ABOUT THE ST & THE 21 CENTURY

At the 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 . 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. Our work has encompassed a series of gatherings of critical stakeholders and the publication of seminal papers at The Aspen Institute; briefings for the , Congress and governmental leaders; the development of the Franklin Project Plan of Action; and an action- inspiring Summit leading into the Aspen Ideas Festival in June 2013, followed by a public campaign to be launched in the fall of 2013.

Welcome to the 21 Century National Service Summit. We are honored that you have joined us for this r eek (to Rio Grande Trail) MAP r G working summit to create a new civic rite of passage for all young Americans.

tle C Rio s America needs universal national service. America’s young adults can help solve our country’s most Ca pressing challenges and, in the process, become connected to one another and to the nation. As the

wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are drawn down, and as our country faces new challenges and divisions R within and outside our own borders, we must rebuild a sense of common purpose through national oa ASPEN MEADOWS ring st service to meet the unique needs and opportunities of the 21 century. RECEPTION CENTER F or KRESGE BUILDING k Ri Since October 2012, the Franklin Project at the Aspen Institute has convened top leaders from the v e military, government, non-profit, business, labor, philanthropic, education, faith-based, media, and r

technology sectors to create a revolutionary plan: one that will enable full-time national service to oad WN ASPEN R O s T become a common expectation and opportunity for all young people in our nation. We have learned from w o WN these top leaders, listened to the views of the American people on national service through a nationally O Bike Path MeadO D representative survey, commissioned research on the economic case for national service, analyzed the T ANDERSON PARK evidence for how national service is meeting national challenges, and assembled a Leadership Council Hiking Trail of outstanding Americans from across sectors, administrations and political parties.

Walking Path st We have developed a Plan of Action for a 21 Century National Service System that will offer at least one ASPEN MEADOWS RECEPTION CENTER million full-time civilian national service opportunities for young adults ages 18-28 every year, on par Plato’s, Meadows Restaurant, Hefner Lounge, Merrill Patio GREENWALD with the more than one million Americans who serve on active duty in our Armed Forces.

21ST CENTURY NATIONAL SERVICE SUMMIT | JUNE 24-25 2013 | ASPEN COLORADO 21ST CENTURY NATIONAL SERVICE SUMMIT | JUNE 24-25 2013 | ASPEN COLORADO 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. Our work has encompassed a series of gatherings of critical stakeholders and the publication of seminal papers at The Aspen Institute; briefings for the White House, Congress and governmental leaders; the development of the Franklin Project Plan of Action; and an action- inspiring Summit leading into the Aspen Ideas Festival in June 2013, followed by a public campaign to be launched in the fall of 2013.
