I’m sure many of you still remember Martin Luther King, Jr. also stressed that in his rousing 1961 inaugural address, our moral obligations to our fellow men and President John F. Kennedy memorably said, women, both as citizens of our country and “Ask not what your country can do for you. members of the human race. His influence, Ask what you can do for your country.” But it which was immensely important in rekindling is equally important to note that his very next America’s sense of decency, opportunity and words were, “My fellow citizens of the world: equality, reached far and wide. Among those ask not what America will do for you, but who echoed King’s ideas was Reverend James what together we can do for the freedom of Bevel, who gave a sermon in 1962 in the small man.” Even before the current era of global- town of Ruleville, Mississippi, in which he ization—when not only the spread of new and urged African Americans to register to vote.

BUSH ’S ADVENTURES IN THE NATIONAL SERVICE POLICY ARENA AND FIVE LESSONS FOR PRESIDENT OBAMA Richard Holtzman ABSTRACT As candidates, both Barack Obama and John McCain criticized George W. Bush’s failure to call for sacrifice and service from the American people in the wake of 9/11. However, criticizing the mistakes of a past president is not the same as learning from them. Obama has referred to service as the “cause of my presidency.” If Obama is indeed committed to following through on this campaign rhetoric, what lessons can he learn from Bush’s experiences? This essay offers an analysis of Bush’s adventures in national service policy and, in particular, his failures of presidential leadership in this arena.

  • FY16 Annual Report a Letter from Our CEO
    FY16 Annual Report A Letter From Our CEO Dear Friends, I’ve often heard people say that Corps are one of America’s best kept secrets. For all the people familiar with the tremendous impact Corps have on our young people and communities, there are many more who have never heard of these programs. However, I’m pleased to report that, every year, Corps become less of a secret and are increasingly seen as a go-to strategy for addressing community and conservation needs. Corps had several moments on the national stage in 2016. In the spring, the 21st Century Conservation Service Corps (21CSC) Act – legislation that would facilitate partnerships between Corps and federal agencies, and improve pathways to employment for Corps alumni – was introduced in the U.S. House of Representatives (and in the Senate in 2015). I am pleased to report that, at the very end of the year, the National Park Service Centennial Act was signed into law, containing provisions that will help Corps engage more veterans, and help Corpsmembers translate skills they learn during their service into careers on public lands. Throughout the year, Corps participated alongside elected and federal officials in events to recognize the 100th Anniversary of the National Park Service. By hosting service events, Corps helped launch the Obama Administration’s Every Kid in a Park initiative and Let’s Move Outside! Campaign in several cities across the country. A Corps alumni introduced the President at the National Christmas Tree Lighting. The 21CSC received millions of dollars in donations from private funders and companies like REI, as well as millions in project funding from the federal resource management agencies; articles and op-eds in support of Corps appeared in The Atlantic, on CNN.com, and in various outdoor publications; and a segment on Corps ran on the CBS Sunday Morning show.

  • National Service S U M M
    ABOUT THE ASPEN INSTITUTE ST & THE FRANKLIN PROJECT 21 CENTURY At the Aspen Ideas Festival in June 2012, General Stanley McChrystal received an overwhelming N ATIONAL response to his call for large-scale civilian national service to engage more Americans in serving community and country. The Aspen Institute established the Franklin Project in response to this call to action, to marshal the best case for a voluntary civilian counterpart to military service in the United States. SERVICE The Franklin Project’s vision is to establish a year of full-time national service as a common expectation and opportunity for all young Americans ages 18 to 28. Our goal is to create one million annual opportunities for civilian national service, on par with the number of Americans SUMMIT serving on active duty in our Armed Forces. We seek to dramatically expand opportunities for young Americans to contribute their strengths, knowledge, and entrepreneurial energy to solving our nation’s most pressing challenges, in areas such as education, health, food security, environmental conservation, veterans’ reintegration, and economic opportunity. The Franklin Project seeks to unite leading Americans from all sectors alongside citizens at the grassroots in calling for and building this new vision of civilian national service. We propose to fuel the citizen service movement in America by making the case for a year of national service to become a new civic rite of passage that will bind members of generations to each other and to our nation, while enlisting them to work together to address great national challenges. We are focusing on developing a 21st century architecture for national service that builds off of and strengthens the existing system while promoting new policy ideas to advance the national service movement.

    ABOUT THE ASPEN INSTITUTE & THE FRANKLIN PROJECT THE FRANKLIN PROJECT The Franklin Project is a new venture by the Aspen Institute to marshal the best case for a voluntary civilian counterpart to military service in the United States. At the 2012 Aspen Ideas Festival, General Stanley McChrystal called for large-scale civilian national service to engage more Americans in serving community and country. We believe national service can and should become a common expectation and common opportunity for all Americans. Getting a generation of Americans to spend a year in full-time service is a transformative idea that will unleash a reservoir of human capital to tackle pressing social challenges, unite diverse Americans in common purpose, and cultivate the next generation of leaders. We’re focused on promoting a service year as a civic rite of passage, because it will connect individuals to something bigger than themselves and to an idea that citizenship requires more from each of us. Young Americans between the ages of 18 and 28 can fulfill their national service obligation through service in the military or through the completion of a full-time service year in a civilian service The Summit at Gettysburg is being convened by the Franklin Project in partnership with other leaders program. Service year opportunities would provide participants with a small living allowance so that all in the national service movement: the National Conference on Citizenship, ServiceNation, and Voices for young Americans have opportunities to serve.

Our goal is to create a 21st-century national service system by 2023 that includes one million service This year, our four organizations have come together to form a new coalition: the National Service year positions annually.
