FOIA Number: 2013-0661-F (3) FOIA MARKER This is not a textual record. This is used as an administrative marker by the William J. Clinton Presidential Library Staff. Collection/Record Group: Clinton Presidential Records Subgroup/Office of Origin: Americorps Series/Staff Member: General Files Subseries: OA/ID Number: 24240 FolderID: Folder Title: USDA/AmeriCorps - Clinton Library Copies - FY96 Progress Reports - 1st and 2nd Quarters [2] Stack: Row: Section: Shelf: Position: S 66 1 2 1 Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 18 APPENDIX III III. "Summary of All Work Performed by All Sites Within a Particular Quantity Unit of Measure" is a 29 page report groups all the work done at all USDA AmeriCorps sites grouped by the same Quantity Unit of Measure. Where the second appendix groups by the program code, this report groups all units of measure. For example all "acres - cleaned" are grouped together regardless of the program (objective) code under which the work was done. The program (objective) code and objective statement listed in the report is merely the last one of the list from which the units of measure were grouped. This report is most useful in determining how many acres or people were served or affected by the USDA AmeriCorps program.

Aggregate Members and Service Hours (Sum the answers to question 9 from all Operating Site Reports) [Enter data into table] Number of Members Granted: 1,350 Members Enrolled In this Period: 923 (None of the Forest Service sponsored projects have begun service yet due to the lack of an Interior Appropriations Bill.) Member hours of service this period: 330,613 Grantee#: 94ADDFDC042 10. a) Please provide estimates of the following information: In this reporting Since Volunteer Generation period beginning of program year 9,887 15,987 How many non-AmeriCorps Member volunteers were involved in AmeriCorps service activities? 69,692 120,981 How many hours did non-AmeriCorps Members contribute to AmeriCorps service activities during the reporting period? 10. b) Share with us some examples of the service activities that your non-AmeriCorps Member volunteers participated in during this reporting period. *Members in Cordele, Georgia recruited volunteers to work on youth rallies throughout middle and high schools. The rallies focused on issues such as teen pregnancy prevention, dropout prevention, improving reading skills, and behavior problems. 2,924 students attended the rallies. In Cairo, Illinois 50 children have been recruited for volunteer community projects. Thirty youth have planned or participated in 3 community projects: tutoring for approximately 35-40 grade school children and planting more than 60 trees in Box Field and St. Mary's Parks which are used by the entire community. Youth have also cleaned up Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue with the NAACP and cleaned other streets within the community. Approximately 40 men and women in the community who are not AmeriCorps members have assisted. Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 3 In Texas over 2,000 trees were planted by volunteers and AmeriCorps Members. The trees were planted as a stopover spot for neotropical bird migration. * In Virginia members worked with the Grassroots Conservancy and other local volunteers to successfully build a timber bridge on the Marion Riverwalk. The bridge which is five feet wide and 47 feet long provides pedestrian passage for the Riverwalk. This effort brought together many members of the community to prepare the site and build the bridge to improve use of the Riverwalk for relaxation and recreation. In addition to building the bridge, the local high school is working on a Riverwalk coloring book for educational purposes to be used in grades K-5 SO the students can understand and learn about the Riverwalk. * On March 29 and 30, volunteers from throughout Bowling green came together to help clean up the West side neighborhood. * Over 800 linear feet of streambank was rehabilitated near Cumberland, MD, after flood damage had seriously eroded streambanks. Bioengineering plant materials were utilized in a demonstration/volunteer activity to aid the local community. Eleven Maryland USDA AmeriCorps Members, three NCCC members, and at least 12 community volunteers participated. 11. To the best of your knowledge, are the Members' and Non-AmeriCorps Member volunteers' numbers and service hours reported in the operating site progress reports accurate? X Yes No (If you have checked No, please explain in question 17, "Primary Challenges.") 12. To the best of your knowledge, do the Members' service hours reported in the operating site progress reports reflect adequate progress toward completion of required service hours? X Yes No (If you have checked No, please explain in question 17, "Primary Challenges.") Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 4 13. Summary of Progress this Reporting Period Toward Accomplishing Annual Objectives: In light of your monitoring activities and the progress of your operating sites, note any sites experiencing exceptional progress toward achieving their annual objectives. Highlight sites that appear to be making insufficient progress or that may not be taking sufficient steps to monitor their progress. Also highlight sites that appear to be exceeding their annual goals or that have made unusually extensive efforts to monitor their progress. If sites have reported numerical data that can be aggregated, do so in your narrative. 13. a) Community service objectives: (See three attached appendices. The first, "Community Service Program Code List"is a list of the objectives that are being worked on by one or more USDA AmeriCorps sites. The second, "Summary of All Work Performed by All Sites in a Particular Program (Objective) Code" is a report that summarizes all the work done by all USDA AmeriCorps sites related to a particular program (objective) code. The third, "Summary of All Work Performed by All Sites Within a Particular Quantity Unit of Measure" is a report that groups all the work done at all USDA AmeriCorps sites by the same Quantity Unit of Measure. These supplements provide a summary of the community service objectives for all our sites, followed by aggregate of how much of that objective was achieved in the second quarter at all our sites.) To summarize the supplement, in just the SECOND quarter of service, USDA AmeriCorps members: Environmental Constructed 207 outdoor classrooms Developed 301,000 seedlings 189 miles of stream clean-up Planted 2,800 trees Pumped out animal waste from 20 lagoons Renovated 30 windbreaks Constructed 45 miles of trails Conducted 2,618 assessments of farm safety and water quality Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 5 Conducted 340 groundwater resource assessments Established water quality monitoring on 750 acres Restored 8,932 acres of wetlands Closed 331 abandoned wells Constructed 540 wildlife habitat areas Conducted 300 water use audits Graffiti cleaned from 50 properties Provided general maintenance on 449 acres at the Arboretum Recycled 2,000,000 pounds of wood waste Repaired 21 restrooms in public parks Provided conservation education to 29,395 adults Provided 1,629 students with one-on-one environmental tutoring Built or repaired 80 public picnic tables Tested 118 wells Removed 100 old signs at public parks Planted 14 acres with grass Cleared 60 acres of flood debris Restored 31 miles of riparian habitat Improved 24 dilapidated buildings Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 6 Anti-Hunger Trained 110 organizations in disaster preparedness Served 1,150 meals to homeless people Provided 500 "Meals on Wheels" to shut-in citizens Prepared 1,500 meals for shut-in and homeless people Provided nutrition education 3,200 students Provided nutrition outreach to 500 homeless people Provided nutrition education to 750 post partem women Provided school breakfast outreach to 1,000 people Improved 37 food shelves Improved 5 existing school breakfast sites Handled 40,000 pounds of food at soup kitchens Gleaned 500 meals from local restaurants Recruited 120 volunteers for youth anti-hunger clubs Rural Development Restored 10 acres of deteriorated cemetery Helped 13 counties implement 911 emergency response systems Counseled 143 people on how to become self sufficient Relocated 31 families out of the floodplain Trained 1,001 farmers in agricultural diversification Helped 1,513 families obtain health and safety repairs of their homes Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 7 Installed 4,836 dry fire hydrants to reduce fire risks Identified 1,700 water sources for fire protection Helped 2,920 people obtain running water for the first time Improved indoor plumbing and/or septic systems for 820 people Created recreation programs for 1,300 people Provided outreach to 1,100 people on the Energy Assistance Program 13. b) Specific Community Service Objectives Examples: The Environment "Approximately 5000 plants have been planted on lifts along Bayou Larourche. The general public is steadily approaching members with overall positive comments on the project. As new lift is dredged and placed, we will continue to plant the bayou sides. The expected result will be to stabilize the embankment." - Louisiana Coastal Wetlands Environmental Corps Team "I am writing to express my sincere thanks for the recent visit by AmeriCorps personnel Sandra Smith and Susan Mattox. They provided to myself and my husband information about how to protect our well water, and pointed out potential problems that could affect the quality of water we drink. Their professionalism, knowledge, and patience explaining the literature was commendable." - Linda K. Cummings, Columbia, LA A local farmer had a positive test for the chemical atrazine in his drinking water five years ago. The farmer could not afford further tests, but was very concerned for the welfare of his family. AmeriCorps member Denise Perry worked with water testing agencies to provide this farmer with free water tests. - Maine Our AmeriCorps team is working with the Committee Chairman for Warren County Highland Trail Commission, Len Frank. Under his guidance, we have been clearing and blazing sections of the Highland Trail in Warren County. The New Jersey Department of Parks and Forestry (Deer Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 8 Park area) is also contributing to the development of this trail. People from several surrounding communities will be able to enjoy the trail's historical and scenic resources. - New Jersey The South Carolina Rural Development AmeriCorps Project's Greenwood Team braved cold temperatures during February 1996 to aid Schofield Middle School in Aiken, South Carolina in developing an outdoor learning center. The Team displayed excellent innovation and skill in constructing a floating dock across a pond that will serve to demonstrate wetland habitat for the growing number of students who will use the facility. Anti-Hunger One crew serves meals on Tuesdays to homeless people at a local park. Since the free meals draw at least 20-30 people every week, other organizations show up at the park to offer their services to those in need. In addition to getting a meal, the homeless can also find out about free health care, shelter, or other services. One man who got a lunch also took advantage of a service that would help him find someplace to live. He showed up a few weeks later, proudly displaying the key to his first apartment. That day, he asked for a couple of extra sandwiches, to put in his refrigerator at home. - Milwaukee Anti-Hunger Team Nine breakfast presentations have been made to 4,164 children at three Los Angeles area elementary schools and one drug rehabilitation center; nutrition education presentations to 867 low income and homeless people; 2,000 people served at the Downtown LA Mission. Elizabeth Riley, Executive Director Interfaith Hunger Coalition/USDA AmeriCorps Anti-Hunger Project, Los Angeles Rural Development In West Virginia 94 families have been put under contract and are now being assisted with their rent. Those families are now in Housing Quality Standard Homes. Hydroponic Vegetable Production Workshop exceeded all expectations, with participation of 115 people. People had to be turned away due to lack of space. Tennessee Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 9 13. c) Community Building/Strengthening Objectives: In Illinois, AmeriCorps members with the help of several community residents built structures on a lot for a mini park, such as, teeter-totter, benches, and monkey bars. "AmeriCorps members have organized two local beautification committees, one recreation committee, one centennial cleanup committee, and several specific event teams. We are excited to see "old timers" and "newcomers" working together to improve their communities. Among the groups we have recruited to become involved in AmeriCorps projects are 4-H clubs, Boy Scouts, National Honor Students, Sterling Scholar Students, and a local Arts Council. - Utah, NRCS L.P. Miles Elementary School lies within a predominantly low-income, minority community. This school has requested assistance with a nature trail and environmental education curriculum. Our AmeriCorps team has organized two workdays to bring together local communities, school children and employees, and parents. These people wouldn't/t normally have come out on a Saturday to work together. The AmeriCorps members are hoping this will lead to a long term relationship and empowerment. - Atlanta, Georgia 13. d) AmeriCorps Member Development Objectives: "Before AmeriCorps, Jose Marquez had only heard of Martha's Table, a soup kitchen in northwest Washington, D.C; however, since he has been an AmeriCorps member, he has decided to dedicate either a Saturday or a Sunday to working in the soup kitchen. He especially likes to give food and talk to the homeless in Washington, D.C. As a result of being an AmeriCorps Member, Jose has developed an ethic of service." - Josh Yates, Project Director Congressional Hunger Center/USDA AmeriCorps Anti-Hunger Project, D.C. Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 10 "AmeriCorps has allowed me to use my first educational award toward loans and I look forward to using my second towards grad school.

Unique successes or "great stories": (Highlight any unique anecdotes from your operating sites' progress reports that clearly communicate how AmeriCorps gets things done.) Goldendale Sentinel, 2/15/96 We would like to thank the many wonderful young people who labored to save our dwellings at the Llama Ranch. They sandbagged and waded through high waters to help alleviate threatening situations. The Sheriff's Office and the fantastic Explorer Scout crew and the AmeriCorps volunteers all came to our aid at a critical time. We had some very anxious moments as raging waters roared about us on three sides and as the river crested up to our dwellings on Thursday. All of these young people and their leaders were soaked to the skin for hours at a time and never complained. They were encouraging, enthusiastic, hardworking and a joyous blessing we will never forget! With loving gratitude, Jan Smith, Alice Helsman, and Fred Helsman, Goldendale, Washington 15. Strengthening the AmeriCorps National Service Network: (Highlight Operating Site activities from this reporting period that strengthened the AmeriCorps network of programs.) Maine held a statewide training involving five programs and VISTA during February. The USDA AmeriCorps Team in South Carolina participated in a state wide training conducted by the South Carolina Commission of National and Community Service. This training covered CPR, leadership skills, how to deal with difficult people, and conflict management. Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 11 16. Changes in Program Organization of Key Staff Positions during this Reporting Period: (Note any operating sites that have experienced changes in organization, staff or number of Members that could impair the sites' capacity to perform or that could significantly increase their potential for success.) There were no significant organizational changes this reporting period. 17. Primary Challenges Encountered this Reporting Period: (Report on operating site problems resolved and unresolved, obstacles to achieving program objectives, significant sources of delay, program elements not meeting expectations, and events or incidents that caused concern.) Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 12 PART II - REPORT ON PARENT ORGANIZATION ACTIVITIES 18. Primary Accomplishments this Reporting Period: In detail, describe activities initiated by the national office. Include important accomplishments and goals attained this reporting period. USDA continues to send frequent newsletters to all Members in the program and holds frequent conference calls to brings sites across the country together electronically. USDA has implemented a database for explicitly tracking the exact progress at each operating site towards accomplishing the community service objectives. This program is being used as a management tool to analyze objective accomplishments and identify potential problems. We are currently running three databases: members, sites, and objectives. The linkages between these databases serves as a means of checks and balances to ensure that everything is as it should be. We believe that this system serves as a model for tracking and managing AmeriCorps Programs. 19. Program Monitoring Activities this Reporting Period: Summarize your efforts as a grantee to develop and maintain relationships with and between your sites, to assess their needs, to provide them with appropriate assistance, to monitor their progress toward program objectives, and to conduct program evaluation. Note problems you have encountered in any of these areas and steps you have taken to address those problems. The Department's national AmeriCorps leadership continues to engage in a comprehensive effort to monitor and evaluate each USDA project. This effort includes frequent personal visits to sites, frequent consultation with state commissions of national and community service, as well as an intensive review of: quarterly reports prepared by every project, studies prepared by outside evaluators, unsolicited letters of support, and print and electronic media coverage. 20. a) Training and Technical Assistance Activities this Reporting Period: Summarize technical assistance activities you sponsored this reporting period in support of your sites, including Members and staff. If known, note the results of those activities. Indicate any steps you plan to take to provide follow-up assistance. The USDA Rural Development Agency conducted an extensive national training for all its project managers and AmeriCorps Members held in Jackson, Mississippi. Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 13 20. b) Training and Technical Assistance needs/trends for this Reporting Period: Please describe the overall T/TA needs among your programs and operating sites: especially significant needs that have emerged; any general trends you have observed in needs; strengths and weaknesses observed in delivery of T/TA; what you think the most important T/TA needs will be in the upcoming reporting period. Several of our states have utilized CNS diversity training contractors and have reported that the assistance has been extremely helpful. 20. c) Review the Training and Technical Assistance Requests Made by Your Operating Sites: Carefully review all operating site T/TA checklists included in the operating site progress reports. Each reporting period T/TA checklists will pass from operating sites to the National Direct Parent Organizations, through the AmeriCorps' National Program officers, to the CNS Training and Technical Assistance office. The National Direct Parent Organization is responsible for reviewing each operating site checklist, and either supplying the T/TA or recommending other action to CNS. Below, please describe for each program which checked items will be handled by the Parent Organization and for which items you would like the Corporation's assistance. Virtually all projects have utilized USDA training staff, facilities, and processes, so requests for additional, external, training has been minimal. 21. Building and Strengthening Private Sector Partnerships: Describe efforts you have made this reporting period to support your sites by building or strengthening private sector partnerships with corporations, foundations, individuals, local businesses, or United Way. Support can be cash or in-kind resources. While Federal law significantly limits how USDA AmeriCorps project managers may raise private funds, the program has been incredibly effective in creating partnerships with non-profit organizations. Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 14 Below are some sample partner organizations: Abilities - Hacketstown, New Jersey American Red Cross --- Kansas Helping Hands Society --- Topeka, Kansas National Trust for Historic Preservation, Drayton Hall --- Charleston, SC Optimist --- Havana, Illinois Ronald McDonald House --- Topeka, Kansas Salvation Army Kansas Sternberg Museum --- Hays, Kansas 22. Primary Challenges Encountered this Reporting Period: Report on problems resolved and unresolved at the Parent Organization level, including difficulties in monitoring, guiding and assisting sites, and any other unanticipated needs. Because of the delay in passing the Interior Appropriations Bill, the Forest Service portion of the program has been unable to begin operation. Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 15 APPENDICES I. "Community Service Program Code List": a list of the objectives that are being worked on by one or more USDA AmeriCorps sites. All work done by USDA AmeriCorps sites is defined by the program (objective) codes listed in this appendix. Each has a unique numerical identifier. II. "Summary of All Work Performed by All Sites in a Particular Program (Objective) Code" is a report that summarizes all the work done by all USDA AmeriCorps sites related to a particular program (objective) code. For example, EN-E004A is the code for "Remove Debris." This report totals the work to show that for program (objective) code EN-E004A a total of 47 acres were cleaned. III. "Summary of All Work Performed by All Sites Within a Particular Quantity Unit of Measure" is a report that groups all the work done at all USDA AmeriCorps sites grouped by the same Quantity Unit of Measure. Where the second appendix groups by the program code, this report groups all units of measure. For example all "acres - cleaned" are grouped together regardless of the program (objective) code under which the work was done. The program (objective) code and objective statement listed in the report is merely the last one of the list from which the units of measure were grouped. This report is most useful in determining how many acres or people were served or affected by the USDA AmeriCorps program. Grantee #: 94ADFDC047 16 APPENDIX I I.
