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: Rob Collier Shaun VanHorn AI Swain Larry Williamson Mike Thomas Kathy Young-Welch �Great Media Conference Call Notes October 27, 2005 Participants: Rob Collier Al Swain Shaun VanHorn Kathy Young-Welch Janet Lawson Janice Harvey 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 of volunteerism 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. Ill. 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 commumtles. 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 ofpsa'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 ofvolunteerism 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 Kahle 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. �Page 1 of 1 Janice Harvey - Re: Mentoring &.

It was good to be a part of the recent conference call. As I reflect on some of the choices that we have for connecting with our "cool CEO's" to promote "mentoring" I do believe that we are missing a key element. .. i.e. the Michigan community colleges. There are 28 of these valuable institutions that typically are the most respected, local resource for business development in their respective communities. Each of these institutions will have a quite extensive network of advisory bodies directly linked to their business communities. Actually, since most of the training which the business community receives originates with these institutions, the colleges will have better connections with them than virtually any other entity ... including the ISD's. Second, my impression from our visit was that we are concentrating most of our attention for promoting mentoring in the southeast Michigan arena ... i.e. Compuware, Lear, GM, etc. Certainly, there are some substantial #'s within these ranks, but I would suggest to you that if the concept is to be successful, we must also look aggressively outstate. Again, I do not believe that we can find any substantial area of population outside of southeast Michigan that does not have a well respected, community college. Anyway, just a couple of thoughts. Please advise if you wish any assistance with contact with these institutions and if you wish me to attend the Nov. 9 meeting? I do not wish to be seen as a "hanger on", but if there is anything that you wish me to assist with in promoting the concept. .. ! will be pleased to help. Best wishes ...

To celebrate success, we must define what success is-for the organization, teams, or individuals.) (Some notes for intro: Celebrations connect deeply to our individual psyches and organizational culture, affirming and developing identity, quality, value, and meaning. Each factor is an essential element of a successful organization. In celebrating accomplishment, organizations are taking care to nourish individuals and groups by: • • • • Affirming identity, giving essential recognition affirming a sense of self and group; Giving meaning to our work, bracketing significant experience and naming it as an accomplishment to bring out meaning that might be lost or under-appreciated in the flow of events; Benchmarking quality, telling the entire organization that "this" is what we mean by "good" or "excellent," "this" is how we judge quality in this organization; and Assigning value to our accomplishments, saying that these accomplishments are worthy, we value them, they are to be emulated. Celebrating accomplishments provides support for staff undergoing change. Change is no longer the exception but the norm for contemporary organizations. But remember that change involves not just those obvious breaks from the past like starting a new initiative, appointing a new executive director, or adopting a new curriculum. Contemporary organizations exist in a sea of subtle or simple interactions, where, like organisms, staff interact in perpetual evolution, change is the norm. We are constantly interacting with co-workers to interpret and give meaning to ambiguous events. ) Let's look at our accomplishments: (Slide show?)

You may find something you like or they may help to spark some ideas. This list is followed by a couple of recommended icebreakers and reflection activities. High Stakes Happening Playing our Cards Right Bettin' on Good Time Opening Icebreaker: Name Tag Switch: Ask everyone to write up to five self-descriptive phrases on a nametag, like "sleepy head, hunter, workout queen, shopaholic" along with one big learning goal for the day. ( no name included) Collect and redistribute at random. Give the group time to locate the owner of the mysterious nametag, and then have them introduce the person, whose nametag they found. Day I end of day reflection: Applying the Knowledge "3-2-1": Participants respond individually on cards to the following prompt: 3 specific new tools or strategies that I might use 2 specific things I learned or was reminded about my own work style and performance 1 area where I'd like to focus tomorrow or 1 question that I have Final reflection: All Tied Up Have the group stand in a circle. Holding the end of a ball of string, hand the ball off to a participant. Ask them to reflect on a particular question (e.g. what was something that ............. ?). Once they have answered the question ask them to hold onto their piece of the string and to pass the ball onto someone else. Continue the process until everyone has reflected on the question, and has a section of string in their hands. When completed, you should have something that looks like a web. When they are all done talking, make some points about the interconnectedness of staff, how they are all part of the solution, how would things be different if one person does not contribute to the organization's outcomes, etc. J � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The Commission is also ethnically and geographically diverse. The MCSC is chaired by First Lady Michelle Engler who has taken an active role in the Commission and the promotion of its mission around the state. The Michia:an Principles for Servjce Effective service is a process of lifelong learning and citizenship. Effective service must prove a lasting impact on participants and the community. Effective service provides individuals with the opportunities to practice their rights and responsibilities as community members. Effective service encourages inclusive communities to build bridges, respect uniqueness, and share resources for the common good. Effective service strengthens multi-cultural communities and affirms social diversity. Effective service requires organizations to be open, ready and capable of providing meaningful opportunities. Effective service requires all participants to be connected to the American social system allowing personal independence and creating community interdependence. Effective service charges all organizations and individuals to constantly develop strategies to achieve these principles.

The Commission realizes that its role in the community service arena involves the bringing together of service organizations, communities and their members for collaborative efforts and to act as a provider of technical assistance. Youth are continually seen as a major asset to and participants of the Commission and Michigan's community service community. Efforts have been taken to include and highlight youth involvement in Commission decisions and initiatives. Two young people serve as commissioners. Our state has been chosen as one of nine states to host a Points of Light Foundation Youth Engaged in Service (YES) Ambassador to promote service and service learning among youth. The Michigan Youth Progressive Action Council (MYPAC) has secured $25,000 for Youth Voice projects under a grant from the Commission on National and Community Service. Michigan is looked upon as a national leader in community service and is heralded as a state with a vast and integrated community service infrastructure. Continuing efforts on the part of the Commission to guarantee Michigan's lead are listed below. The Mjchjean Community Serxice Commjssion; • secured $1.6 million dollars in federal monies for the funding youth, community, education and corps community service initiatives (see "Application to the Commission on National and Community Service"). • has been featured as one of the leading states in the community service arena as part of a nationally distributed case study conducted by Youth Service America for the Corporation on National and Community Service. • is a major player in the National and Community Service Coalition. The Coalition is a body of community service organizations and individuals from around the nation. Members were solicited by the Commission on National and Community Service to provide technical assistance and consultation to federal legislators concerning laws and regulations in the area of service. • developed a national model for Youth Voice within the field of Youth Service named the Michigan Youth Progressive Action Council (MYPAC). (See Youth Voice) �The l\1ichigan Con1n1unit)' Service Plan The historic National and Community Service Act of 1990 (NCSA) created the Commission on National and Community Service (CNCS). In an effort to make local impact, the CNCS issued a Request For Proposals (RFP) for funding under the NCSA in the late Fall of 1991. The RFP encouraged states to submit comprehensive plans reflecting cross-stream collaboration and a holistic approach to youth service and community action. The MCSC,the entity in Michigan designed to bring the streams of service together, was designated as the state's lead agency. Reasonably, the first major task of the Michigan Community Service Commission was to develop a comprehensive Michigan plan for submission to the Commission on National and Community Service. While developing the plan, the MCSC, and other key individuals and organizations, identified the following elements as essential to a successful Michigan initiative: Programs must be built around local community needs and interests. Young people and community program practitioners must be involved in policy development and program design. Programs must be representative of their communities; diversity of participants is essential. Programs must build on existing resources and strengths. The business community must be involved. A statewide training capacity in the best practices for youth service programs must be developed. A comprehensive and coordinated statewide information clearinghouse for programs, organization, and existing resources. Sufficient rewards, incentives and recognition to promote service should be developed. The initiatives outlined in the next section reflect Michigan's commitment to ensure that every person in the state has access to opportunities to help solve our most urgent social problems. �The l\1ichigan Con1n1unity Service Plan The National and Community Service Trust Act of 1993 On September 21, 1993, President Bill Clinton signed into law the National and Community Service Trust Act of 1993. This legislation provides for compensated community service participants called Americorps, establishment of state commissions, federal recognition of the community service movement, and technical assistance and support for community service programs. The new task put to the Commission as a result of this legislation is to reconfigure its membership to be in line with this national legislation, establish procedures for placement of Americorps participants and create evaluation procedures for programs funded under the 1993 Act. Staffing will need to expand to accommodate new and more challenging responsibilities. Michigan is in an unique position. With the establishment of a state commission by executive order in 1991 by Governor John Engler, Michigan asserted itself, again, as a leader in the community service arena. The 1993 Act requires that states appoint lead agencies to receive, manage and distribute federal dollars. Michigan's forsight in building a strong state-wide infrastructure places it ahead of many other states in its preparedness to receive federal monies for community service initiatives. You believe in idealism. And you practice idealism. And you learn that reaching for idealism is practical. And with time, and with a little care, you begin to see a little bit of light for places, before you found only darlmess. And then you soon will fmd idealism is not only practical--but it is a reality. Mala Mirchandani, Student Community Service Award Recipient, Michigan Campus Compact Annual Conference, March 6, 1992. Mala Mirchandani's words have served as a rally cry and a focal point for the Michigan Community Service Commission. Much of the Michigan Vision reflects what is eloquently articulated in her speech. The Commission believes that community citizenry can be the most effective vehicles for service to others. It is only through the meeting of local needs and involvement of local citizens that community service can work. The Michigan Vision has operated on these basic principles and attempts to focus the attention of community service initiatives on communities. �The Michigan Vision directs and expands community service missions administered by the Commission. The ambitious goals scribed in this institution's framework through the Michigan Vision act to ensure the feasibility of the compressive, yet centered plans of the Commission. Great pride can be taken in this year's accomplishments. Steps toward involving youth voices in decision-making, planning for strategic placement in the future of the community service field and constant collaborative efforts keep the core themes of the Commission alive. Empowering communities to serve ensures the existence a body of citizens in service to Michigan. Progress on Initiatives Outlined by The Michigan Vision The following initiative statements come directly from the text of The Michigan Vision. Following each initiative statement is a brief summary of the action taken by the Commission in 1992-1993. Encourage young people to become advocates for service and civic participation in their communities. One strategy will be to establish a statewide youth body on community service. This youth body will act as a standing committee of the Commission and will create a network ofyouth across the streams of service and ensure that young people will continue to play a role in the development ofyouth service policy. The Michigan Youth Progressive Action Council (MYPAC) was established in September, 1992 and consists of 16 members, ages 12 to 20, from every region of the state. The MYPAC continues offering its input by participating on all standing committees of the Commission. Therefore, the council is able to introduce and review policies which go before the MCSC, participate in strategic planning, and play a role in every level of the Commission's work. Like MCSC members, MYPAC members are strong advocates for service, volunteerism, and civic participation in their communities. Some MYPAC input include participating on screening committees for K-12, Higher Education and Youth Voice subgrantees and screening agents for award review committees for the Governor and Michigan Community Service Commission Community Service Awards. The Points ofLightFoundationPoints ofLight Youth Engaged in Service (YES) Ambassador has acted as an advocate for Youth Voice initiatives in Michigan. Youth Forums for youth expression and community service planning have been held in Mount Pleasant, Alpena and Detroit. Collaborative efforts have also been conducted by the YES Ambassador and community foundation Youth Action Committees. �The l\1ichigan Vision Establish a multi-tier recognition/awards program. The first tier award will come from the state Commission and be made available to all who serve in organized youth and community service programs. The secondtierawardwiU be a Governor's award for exemplary service. The state Commission will also encourage local communities to develop and coordinate their own awards programs. The Governor and Michigan Community Service Commission Community Service Awards have been developed as a means to recognize positive efforts on the part of community members and organizations to engage in service programs. This award recognizes that there are several different citizen-based initiatives operating throughout Michigan that have made a noteworthy impact on communities and their members. Nomination categories include: Lifetime Achievement; Innovative Spirit; Youth, Adult and Senior Exemplary Community Service; Corporation/Business; Service-Learning Educator. Over 10,000 nomination forms were mailed out to community action agencies, intermediate school districts, local United Ways, churches, volunteer centers, and colleges and universities. Some 200 nomination forms returned for review by the selection committee. Final selections will be made in November, 1993. Promote and facilitate functional partnerships among appropriate organiwtions in every Michigan community. These partnerships will be organized initially around youth service program design structures. In all of the Requests for Proposals developed by the MCSC to solicit applications for monies granted under the National and Community Service Act of 1990 and the National Service Trust Act of 1993, we strongly encouraged local partnerships. Indeed, in some categories collaboration is required. Using our grantmaking capacity as leverage, the MCSC has acted as a catalyst for communication at the local level which has led to some exciting and creative partnerships. This collaborative spirit is present across all streams of the MCSC' s grantees and subgrantees. CoordilUlle program development and capacity building around the strengths and resources ofexistingprograms and organizations such as: Michigan 4-H,Michigan Campus Compact, National Youth Leadership Council's Service Learning Center, Michigan School Volunteers Program, Partnerships in Education, Volunteer Centers of Michigan, Michigan Nonprofit Forum, the Council of Michigan Foundations, Community Action Agencies and Private Industry Councils. The state will also strive to establish unifying thematic areas for program development and capacity building around service needs such as early age intervention, family support, and intergenerational programs. �The Michigan Community Service Commission has not established itself as the statewide coordinating body for developing the capacity of other organizations. It is still not at all clear that Michigan needs a state-level entity to function in this way. Further, there remains no consensus among Commissioners that they would like to see the MCSC move in this direction. The Commission, however, has been very supportive of others' work and has provided opportunities and incentives for organizations in Michigan to assist each other in program development and capacity building. The MCSC continues to develop and disseminate new tools and standards that promote community service and service learning. The Michigan Principles for Service were developed at a two-day work session held at the American Youth Foundation's Camp Miniwanca in Shelby (see "The Michigan Principles for Service"). These principles stand as a ruler to establish and evaluate service ventures. Identify and help coordinate public and private funding sources necessary to advance youth service. The MCSC continues to use its Fund Development Standing Committee to examine policy and guide initiatives toward establishing a stable funding base. Membership of the committee consists of key individuals from the public, private, and philanthropic sectors. Furthermore, the MCSC has accessed the National and Community Service Act of 1990 (NCSA) to bring funds aimed at youth service to the state and is moving forward to gain the same support from the National and Community Service Trust Act of 1993. Most of the monies from the NCSA have been subgranted throughout Michigan. All grantees are required to provide matching funds as well as viable sustainability strategies. Through it's grant making power, the MCSC has mobilized both federal and local dollars toward advancing youth service. The Commission is continuing to research legislative action that would secure sustained public support for community service in Michigan. Establish a state clearinghouse on service and volunteerism drawing upon the resources of the Michigan Campus Compact, Council of Michigan Foundations, Michigan Nonprofit Forum, Michigan Departments ofEducation and Labor, and Cooperative Extension 4-H, orfacilitate the development ofclearinghouses within each stream ofyouth service. The MCC has played the primary role in the development of several state clearinghouses on service and volunteerism. MCC is the host to the Midwest Regional Resource Center on Mentoring. Other initiatives include the Volunteer Centers of Michigan developing a toll-free statewide telephone volunteer referral service and the Partnership for New Education, in cooperation �The l\1ichigan Vision with the National Youth Leadership Council, has established a statewide K-12 Service Learning Center on the Campus of Michigan State University. Establish a statewide training model in youth service, in coordination with the clearinghouse, utiUzing the resources ofsuch organizations as the NatWnal Youth Leadership Council's Michigan Service Learning Center, Michigan 4-H, High Scope Educational/Research Foundation, Volunteer Centers ofMichigan, and the Michigan Campus Compact. Training wiU be made available to youth and adult volunteers, educators, corps members, state agency representatives, community leaders and other who are interested in the field of community service and service learning. In cooperation with the Michigan Campus Compact/Campus Outreach Opportunity League (COOL) and the Council of Michigan Foundations (CMF), and the Points of Light Foundation, the MCSC maintains a network of regional training capacities for young people throughout Michigan. The network taps into and supports the resources outlined in the vision and several others both in Michigan and in the nation. Establish a common terminology for youth service e.g clarify distinction between court-ordered service and community service. A major initiative in this area will be facilitated in 1994 by convening a meeting of informed and related parties to address the terminology and legal aspects of service and community service. Establish principles for effective youth service programs which incorporate a service learning philosophy and ensure that youth have a meaningful service experience. The MCSC is in full agreement and support of existing principles for good practice established in Wingspread Special Report: Principles of Good Practice for Combining Service and Learning, published by the Johnson Foundation. The Commission has required applicants for NCSA funds under all subtitles to design programs in accordance with these principles. In addition, Michigan has developed its own set of standards (see "The Michigan Principles for Service"). Institute a process to unify program data coUection and evaluation by establishing standards and objectives across all youth service program areas. The MCSC has drafted a set of evaluation requirements to be implemented accross all program areas. Collaborative training efforts have been taken to train grantees on standards �and procedures established by Abt Associates Inc. and The Center for Human Resources, Brandeis University. Establish an in-state K-12 service grant program administered by the Michigan State Department of Education in conjunction with the Commission, to support community service and service learning programs for K-12 age youth. Program design specifications will include stipend support for a teacher and/or community based coordinator, be intentkd to integrate service learning into specific content curriculum or meet community needs. Programs will also coordinate andcooperate with otheryouth service activities in the community (particularly those linked to the state plan) and the local Partnership for Education and the Michigan School Volunteer Program. The Michigan Serve-America Program received $623,217 in funding from the Commission on National and Community Service. In 1992, the Michigan State Department of Education and the MCSC received over 200 requests for funding of which 60 were awarded funding. Grants ranged from just under $2,000 to $30,000. A total of 173 applications have been received for 1993 ranging from $5,000 to$25,000. Final selection of awards has not yet been conducted. Ensure that the activities of the state commission are coordinated with the Michigan 2000 Excellence in Education Committee. For instance, because citizenship education is part ofthe national educational goals, the commission will encourage the Committee to adopt community service and service learning as an important component in the Michigan New American Schools model. MCSC is in the processes of bringing together parties to examine the positive impact of service learning on education reform. This committee will include members from the Michigan Campus Compact, Colleges of Education, Intermediate School Districts, Service Learning Coordinators and the MCSC. Support workforce preparation by promoting positive productive community problem solving roles for all youth across the state. Special attention will be given to direcdy linking school-age service programs with community colleges. Community colleges should be encouraged to inclutk service as a part of their technical skiUs development programs. The MCSC continues to bring together members from K-12 education, community service, youth corps, higher education to link programs and emphases to ensure cohesive drives toward service and service learning. MCC is establishing a K-16 service learning coalition to examine furthering this goal. �The l\1ichigan Vision Establish the Governor's Youth Environmental Education Corps, a residential rural summer youth corps program, which wiU be administered through the Job Training Partnership Act network. --See Application to CNCS, Subtitle C-- Facilitate the development of a Michigan Urban Youth Corps model from a combination ofphilanthropic and business funds. Initial discussions have begun in the City ofGrand Rapids and the state will continue to assist the development of this project. The state would also like to see the model replicated in one other Michigan community during the next four years. The steering committee has begun to finalize its basic focus. MCSC, through GVSU, has awarded a planning grant in the amount of$35,000 to develop a replicable youth corps model. In addition, the National Association of Service & Conservation Corps, through MCSC, has offered consultation and technical assistance to the steering committee. Establish Michigan CARES (Communities and Resources Engaged in Service) a program designed to encourage youth and adults to participate in implementing and evaluating service projects which respond to local community needs. This innovative model encourages and assists local community coUaborations in the development of community service action teams (CSAT), made up of part-time, fuU-time and senior corp members, and provides ongoing assistance to localities in the upkeep ofthese CSATs. Through this model to state seeks to strengthen existing and develop new community service initiatives aimed at youth. Michigan has been fortunate to have secured over $225,000 in 1993 funds from CNCS for a planning grant to further develop a community and national service model. MCSC has been able to retain a staff person to act as a Program Director for the CARES initiative. Implementation of a CARES programs should begin by September of 1994. Support the development of a statewide network of summer community-based and operatedyouth volunteer corps programs andfuU-time urban corps linked in each community to community-based organizations, K-12 education, and higher education. An all grantees meeting in the area of corps was held in Traverse City to update parties in the evaluation, continuation and documentation of corp projects. This was also an opportunity to update the grantees on the changes in the national service movement �Strides are being developed to network corps programs. A proposal has been submitted to the Kellogg Foundation for the creation of the Michigan Corps Coalition. This coalition will act as a unifying agent and information hub for all corps programs in Michigan. Designate and promote the Michigan Campus Compact as the higher edueation consortium responsible for coordinating a higher edueation service plan. Establish an in-state college service grant program administered by the MCC, under the coordination and final review of the state commission, to augment MCC'scu"ent venture grantprogram. These grants will give special consideration to higher education projects with partner with or impact K-12 schools. In addition, a Michigan Resource Service Center housed at the Michigan Campus Compact will be developed to facilitate leadership trainingfor higher education participants, to develop service learning resources and to disseminate materials from the collegiate jU!ld. The Michigan Campus Compact (MCC) continues in its role as the higher education consortium responsible for coordinating a comprehensive higher education service plan. MCC, through the Michigan Resource Services Center, remains committed to: providing support and resources to all Michigan institutions developing student community service projects; ensuring collaboration between groups working in the same area as well as transmitting learning and expertise accross areas; and collecting resources already in existence on service learning in a vast array of areas. The Michigan Generation Grants Program distributed $250,000 to19 programs in 1992 and hope to disburse $195,000 to 24 programs in 1993. The amount of the individual grants ranged from $10,000 to $45,000. �The following charts illustrate some of the critical data collected from the 1992-1994 National and Community Service Grantees of the Michigan Community Service Commission. Michigan secured over $1,390,000 dollars in federal funding for community service initiatives in the 1992-93 funding cycle and $1,500,000 for 1993-94 cycle. A total of 90 grants were awarded in the areas ofK-12 education, Higher Education, and Youth Service Corps in 1992-93 and 99 in 1993-94. In the 1992-93 funding cycle Michigan was funded in three of the subtitle areas and in five areas in 1993-94.

Funding: $58,895 Participants: 37 2. Grand Valley State University Grand Valley State University has received a planning grant to develop a full time corps in the Grand Rapids area. The Grand Rapids Youth Corps plans to be in effect during the summer of 1994 and will expand into the year long program in the fall of 1994. The community has organized a steering committee to provide a focus for the development of the corps. The steering committee has constructed a vision and strategic plan and have begun planning for the kick-off activities. Funding: $30,000 Participants: 25 �Youth \oice .\rth ities --Title E The MCSC and the MYPAC have been integral in promoting Youth Voice throughout the state of Michigan. The MCSC and the MYPAC submitted a grant for $27,500 to the Commission on National and Community Service under Title E-Youth Voice. The Commission and the MYPAC received the grant with the fund level at $25,000 and currently is in the implementation stage of administrating the money. MYPAC Meetings As a Standing Committee the MYPAC has the right and responsibility to introduce policies and programs to the full Commission, and to review all issues before action is taken by the MCSC. Moreover, two members of the MYPAC are also full voting members of the MCSC. The MYPAC is thrilled to setve as a model and provide technical assistance for developing statewide youth councils to California, Maryland, New Jersey, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. Because Michigan is a large state, convening the MYPACis cumbersome and expensive. We manage these issues by convening small groups of MYPAC members regionally and by involving them, locally, with MCSC grantees, volunteer centers, and other relevant initiatives. In order to effectively facilitate strong youth voice at the state level, we feel the MYPAC must meet at least quarterly. Youth Speakers Bureau There is an amazing untapped resource in Michigan: Youth as trainers, facilitators, keynote speakers, and workshop presenters. We see a need for identifying a strong pool of young people, training them, and marketing the idea of youth as resources for all youth oriented conferences, trainings, workshops, and seminars. Youth speakers and trainers would also be available to schools and community-based organizations for on-site training and speaking. Recognition Program The Michigan Youth Progressive Action Council (MYPAC) introduces a unique approach to recognizing outstanding youth volunteers and service programs. We have designed atshirt and a letter of congratulations from Michigan Governor John Engler and Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) Chairperson Michelle Engler. Based loosely on former Presidents Bush's Daily Points of Light, this recognition package will be presented to any outstanding young person or program which merits special recognition. To augment the highly structured and competitive annual Michigan Community Service Awards of the MCSC, the MYPAC recognition program has no application process and no deadlines. The idea is to simply recognize outstanding efforts on an on-going basis. We will use our networks in the K-12, Higher Education, Youth Corps, and Nonprofit communities to identify the people and programs in Michigan which really def'me the youth service movement in our state. Our YES Ambassador will be responsible for disseminating awards and keeping accurate records of recipients. �Program Visits There is a significant number of outstanding service-learning and community service programs in Michigan. We would love to see many of them replicated. However, ours is a large and diverse state. The MCSC sees a need to facilitate opportunities for young people interested in starting or improving service initiatives to see how truly outstanding programs work. The MCSC will identify outstanding programs and prepare them as hosts and trainers. We will publish a directory briefly describing these programs and the specific areas in which they are exemplary (e.g. recruitment, reflection, community support). We will then make small travel expense grants available to young people to visit these programs for a day to see how they work and to discuss replication with program designers, managers, and participants. Our YES Ambassador will provide follow-up training and technical assistance to all Program Visit participants. Youth Action Forums The Youth Action Forum idea was introduced to Michigan by our Points ofLight Foundation Youth Engaged in Service Ambassadors. To date, we have had successful forums in Detroit in 1992 & 1993 and one in Mount Pleasant, Michigan in May, 1993. The town of Alpena is currently planning a forum for September, 1993. The Detroit forums brought together 700 young people to discuss community service in the context of issues ranging from AIDS to teen parenting. The Detroit forums closed with a Youth Speak Out in which teams of participants presented recommendations to City Councilmembers, members of the Board of Education, the Chief of Police, and other community leaders. In addition, the Detroit forums each included a highly attended day of service and a community service fair where community organizations were able to recruit youth as volunteers. At the Mount Pleasant forum, in place of the Speak Out, the 150 participants conducted a Strategy Forum where they began designing a community coalition of young people and adult community leaders who have pledged to work together to address the issues of selfesteem, racism, and substance abuse. Both the Detroit and Mt. Pleasant Forums established mini-grant programs to make funds available to young people to address identified issues. The Youth Action Forum is not only a place for youth to discuss their ideas about pressing social issues, it is also a place for young people to fmd the support to empower them to take action. To facilitate effective forums, we will develop an RFP which specifies quality assurance including principles of best practice. Local communities will be invited to compete for funding. Our YES Ambassador will work in new sites to organize a local planning coalition and provide training on the Youth Action Forum process. �Youth \ oicc Adi\'itics --Title E Statewide Conference on Youth Service and Philanthropy A Cross-stream conference for young people on service-learning, community service, and youth as resources is scheduled for Spring, 1994. Michigan Youth Engaged in Service (YES) Ambassador Michigan has been honored as a Points ofLightFoundation Youth Engaged in Service (YES) Ambassador Host State since 1991. Our YES Ambassadors have been a critical part of nearly all youth voice activities facilitated by the MCSC. The Ambassadors have been invaluable in the daily work of the Commission. In addition, our Ambassadors conceived, developed, and continue to provide staff support to the Michigan Youth Progressive Action Council. Moreover, although the MYPAC will coordinate and manage the following initiatives, it is the YES Ambassador who will provide the necessary staff support to make them a reality. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

PROPOSAL 1. STRUCTURE A. The Michigan Community Service Commission (MCSC) has been in existence since October of 1991 when it was established via executive order by Governor John Engler. The 21 commission members represent a broad-based constituency dedicated to the concept of community service and the building of private/public coalitions to effectively meet local needs. The ethnically and geographically diverse members of the MCSC represent community-based organizations, colleges, K-12 schools, young people, labor groups, small businesses, corporations, and philanthropic institutions. Commissioners are appointed for renewable, staggered 3-year terms. On December 9, 1993, Governor John Engler, by Executive Order rescinded the original Executive Order that created the first State Commission and issued a new one to expand the Commissions voting membership from 21 to 25 and to conform to the specific requirements of the 1993 National and Community Service Trust Act. (see attached Executive Order) B. The Governor's appointments staff is working with the Executive Director of the Commission to fill the remaining vacancies as required in the National and Community Service Trust Act of 1993 (see State Commission/AAE Composition Approval Form). C. See forms included D. See forms included E. Balance with respect to race, ethnicity, age, gender, disability characteristics and political a.ff'iliation will be ensured through the Governor's appointment review process and the use of a political affiliation form. F. Since Michigan has had a functioning commission since 1991, the included timeline deals more with the development of the State plan. G. The MCSC will delegate the contract and grant administrations functions to the Bureau of Contract and Grants Management within the Michigan Jobs Commission. Fiscal management will be delegated to the Michigan Department of Labor. An outside contractor will be retained to evaluate the effectiveness and impact of the subgrants distributed through the MCSC. MCSC is currently housed within the Michigan Jobs Commission -- an entity designed to promote and establish positive opportunities for job growth in Michigan. 2. DUTIES Michigan Community Service Commission Page 1 �A. Michigan's Comprehensive Plan The MCSC will develop community service initiatives in Michigan by building on the basic principles that have driven its work thus far. These principles, collaboration, outreach, State support, and infrastructure building are at the heart of any action taken by the MCSC. The following are the mechanisms to be developed as well as those currently being used that make up Michigan's Comprehensive Plan. Community Forums Michigan has had a long history of service initiative building and collaboration. Part of MCSC's responsibility to the State of Michigan is to direct resources to aid communities in addressing the pressing needs they identify. MCSC believes in the power of the community. Communities are best able to identify, address and solve the problems in their own "back yards." MCSC believes it should provide the resources, training and technical assistance necessary to empower communities to help others. The MCSC, therefore, does not tell communities what is wrong and how to fix it MCSC's focus has been, and will be to convene community forums that: • • • • help communities either find existing needs assessments of their population or help them facilitate their own. collect general information on the State's needs as a whole. educate key community service leaders and participants on the National and Community Service Trust Act of 1993. inform communities on the possibilities of AmeriCorps projects. The community forums will be executed through of the use of satellite down-linking to over a dozen sites across Michigan (see map attached). Partnerships with community service networks throughout the state will be utilized to bring together potentially interested community members. These partnerships have formed to develop a steering committee. The responsibility of the committee is to aid in the "visioning" of a plan for Michigan to respond to the National and Community Service Trust Act of 1993 and to provide guidance for the community forums. The committee members represent diverse perspectives in community service including: 4H extension service, higher education, community action agencies, community foundations, local United Ways, and voluntary action centers. Collaboration Emphasis is placed on collaboration throughout the MCSC's work and in its relationships with its grantees. Grantees are encouraged to engage in outreach to other organizations that could help in meeting needs through community service initiatives. MCSC continually seeks the input of key players in Michigan's community service Michigan Community Service Commission Page2 �arena for resource sharing, idea generation, guidance and focus. MCSC has, in collaboration with other stakeholders, created a list of community service priorities for Michigan called the Michigan Vision (see attached). The Michigan Vision is the touchstone for MCSC and its decision making and was developed through the collaborative efforts of representatives from foundations, corporations, higher education institutions, and several community service organizations. MCSC has had a long history of collaboration and partnership building. When the MCSC was awarded a planning grant from the Commission on National and Community Service in the area of national and community service programs (subtitle D), a working group was formed to help direct the MCSC toward implementation of the Michigan CARES initiative. This group consists of members representing community foundations, higher education, non-profits, and the Michigan United Way, Department of Education, Office on Aging, ACI'ION, 4H Extension, Points of Light Foundation. Michigan's community service organizations have a strong shared commitment to incorporating Service Learning in community service initiatives. MCSC has played a key role in the strategic planning of a Service Learning infusion program. In cooperation with the Michigan Campus Compact, American Youth Foundation and the K-12 Service Learning Center, the MCSC has established the Michigan Principles for Service (see attached). MCSC will continue its focus on collaboration by requiring that grantees through the MCSC work with community agencies to secure additional funding, exchange information, and explore new possibilities for partnership building. Outreach Making sure that communities are "in the loop," MCSC utilizes several mechanisms to perform outreach. Updated mailings have been sent to keep "players" informed on the National and Community Service Trust Act of 1993. A ''Dear Colleague" letter was sent to the entire mailing list of the MCSC to inform the public on AmeriCorps and the federal legislation. Further solicitation was achieved by including a form asking for more names and addresses of interested parties. MCSC is fortunate enough to be one of the few states with a Point of Light Foundation Youth Engaged in Service (YES) Ambassador. Outreach to youth is the one task of the YES Ambassador. To that end, the Michigan Youth Progressive Action Council (MYPAC) has been established to engage youth in the service movement and solicit youth voice. MCSC facilitates and hosts an annual all grantees meeting as well as meetings by subtitle. These meetings provide opportunities to obtain feedback from the grantees and offers time to engage in reflective activities. Additionally, much of the training for Michigan Community Service Commission Page 3 �evaluation and granting procedures is performed at these meetings. State Support Besides being created by Governor John Engler, the State of Michigan has supported the MCSC with over $130,000 in general fund monies for each of the past two years. The MCSC has established a standing committee on fund development to secure state and private funding. MCSC has established an avenue to other arenas of collaboration an suppon by appointing the Executive Director as a private sector liaison. Legislation has been drafted with strong suppon from both houses. It will be introduced some time in early 1994. This legislation is constructed in such a way as to ensure that MCSC's structure and operation will be in compliance with the National and Community Service Trust Act of 1993. Infrastructure Building MCSC will further the strength of Michigan's service infrastructure by working closely with Michigan's philanthropic foundations (i.e. the Charles Stewan Mott Foundation and the W. K. Kellogg Foundation) Michigan has established a Council of Michigan Foundations to act as a coordinating body in the community foundation arena. MCSC will also work closely with the existing service infrastructure to utilize existing networks, communicate vital information, perform outreach, and offer suppon to needy communities and community-based organizations. Action All of these mechanisms will be utilized to enact Michigan's Comprehensive Plan. The timeline (included) will further explain the various elements Michigan will employ to create an overall vision for the three-year-life of the National and Community Service Trust Act of 1993. B. The pre-selection process for Subtitle C programs will be as follows: On February 23, 1994, the MCSC, in cooperation with the 4H Extension Service, will conduct a community forum utilizing satellite telecommunications. This will offer MCSC an opponunity for outreach and informal needs assessment This will also be an opportunity for technical assistance to the interested public. Data will be collected and recorded for analysis to determine Michigan's specific need(s). All areas of AmeriCorps funding will be represented at the State level at the forums (i.e. K-12 Education, Higher Education, State Commission, etc.) By March 1994, potential grantees will be required to submit a "pre-RFP" that gives a brief description of the proposal and that answers some general questions like: • Is there a collaborative partnership identified in your proposal? • Do you have a fiscal agent in your pannership? Michigan Community Service Commission Page4 �• What amount and type of funding have you secured outside of the funding • • • requested through AmeriCorps? How have you included youth voice? How will you incmporate Service Learning? What basic technical assistance structure will you develop for participants and host sites? The MCSC will review the proposals and select the programs that have adequately answered the questions above. Those programs selected will be required to take part in a mandatory technical assistance meeting where a fmal request for grant proposal will be offered and explained. At no point are those submitting proposals and accepted required to submit a final proposal should they find that the burden is too heavy or some unforeseen circumstances occur. MCSC will make every effort to explain the pre-RFP evaluation criteria to community forum participants as federal regulations become public. C. SeeB D. Administration of grants program will be as follows: The MCSC has been funded in five of the subtitles of the National Community Service Act of 1991 and has extensive experience in the administration of community service grants. The MCSC is housed within the Michigan Jobs Commission and utilizes the administrative personnel for contracting and grant-making. E. Evaluation and monitoring will be conducted by an outside contractor. The MCSC is currently engaging in the RFP process to contract an evaluator for the grants under the National and Community Service Act of 1991. It is the intention of the MCSC to utilize the same procedure for the funding the MCSC receives under the AmeriCorps rubric. F. Technical assistance will be provided as described in B. The MCSC will also hold its annual all grantees meetings and meetings by specific funding stream. In addition, the community forums in February will be a vehicle for technical assistance to communities. G. Program development cannot be fully explored without knowledge of the scope and number of grant proposals. Proposals will be required to include youth voice, Service Learning, training for sites and participants and accounting and timeline narratives. H. Recruitment and placement procedures will be more detailed after dissemination of federal regulations. It is the intention of the MCSC to use the Michigan CARES model to develop, recruit and place AmeriCorps sites and participants.

This paperwork includes an indication of the partnership that would be formed with the MSUE, Children, Youth and Family, 4-H Youth Programs and the Commission as wei! as an explanation and breakdown of costs related to the statewide satellite videoconference. Diana, when we discussed this project with our 4-H bookkeeper, she indicated we have an agreement with the university that makes it feasible for us to work with a purchase order system for payment versus going through the Michigan State University Office of Contra!:"'~ and Grants. This eliminates the overhead charge of the university and other delays that could occur. Once the Michigan Community Service Commission has agreed to the project, and the Michigan 4-H Yot..rth Programs receives a purchase order from you, the project can be up and running. 4-H YOUTH PROGRAMS Coopetlltive E:tlenslon Ssnica 3H Serkey H~d Mithu)an :lot :_ans1ng, 48824-1111 517/355-JJBD :~x· 5171355-6i48 !n addition, payment to Future Media for facility, crew and satellite costs would be billed to the Michigan Community Service Commission.

A recent statewide issues identification process identified a need for more emphasis and programming in the areas of children, youths and families. The mission of the Children, Youth and Family Programs (CYF) is to educate within communities to enhance the quality of life across the life cycle. The organization's values are learning, lifelong education, research-based quality programming and diversity. Michigan 4-H Youth Programs is interested in partnering with the Michigan Community Service Commission because both organizations share the goal of strengthening Michigan's children, youths and families. Community service activities conducted throughout the state become one vehicle to make that happen. The Extension CYF Program has a staff experienced in working collaboratively with public and private agencies, educating and facilitating in communities and in producing print and video-based learning tools. �. l.J ..L.. \) "i:' ;:J "'* .l. / •.)
