National Service in Utah

More than 7,400 people of all ages and backgrounds are helping to

meet local needs, strengthen communities, and increase civic

engagement through national service in Utah. Serving at more than

740 locations throughout the state, these citizens tutor and mentor

children, support veterans and military families, provide health

services, restore the environment, respond to disasters, increase

economic opportunity, and recruit and manage volunteers.

MEETING COMMUNITY NEEDS IN UTAH Senior Corps:

contribute their time and talents in one of three Senior Corps

programs. Foster Grandparents serve one-on-one as tutors and

mentors to more than 9,400 young people who have special

needs. Senior Companions help more than 1,300 homebound

seniors and other adults maintain independence in their own

homes. RSVP volunteers conduct safety patrols, renovate homes,

protect the environment, tutor and mentor youth, respond to

natural disasters, and provide other services through more than

350 groups across Utah.

individuals the opportunity to provide intensive, results-driven service

to meet education, environmental, health, economic, and other

pressing needs in communities across Utah. Most AmeriCorps grant

funding goes to the Utah Commission on Service and Volunteerism,

which in turn awards grants to nonprofit groups to respond to local

needs. Most of the remainder of the grant funding is distributed by

CNCS directly to multi-state and national organizations through a

competitive grants process. Other individuals serve through

AmeriCorps VISTA, whose members help bring individuals and

communities out of poverty by serving full-time to fight illiteracy,

improve health services, create businesses, and increase housing

opportunities, and AmeriCorps NCCC (National Civilian Community

Corps), a 10-month, full time residential program for men and women

between the ages of 18 and 24. In exchange for their service,

AmeriCorps members earn an education award that can be used to

pay for college or to pay back qualified student loans. Since 1994,

more than 13,000 Utah residents have served more than 13 million

hours and have qualified for Segal AmeriCorps Education Awards

totaling more than $28,380,000.

AmeriCorps: This year AmeriCorps will provide more than 1,300

More than 6,000 seniors in Utah

The Corporation for National and Community Service is a

federal agency that improves lives, strengthens communities,

and fosters civic engagement through service and

volunteering. CNCS annually engages more than five million

Americans in service to meet local needs through Senior

Corps, AmeriCorps, and national days of service; improves

communities through the Social Innovation Fund, and leads

President Obama's national call to service initiative, United

We Serve. To learn more visit NationalService.gov or Serve.gov

Social Innovation Fund: The Social Innovation Fund transforms

 This year, the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS)

will commit more than $12,240,000 to support Utah communities

through national service initiatives. CNCS invests in cost-effective

community solutions--working hand in hand with local partners to

improve lives, expand economic opportunity, and engage citizens in

solving problems in their communities. Serving in many of the state's

most impoverished communities, CNCS provides vital support to

schools, food banks, homeless shelters, community health clinics,

youth centers, veterans service facilities, and other nonprofit and

faith-based organizations at a time of growing demand for services.

Through a unique public-private partnership, this federal investment

will leverage an additional $6,090,000 in other resources to

strengthen community impact, build local support, and increase return

on taxpayer dollars.

lives and communities using limited federal investment as a

catalyst to grow the impact of nonprofits with evidence of strong

results. It harnesses the expertise of grantmaking intermediaries

to identify, evaluate and expand effective nonprofits and

engages funding partners to contribute nearly three dollars to

every one federal dollar invested. As the Social Innovation Fund

network grows programs that work in Utah, more people are able

to overcome their most pressing challenges in the areas of

economic opportunity, health, and youth development. The Social

Innovation Fund is investing $100,000 in expanding the impact

of 1 nonprofit in Utah.

The Utah Federation for Youth is a youth development and drug prevention program that utilizes education, community service, and outdoor

recreation activities to carry out its mission. AmeriCorps NCCC teams have served with the organization’s Wonderful Outdoor World (WOW)

summer program, which offers opportunities for youth to build skills that make camping and other outdoor activities a successful life-long

passion, and begins a connection between youth and their environment through education and service projects. AmeriCorps NCCC members

served as camp counselors, cooked meals for the campers, facilitated camper registration, and planned and executed activities.

AmeriCorps NCCC members supervised and facilitated eight overnight environmental education camps for 60 campers, ages 8-11 and

created five camp programs.

The Center for the School of the Future (CSF) AmeriCorps VISTA project has four major focus areas related to building capacity for school

improvement: community involvement, teacher development, partnership development, and development of sustainable systems and

infrastructure to support school improvement. In 2013, 16 AmeriCorps VISTA members engaged the community by recruiting more than

1,000 community volunteers who served more than 5,700 hours in Utah schools; strengthened School Community Councils; developed

train-the-trainer teacher development curricula and supported Professional Learning Communities in schools; assisted schools in

assessment using data-driven school improvement measures including Indicators of School Quality; and developed resources and

partnerships to implement tutoring, mentoring, behavior support, literacy, and high school graduation programs in schools across the

state.

AmeriCorps VISTA

Weber Human Services engages 93 Foster Grandparent volunteers in seven school districts in Weber, Morgan, Davis, Box Elder, and Cache

Counties. In the Ogden District, 50 percent of third graders fall below the benchmarks in literacy and 73 percent qualify for free or reducedprice school lunch. During 2011-12, volunteers tutored 1,508 children at least three times a week, totaling 63,873 volunteer

hours. Teachers reported 71 percent of the children who received tutoring improved their reading scores. Teachers also reported that 89

percent were more confident, shown by willingness to read aloud and eagerness to perform tasks. In recognition of the FGP tutors’ results,

the Ogden School District has asked to work with the project to develop a method to track the DIBELS (Dynamic Indicators of Basic Early

Literacy Skills) pre and post test scores of children tutored by the FGP volunteers. DIBELS, a state standard, will provide better data for

training and assigning tutors.

Mountainlands Community Housing Trust (MCHT) is a development organization that provides stewardship for shared-equity homes in

Summit County. The organization received an initial subgrant of $130,000 per year from Social Innovation Fund (SIF) intermediary NCB

Capital Impact, which will be matched by MCHT dollar-for-dollar. With SIF support, MCHT anticipates adding 150-200 new ownership units

to its portfolio over five years. MCHT has the relationships, regulatory framework, and organizational capacity to increase scale

aggressively, increasing both the number of affordable units in Summit County and the stewardship of affordable homes.
