National Service in Tennessee

More than 6,600 people of all ages and backgrounds are helping to

meet local needs, strengthen communities, and increase civic

engagement through national service in Tennessee. Serving at more

than 970 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 TENNESSEE 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 6,900 young people who have special

needs. Senior Companions help more than 580 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

280 groups across Tennessee.

individuals the opportunity to provide intensive, results-driven service

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

pressing needs in communities across Tennessee. Most AmeriCorps

grant funding goes to the Volunteer Tennessee, 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 11,000 Tennessee

residents have served more than 21 million hours and have qualified

for Segal AmeriCorps Education Awards totaling more than

$34,590,000.

AmeriCorps: This year AmeriCorps will provide more than 1,200

More than 5,300 seniors in Tennessee

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 $19,110,000 to support Tennessee

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 $4,450,000 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 Tennessee, 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 more than $1,130,000 in expanding

the impact of 2 nonprofits in Tennessee.

Teach for America (TFA) places 573 AmeriCorps members in Nashville and Memphis, with the belief that all children deserve the

opportunity to attain an excellent education. They recruit, train and place outstanding teacher leaders into classrooms serving low-income

children. The 2014 Report Card on the Effectiveness of Teacher Training Programs in Tennessee measures the effectiveness of the state’s

43 teacher preparation programs. For the fifth year in a row, Teach For America was identified as one of the state’s most effective teacher

preparation programs. Teach For America-Greater Nashville and Teach For America-Memphis were two of the five programs found to have

teachers “that have consistently outperformed other teachers in the state” Teach For America-Greater Nashville and Teach For AmericaMemphis had the top two most statistically significant positive results among evaluated teacher preparation programs. Teach For

America-Greater Nashville and Teach For America-Memphis teachers are more racially and ethnically diverse than the statewide average.

Knoxville-Knox County Community Action Committee's 40 AmeriCorps members facilitate environmental education using service-learning.

Members work with partner agencies to increase the effectiveness of community programs and services. Two effective instances were a

local stream clean-up event and environmental education. River Rescue used to compete with another local stream clean-up event for

volunteers and dump-site locations. By applying AmeriCorps members and better volunteer strategies, the community was able to

consolidate the events, increase the number of volunteers, and better apply clean-up practices. In-school environmental education has

been the flagship of the CAC AmeriCorps program for well over 15 years. The recycling, composting, and outdoor classrooms are integrated

into curriculum in Knox County schools and are maintained by students in science classrooms.

In its first year, the City of Memphis AmeriCorps VISTA program has placed 16 members at 10 sites. VISTA members are developing 3 new

programs – The Knowledge Quest Community Supported Agriculture program, The Ex-Offender Entrepreneurial Program and the Memphis

Office of Resources and Enterprise Corporate Relations Program. They are also expanding services in an additional 14 sites, including the

Leadership Memphis SUCCESS High Schools Initiative, the OrganWise nutritional and fitness literacy program, and the Women’s

Foundation’s Empowering Families with Sustainable Employment Program. Though 88 percent of VISTAs have been in service less than five

months, an additional 28 organizations have received capacity building services already and one-third report that VISTA members have

helped make their organizations more effective. To date, City of Memphis VISTAs have recruited 86 volunteers, managed 101 volunteers,

and contributed to the training of 110 staff and volunteers. An additional 291 disadvantaged youth have been served through educational

programs and 150 disadvantaged youth have been served through Healthy Futures programs offered by City of Memphis VISTA program

partners.

AmeriCorps NCCC

An AmeriCorps NCCC team worked with the Cumberland Trail State Scenic Trail (CTSST) to assist with the construction of 0.16 miles of new

trail and the installation of 75 stones which will improve the marketability of Campbell County as a hiking destination. The team installed

wooden steps along the Cumberland Trail State Scenic Trail and at North Chickamauga Creek Conservancy which provide a safe access

trail for visitors and bring in more foot traffic. CTSST preserves and protects, in perpetuity, unique examples of natural, cultural, and scenic

areas and provides a variety of safe, quality, outdoor experiences to communities. The team also traveled to Seven Islands Wildlife Refuge

where they assisted with the restoration of 1.02 miles of existing trail, the removal of 15,000 pounds of exotic vegetation and underbrush,

the installation of 750 feet of fencing, the removal of 200 pounds of trash, the landscaping of 5 acres of land, and the tending to 377 trees.

The NCCC team was able to make a huge impact on the community in Campbell County through their restoration of the LaFollette’s Historic

Wedding Chapel and Sharps Chapel Historic School House and their cleanup of the Lewis Cemetery.

For five weeks, an AmeriCorps NCCC team worked with the Vollintine Evergreen Community Association (VECA) in Memphis, Tennessee to

maintain a quality residential neighborhood with new and existing volunteers from the community. VECA was founded in 1971 to increase

communication within a neighborhood of more than 2,500 households that previously had no formal organization. The team worked in the

neighborhood to clear vacant lots of unwanted vegetation and debris, performing multipurpose trail maintenance, and installing railroad

ties to control erosion. In addition, the team worked to install 130 feet of fencing; tend to six gardens by pulling weeds, trimming plants,

laying newspaper and laying 13 yards of mulch to minimize the regrowth of weeds. For houses managed by VECA, the NCCC team painted

walls and created drainage ditches to prevent future damage. They also worked with a local youth group to beautify 12 road medians. In

partnership with Le Bonheur Hospital, the NCCC team also worked to remove asthma triggers in the home of a patient. The NCCC team

brought happiness and encouragement to the Vollintine Evergreen Community while saving thousands of dollars in improvements.

The Knoxville Knox County Community Action Committee Foster Grandparent Program engages 117 Foster Grandparent volunteers to mentor

and tutor 356 children. Station supervisors reported that partly due to the assistance provided by Foster Grandparent volunteers, 86

percent of children served in Pre-K programs demonstrated gains in social and/or emotional development according to the teacher

assessment. According to teacher evaluation, 81 percent of the children served in K-12 classrooms demonstrated improvement in

academic engagement, and 93 percent of special needs children mentored and tutored transitioned to the next grade level.

The Knoxville Knox County Community Action Committee RSVP program mobilized 382 volunteers who served a total of 41,175 hour

meeting a range of needs in the Knoxville community. RSVP volunteers delivered 184,277 meals to 1,161 qualifying homebound seniors,

provided transportation to 198 seniors and individuals with disabilities for a total of 4,069 trips for medical appointments and other

errands necessary to remain independent in their homes. They also conducted home safety checks for 250 seniors living in high crime

areas of Knoxville.

Senior Corps RSVP

The Knoxville Knox County Community Action Committee Senior Companion Program mobilized 93 volunteers to assist 328 homebound and

frail seniors. Senior Companions provide companionship, shopping assistance, accompaniment to medical appointments, and light

cooking and housekeeping. One-third of all clients served were over the age of 85. At the end of the program year, 95 percent of the frail

adults served were able to remain in their homes and avoid premature institutionalization.
