National Service in the District of Columbia

More than 3,600 people of all ages and backgrounds are helping to

meet local needs, strengthen communities, and increase civic

engagement through national service in the District of Columbia.

Serving at more than 370 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 THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA 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 20,000 young people who have special

needs. Senior Companions help more than 72 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

41 groups across the District of Columbia.

individuals the opportunity to provide intensive, results-driven service

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

pressing needs in communities across the District of Columbia. Most

AmeriCorps grant funding goes to the Serve DC, 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 5,800 District of

Columbia residents have served more than 8.3 million hours and have

qualified for Segal AmeriCorps Education Awards totaling more than

$19,010,000.

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

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 the District of Columbia,

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

$9,600,000 in expanding the impact of 10 nonprofits in the

District of Columbia, selected and supported by 7 intermediaries.

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

will commit more than $31,800,000 to support District of Columbia

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 $26,640,000 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.

The See Forever Foundation’s Maya Angelou Public Charter Schools (MAPCS) involves four AmeriCorps VISTA members in data analysis,

project resources development, student engagement, and curriculum design. The VISTAs also develop and strengthen volunteer and

mentoring program opportunities. The Foundation designs learning communities in low-income urban areas, where all students,

particularly those who have not succeeded in traditional schools, can reach their potential and prepare for college, careers, and a lifetime

of success. At the MAPCS High School, located in an underserved area east of the Anacostia River, the learning community program is

experiencing great success, as 73 percent of its graduates enroll in college, compared with about 50 percent of high school graduates

among African-Americans in local, low-income communities.

AmeriCorps VISTA

Higher Achievement’s rigorous afterschool and summer academic program closes the opportunity gap for middle school youth in underresourced communities. The program's proven model provides a demanding year-round learning environment, caring role models, and a

culture of high expectations, resulting in college-bound scholars with the character, confidence, and skills to succeed. On average, 95

percent of scholars who complete Higher Achievement advance to top academic high school programs and 93 percent advance to college.

With the support of AmeriCorps VISTA in the areas of program quality and evaluation, core research model development, volunteer/ mentor

recruitment and alumni support; by 2016, Higher Achievement aims to serve 70 percent more students directly and impact more than 7,000

students in Washington, DC, Pittsburgh, PA, Richmond and Alexandria, VA.

AmeriCorps NCCC

In partnership with the District of Columbia Public Schools, an AmeriCorps NCCC team worked with students in the Summer Extended

School Year Program. NCCC members helped close out schools for the summer and to open the new River Terrace Education Campus. The

team cleared out two schools, Mamie D. Lee School and Sharpe Health School, by packing up materials and cleaning furniture. NCCC

members inventoried supplies and packaged over 150 supply kits. The team also provided support for qualified students with disabilities

at risk for significant academic regression over the summer. AmeriCorps members facilitated arrival/dismissal, provided one-on-one

tutoring, entered data, and set up and closed down the program at four of the eleven sites. The team also worked with four different aftercare programs that focused on a variety of goals including STEM education, empowerment, and literacy. The NCCC team’s support enabled

more one on one learning environments so that each student received the individualized attention necessary for success.

A FEMA Corps team developed a curriculum and schedule for a 12-week training for Pilot Academy students. NCCC members engaged in

inventory, accountability, deployments, ordering of supplies, spreadsheets, and IT assistance. Working with the students has helped FEMA

Corps members learn FEMA procedures and protocol. It also broadened their understanding of service and why the initial response to

disaster is so critical to a fast recovery.

The United Planning Organization’s Foster Grandparent Program has more than 200 Foster Grandparents serving in various types of

educational institutions across the District of Columbia. From pre-school to Job Corps, District area seniors are making a difference in

young people’s lives, helping them achieve academic goals. The accomplishments of the DC Foster Grandparent Program have been

highlighted in segments on CNN and Rock Center with Brian Williams, as well as in recent articles in the Washington Post. Currently, the

work of 75 Foster Grandparents placed in regular and special education classrooms in Title I elementary schools like Plummer, Miner, and

Malcom X, has helped increase the academic achievement of 85 percent of the students they work with, according to their teachers.

Senior Corps Foster Grandparent Program

The Washington, DC RSVP program is administered though the nonprofit Family Matters of Greater Washington. More than 150 volunteers

serve in various capacities around the city. From working with veterans, to assisting low income students with literacy; residents over the

age of 55 are making an impact in key areas like education and aging in place. Recently, RSVP in collaboration with the AARP Foundation

launched an innovative program called Connecting to Communities where low-income seniors build connections and technology skills in a

peer-to-peer setting. Since its inception, senior volunteers have trained more than 100 low income senior residents in the use the Internet,

email, social media, and common computer applications that would further their connections to information and other groups of people

with similar interests. After successful participation in the program, all participants receive an iPad and in-home Internet service to help

them stay connected.

The Washington, DC Senior Companion Program is administered by the University of the District of Columbia’s Institute of Gerontology. The

program recruits and trains senior volunteers 55 years and older to serve other residents in their homes or at group facilities such as senior

housing buildings and senior centers. These dedicated volunteers assist ill and home-bound elderly persons with errands, light

housekeeping, meal preparation, and many other activities that allow them to remain in their home, stay connected with others, and age

with dignity. For example, the VA Medical Center is a DC facility that houses veterans with various illnesses and diseases connected to their

tours of duty. Many of these veterans do not have friends or family members in the area. Currently, 33 Senior Companions support 107

veterans at the VA Medical Center.

Senior Corps Senior Companion Program

The Social Innovation Fund is investing $762,500 to expand the impact of 10 nonprofits in the District of Columbia. Social Innovation Fund

programs focus primarily on college preparation, workforce development, and healthy living. Positive Pathways, a program of the

Washington AIDS Partnership, has provided access to care services and linked almost 1,100 individuals to HIV medical care. Through the

KIPP Through College innovation program, 87 percent of KIPP alumni went on to their second year of postsecondary education, exceeding

their goal of 85 percent. In the Urban Alliance program 98 percent of the interns graduated on time and 97 percent were accepted into a

postsecondary program.

Social Innovation Fund

Serve DC’s Volunteer Generation Fund initiative is designed to support nonprofit organizations that work with boys and young men of color

in the District of Columbia in the areas of education, healthy futures, and economic opportunity. In partnership with the Taproot

Foundation, the Serve DC My Brother's Keeper Volunteer Generation project uses pro bono volunteers to help improve the organizational

capacity of nonprofits working in the aforementioned areas. Five nonprofit partners received grants for capacity building and intensive

training from a proven volunteer management curriculum. Each project included a team of 5 Pro Bono Consultants who have donated 100

hours of service each. The impact of those hours can be seen in the number of volunteers that service grant recipients were able to recruit.

For example, DC Greens, a fresh food initiative in intercity food deserts, was able to recruit 150 volunteers to staff their farmers' market;

and DC Scores was able to recruit 350 volunteers to participate as coaches, referees, or summer camp volunteers to provide structured

soccer activities to at risk youth throughout the school year and summer.

Washington, DC AIDS United AIDS United’s Access to Care Initiative (A2C) aims to increase the

number of HIV positive individuals receiving care. The SIF grant to

AIDS United supports 12 innovative partnerships – collaborations of

nonprofits, researchers and others – that are improving individual

health outcomes and strengthening local services systems. In total, it

will connect at least 6,146 low-income and marginalized individuals

with HIV to high quality health care and the supportive services they

need. In conjunction with this SIF grant program, AIDS United has

partnered with researchers at Johns Hopkins’ Bloomberg School of

Public Health to conduct rigorous evaluations of its initiatives.

Findings are expected to inform federal policy, including existing

federal funding for HIV/AIDS prevention and treatment, and the

implementation of the White House Office of National AIDS Policy’s

recent National HIV/AIDS Strategy. Lessons from the evaluations will

also inform efforts to increase access to care among individuals with

other chronic diseases.

Washington, DC Local Initiatives Support Corporation (2010) The Local Initiatives Support Corporation (LISC) is expanding by six

cities and by 75% (from approximately 4,000 to 7,500) the number of

individuals and families served by an innovative workforce

development and asset building model called Financial Opportunity

Centers (FOCs). The FOC model focuses on improving the financial

bottom line for low-to-moderate income families by helping people

boost earnings, reduce expenses, and make appropriate financial

decisions. A rigorous evaluation design to be conducted at Chicago

FOC sites, and additional analysis of other expansion sites, will

provide greater evidence about the model’s impact on employment,

earnings and savings. The studies, to be conducted by the Economic

Mobility Corporation, have been designed to inform workforce policy

more broadly.

Washington, DC Share Our Strength Since its launch in 2010, the No Kid Hungry campaign has changed

lives in communities across the country. By working with the most

effective partners, we are able to put our resources behind efforts that

work to reach more children. In September 2014, Share Our Strength

was awarded a five-year Social Innovation Fund grant, further

validating the No Kid Hungry strategy, its scalability, and its potential

to create transformational change. With this grant, six of the highest

potential performing organizations were awarded grants totaling $1.85

million in the first year. This significant investment in scaling our

program is moving us further, faster across the nation. Through the

work of these new No Kid Hungry Communities, we are setting out to

reach nearly 2 million children from low-income families. Surrounding

kids with healthy meals is achievable in every corner of this country –

from urban Seattle, to suburban parts of Michigan, to deep in the

Heart of Texas.

Washington, DC US Soccer Foundation The US Soccer Foundation (USSF) will support the expansion and

replication of Soccer for Success (SfS), a no-cost, after-school, sportsbased youth development program whose goal is to improve health by

arresting and reducing obesity through physical activity and nutrition

education. Subgrantees are located in urban areas and participate in

sophisticated data collection documenting effects on participants’

body mass index (BMI) and physical fitness. The USSFF will

administer SIF grant awards and provide oversight and technical

assistance to its subgrantees, which will implement and conduct

Soccer for Success (SfS) programs, the USSFF's signature anti-obesity

effort, for five years. SfS uses a group mentoring model in a sportsbased environment to encourage physical activity with an infusion of

nutrition, health education, and healthy lifestyles. SfS's goal of

improving participants' health will be followed using quantitative

indicators for the following measurable outcomes: reduction in body

mass index (BMI), increase in nutrition knowledge, and increase in

fitness levels. Rigorous data collection and evaluation will support

preliminary evidence and demonstrate that Soccer for Success (SfS) is

an economical, scalable, and evidence-based program to arrest,

prevent, and reduce obesity, a national health crisis of staggering

proportions.

Positive Pathways is a program in the District of Columbia that assists

HIV-positive African Americans living in Wards 5-8 to participate with

HIV medical care and supportive safety net services, with a particular

focus on HIV-positive women and their partners. Led by Washington

AIDS Partnership, Positive Pathways is a collaboration between eight

community partners and the DC Department of Health. Through a

network of 12 trained peer Community Health Workers (CHWs) placed

in community and primary care settings, Positive Pathways works to

support program participants to take full advantage of HIV medical

care and other community services to improve their health and quality

of life. CHWs work at their employing organizations and in the

community to identify individuals who are HIV-positive and not

receiving HIV medical care in order to build trust and inform them

about living with HIV, to provide personalized assistance to help them

enter medical care, and to support them throughout the early part of

their care until they are fully involved. Peers utilize their unique

position to address barriers to care that can present challenges for

other medical professionals. These CHWs provide trust-based

information and education; help clients overcome fear, denial and

stigma; conduct outreach and support deep in the community; take the

time to walk clients through the often overwhelming healthcare

system; and help clients strategize to manage the logistics of caring

for oneself in the context of a complicated life.

The SIB Lab will work with the District of Columbia Water and Sewer

Authority (DC Water) to explore the use of Pay for Success (PFS) models

to develop “green” infrastructure storm water solutions designed to

improve water quality, mitigate the impacts of climate change, and

promote environmental, socio-economic and health benefits.DC Water

is pursuing the PFS model as a potential framework for financing a

pilot Green Infrastructure Project (GI Project) that is designed to

reduce the scope, scale and cost of the mandated grey infrastructure

tunnel system, alleviate ratepayer burden, and produce measurable

outcomes for communities within the District.Specifically, the SIB Lab

will be using available data and evidence to conduct a feasibility

analysis of the proposed GI Project using the PFS model. The feasibility

analysis would focus on five main aspects of the PFS transaction: (1)

assessing whether the proposed interventions produce the desired

outcomes; (2) confirming that the likely outcomes satisfy cost-benefit

principles; (3) developing an efficient and effective payment structure

within a PFS model; (4) insuring that there are adequate service

providers that can deliver the desired outcomes; and (5) establishing

rigorous evaluation criteria and metrics to measure the initiative’s

outcomes.
