SHIRLEY S. SAGAWA
Shirley Sagawa is the managing director for strategic planning and the former executive
director of the Corporation for National Service. The Corporation, whose mission is
to engage Americans of all ages and backgrounds in service to their communities,
implements the AmeriCorps, Learn and Service America, and the National Senior
Service Corps programs.
Sagawa, one of the youngest women appointed by President Clinton to a senior-level
Senate-confirmed position, is well known in the service community for playing leading
roles in drafting national service legislation. As chief counsel for youth policy on the
Senate Labor and Human Resources Committee, she co-authored the National and
Community Service Act of 1990 (which created the Commission on National and
Community Service), and served as lead committee staff person on child care and Head
Start legislation.
Sagawa came to the Corporation from the White House where she was special assistant
to the President for domestic policy and policy advisor to the First Lady. There she
helped guide into law the National and Community Service Trust Act, which authorized
a large-scale national service program, AmeriCorps, which provides education
assistance to those who make a substantial commitment to service.
While employed as senior counsel to the National Women's Law Center, Sagawa was
appointed by President Bush to the Board of Directors of the Commission on National
and Community Service, where she was elected vice chair.
Sagawa is a graduate of Harvard Law School, where she was an editor of the Harvard
Law Review and co-president of the Women's Law Association. She has a master's
degree from the London School of Economics and a bachelor's degree from Smith
College.

HARRIS WOFFORD
Harris Wofford brings to the post of Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation for
National Service long dedication to the goal of making citizen service the common expectation
and common experience of all Americans. As a United States Senator from Pennsylvania (1991
to 1994), he played a key part in crafting the landmark legislation that created the Corporation,
and winning the necessary bi-partisan support to secure its passage.
Since helping to launch the Peace Corps in 1961, he has been in the forefront of the effort
to bring that idea home to America. In the 1970s, he formed and chaired the Committee to Study
the Idea of National Service, which in 1979 produced the landmark report Youth and the Needs
of the Nation. In 1987, as Pennsylvania Secretary of Labor and Industry, he established and led
Governor Robert Casey's Office of Citizen Service, known as PennServe, which promoted
school-based service and learning throughout the Commonwealth, managed the Pennsylvania
Conservation Corps, and encouraged the formation of a number of summer and year-round youth
service corps.
While in Governor Casey's cabinet, Mr. Wofford worked with Governor Clinton of
Arkansas on a National Governors Association Task Force on National Youth Service, and came
to Washington to assist the bi-partisan group of Senators who drafted the National and
Community Service Act of 1990, signed into law by President Bush. In 1991, as a newly-elected
Senator, Mr. Wofford joined Senator David Boren of Oklahoma in initiating and, with the help
of Senator Dole, securing bi-partisan support for a National Civilian Community Corps, signed
into law by President Bush in 1992. In 1993, Senator Wofford worked with President Clinton's
task force headed by Eli Segal in drafting the National and Community Service Trust Act, and
co-managed the bill during the floor debate.
Previously, Mr. Wofford served in three national administrations. From 1958 to 1959,
during the Eisenhower Administration, he was counsel to the Rev. Theodore Hesburgh of Notre
Dame on the first U.S. Commission on Civil Rights. From 1961 to 1962, he was Special
Assistant to President Kennedy and chaired the subcabinet group on civil rights. While on the
White House staff, he helped Sargent Shriver plan and organize the Peace Corps, and in 1962
became the Peace Corps' Special Representative to Africa and director of its large Ethiopia
program. In 1964, during the Johnson Administration, he became the Peace Corps' Associate
Director.
In academia, Mr. Wofford was an Associate Professor of Law at Notre Dame Law School
from 1959 to 1960, President of the new College at Old Westbury of the State University of New
York, 1966 to 1970, and from 1970 to 1978 President of Bryn Mawr College. During World
War II, Mr. Wofford served in the Army Air Force. In 1948 he earned a B.A. from the
University of Chicago, and in 1954 J.D.s from both Howard University and Yale Law Schools.
From 1954 to 1958 he was an associate at Covington and Burling law firm in Washington, DC,
and from 1979 to 1986 he was counsel to Schnader, Harrison, Segal and Lewis in Philadelphia.
He and his late wife Clare are co-authors of India Afire (1951). He is the author of Of Kennedys
& Kings: Making Sense of the Sixties (1980). They have three children and four grandchildren.

This message is from Harris Wofford:
It is with much sadness and much pleasure that I announce a major career
shift for our greatly valued and trusted colleague, Shirley Sagawa. As most
of you know, the Corporation's Board and I place great emphasis on strategic
and long-range planning. Shirley and I both agreed that for planning to be
done properly, someone would have to devote most, if not all, of his/her
attention to the process. Shirley suggested that we allow her to shift her
responsibilities from the day-to-day management that comes with being the
Corporation's Executive Director, to being the Managing Director for
Planning. So, while it is a great loss to lose Shirley as my right hand in
the management of the Corporation's programs, it is with delight that I
welcome her as our Managing Director for Planning. No one has contributed
more to the Corporation and to the field of national service, and there is no
one who can better help us plan for the future.
In approximately three weeks, Shirley will assume her new role, and
Terry Russell, the Corporation's General Counsel, will become the Acting
Executive Director. Terry will serve in that position until a permanent
Executive Director is nominated by the President and confirmed by the Senate.
The search for that nominee is beginning now. I appreciate Terry's
willingness to serve, and trust that he will bring to this position all of
the experience and good judgment he has shown as our General Counsel.
