Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 88 / Friday, May 8, 2009 / Notices 21663 input on the issues outlined above, please consider the following questions: Spurring Innovation and Supporting the Nonprofit Sector Conference Calls and Public Input Meetings Expanding Opportunities To Serve The Act calls on the Corporation to become a hub of innovation and support for the nonprofit sector as a whole. How should the Corporation implement that goal? What does the sector need that CNCS can provide with expanded service opportunities? How should the Social Innovation Fund operate in order to provide seed money and scale-up capital for innovative and evidencebased programs? How should the Volunteer Generation Fund operate to ensure we are maximizing its potential to support the recruitment and management of volunteers? How should the Nonprofit Capacity Building Program be implemented to provide training and technical assistance to small and mid-sized non-profits? How should the Serve America Fellows and Encore Fellows programs be implemented? How much capacity is required of commissions to launch the Serve America Fellows program? How should we develop the list of qualified eligible organizations? How can we effectively spur innovation in servicelearning? How should the new Innovative Service-Learning funds be utilized in Learn and Serve America? How should the Silver Scholarships program be implemented? How should the Summer of Service program be implemented? The Corporation is planning six public input meetings across the country and will also be scheduling conference calls. The public input meetings have been scheduled as follows: May 13, 1–4 p.m.—Springfield, MO May 14, 1–4 p.m.—Columbia, SC May 20, 12:30–2:30 p.m.—Washington, DC (During public comment segment at conclusion of Public Board Meeting). May 22, 9 a.m.–12 p.m.—Boston, MA May 27, 9 a.m.–12 p.m.—Salt Lake City, UT May 28, 1–4 p.m.—New Orleans, LA Please check our Web site at https:// www.nationalservice.gov/serveact for further information on the times, locations, and other relevant information regarding these meetings and conference calls. How can CNCS and its partners attract people of all ages to serve? How should the Corporation and its partners identify and nurture new programs that can host additional AmeriCorps slots? What are some promising approaches to promoting more service programs focused on education, healthy futures, clean energy, veterans and economic opportunity? What do State Commissions, national intermediaries, and other partners view as the best strategies for reaching and developing new program sponsors? What kind(s) of assistance do grantees need to continue delivering high quality programs and to expand? Should the Service Corps outlined in the Act (education, healthy futures, clean energy, veterans and economic opportunity) be focus areas within AmeriCorps or programs with their own identity? How should CNCS and its partners manage the growth of service brands? Combining Assets for Greater Impact How can CNCS and its programs capitalize on the diversity of our programs while also coordinating efforts creatively and effectively for maximum impact? How can the Corporation stimulate new partnerships, both within the government sector and with businesses and foundations, to combine our assets for greater impact? hsrobinson on PROD1PC76 with NOTICES Demonstrating Impact In what ways can service produce the greatest impact? How do we better demonstrate impact, and as we move to more standardized performance measures, how do we preserve the diversity of programs and localized nature of solutions? What is the best way to identify program models that work? How should the Corporation transition from the current practice of self-nominated performance measures in AmeriCorps to standardized measures? For example, the Act sets forth standard measures for each of the five Service Corps. In education, the legislation includes performance measures such as: Student engagement, student attendance, student behavior, and student academic achievement. What support do grantees need to implement these new measures? Should the Corporation establish standard national performance measures in VISTA, Senior Corps and Learn and Serve? If so, how? Should there be a few measures that apply to all Corporation programs? VerDate Nov<24>2008 17:51 May 07, 2009 Jkt 217001 Dated: May 5, 2009. Frank R. Trinity, General Counsel. [FR Doc.

What are ways to reduce burden, avoid duplication and increase efficiency? How can the Corporation consolidate the application process most effectively? How can the Corporation reduce reporting requirements while still ensuring appropriate use of federal funds? The Corporation intends to implement fixed amount grants for programs in which the cost of running the program is substantially more than the amount received in the grant. To accomplish this, the Corporation must know the costs of each type of program in order to set the ‘‘fixed’’ grant amount. From the grantee perspective, what are the known costs for programs with parttime members? What are the operational benefits/challenges from the grantee perspective of fixed-amount grants? How do we structure fixed-price grants so that they realize the promise of a reduction in burden, while at the same time providing better information about impact?
