, the National Governor's Association developed and ratified a National and Community
Service Policy recognizing the importance of service and community involvement and federalstate partnerships. (see attachment)

Also at the policy and planning level, the Corporation for National Service developed a new
strategic plan and rolled out new rules for AmeriCorps programs. (see attachments)
Finally, in response to the national travesty left by Hurricane Katrina, the Corporation for
National Service, AmeriCorps*VISTA, and the National Civilian Conservation Corps (NCCC)
routed millions of dollars in fmancial aid and human capital to assist in disaster relief. (see
attachment)

State Service
The positive national focus on service and volunteerism was not an indicator of things to come in
Michigan. While a sell out crowd attended the Governor's Service Awards in June, elected
officials in the Michigan House voted to zero out the MCSC budget for FY 05-06. Described by
some as a short-sited way to save the budget a million dollars, state representatives decided it
was no longer necessary, nor a good idea, to provide state match dollars for the $6.8 in federal
funds that come to Michigan through AmeriCorps and Learn and Serve grants. Legislators are
currently working in committee to review the budget.
The MCSC is grateful for assistance from the ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA). CMA's
efforts to support the work of the MCSC garnered more than 283 signatures from grantees,
citizens, business and community leaders to a sign on letter of support. ConnectMichigan
Alliance also developed the www.servernichigan.org website to support community service in
Michigan. We are grateful to the fifteen commissioners who signed on to the letter. (see
attachment)
While the legislature struggled with the FY 05-06 budget, the Commission staff worked
tirelessly on goals and new program ideas, stressing standards of practice in many program areas
to assure quality programming and safety.
A new AmeriCorps program for 2005-2006 will include a 34 member Mentor Michigan
AmeriCorps program sponsored by the ConnectMichigan Alliance. The program will improve
the quality of existing youth mentoring program by enhancing, developing, and implementing
systems to effectively recruit, screen, train and support mentors and mentees. In addition, they

�will focus on helping sites meet the Mentor Michigan Quality Program Standards (MAPS). This
new program complements the Mentor Michigan VISTA program also supported by
ConnectMichigan Alliance. Current and former ArneriCorps program directors are working to
develop Michigan ArneriCorps Program Standards. The standards will be piloted this year with
the expectation that they will be implemented in the 2006-07 program year. Bittersweet news
from the MCSC includes the departure of staff member Kim Andrews. Kim's expertise as an
ArneriCorps Program Director helped many ArneriCorps programs reach success in their
community. Her talents were noticed by the W.K. Kellogg Foundation who hired her as the
Program Director for the Battle Creek area. We wish her well and know that she will always be a
friend of the Commission.
Mentor Michigan success this summer was measured by:
• A second wave of the Mentor Michigan Census
• Four regional Mentor Michigan meetings held in Detroit, Marquette, Saginaw, and
Muskegon
• Release and discussion of a draft of the new Mentor Michigan Quality Program
Standards developed earlier this summer by the Mentor Michigan Providers Council
aimed at developing quality mentoring programs for kids
• Grants from Siemens Foundation, John Hancock Manulife Fund, Detroit Auto Dealers
Association (DADA)
• Amber Reiss joined the MCSC staff as the full time Mentor Michigan coordinator
Over the summer, service-learning practicioners participated in a funding renewal application
process. Only current grantees were eligible for the 05-06 renewal cycle. Twenty-five schools
received a total $624,073 in grants. (Executive Committee Report-Tab 3) Other recent
service-learning achievements include:
• 1,916 Service-Learning administrators were invited to participate in a Service-Learning
Environmental Scan conducted by Public Sector Consultants (see attachment)
• Commission staff launched the new Michigan Service-Learning Teacher Fellows
Program. Six elementary teachers make up this charter group (see attachment)
• Commission staff convened a Principals Task Force meeting on August 17th to
strategize administrator outreach (see attachment)
• 44 people and 10 teams attended a Summer Service-Learning symposium June 20-21
focused on strategies for sustainability
It was not a season without struggles however. Hurricane Katrina's devastation was an
invitation for Michigan volunteer involvement. Governor Granholm mobilized the Emergency
Management Center and organized the Department of Human Services to unify relief and
volunteer efforts across the state. Visit the MCSC website at www.michigan.gov/mcsc for
Michigan's response to Hurricane Katrina relief efforts. (see attachment)

Within our Commission, Citizen Corps took an active role in Michigan. In Detroit, the Citizen
Corps Council in conjunction with Wayne County and City of Detroit Homeland Security and
Emergency Management, opened the Hurricane Katrina Evacuee Reception Assistance Center.
CERT volunteers help evacuees re-locating in Detroit through the registration, medical and
human service process. Wayne County is also providing technical assistance to evacuees
arriving at Detroit City Airport. Calhoun County Citizen Corps volunteers are working with the

�Red Cross to process evacuees arriving in Battle Creek at the Fort Custer National Guard Base.
241 evacuees have been processed thus far. Eaton and Ingham County CERT volunteers are
staffmg the State of Michigan Hurricane Hotline.
Other challenges at the local level include the arrest of an AmeriCorps Program Director with the
Char-Em School District. The required background checks were conducted however we all
learned that the systems are not infallible and we must do more to insure the safety of children.
We know that we need to create a background check policy for AmeriCorps programs and
Mentor Michigan programs in an effort to support the Governor's safety agenda for all children
and citizens.
All these efforts at the national, state and local level continue to challenge and encourage our
mission to build a "culture of service by providing vision and resources to strengthen
communities through volunteerism."

Background

Volunteer Centers of Michigan
Impact Evaluation:
Interim Report on Phase I

Volunteer Centers of Michi ga n (VCM) is a state assoc iation of 32
Volunteer Centers (VCs). Since 200 1, VCM has been affi li ated with
ConnectMichi gan Alliance (CMA), the central nonprofit hub for
vo lunteerism in the state and the fidu c iary agent for VCM.
Key constituent groups of the VCM seek accountability and
documentation of the services provid ed and outcomes generated by th e
VCs. The future and sustainabil.ity of the VCs and VCM is largely
dependent on finding ways to document services provid ed and
outcomes achieved at the community level.

Prepared for:

Michigan Com muni ty Service Commission
Prepared by:
Roben W. Kahle, Ph.D.
Kahl e Research Solutions Inc.

As sucb, CMA and VCM have reques ted th at Kahl e Research
Solutions design and develop an evaluati on pl an. This report
summarizes effort to date and provides preliminary findings.

"We have eve1y year something called th e Holiday Wish list, and it
appears in the (newspapet) in November and December .... It is a
compilation of the needs of clients from about 70-80 nonprofit
agencies.. One year a single elderly lady ... read th e wish list and
she saw that (the schools) needed gloves, mittens, socks and hats
for their students ... She clipped it out and saved it for a full year
and during that full year she actually knitted 300 pairs ofsocks
and a hundred scarves and hats and whatever else. She just sat
there and knitted day after day for a year, and the following year
she took all that stuff and dro ve it to (the schools) and delivered
it .. .It 's a great erample /thin k of how one of our services touched
somebody and helped th e community."

and longer term results/soc ial change as it relates to defined

Context of Tension, Change

Overview of Key Findings:
Crossroad Coming

Substanlial inter-organizati onal tensions exist within the Volunteer Center
environment nat ionall y and locally.

The next three to six month period is a criti cal crossroad for Michigan VCs
and the national vo lunteer movement

There is tension and competition between POLF and United Way .
./ Competing soflw are/Web sites

./ POLF Affi li ati on Agreement soon to be released, with unknown national
response .

./ United Way has moved to a "Community Impact" model, restructurin g
and possibl y deemphasizin g the volunteer connecting function

./ Most Michigan VCs have serious concerns and questions about the
Affiliation Agreement. Onl y a few will sign in current form.

"I'm having a hard lime (finding) the positives ... for th e affiliates. It is
very one-sided, there's not a lot of incentive for new Volunteer
Centers or for 111 e, (to) justify the amount of money that we spend just
for the membership in Points ofLight."
"A nything that 's going to put more constraints on what I do or give me
more to do to justify what I do, that is keeping track or keeping
specific software, I'm not really interested in doing all that."

Volunteer leaders within United Ways are optimistic and enthusiastic
about "Community Impact" app roach
Volunteer leaders within United Ways are in some ways better
prepared and supported to do and measure "impact wo rk"

Overview of Key Findings:
Affiliation Agreement Concerns: Super Brand

Overview of Key Findings:
Affiliation Agreement Concerns: Core Programs
Core Pro grams
Due to the wide div ers ity of the program offerings of VCs, and
customization to individual conununities, defining a set of core
programs is a controversial iss ue. Not all VCs can or want to
commit to offering the same core programs.
"Under the duties of the Foundation, the first one, they talk
about core programs. Any idea of how many there would be?
Is it a skeleto t~ is it a full slate?"

Most concerns with the Affiliation Agree ment center around three issues:
I. "S uper Brand"
2. Core programs
3. Shared Fundraising
Super Brand
"My understandingfrom Poims of Light is that the Super Brand is over and
above our local brand, that it would be s omething Points of Light-related
or it would be a tag line or it would be something we would all ha ve on
our stationary ... I want to be sure that ... we wou/dn ' t be asked to change
our logo, which we have taken almost 30 years to establish in our

"These core programs, I mean how broad-based can they be?
Each one of us has their particular program that is tailor made
to the needs of their own community. Broad is broad, but can
they get that broad? "
" ft raises red flags to me with somebody else defining the core
programs for me and assessing them."

community."

'The branding issue could be a stopper and is a concem of mine. Th ere's a
lot ofpolitics going on around the brand issue ... Th ey would love for the
Foundation's brand to be ow· system brand, and even to be our own local
brands if they could get that fa r, and we're giving push back and who
knows where that 's going to end up . ..

Overview of Key Findings:
Trust and confidence is low

Overview of Key Findings:
Affiliation Agreement Concerns: Shared Fundraising
Shared fundraising
VC leaders want a commitment of ha rd dollars from POLF to support
operations. The notion of shared fundrais ing, without specifics, causes
uneasiness.
VC leaders, in general , do not believe that adequate finan cial support
flows through POLF to local VCs.
"Nowhere does it stare that they will financially support Volunteer
Centers. Ther e 's nothing in this agree me/11 that actually says
... Volunteer Centers wi II be a line item in the Points of Light budget.
think that is criti cal ... I don 't want it ... to say, we 're going to share, I
want to kn ow that finan cially, the y're going to give us some money as
a line item, and that 's not there at all ."
"I have a real concern about joint fimdra ising. A s entence in that,
saying. 'Affiliates will refrain from fimdraising in conjunction with
other entities that conflicts with such joint effo rts ', I have no idea
wharrharmeans. I would be ve1y interested to find out."

./ Trust and confidence in POLF is quite low among VC leaders.

"I don 't think any of us ... are sure that Points of Light is th13·e yet.
Th ey 've verbally committed to the agreement, they've verbally
committed to wanting to serve Volunteer Centers, but they also at
every turn seem to be hedging their bets .. .It 's still questionable
about whether th ey really want to be our national voice for
Volunteer Centers or if they just want to be a partner in general. "
./ The Affiliation Agreement has potenti al to further "de- unify" VCs, both
nationall y and in Michigan .
./ United Way/ POLF tensions and c ompeting rol es need to be resol ved or furth e r
fTagmentation of national support may ensue.

Overview of Key Findings:
Michigan VCs want I need to expand, yet feel
resource-constrained

Overview of Key Findings:
Expansion (Continued)

Many Michigan VCs want to expand, yet nearly all feel underresourced , even for contin uing to provide the same level of service
they are today.
"I think I've gotten to a point where I have to be veiJ' realistic about
what myself and my assistant can do without joining otlu:r forces,
and without having the dollars .... "

•

"The spirit 's willing, butthefinmr:ial picture is not ... Ifyou're
looking at a Voluntrer Center that just has part-time people, it's
very, ve1y hard to expand. And it 's not that we don't want to- oh
do we want to- because we see the need eve1y single day, but
we're limited because offinances. "
"There are so many needs in our com munity, but nobody has the
funding .... "

Some VCs want to expand the geographic areas they cover.
"We would love to see the Student Service Award program
throughout (our area). Th ere are 54 high schools in (our area);
we 've got six ofthemjustfor (our counties). We would just love to
expand it to ot!JZr communities .. "
Expand ing the tvpes of services offered is a common theme among
these VC leaders.
" We do want to expand, I do see opportunities in ow· community,
especially with the schools and the college. "
Many VC leaders express a desire to ex pand the target populations
they serve. For several, youth volunteerism is a growing area of focus .
"For us, I think our next expansion is going to be some sort ofa
formalized y outh program for volunteerism. We do serve youth
volunteers, but not in any organized way as many Volunteer
Centers do at this point because we just ha ven 'I had th e reso urces
to do that."

Phase II Recomn1endations

Key In1plications for Phase II
One type of surve y will not capture all or even most VCs' work (components
vary too widely by VC) .
Even one method of data collection will not work with all because of
differences in technological sophi stication, knowl edge of data collection,
existin g data resources, etc.
Impact evaluation requires more than research. Common tool s (software),
trai ning (logic modeling is excellent sta rt), and common definitions are
necessary for effective outcome/impact research to be conducted in the VC

Re-think data coll ection approaches for phase II.
Use multipl e methods to database creation with data sourced from:
- existing documents (annual reports, Web sites)
- telephone and mail semi-structured interviews,
Request and faci litate development of sta ndard definitions of a small
number of cri tical variables and common outputs so impact evaluation can
proceed.
Enco urage competing software providers to adopt standard
de finition s/coll ection protocol so that any titl e can be used with
comparable stati stics produced.
Purchase, distribute, consult, support only compatible software/Web site
as key future data coll ection method. ln coordinati on with Voluntee r
Centers of Cali forni a and other major cli ents ofsoflware, request standard
protoco ls and compatible outputs as system requirements.
Do not wait for this to begin the process of definin g and collecting criti cal
output/outcome variables for VCs in Michigan.

environment.

There is a great opportunity for Michi gan to be national leade r; de fin e the
model.
Documentin g the impact of Michi gan's VCs would be a substanti al chall enge
within a stable context. The cha llenge is magnifi ed by the level of uncertainty,
rapid change, inter-organizational tensions, fragmented support, organizational
va riation .
Choosing between competing software/Web site providers has potenti al to
fragmen t VCs in Michigan even further.

Post-Retreat Update

Greetings to all: At the end of this e-mail message you will find a conference call schedule for all
Commissioners and staff who are eager to start working on the goals that came out of our retreat. As a
summary for those Commissioners who were not at the retreat, I will review the work of the retreat.
This e-mail message is an invitation to all to help create an "epidemic of volunteerism" in Michigan . We
want to create a state where every child has a mentor, every senior makes a commitment to serve
somewhere in their community, every corporation is civically engaged and every community has a
volunteer center or a place to go for volunteer referral.
Mentor Michigan has created some "best practices" for creating such an epidemic . Through Mentor
Michigan we have:
Created benchmarksDeveloped partners and championsDeveloped a brandCreated quality program
standards with input from the field Developed a diversified funding plan Made reasonable promises
regarding quality and quantityThanks to Russ Mawby who set the tone at the retreat with his explanation
of the importance of service and volunteerism in a democratic society.
Our conversations helped us identify three major Commission goals for 05-06. Those goals are :
Mentor Michigan. Use mentoring and service to create forward movement toward the Cherry Commission
goals and Department of Human Services Anti-Poverty Agenda . We will challenge local communities to
identify kids at risk of failing and/or dropping out of school. We will link those students with corporations,
service clubs and media outlets to move the needle in 2006 toward personal success for kids .
Currently these MCSC Commissioners and friends have pledged time to support this committee:
Jerry Seese
Mike Thomas
Kyle Caldwell
Don Newport

This group will connect the dots to ...
2. Cool Companies/Cool Cities . We will broaden the definition of cool places to live and work to include a
service component. We will organize CEO-to-CEO outreach to explain the value of volunteerism to
companies to assist their organization's volunteer efforts . We will invite these corporations to adopt a
school, or kids , who are in need of mentors to link them to successful futures .
Currently these MCSC Commissioners and friends have pledged time to support this committee :
Larry Williamson
Donna Niester
Russ Mawby
Jimmie Comer
Ken Whipple (in abstentia- Ken, your fellow Commissioners thought this would be a perfect committee for
you)
This group will connect the dots to ...
3. Great media . We will tell the story of Michigan's national leadership position and prototype the
Michigan volunteer infrastructure. We will let others know what's great and strong about volunteerism in
Michigan. We will tell the positive Michigan story of this coordinated initiative using community and
corporate volunteerism to solve large Michigan problems . We will demonstrate the cooperative model
between MCSC , CMA, VCM , MNA, MCC and Michigan's Promise .

Rob Collier
Shaun VanHorn
AI Swain
Larry Williamson
Mike Thomas
Additionally, Kathy-Young Welch wants to design a set of deliverables that would be available for all
"pitches" to anyone who wants to help. A separate package for religious communities, corporations,
government or municipalities and service organizations.
To begin our committee work I have scheduled three conference calls for October. I have also planned
some committee work time for the November 9 MCSC meeting. The conference calls are open to all
Commissioners and MCSC staff. If you were not at the MCSC retreat, please join a committee and meet
us on the conference call. Janice Harvey will send out conference call reminders, phone numbers and pin
numbers.
Monday October 24 - 3:00 p.m. - Mentor Michigan Committee
Tuesday October 25-9:00 a.m.- Cool Companies/Cool Cities Committee
Thursday October 27- 9:00a.m.- Great Media Committee
Looking forward to talking to you then.

                    <text>Great Media Conference Call Notes
October 27, 2005

Marketing Strategy:

Objective: In order to meet our Commission Goals (Mentor Michigan, Cool Cities and
Great Media), we need to develop customized structured marketing tools to engage any
segment of the community we decide to interface with. The development of these tools
would afford us a marketing model throughout the state that all volunteers,
commissioners and others could easily identify with and articulate. It is a model that is
successfully utilized by the U.S. Census Bureau and a model that was successfully used
with Detroit's Promise.
I.

The tools would take form of customized volunteerism fact sheets/commitment
forms that encourage, identify and offer suggested forms ofvolunteerism for
specific sectors.
a.
Recommended Sector Fact Sheets/Commitment Form could be for the
business community, faith-based entities, sports teams, education
institutions, specialty groups, sports teams, community groups,
individuals, the media etc.

II.

Each sheet would be customized to speak to how volunteerism creates and
nurtures stronger communities in that specific sector.

III.

The second part of the sheet could be used to allow entity to explain how they are
already involved, ask them to step up more, solicit involvement if it does not
exist, provide examples of how and provide a entity contact who will have the
time to interface with commission staff or volunteers for ongoing dialogue.

IV.

Benefits of structured marketing tools: Any commissioner, staff or volunteer can
pitch volunteerism in a coordinated fashion anywhere in the state. The structure
lends itself to measurables because you would have a commitment form
completed by the entity and follow-up can easily be ensued. The commitments
garnered from the entities can be utilized for peer leveraging as an incentive for
an annual report-out (perhaps during the GSA).

Great Media Strategy
Objective: To gain more media partners to help tell our wonderful stories, create more
volunteerism awareness, create more volunteers and help make volunteerism a mainstay
in all of our communities. Utilizing the above marketing tool strategy. I propose the
development of customized fact sheet/commitment forms for media partners. The sheet
could begin with a message about the need to create more awareness about various forms
of community volunteerism aimed at making and nurturing stronger communities.

�I.

The tool would also allow the media partner to describe any volunteerism
currently undertaken by their agency and it would allow the commission to
request additional asks specific to our needs (i.e., Regular run of psa's, interviews
on public affairs programming, interviews with key announcers during major
drive time hours, the recoding of public service announcements around certain
commission activities or events, the request for a station promotion around a
commission activity of event, editorials supporting a commission event or
activity, etc.).

II.

Comcast creation of public service announcements (Perhaps 3-4 that could be
customized for state regions) encouraging volunteerism throughout the state. I
propose a doughnut announcement. The beginning of the announcement would
feature the governor and first gentleman talking about the importance of
volunteerism and its effect on our community; their intro would be followed by a
series of short cut-ways to 3-4 community residents acknowledging their form of
community volunteerism ( ex. bus driver leaning out his bus window saying he is
a mentor, a senior citizen saying they volunteer at the local elementary school as
a guest reader, a sports team player saying he or she is a brig brother/big sister,
etc.) the cut-away vignettes would be followed by the governor and first
gentleman providing information on how to connect to volunteering in one's
community.

Food for Thought
The U.S Census Bureau has local libraries where volunteers could be taught how
to pull census data on children in poverty throughout the state. The bureau, I'm
told does a yearly poverty report and they would be willing to train our volunteers
to retrieve this data and how to use it. This data could be crucial, if a community
has not done a recent "Needs Assessment". The U.S. figures are the benchmarks
anyway. The information can also be retrieved on-line once individuals are
taught how to do so.

*

•

If kids in poverty are our nucleus for mentoring, we have to be careful in
communities were poverty is low and volunteerism is high. I would want to have
some dialogue around this issue, I think one of our ultimate goals is to nurture and
create volunteerism.

•

Bob Khale could be consulted on the fact sheet/commitment forms; there may be
some measurables that we need that he can identify.

•

Perhaps the first fact sheet/commitment form template examples should be for the
business community, media and specialty organizations who can solicit mentors
since these are the identified areas of outreach for the commission. If you agree,
we can come up with some examples for the next board meeting.

BACKGROUND:
Michigan 's ArneriCorps is similar to a domestic Peace Corps. ArneriCorps programs are housed within
nonprofit organizations, schools, and other agencies throughout the state. Individuals, called members,
tutor and mentor children, help the homeless, feed the hungry, protect the environment, and more.
Currently, there are more than 50 ,000 ArneriCorps members serving nationwide. Michigan 's
AmeriCorps programs tout more than 900 members serving in 21 programs across the state. In an
average year, Michigan 's ArneriCorps members help improve the lives of more than 115 ,000 people and
recruit approximately 18,000 volunteers.
The Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC), a state agency that manages Michigan ' s
AmeriCorps, provides vision and resources to strengthen communities through volunteerism. In 2005-06,
the MCSC is providing more than $6.8 million in federal resources to local communities for volunteer
programs and activities- including Michigan 's ArneriCorps, Learn and Serve - Michigan, and Michigan
Citizen Corps. Other programs of the MCSC include Mentor Michigan and the Governor's Service
Awards.

Great Media Conference Call Notes

Marketing Strategy:

Objective: In order to meet our Conm1ission Goals (Mentor Michigan, Cool Cities and Great
Media), we need to develop customized structured marketing tools to engage any segment of the
community we decide to interface with. The development of these tools would afford us a
marketing model throughout the state that all volunteers, commissioners and others could easily
identify with and articulate. It is a model that is successfully utilized by the U.S. Census Bureau
and a model that was successfully used with Detroit's Promise.
I.

The tools would take fom1 of customized volunteerism fact sheets/commitment forms
that encourage, identify and offer suggested forms ofvolunteerism for specific sectors.
a.
Recommended Sector Fact Sheets/Commitment Form could be for the
business community, faith-based entities, sports teams, education institutions,
specialty groups, sports teams, community groups, individuals, the media etc.

II.

Each sheet would be customized to speak to how volunteerism creates and nurtures
stronger communities in that specific sector.

III.

The second part of the sheet could be used to allow entity to explain how they are already
involved, ask them to step up more, solicit involvement if it does not exist, provide
examples of how and provide a entity contact who will have the tinle to interface with
commission staff or volunteers for ongoing dialogue.

IV.

Benefits of structured marketing tools: Any commissioner, staff or volunteer can pitch
volunteerism in a coordinated fashion anywhere in the state. The structure lends itself to
measurables because you would have a commitment form completed by the entity and
follow-up can easily be ensued. The commitments garnered from the entities can be
utilized for peer leveraging as an incentive for an annual report-out (perhaps during the
GSA).

Great Media Strategy
Objective: To gain more media partners to help tell our wonderful stories, create more
volunteerism awareness, create more volunteers and help make volunteerism a mainstay in all of

��Commissioners' Commitment to Goals I Programs
2005-06
GREAT MEDIA
3. We will tell the story of Michigan's national leadership position and
prototype the Michigan volunteer infrastructure. We will let others know what's
great and strong about volunteerism in Michigan. We will tell the positive
Michigan story of this coordinated initiative using community and corporate
volunteerism to solve large Michigan problems. We will demonstrate the
cooperative model between MCSC, CMA, VCM, MNA, MCC and Michigan's
Promise.
Currently these MCSC Commissioners and friends have pledged time to support
this committee:

MCSC Commissioners

Janet Lawson, Executive Director

RE:

MCSC Board Meeting on November 9, 2005

Attached you will fmd the supplemental materials that were distributed during our meeting on
November 9, 2005. The Commissioners participated in the AmeriCorps Member Celebration
Opening Ceremony and then commenced for the board meeting. During the board meeting,
there was a presentation by Jordan O'Neil, from the Together We Prepare American Red Cross
of West Michigan AmeriCorps program. There was an afternoon work session where the
Commissioners divided into work groups to focus on the three goal areas of Mentor Michigan,
Cool Companies/Cool Cities and Great Media. You will be receiving the notes from these work
groups in the next few days. The Board Members enjoyed seeing the enthusiasm of the
AmeriCorps members as they kicked off their year of service.
The next MCSC Board Meeting will be held on Thursday, February 16, from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00
p.m. (lunch will be available at noon) at the University of Michigan-Flint. This meeting will be
held in conjunction with the 101h Annual Institute on Service Learning. Commissioners are
invited to stay for the dinner and awards ceremony where the Service-Learning Awards will be
announced.
I look forward to working with you over the next few months on the goals and outcomes from
the work sessions.

Commission goals and Department of Human Services Anti-Poverty Agenda.
We will challenge local communities to identify kids at risk of failing and/or
dropping out of school. We will link those students with corporations, service
clubs and media outlets to move the needle in 2006 toward personal success for
kids.

Re: MCSC Updates

&gt;&gt;&gt; Janet Lawson 10/ 28/ 05 9:39AM &gt;&gt;&gt;
Good morning - Our next MCSC meeting is November 9 at Cobo Hall. The Commission meeting will be wrapped
"inside" the AmeriCorps Member Celebration. It will be a wonderful opportunity for Commissioners to meet
AmeriCorps members and see displays and samplings of the programs they represent around Michigan. You will
see in the annotated agenda below that there are two special events -one at the beginning of the day and one
at the end - where your presence is requested if your schedule permits.

• 10:00 a.m. - Opening ceremonies in the Port Side Ballroom for the AmeriCorps Member Celebration with
a welcome by Commissioner Bernard Parker and remarks by First Gentleman Dan Mulhern. Please join
us if your schedule allows.
• 11:30 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. - MCSC meeting and working lunch begins in room W2-71.
• 1:00 p.m. -Commissioners join the AmeriCorps Celebration in progress . MCSC Commissioners will judge
the AmeriCorps displays and "spirit" competition.
• 1:30 p.m. -Commission meeting re-convenes in Room W2-71
• 2:50 p.m. -Conclusion of MCSC meeting .
• 3:00 p.m. - Honorable Dennis W. Archer will swear in the AmeriCorps members and give the keynote
address.
Jan ice Harvey will send you a detailed agenda in a future communication. Board books will be sent
electronically this month because they have few attachments and are dramatically thinner than usual.
Under the category of "Commission and Commissioner updates" we want to con ratulate Jerry Seese
who played on a Colorado basketball team last month and won the World Basket
Championship at St.
George Utah in the Huntsman Senior World Games. Congratulations to Dan Mulhern who competed in his
second marathon in Detroit two weeks ago and completed this year's marathon in under four hours . Joan
Bowman also ran that same day in Detroit in her first half-marathon and was very successful. Paula Kaiser
VanDam is in the hospital presently and will be giving birth to a future AmeriCorps member any moment/ hour
now.
See you on November 9. All the best, Janet

Review of Executive Committee Meeting
Chairperson Mulhern discussed the minutes of the August 26, 2005
Executive Committee meeting which were distributed to board members.
During the meeting (via conference call) they discussed the agenda for the
September 22-23 Board Retreat and Meeting and staff recommendations
for the Learn &amp; Serve School-Based Funding. A memo from Paula Kaiser
dated August 24, 2005, outlined the proposals. Chairperson Mulhern
shared that there was discussion of the schools that don' t apply for the
funding and that the MCSC is going to try to be more pro-active in
targeting charter schools and the city public schools.

Updates on Progress and Challenges
A.

Volunteer CenterNIG Update - Bob Kahle presented on the Volunteer
Centers ofMichigan Impact Evaluation. There are 32 Volunteer Centers
around the state. The purpose was to take a look at them to see the work
that they are doing, their strengths and weaknesses, and how can to
improve the efficiencies of their outcomes. Through Phase I of the
project, Mr. Kahle wanted to find out the Volunteer Centers' success
stories, get feedback on their expansion and how to move the volunteer
movement to cover all the counties in the state, and understand their
affiliation with the Points of Light Foundation. He met with several
organizations including Volunteer Centers both in Michigan and other
states, telephone focus groups, funding sources, and the Points of Light
Foundation.
Key findings ofPhase I: There is wide diversity in organization, services
provided and other dimensions. The first commonality of all the centers
is that they connect volunteers with opportunities to serve. The second is
their work as conveners or collaborators. There is very little useful
evaluation data, tools or resources in place. They do not think or operate

2

�in terms of impact. Process, not outcome, is the primary focus. Services
provided by Volunteer Centers are often intangible, perceived as
immeasurable, difficult to defme. There is tension within the Volunteer
Center environment nationally and locally, and between POLF and United
Way. They are at a crucial crossroad because the POLF is requesting the
Volunteer Centers sign on to an Affiliation Agreement. The Volunteer
Centers have three concerns around the agreement: "Super Brand", core
programs, and shared fundraising. Also the trust and confidence in
POLF is quite low among Volunteer Center leaders. Many Michigan
Volunteer Centers would like to expand but they feel they don't have the
resources to even continue providing the same level of service they are
today.
Key Implications: Impact evaluation requires more than research. There
needs to be common tools, training, and common definitions ofwhat' s
necessary for the outcome/impact research. Most important, the mindsets
of the Volunteer Center leaders needs to be changed from being focused
on process and self sustainability to being focused on producing
documented outcome for their community.
Recommendations: Rethink the data collection approaches for phase II,
develop component style database, the definitions being defined, and
flexible components to capture the uniqueness.
B.

Executive Director's Report - Janet Lawson gave a brief update on MCSC
issues. Ms. Lawson shared that the National Governor's Association has
developed a National and Community Service Policy which recognizes the
importance of service. She also shared that the CNCS has developed a
new strategic plan (a copy of the draft plan was distributed) and is open
for comments. The MCSC has a new e-mentoring opportunity that Janet
and Amber Reiss have been working on with Oakland Schools and the
Department ofLabor and Economic Growth (DLEG).
Kathy Young-Welch discussed the U.S . Census model on a community
awareness effort to get people engaged. The MCSC could duplicate that
model to make every sector of the community aware ofvolunteerism and
service. There is something everybody could use to support volunteerism.
There would be strategic asks for each of the sectors. If the conversation
is with corporations, can they make sure there is a volunteer message in
their weekly newsletters or can they create a volunteer program within
their organization that employees can support. Can a church do something
to create more mentors. Bob Kahle could possibly help create some
measurables as the asks are made. The Governor Service Awards could
be tied to recognizing volunteerism in individual municipalities. Kathy
took this model of awareness to the Detroit Promise and it was very
successful.

�C.

Staff Retreat- Ms. Lawson shared that, thanks to Commissioner Whipple,
the MCSC staff had a staff retreat in August at the Consumers Energy
Retreat Center in South Haven. One of the key outcomes of the staff
session of where the Commission needs to go was to develop a plan to
develop and maintain relationships. This would be obtained by educating
stakeholders and legislators, strengthening ties with local partners and
grantees, developing local champions, creating stronger relationships with
alumni and friends, and creating stronger alliances with CMF, CMA,
National Mentoring Partnership, etc. There was also conversation on
how the MCSC staff can do a better job of engaging Commissioners in a
better way than has previously been done.

D.

Mentor Michigan - Ms. Lawson introduced Amber Reiss, the Mentor
Michigan Program Coordinator. Amber gave a brief summary of her
background. Ms. Lawson explained that the Mentor Michigan Providers
Council has been working on quality program standards. At the four
regional meetings this summer, the standards were discussed and attendees
had the opportunity to provide feedback. Amber explained the eleven
standards:
Standard 1: Definition of Mentoring - definition of mentoring, consistent
contact, 4-10 hours together each month, and group ratio established.
Standard 2: Recruitment Plan - a recruitment plan for mentors and
mentees and a system for follow-up
Standard 3: Eligibility Screening - program screens mentors and metnees
for eligibility.
Standard 4: Orientation and training - program provides mentor, mentee
and parent/guardian orientation and training by trained staff or volunteers.
Standard 5: Matching Strategy - program has a well-documented
matching strategy.
Standard 6: Match Monitoring Process - program maintains and
implements a process that monitors matches.
Standard 7: Mentor Support, Recognition, and Retention- program
supports the mentoring relationships, recognized volunteers, and strategies
for volunteer rentention.
Standard 8: Match Closure - program has a process for match closure.
Standard 9: Program Evaluation - program conducts an evaluation
process. This is one of the most changing measures for mentoring
programs.
Standard 10: Organizational Management - program has established
organizational management practices.
Standard 11: Governance - program has a governance structure.
The standards have been very well received by the mentoring
organizations. The Providers Council will be making these final in
October. There are plans to look at the standards and look at the results

4

�of the census and develop trainings to get organizations in line with these
standards.
Mary Grill gave a brief update on National Mentoring Month (January)
and the activities that MCSC will be doing. The Detroit Pistons will be
participating in National Mentoring Month. There will be a PSA with a
Pistons player, Governor Granholm and Dan Mulhern that will be played
throughout the month during the games and throughout the state. On
MLK day, there will be an on-court presentation recognizing mentors and
a booth set up on mentoring. Commissioners will be asked to consider
doing an op-ed article on mentoring for local papers and to participate in
local activities in their communities. Keep in mind that January 25 is
"Thank Your Mentor Day" and there will be several events going on
around that. Chairperson Mulhern asked the Commissioners to be
proactive about National Mentoring Month, try to connect with
organizations in their local communities to promote mentoring, and to
contact local media (radio, newspapers, etc) to promote mentoring.
Ms. Lawson distributed the Mentor Michigan Budget to Commissioners
and gave an update on contributions from Governor's Service Awards,
John Hancock, Siemens, Detroit Auto Dealers Association, Hudson Weber
and National Mentoring Partnership.
E.

Review ofMCSC Budget and Audit Resolution - Garry Gross gave an
update on MCSC Budget. He also presented the preliminary audit
findings . The MCSC faired very well on the audit as there was only one
reportable condition for inclusion in the audit report.

F.

Cross Stream Training - Megan Sargent presented information on the
Cross Stream Training event that will be taking place on October 20-21.
The MCSC will partner with the CNCS Michigan office for a
collaboration and training event for all national service programs in
Michigan. The goal is to get all service streams to work better together.
Commissioners are welcome to attend.

G.

CMA/Serve Michigan Update - Kyle Caldwell explained the
ConnectMichigan Alliance (CMA) and the partnerships between CMA,
MCSC, Michigan Nonprofit Association, Michigan Campus Compact and
Michigan Volunteers Center.

H.

AmeriCorps a. Standards - Andy Younger shared that the MCSC has been working on
AmeriCorps standards. He explained that the AmeriCorps Program
Coordinators at MCSC have been working with their programs to
make sure they are in compliance with the national and state policies
around AmeriCorps. All of the technical assistance and trainings that

5

�the MCSC holds for the programs focus on these areas so that they
don't fail around these policies and have audit issues. The MCSC is
creating benchmarks for what a high quality program would look like.
Over the past several months, an AmeriCorps committee has worked
with a national technical assistance provider to bring MCSC staff,
former and current AmeriCorps program directors that have a
knowledge and understanding of AmeriCorps and what good, high
quality program would look like to develop a set of standards and
criteria. The MCSC is still in the process of developing and defining
the standards. There are six major areas under which there are
standards. Those include site success, member success,
communication impact, sustainability, community strengthening and
involvement, and evaluations and impact. The final standards will be
rolled out the first of the year.
b. Rulemaking- Andy Younger gave a brief overview of the new
AmeriCorps Rule. A summary of the new rule was included in the
Commissioner board packets. The key points that will affect the
MCSC are around the sustainability and match criteria. Other areas
include the fundraising activities that members engage in and around
the tutoring requirements. One of the biggest areas that could
potentially affect the MCSC is the state commissions flexibility to
operate a national service program.
I.

Service Learning - Jeanine Yard shared information on a survey done by
Public Sector Consultants on Service Learning in Michigan. A copy of
the Executive Summary was distributed to Commissioners. One of the
key findings was that there are more teachers and students engaged in
service learning than in 2002. Another finding is that service learning is
happening with individual teachers, and not necessarily district wide. It
was also learned that high schools are more likely to have service learning
along with urban schools, rather than suburban or rural schools. One of
the conclusions of the survey was that there is plenty of room for
expansiOn.

J.

Governor' s Service Awards - Mary Grill went over the GSA Financial
Summary and the recommendation for the MCSC portion ofthe funds .
After splitting the funds with the Michigan Campus Compact, the MCSC
will have $83,889.

Chairperson Mulhern thanked the MCSC staff for their commitment to the MCSC
and its mission.

Program Highlight- AmeriCorps
Janet Lawson introduced Jordan O'Neil, from Together We Prepare, American Red
Cross of West Michigan. Mr. O'Neil gave an overview of their AmeriCorps
program. Their mission is to provide vital emergency assistance to victims in
communities affected by disasters and to increase preparedness in the areas of
greatest need before disaster strikes by recruiting, training and supporting young
adults, integrate conununity outreach and educate on homeland security. There are
several different focus sights in the Together We Prepare AmeriCorps program.
They have nine hosts sites around the state that are American Red Cross Chapters
that host 17 members at those sites. Another piece of the program is National
Disaster Response. All the members serve on two 3-week assignments throughout
their 10 Y2 months of service. Out of the 17 members, 14 members served a
combined total of2,732 hours over 3 weeks assisting over 47,000 people that were
affected by Hurricane Katrina and Rita. Another component of the disaster
response is that the Red Cross responds to every house fire, providing emergency
assistance for food, clothing and shelter for those families . During the first 2 Yz
months of the program the members will respond to disasters 24 hours a day 7 days
a week and 95 % of the incidents will be residential fires.
One of their big goals is youth services. Over the next tlu·ee years of this grant
cycle, they would like to recruit 500 youth under the age of 24. They have created
a youth program called Club Red at the nine sites. Another goal over the next three
years is to recruit 800 new volunteers to the American Red Cross.

place. Ms. Lawson thanked Vivian Pickard, an outgoing Commissioner,
for everything she has done for the MCSC. Ms. Pickard was not able to
make it to the September board meeting where the presentations to outgoing
Conunissioners were made. Chairperson Mulhern also thanked Ms.
Pickard for dedication to the MCSC.

B.

Mentor Michigan - Amber Reiss gave an update on the Mentor Michigan
Census Wave III. Bob Kahle again conducted the census and will have the
results in January. There are Mentor Michigan AmeriCorps members

�coming on board. There will be 30 members throughout the state dedicated
to the goals of the standards ofMentor Michigan. National Mentoring
Month will be in January. There will be several activities taking place
around the state. There is a toolkit on the Mentor Michigan website that
will help mentoring organizations plan their events during the month. The
First Gentleman will also be participating in media events around the state.
The MCSC would also like to invite the commissioners to participate in
events in their conmmnities. Chairman Mulhern asked that if
conunissioners have media contacts in their local areas, to get in touch with
Mary Grill to schedule interviews with both the commissioner and Mr.
Mulhern. Also, January 25 is Thank Your Mentor Day so that would be a
great opportunity for conunissioners to call into their local radio stations to
thank their mentors on the air. Conunissioner Joe Sowmick offered to help
distribute PSA's through his media contacts. Kari Pardoe shared that the
Pistons have taped a PSA with Mr. Mulhern and Chauncey Billups that will
air throughout the month of January at the Pistons games. They will also
have a special presentation during the halftime of the Pistons game on MLK
Day (January 16). There will also be a kiosk area for Mentor Michigan
material. The Pistons will also give 200 tickets out to mentoring
organizations. Ms. Reiss also stated that Mentor Michigan is encouraging
mentoring organizations to volunteer on MLK Day. Kyle Caldwell stated
that an easy way to rebuild the relationship with the legislature is to possibly
have them do proclamations around National Mentoring Month.
Ms. Lawson shared that she has been researching a great way to market
Mentor Michigan called The Giving Game. But she found out that Kathy
Agard from Learning to Give has already been researching the same
program. She gave background on tllis card that would be passed on when
you did something nice for someone or a service project. The hope is to
have these cards ready for National Mentoring Month. Vivian Pickard
asked whether corporations could be sponsors for the cards. Ms. Lawson
said that she thought they could but would need to speak with Learning to
Give first.
Chairman Mulhern gave a brief overview of Mentor Michigan so that the
new Conunissioners will have some background. Most of the programs at
the MCSC are driven by revenue resources (Learn and Serve, AmeriCorps,
Citizen Corps). Mentor Michigan is an initiative of the Governor's and is
used as a symbol of volunteerism and a real effort to get mentors involved.
Mentor Michigan and the MCSC works with the Volunteer Centers of
Michigan and Michigan Campus Compact and ConnectMiclligan Alliance
to get their voltmteer conmmnities involved with mentoring. The Mentor
Michigan effort began without any funding, with no statutory requirements
or authority, and without any data of who were mentoring, how they were
mentoring, what kind of kids were being mentored, screetling activities, etc.
Bob Kahle has done a great deal of research for the MCSC on mentoring

through surveying the mentoring organizations three times over the past 16
months. So a good pichn·e of mentoring is developing. After the MCSC
received the infonnation from Bob Kahle, it was assesses as to whether they
were mentoring agencies or youth serving agencies that did some sort of
mentoring. It was then discovered the organizations didn't have any
standards or best-practices. Standards were established last year and in the
last census to the mentoring organizations, some questions were added that
related to the standards asking whether the organizations whether they are
already doing this, how many are doing it, or what do they need to do this.
What may have been a counting process in the beginning is now evolving
into a quality-developing tool now. The good news is great quality things
are improving for kids in mentoring programs now. With these new
standards, there may not be as many mentoring progran1s that fall within the
definition of mentoring in the standards, but the programs that do are the
programs that will have better quality.

C.

Governor's Service Awards - Mary Grill gave an update on the 2006
Governor's Service Awards. She shared that the event will change a little
this year with the MCSC hoping to include a headliner to host the event
(trying for Tim Allen). She also asked any Cmmnissioners that want to be
on the GSA planning committee to contact her. She is also looking for
someone to chair the fundraising committee. Vivian Pickard has offered to
"mentor" the new fundraising chair.

D.

Financial Report - Garry Gross gave an overview of the MCSC Financial
Report.

Adjourn
The meeting was adjourned at 1:00pm. The Commissioners judged the
AmeriCorps Member Celebration program displays and then returned for a

RE:

MCSC Board Meeting on Wednesday, November 9, 2005

Attached is the information for the MCSC Board Meeting on Wednesday, November 9, 2005 .
The meeting will be held at Cobo Hall in Detroit (directions attached). We will have some new
Commissioners joining us and look forward to welcoming them to the Commission.
Our meeting will be held in conjunction with the Michigan AmeriCorps Member Celebration.
This is an excellent opportunity for Commissioners to meet the AmeriCorps members and find
out more about their programs.
The Opening Session will take place in the Riverside Ballroom and will begin at 10:00 am with
Commissioner Bernard Parker and First Gentleman Dan Mulhern giving welcome remarks.
The MCSC Board Meeting will begin at 11:30 am and will take place in Room W2-61 . We
will have a working lunch during our Board Meeting and a work session in the afternoon to
focus on the three goal areas that came out of the MCSC Board Retreat (Mentor Michigan, Cool
Companies/Cool Cities, Great Media). The Board Meeting will conclude at 2:50pm so that we
can join the Closing Ceremonies of the AmeriCorps Member Celebration where Former Detroit
Mayor Dennis Archer will be the keynote speaker.
I look forward to seeing you on Wednesday, November 9, 2005 at Cobo Hall.
