<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>Hello Ashley, I did what is called the
Americort Vista program. I was paid a stifen every two weeks. This
program is strickly administrative work. However there is an area
in Americort called direct service in which you can work directly with
students. This service is usually offered in schools working
hands-on. As a Americort vista member I was the coordinator
for a youth transition program. I emplimented a high school High tech
program for students with disabilities. I developed a employment
readiness program preparing students for a summer job for six
weeks. The workshops consisted of mock interviews, how
to dress appropriately on job, time management etc. After the students
completed the program; I worked with professional people in the community
who interviewed each student and provided constructive feedback. I
raised all mony and each of 10 students were paid 600 dollars for a period
of six weeks. In addition to that, I also worked on the disaster prepareness
team, and went to homes of people with disabilities, and delivered emergency
kits. Before leaving Americort I applied for a grant to continue the
High School High Tec program and got approved.</FONT></DIV>

Seeking ideas for the community servicegroup seminar at national

<DIV> </DIV>Hi all,
<DIV>The overall focus will be on celebrating 20 years of
AmeriCorps, and the service work that the blind have themselves
contributed to the success of the program and the impact the program has
had on those who have served.</DIV>
<DIV> We are inviting those who have served in AmeriCorps
programs to share a bit about their experiences, what they’ve
given, gained and the perceptions they believe they changed of the
blind. </DIV>
<DIV>This will not constitute the entirety of the seminar, but it
will have a place of prominence on the agenda. </DIV>
<DIV>we are looking into inviting service agencies to spend a few
minutes talking about their programs and how attendees may
involve themselves in service via what they have to offer.</DIV>
<DIV>I believe we are targeting the following agencies: the red cross,
big brothers big sisters, habitat for humanity and hands on
network. we’ll probably ask them to introduce themselves to the
attendees and ask them to table in the back of the room should
individuals have further questions regarding involvement in their local
communities Hopefully we will use this opportunity to develop
relationships with these agencies that we can cultivate over the
coming years. </DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Hopefully we can delve deeper into possible partnerships with
these agencies in the future. We could even look
into the possibilities this year, but that depends on
the interest a committed soul or two has in seeing that it
happens. Unfortunately, this can be a bit of an
undertaking and such folks are proving to be in short supply
at the moment. </DIV>
<DIV>We have had some great help in finding the agencies and AmeriCorps
alumni federationests, and this has proven to be invaluable effort and
results-based action that those who have stepped up should
be proud of. </DIV>
<DIV>I’m thinking we are still a few presenters away from this
being the best seminar yet.</DIV>
<DIV>We also might be electing a slate of officers and board members. If
this is true we will have to make some time for this and upon completion
of the meeting we will have become a division of the national federation
of the blind. </DIV>
<DIV>we will see how those details work out because we are still a
ways from convention.</DIV>
<DIV> I hope this helps people help us find some great additions
to the agenda </DIV>
<DIV> Best,</DIV>
<DIV> Darian </DIV>
