FACT SHEET ON THE STATUS OF FUTURE
USDA-SPONSORED AMERICORPS PROJECTS
In both the 1994-1995 program year and the 1995-1996 program year, USDA sponsored community-
based AmeriCorps projects throughout the country that fought hunger, protected the environment, and
boosted rural community development. In both program years, the projects were supported by four
sources of funding:
1) Corporation for National Service (CNS) funding paid for educational awards for AmeriCorps
Members that successfully completed the program; none of these funds were ever transferred to
USDA they went into a trust fund that will eventually pay the lending and/or educational
institutions of AmeriCorps graduates.
2) CNS funds were granted from CNS to USDA, which USDA in turn, sub-granted to local
AmeriCorps projects, especially to five anti-hunger projects; the total amount of these funds were
minimal compared to the overall cost of the USDA program.
3) USDA utilized money from the Department's own appropriated funds; USDA used funds from a
variety of agencies to support AmeriCorps projects that provided critical community services in areas
related to the broad mission areas of those agencies.
4) State and local governments and private sector organizations provided matching funds; in the 1994-
1995 program year, non-Federal sources provided $1.7 million in funding to USDA-sponsored
AmeriCorps projects.
In a compromise brokered between CNS head Harris Wofford and Senator Charles Grassley (R-IA), a
leading critic of the program, CNS will no longer make grants of operating funds to Federal agencies.
This deal compromise codified by the appropriations language governing CNS. Some of those critics
who agreed to the compromise may have believed, incorrectly, that they eliminated CNS's legal ability
to allow USDA to continue to sponsor AmeriCorps projects. In fact, neither the compromise nor the
appropriations language restricted CNS' legal ability to continue to allow AmeriCorps Members
sponsored by USDA to receive educational awards.
The only legal result of the compromise is that it eliminated AmeriCorps funding source #2 ---
operating funds transferred from CNS to USDA. The few projects that were most dependent on
this source of funding the five anti-hunger projects banded together as a consortium under the
umbrella of the non-profit Congressional Hunger Center to successfully apply for funding directly
from CNS. However, the over 1,000 remaining USDA sponsored AmeriCorps positions focused on
environmental protection and rural development would be eliminated entirely if CNS could not
continue to sign a cooperative agreement with USDA in which the Department would continue to use
its own appropriated funds to support these projects. These projects --- many of which are the only
significant AmeriCorps presence in rural areas of their states --- would end if USDA's
involvement in AmeriCorps was terminated. Most state commissions on national service have
neither the available funds nor the technical expertise to continue these projects on their own.
Under the current appropriations language governing CNS, while CNS can no longer transfer operating
funds (source #2) to USDA, it may sign a cooperative agreement with the Department to allow USDA-
sponsored educational awards funded by source #1. Under this arrangement, USDA would still be able
to spend its own funds (source #3) and USDA AmeriCorps projects would still be able to obtain state,
local and private funds (source #4).
Thus, CNS still has the legal ability to sign an agreement with USDA to sponsor AmeriCorps projects
with funds provided by USDA and non-Federal sources. Under this condition, USDA-sponsored
AmeriCorps Members would still have the legal ability to receive educational awards from the CNS.
However, even though both agencies have the legal ability to ensure that USDA can continue to run an
AmeriCorps program, the Department and CNS are seeking to reach a bi-partisan policy consensus
with key leaders in Congress that USDA will do so. The Department wants to be sure that no critics of
AmeriCorps believe that either CNS or USDA have , in essence, "broken the deal" regarding Federal
agency programs.
Consequently, both USDA and CNS are seeking at least tacit approval from Senator Christopher
S. (Kit) Bond of Missouri, the Chairperson of the Senate VA/HUD appropriations sub-committee
that funds CNS, to support a compromise in which USDA would no longer receive operating
awards from CNS but in which USDA would still be able to spend its own already-appropriated
funds on AmeriCorps, and in which USDA-sponsored AmeriCorps Members would still be able
to receive educational awards funded by CNS.

CONGRESS CANCELS FOREST SERVICE AMERICORPS PROJECTS PLANNED
FOR 19 STATES
WASHINGTON, July XX, 1996--Congress has canceled the portion of the AmeriCorps
national service program planned for this fiscal year that would have engaged 683 participants in
USDA Forest Service projects in 19 states, Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman said today.
The program was canceled because Interior Appropriations Subcommittees in Congress
denied the U.S. Department of Agriculture's request to reprogram Fiscal Year 1996 Forest
Service funds for AmeriCorps. However, Glickman expressed his desire to work with Congress
to obtain bipartisan support to begin new, year-long USDA Forest Service AmeriCorps projects
nationally beginning this October using FY97 funds.
The Forest Service AmeriCorps projects would have engaged AmeriCorps members in
building and restoring trails, rehabilitating campground sites, fighting forest fires, making
recreation areas accessible for disabled persons, protecting habitats for endangered and
threatened species, improving timber stands, boosting rural development, providing
environmental education services to local schools, and preserving historic sites. AmeriCorps
members who successfully completed a full term of service would have received educational
awards worth $4,725 to pay for college, job training, graduate school, or to pay back existing
student loans.
"It is unfortunate that the people of the United States will not receive the beneficial
services that AmeriCorps members would have performed on national forests. It is also
unfortunate that potential participants in the program will not be able to aid their own post-
secondary educations," said Glickman, who oversees the USDA Forest Service. "Given that
Congress has recently taken bipartisan steps to work with the President to preserve the entire
AmeriCorps program, I hope we can reach bipartisan agreement to continue AmeriCorps projects
on national forests starting this fall."
USDA Forest Service AmeriCorps projects were planned this fiscal year for Arkansas,
Arizona, California, Colorado, Georgia, Idaho, Kentucky, Mississippi, New Hampshire, New
Mexico, North Carolina, Oregon, Tennessee, Washington, Utah, Vermont, Virginia, West
Virginia, and Wyoming.
AmeriCorps is the President's domestic national service program, authorized by the
National and Community Service Act of 1993, which allows Americans of all backgrounds to
perform community service in exchange for educational benefits. While most AmeriCorps
projects are not run by federal agencies, USDA manages a small portion of AmeriCorps focused
nationally on rural development, environmental protection, and anti-hunger work--most of which
were allowed by Congress to continue this year. All USDA AmeriCorps projects are designed to
"get things done" while strengthening communities, expanding educational opportunity. and
promoting personal responsibility.
Nationally, in the Forest Service's first operational program year (1994-1995),
AmeriCorps members nationally constructed, maintained, and improved 682 miles of trails,
achieved 2,569 acres of wildlife habitat enhancement, improved 668 acres of timber stands,
built or completely rehabilitated 446 campground sites, reforested 638 acres of land, prepared 42
campsites for accessibility to people with disabilities, improved 760 acres of fisheries habitat,
and provided conservation education to 8,373 public school students.
Also in the first year of the program, in rural development projects implemented
nationally by the USDA Forest Service, AmeriCorps members promoted alternative energy
sources and wood technologies, improved emergency response and prevention, helped home
owners relocate from a flood plain, and developed and implemented municipal recycling
initiatives.

CONGRESS CANCELS VERMONT AMERICORPS PROJECT ON GREEN
MOUNTAIN NATIONAL FOREST
WASHINGTON, July XX, 1996--Congress has canceled the portion of the AmeriCorps

CONGRESS CANCELS ARKANSAS AMERICORPS COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
PROJECTS PLANNED BY USDA FOREST SERVICE
WASHINGTON, July XX, 1996--Congress has canceled the portion of the AmeriCorps
national service program planned by the USDA Forest Service that would have implemented
community development projects in Arkansas, Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman said today.
The program was canceled because Interior Appropriations Subcommittees in Congress
denied the U.S. Department of Agriculture's request to reprogram Fiscal Year 1996 Forest
Service funds for AmeriCorps. However, Glickman expressed his desire to work with Congress
to obtain bipartisan support to begin a new, year-long USDA Forest Service AmeriCorps project
in Vermont beginning this October using FY97 funds.
The Arkansas program would have engaged three AmeriCorps members in performing
critical work in Holly Grove, North Little Rock, and Batesville, Arkansas that would have
promoted economic development, protected the environment, and reolcated families living in
flood plains. All the AmeriCorps members who successfully completed the program would have
received educational awards worth $4,725 to pay for college, job training, graduate school, or to

REVISED DRAFT EXAMPLE LETTER TO SENATORS, CONGRESSMEN
The Honorable James Jeffords
513 Hart Senate Office Building
Washington, DC 20515
Dear Senator Jeffords:
I regret to inform you that, because the Interior Appropriations Subcommittees in Congress have
denied the Department's request to reprogram Fiscal year (FY) 1996 Forest Service funds for
AmeriCorps, USDA has been forced to cancel the AmeriCorps program that was planned in
Vermont on the Green Mountain National Forest for this year.
However, I want to assure you that the Department will take every possible step to obtain bi-
partisan support to begin a new, year-long, Forest Service AmeriCorps program beginning this
October with funds from FY 1997.
This program in Vermont would have would have engaged 20 citizens most of whom would
have been from the state as AmeriCorps members performing critical work on the Forest
clearing and restoring trails, rehabilitating and cleaning campground sites, protecting wildlife,
improving timber stands, providing environmental education services to local school, improving
fisheries, and preserving historic sites. All the AmeriCorps Members who successfully
completed the program most of whom would have been from middle class families would
have received educational awards worth $4,725 to pay for college, job training, graduate school,
or to pay back existing student loans.
It is unfortunate that the people of Vermont will not be able to benefit from such service and that
possible participants will not be able to aid their own post-secondary educations.
Nationally, Forest Service AmeriCorps projects in the first year of the program (1994-1995
program year) achieved impressive results. In Public Lands teams serving directly in National
Forests, USDA AmeriCorps Members:
*
Constructed, maintained, and improved 682 miles of trail.
*
Achieved 2,569 acres of wildlife habitat improvement; built 133 structures to shelter or
protect wildlife; built 296 nesting boxes; and constructed a threatened and endangered
plant greenhouse.
*
Improved 668 acres of timber stand.
Built or completely rehabilitated 446 campground sites.
Reforested 638 acres of land.
*
Prepared 42 campsites for accessibility to people with disabilities.
Improved 760 acres of fisheries habitat.
Constructed 86 miles of new fence.
Maintained 18 miles of vehicle trails to keep them free of obstructive growth and slides.
*
Improved watersheds damaged by fire by cutting and planting 92,500 willows in riparian
areas.
Improved Forest Service road and safety conditions by "day lighting" 50 curves.
Released 775,000 salmon fry in a fish stocking operation.
Constructed a major visitor information center.
*
Provided conservation education to 8 8,3 73 students K- 12.
Also in the first year of the program (1994-1995 program year), AmeriCorps Members serving in
Rural Development teams in local communities:
*
Promoted alternative energy sources and wood technologies.
*
Improved emergency response and prevention.
Helped home owners relocate from a flood plain.
Provided environmental and conservation education to school children.
*
Helped design and construct timber bridges.
Developed and implemented municipal recycling initiatives.
Created plans for improving local recreational areas.
*
Helped implement historic, scenic, and tourism trails.
In order to start the second program year of Forest Service AmeriCorps projects, we took every
possible effort to obtain bi-partisan Congressional support. In both February and May, I wrote
letters to Senator Slade Gorton and Congressman Regula. the Senate and House chair people.
respectively, of the Appropriations Subcommittees on Interior. Unit rtunately, both requests
were denied.
However, I am encouraged that recent votes in both the House and the Senate have demonstrated
growing bi-partisan support for the overall AmeriCorps program. I believe that the portion of
AmeriCorps managed by the Forest Service was responsible for some of the highest quality
projects in the entire AmeriCorps program.
Therefore, we expect to soon submit an AmeriCorps reprogramming letter for FY 1997, for
which we are extremely hopeful that we will receive bi-partisan support from the Interior
appropriations sub-committees in both Houses.
I hope I can have your support in requesting the Interior Appropriations Subcommittees to
support our upcoming reprogramming request. If you have any questions on this matter, please
contact me or Joel Berg, Director of National Service for USDA, at (202) 720-5746. Thank you
for your attention.
Sincerely,
Dan Glickman

USDA AmeriCorps Projects in Missouri
In Missouri, USDA sponsored 11 full-time Members last year, is sponsoring 5 full-
time Members this year, and will be sponsoring 5 additional Members this summer in a
special project focused on transferring excess food to hungry people.
Last Year (1984-1985) Program Year
Eleven AmeriCorps Members aided flood recovery work on 53,000 acres of land;
provided conservation education to 1,770 students; helped maintain 27 flood-retarding
dams; assisted 95 landowners in assessing herbicide runoff into the water supply; worked
with 11 farmers to develop water management plans; completed flood prevention work on
3,600 acres of land; and restored 995 acres of wetlands.
This Year (1985-1986) Program Year
As of the second quarter ending June 30, the five AmeriCorps Members had performed
"Farm-a-Syst" water quality evaluations for 147 farm families, 65% of whom adopted all
or some of the water quality protection measures recommended by the AmeriCorps
Members; this project has been aided significantly by the support of local Farm Bureau
offices. The AmeriCorps Members also provided conservation education to 1,747
students and 622 adults, of whom 99% and 97%, respectively, later demonstrated
improved knowledge of conservation issues.
This Summer and Fall ("Summer of Gleaning" Initiative)
As part of Secretary Glickman's personal initiative to increase the nation's commitment
to recovering excess food for distribution to hungry citizens, AmeriCorps Members will
serve this summer and fall in a food recovery project in the Kansas City area.

Dear Mr. Berg:
I would like to thank you for the opportunity to allow Kansas, and specifically the Kansas
Department of Wildlife and Parks, to be associated with the USDA Americorps program. Those
crews who served for the Natural Resources Conservation Service on flood-related projects at
our reservoirs have ben particularly beneficial. These crews have completed many projects with
tremendous long-term resource and economic benefits. Kansas' natural resources, our state
parks, our wildlife areas, and our citizens will derive many benefits for years to come from the
service provided by these individuals.
While these individuals have accomplished much, there is much more that must be accomplished.
If possible, we would like you to consider renewing commitments to allow these existing crews
to continue their efforts next fiscal year. Due to restructuring within the Department, which was
effective March 10, 1996, Americorps coordination for the Department has been reassigned from
Mr. Robert Barbee to Region 4 Parks Supervisor Alan Stark (Great Plains Nature Center, 6232
E. 29th St. N., Wichita, KS 67220 316-683-8069). You should be receiving documents soon
from Mr. Stark concerning the support these crews will have. Should any additional crews be
available, the Kansas Department of Wildlife and Parks would be greatly interested in discussing
future possibilities with you.
Thank you for your consideration of this request and again for the opportunity to be associated
with this fine program. I hope it was as beneficial for the members who served as it was for
Kansas.
Sincerely,
Real Rob Manes

Dear Mr. Chick:
Thank you for your assistance in sending the Americorps/Team USDA to
participate in the cleanup effort in Beatrice and the Homestead National
Monument of America. Please convey my appreciation directly to the Americorps
volunteers.
As you know, I visited Beatrice the weekend after the tornado struck and
surveyed the extensive damage and the large amount of debris created by the
storm. The participation of the volunteers from Americorps certainly made the
difference in the cleanup process. The Americorps/Team USDA are to be
commended for their work to remove debris from the Homestead National Monument
and from Pioneer Acres. Their flexibility and quick response to the
overwhelming need in Beatrice is an example of the good that Americorps was
created to do.
Thank you again for your assistance in this matter.
Best wishes,

TALKING POINTS ON THE USDA AMERICORPS PROGRAM
* USDA is sponsoring approximately 1,000 AmeriCorps Members who are serving in
over 45 different states in projects fighting hunger, improving the environment, and
re-building rural communities. The USDA portion of AmeriCorps is a relatively small,
yet important, portion of the larger overall program; the overall program now enrolls
approximately 23,000 AmeriCorps members serving in every state of the nation. The
USDA portion of the program is highly unusual because the vast majority of
AmeriCorps projects are not funded or managed by Federal agencies --- most are
funded through state commissions appointed by each state's governor and are
managed by non-profit organizations and local government organizations. USDA
AmeriCorps projects do NOT duplicate the functions of AmeriCorps projects funded
by state commissions; rather, USDA AmeriCorps fill unique needs that can not
generally be filled by state commission-funded projects.
* USDA AmeriCorps Members are reducing government bureaucracy by performing
community service that rapidly and directly aids citizens. USDA AmeriCorps Members
are not Federal employees and are not performing functions generally performed by
Federal employees. However, they are performing work far more cost-effectively than
would be provided through normal government methods.
* USDA AmeriCorps projects are "getting things done" providing vital and mainstream
service to rural, suburban, and urban communities throughout America. For instance,
USDA projects are building trails and fighting fire on National Forests, improving city
parks, aiding rural fire departments, creating urban gardens, bringing running water to
low-income rural families, and teaching children how to improve their nutrition.
* USDA AmeriCorps projects provide taxpayers with double the "bang for the buck."
USDA is simply utilizing funds already appropriated to the Department. For instance,
USDA Forest Service projects use some funding from existing trail repair budgets. Not
only do the AmeriCorps Members repair more trails than would be repaired by other
means, they also bring communities together, promote personal responsibly, and help
the earn their own way through college all for the same tax dollars that normally
would fund just the trail repair.
* USDA AmeriCorps projects are strengthening communities. Usually working in
partnership with community-based organizations, USDA AmeriCorps Members are
meeting the most pressing needs in each of hundreds of locales in which they are
operating. The service projects are not designed or implemented as a "cookie cutter"
approach dictated from Washington all the projects are locally-proposed and locally-
administered. Consequently, virtually all of the USDA AmeriCorps projects have
received broad-based bi-partisan support from local community leaders.
* Most USDA AmeriCorps projects are in rural and suburban areas that often receive
less aid from the Federal government. These areas also often lack significant non-
profit sector support networks. USDA has a field structure that is uniquely suited to
run programs in traditionally under-served areas. USDA AmeriCorps projects are
particularly important in North and South Dakota, which currently do not have state
national service commissions.
* The USDA program enables AmeriCorps Members to perform tasks requiring
technical expertise far beyond the capabilities of the vast majority of non-profit
organizations. For instance, under direct and sustained supervision from experts in the
field, USDA AmeriCorps Members are inspecting flood-damaged dams, implementing
strategic plans to create local jobs, designing and implementing entire recycling
programs for counties, helping farmers diversify their crops, bolstering Empowerment
Zones and Enterprise communities, designing and building timber bridges, and
decreasing ground water pollution. If AmeriCorps Members are to "get things done"
that require more than simple physical labor and that result in long-lasting
improvements in communities, then Members need the kind of advanced technical
training and supervision that can be provided by entities such as USDA.
* The USDA AmeriCorps program forges common bonds of unity among all
Americans. By bringing together Americans of all races, classes, genders, religions,
and physical abilities to work side-by-side, AmeriCorps strengthens the cords that bind
us together as a people. The "sweat equity" created by AmeriCorps is playing a role
in healing the nation's wounds and bridging our divisions. AmeriCorps is changing the
country because it creates a new civic compact in which any citizen can be tied to the
nation by the simple virtue of making a difference in the lives of others.
* The USDA AmeriCorps program expands educational and economic opportunity.
Participants in the program receive a small living stipend and an educational award
worth $4,725 that can be used to pay for college, graduate school, job training, or to
pay back existing student loans. There is NO economic needs test to participate in this
program -- the only requirement to participate is a desire to serve the country. Thus,
this program greatly boosts students from the middle class, who were previously told
that their families "make too much money" to qualify for most existing Federal aid
programs. Yet the program also helps low income families for whom aid programs are
clearly insufficient.
* The USDA AmeriCorps program promotes personal responsibility. All AmeriCorps
projects require extremely hard work in exchange for educational benefits, while
helping AmeriCorps Members build a life-long commitment to community service.
AmeriCorps gives all Americans a new way of giving something back to the country.
It reminds us that, along with rights we enjoy as citizens, we all have certain
obligations to protect those rights and to aid our own communities. Furthermore,
AmeriCorps gives young people a tangible way to take charge of their own lives.
USDA AMERICORPS SUMMER OF GLEANING
* In partnership with literally dozens of locally based anti-hunger groups, youth service
corps, food pantries, and food recovery organizations, USDA is sponsoring special
"Summer of Gleaning" AmeriCorps projects in 20 states. This special summer
initiative is a small, but important, part of both the USDA AmeriCorps program and the
overall AmeriCorps program.
* The "Summer of Gleaning" projects promote the general idea of food recovery, a top
personal priority of Secretary Glickman. These projects are designed to work with
farmers, agribusinesses, food distribution organizations, institutions, and restaurants
to recover and glean food that would be otherwise thrown away and to distribute that
food to hungry people.
* The "Summer of Gleaning" projects are based on the so-called "volunteer generator"
model in which a handful of AmeriCorps Members recruit numerous non-compensated
volunteers to help implement the project.
* The "Summer of Gleaning Projects last twelve weeks, during which the AmeriCorps
Members receive small living stipends. All AmeriCorps Members who successfully
complete this special summer program will receive a $1,000 educational award that
can be used to pay for college, job training, graduate school, or to pay back existing
student loans.
*
The "Summer of Gleaning" is NOT based on the traditional liberal premise that a
heavy-handed, bureaucratically driven, large government program based in Washington
has all answers to the nations' problems. Conversely, the "Summer of Gleaning" is
NOT based on the traditional conservative premise that the free-market, volunteers,
and non-profit organizations alone --- without any government help at all --- can solve
all the nation's social problems. Rather, the "Summer of Gleaning" is based on the
reinventing government philosophy of President Clinton, Vice-President Gore, and
Secretary Glickman which believes that government must provide energy, vision, and
some limited Federal funds as a catalyst to empower local communities to help solve
their own problems.

USDA AMERICORPS MEMBERS SALVAGE 60 TONS OF FOOD AT SUMMER OLYMPICS
WASHINGTON, Aug. 2, 1996--For the U.S. Department of Agriculture's
AmeriCorps members, the Summer Olympics in Atlanta are particularly special:
They are salvaging food from the various vendors and events and assisting in
distributing it to those in need.
To date, the AmeriCorps members, who are working in partnership with
the Atlanta Community Food Bank, have rescued more than 60 tons of
perishable food. The food bank estimates the salvaged food is enough to
provide some 80,000 meals.
"The international games have provided our AmeriCorps members with a
unique opportunity in the battle to alleviate hunger in the host city," said
Agriculture Secretary Dan Glickman. "For the first time in history, we are
recovering food at the Olympics. The Atlanta Committee for the Olympic
Games is to be commended for their cooperation in this effort. I hope that
this work is precedent-setting and that it will become standard practice at
all sorts of special events nationwide."
"This AmeriCorps project is part of a national initiative by USDA to
coordinate and promote public and private gleaning and food recovery
efforts," Glickman said. "Every year millions of pounds of nutritious,
uneaten food is thrown away. It is my highest personal priority to find
ways to get this food to the hungry - - before it finds its way to the
dumpster."
As the games are coming to a close each evening, the AmeriCorps
members start their nightly service, according to Amy Hudson, community
relations manager for the Atlanta Community Food Bank. "They have been
invaluable, working all night to rescue food from events in Atlanta and
delivering it to the food bank," she said.
Three of the AmeriCorps members are part of the Department's special
12-week Summer of Gleaning Program currently underway in 20 states. They are
Casey Long and Gabe Weinberg of Atlanta, and Paul Soares of the Washington,
D.C. Anti-Hunger Team, a USDA-sponsored AmeriCorps project in collaboration
with the Congressional Hunger Center. Long and Weinberg are sponsored by
USDA's Rural Development mission area.
Other AmeriCorps members from the Hunger Center assisting in the
Olympic gleaning project are: Alex Dishun, Julia Dennehy, Sofia Ginzburg,
and Aileen Cham.

AmeriCorps members participating in this summer' S USDA gleaning
projects across the country are recovering fresh fruits and vegetables left
in the fields after harvesting, and salvaging perishable foods from
commercial establishments.
AmeriCorps, President Clinton's national service program passed with
bipartisan support by Congress, engages 25,000 Americans of diverse
backgrounds in performing service that meets critical community needs in
return for an award which may be used for college, job training, or to pay
back student loans. The majority of AmeriCorps members are working in
partnerships with states, local governments, and non-profit organizations.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture is running three types of
AmeriCorps teams in 45 states, composed of approximately 1,000 members: an
anti-hunger team, a public lands and environment team, and a rural
development team. Many of the AmeriCorps projects are sponsored by
community-based organizations and all projects are designed to "get things
done," while boosting community, opportunity, and responsibility.
