National Service in Georgia

More than 3,900 people of all ages and backgrounds are helping to

meet local needs, strengthen communities, and increase civic

engagement through national service in Georgia. Serving at more

than 590 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 GEORGIA 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 1,900 young people who have special

needs. Senior Companions help more than 630 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

120 groups across Georgia.

individuals the opportunity to provide intensive, results-driven service

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

pressing needs in communities across Georgia. Most AmeriCorps

grant funding goes to the Georgia Commission for 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 hunger and

illiteracy, improve health services, 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 19,000 Georgia

residents have served more than 27 million hours and have qualified

for Segal AmeriCorps Education Awards totaling more than

$59,400,000.

AmeriCorps: This year AmeriCorps will provide more than 1,100

More than 2,800 seniors in Georgia

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 engages millions of 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 volunteer initiatives across

the nation. To learn more visit NationalService.gov or

Social Innovation Fund: The Social Innovation Fund transforms

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

will commit more than $20,600,000 to support Georgia communities

through national service and social innovation 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 $17,310,000 in other resources

to strengthen community impact, build local support, and increase

return on taxpayer dollars. Nationwide, CNCS, its grantees, and

project sponsors generated more than $1.25 billion in outside

resources from businesses, foundations, public agencies, and other

sources in FY 2015.

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 Georgia, 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 $150,000 in expanding

the impact of 2 nonprofits in Georgia.

State Commission

In 2014-2015, the Georgia Commission for Service and Volunteerism administered 15 AmeriCorps State programs, deploying 627

AmeriCorps members. These AmeriCorps members recruited an additional 9,943 volunteers who served a combined 53,563 hours in areas

of education, community cleanup, environmental services, veterans and military families, refugee services, nutrition and health, and other

areas related to human needs. Based on the Independent Sector’s estimate of the value of volunteer time, this equates $1,245,875 worth

of services provided by volunteers directly recruited by AmeriCorps members. The Corporation for National and Community Service invested

$3,437,917 to organizations located in Georgia. As a result of this federal investment, subgrantees of the Georgia Commission for Service

and Volunteerism leveraged an additional $1,698,095 in cash and in-kind resources. Volunteer, in-kind and cash leverage totaled

$2,943,970. This was almost dollar-for-dollar leverage due to the CNCS investment in programs overseen by the Georgia Commission for

Service and Volunteerism.

Covenant House of Georgia has ten AmeriCorps members who serve Atlanta 18 to 21-year-old youth who are homeless, have run away, or

are at risk of homelessness. Homelessness is a priority focus area for AmeriCorps in Georgia. The AmeriCorps members help give the youth

at Covenant House the tools they need to become stable, gain life skills, and move from the streets to self-sufficiency. Members work oneon-one with youth to develop individualized goals and plans, and mentor them through the plans for up to a year. In the last year, the

AmeriCorps members helped 557 youth, which is 77 percent of all youth served by Covenant House during that time. The members also

engaged more than 800 people as volunteers at Covenant House. The members, along with the community resources they bring in to

support Covenant House, are essential to changing the lives of youth who are served there.

AmeriCorps State

Youth Villages in Douglasville, has 22 AmeriCorps members living and serving on-site at one of the state's largest psychiatric residential

treatment programs. It provides residential and community-based treatment and accredited educational services for youth from ages 5 to

21 who are considered difficult to reach. They are referred to Youth Villages by state agencies, mental health professionals, and advocacy

offices, often as an alternative to youth detention. The AmeriCorps members tutor the youth, organize service-learning activities, and run

community-strengthening activities. When needed, they also provide disaster response throughout the state. In the past year, AmeriCorps

members tutored 102 students in life skills, and 92 percent of a sample group showed improvement. The members also tutored 101

students in academic areas, and 82 percent of a sample group increased their academic skills and knowledge. After 211 students

participated in service-learning activities, 90 percent of a sample group reported an increase in civic engagement. The members engaged

2,024 volunteers who gave 5,069 hours of service.

College Advising Corps has 28 AmeriCorps members serving full-time as college advisors at 22 high schools in Atlanta, Athens, Augusta,

Conyers, Norcross, and Thomson. These members are placed underserved high schools and work to increase the number of low-income,

first-generation, and underrepresented students who enter and complete higher education. The AmeriCorps members provide the counsel

and encouragement that students need to navigate the college admissions process. They help students plan their college searches,

complete admissions and financial aid applications, and enroll at schools that will serve them well. In 2015, these 28 members served

6,600 students, held 6,870 individual meetings with students, and met with 5,207 students in classroom presentations or group meetings.

They organized college representative visits for 1,256 seniors and helped 1,570 seniors submit 5,298 college applications. They have

helped students amass over $9 million in scholarships and institutional aid for the coming school year.

AmeriCorps National

FoodCorps has eight AmeriCorps members serving in Atlanta, Athens, and Habersham and Rabun Counties. FoodCorps is a nationwide

team of AmeriCorps leaders who work under the direction of local partner organizations to connect children to real food and help them grow

up healthy. They teach children hands-on lessons about food and nutrition build and tend school gardens, teach cooking lessons, and help

change what's on lunch trays so that children can eat healthy food from local farms. In program year 2014-2015, the FoodCorps members

in Georgia served 19,290 children, built or brought back into use 29 school and community gardens, harvested 1,690 pounds of produce,

and recruited 554 community volunteers.

The Step Up Savannah AmeriCorps VISTA project has helped strengthen partnerships between Step Up and four host agencies. Host

agencies include Georgia Legal Services Program, Consumer Credit Counseling Service, United Way of the Coastal Empire, and the Wesley

Community Center. The VISTA project has enabled these agencies to build capacity through increased fundraising, enhanced use of

volunteers, and program development. Through VISTA support, the project reached 195 percent of its overall goals of 8,000 individuals

served, and 255 percent of its goal for individuals served through asset building programming. Volunteers were recruited for programs like

the Pro Bono project, the Volunteer Income Tax Assistance program, poverty simulations, financial coaching, and grant review committees.

More than $60,000 of cash and in-kind resources were secured through the VISTA program.

AmeriCorps VISTA members serving at Athens Land Trust (ALT) have helped the organization to strengthen its capacity to build safe,

sustainable, and healthy communities. Athens and the surrounding counties served through the ALT have some of the highest poverty in

the state. The VISTA team has built beneficial relationships with organizations from the University of Georgia and other local nonprofits and

has significantly increased the resources of ALT. The VISTA Development Assistant has been invaluable in identifying and pursuing

resources for fundraising, submitting 15 grant applications since December 2014. Six of these grants were awarded to ALT: A $20,000

National Community Land Trust Network Catalyzing Impact grant for an affordable housing program; a $10,000 Seeds of Change grant for

West Broad Market Garden; a $4,000 grant from Wells Fargo for first time homebuyer education; a $2,500 CSX Beyond Our Rails grant to

support nutrition education and wellness programs at West Broad Market Garden; a $2,500 Bank of America Foundation grant to support

ALT's Homebuyer Education and Credit Counseling Program; and a $29,000 Enterprise Community Partners grant.

AmeriCorps NCCC

An AmeriCorps NCCC team partnered with the Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park to maintain trails and create a sustainable

road-bed that was severely eroded during a flood in 2009. The purpose of the park is to preserve, protect, and interpret, for the benefit and

inspiration of the people, the historical and natural features of this major battle site in the American Civil War’s 1864 Atlanta Campaign.

The park is the largest contiguous green space in the Atlanta metro area with nearly 3,000 acres and 22 miles of hiking trails. In the park,

the team dug irrigation systems, built erosion controlling walls, water bars and steps, restored a mile and a half of trail, repaired a scenic

overlook, restored a streambed, cleared invasive species, and helped supervise a YMCA camp that helped get city kids into green spaces.

Last year, 2.1 million people visited the park, and the park employs only 19 people. The members’ work has kept the trails in shape not only

for hikers’ comfort but for hikers’ safety as well and has allowed for work to get done that was beyond the capacity of the park’s staff and

volunteer base.

In partnership with the Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR), an AmeriCorps NCCC team assisted with managing invasive

species and other projects. The mission of the DNR is to sustain, enhance, protect and conserve Georgia's natural, historic and cultural

resources for present and future generations, while recognizing the importance of promoting the development of the commerce and industry

that utilizes sound environmental practices. The NCCC team began its project in Brunswick, navigating the Altamaha River and treating it

for water hyacinth. The team then spent a majority of its time removing invasive species from Cay Creek, Sand dunes in Townsend, the

Earth Day Trail, and Sapelo Island. Afterwards, members worked with the Historical Brunswick Foundation assisting in the restoration of

the Smith House, supported St. Simon's Land Trust with oyster bed restoration, trail work and stream bank stabilization projects, and lastly

worked at the Sapelo Island visitor’s center clearing trails and tending the center's garden. The team accomplished much that the DNR,

and its partner organizations, have had difficulty completing in a timely manner.

Economic Opportunity Authority's (EOA) Head Start Program has provided education for pre-school children for 48 years. The Head Start

program is a community action program that provides comprehensive early childhood education to low-income children. To be eligible, a

child must be 3 -5 years of age, reside in Chatham or Effingham Counties, and meet the program's low-income eligibility guidelines.

Without intervention the identified children will not acquire the skills necessary to be successful in school. The extensive resources and

funding for one-on-one intervention is limited. The EOA’s Foster Grandparents help provide the support needed. Foster Grandparents assist

pre-school children to develop the skills they need to prepare for kindergarten by giving them the extra attention and skill building they

need to prepare for educational success. Of the 87 children served by Foster Grandparents, 68 (78 percent) of them demonstrated

significant gains in social and emotional development.

Senior Corps Foster Grandparent Program

Thirteen RSVP volunteers serving through the Atlanta Regional Commission engaged 899 individuals through disaster preparedness

activities which included educational presentations, fairs, outreach events, and materials distribution. Many of the events and activities

under the disaster preparedness work plan were community fairs or events where volunteers spoke one-on-one with individuals. Of the

disaster preparedness presentations provided, 163 participants turned in surveys after disaster presentations. Of these, 99 percent of the

respondents felt the information shared on disaster preparedness was important for them, and 96 percent felt they knew more about how to

prepare for disasters after the presentation was completed. Almost everyone (99 percent of the survey participants who responded)

indicated they would take some kind of action with the information they learned during the presentation.

The Georgia Southern University (GSU) Senior Companion program provides an invaluable service to low income, isolated, and/or disabled

seniors living in rural communities. GSU serves nine rural counties in South Georgia. Research shows rural elders tend to have fewer

individuals available to provide support than their urban counterparts. Senior Companions serving through GSU provided support and

respite services to 34 home bound low income seniors. In so many ways Senior Companions help to save the lives of elders. A GSU Senior

Companion serves a frail elderly couple in a very rural area. The husband is a WWI veteran. Upon arriving at the couple’s house, the Senior

Companion could not get the couple to answer the door. Upon gaining entry into the house, the Senior Companion found that both the wife

and husband had fallen. The Senior Companion was able to get both seniors the critical assistance they needed. Because of the

intervention of the Senior Companion, the couple was able to avoid a long hospitalization or serious injury and return to their routine

activities.

Senior Corps Senior Companion Program

The Social Innovation Fund (SIF) transforms lives by using evidence to find what works and make it work for more people. The SIF Classic

and SIF Pay for Success programs harness the expertise of grant-making intermediaries to identify, evaluate and expand effective

nonprofits serving low-income communities across America. Through Soccer for Success in Atlanta, more than 650 youth were provided

with physical activity, nutrition education, mentorship, and family engagement opportunities that combat childhood obesity and promote

healthy lifestyles. The Social Innovation Fund is investing $52,500 in expanding the impact of one nonprofit in the state.
