Impact Report2003 - 2004

Letter from the CEO and Co-Founder

What is it to have "a calling"? That burning aspiration that won't die downuntil it is explored. "I want to be that doctor in a white coat I see on TV." "I want toenrich the world with my music."

Increasingly, it seems "a calling" is considered an indulgent fantasy, but not something to betaken seriously. How impractical it seems when that person craving the white doctor's coat isa poor 35-year-old woman with only a high school degree and three children to feed. What aterrible waste it seems for a college-educated Biology major to decide that his true love ismusic, and that what he really wants is to play in a band.

I find it endlessly inspiring to think of NSP as being in the business of addressing callings.Where else could that woman come and confide in someone her dreams of pursuing medicinewithout being laughed out the door? Without being told that all she can hope for is life as aprep cook or a janitor? And who could better understand her hopes and dreams than thatidealistic student with his own seemingly unattainable goals of playing music?

And so the magical connection between NSP clients and volunteers begins. When you thenadd to the mix NSP's intensive volunteer training, our state-of-the-art data managementsystems, and our growing network of partner agencies and employers, you have the makingsfor true success.

Throughout the following pages of this year's Impact Report, you'll see just how much ourclients, volunteers, partners, and donors have accomplished this year. Since last year, we havedoubled our client numbers, opened six new offices, and contributed over $1,000,000 worth ofvolunteer services to our local office communities.

As you read through all of these impressive accomplishments, I hope you'll keep in mind thatstudent and client connection, which is at the heart of the NSP model. Think back to that firstperson who took you seriously when you deigned to dream and have faith in the fact that,thanks to your support this past year, hundreds of students in NSP offices served that role forsomeone today.

With gratitude,

KIRSTEN E. LODAL

11-13 NSP's Network

WHAT WE DONSP operates a national network of resource centers (local offices), staffed by student volunteers from area collegesand universities. Working one-on-one with low-income community members (clients), NSP volunteers provide intensiveon-site and referral services that enable clients to: locate employment; secure affordable housing, health care,childcare, and other services; and pursue long-term career and life goals. Perhaps most importantly, NSP volunteersprovide clients with hours of listening and support services that are rarely available in other service agencies.

HOW IT WORKSTHE NSP LOCAL OFFICE

NSP local offices are located in impoverished areas (accessible tocampuses) that exhibit high levels of unemployment,homelessness, and other pervasive barriers to work, education,and service access. Local offices are open to the community from40-50 hours each week. Offices are typically situated in communitycenters that house several other agencies.

Each NSP local office is staffed by:

2-4 Local Directors - Student leaders who are appointed for one-year terms and provide management and vision for an office.

1 Site Coordinator - A one-year full-time fellow (funded through theAmeriCorps*VISTA program) who provides capacity building supportto the local offices to ensure efficient volunteer performance.

15-50 Student Volunteers - Students who work directly with NSPclients to provide assistance in identifying appropriate services.

ClientsNSP's target client base consists of individuals aged 16-65 who lack sufficientaccess to the employment opportunities and social services available to them.NSP's clientele is generally low-income and/or homeless, an even mix of males andfemales, and exceedingly diverse in race, language spoken, religion, and ethnicity.

Community PartnersNSP enlists a network of local specialists through both its partnerships and itsLocal Advisory Boards to connect clients to the services they need. For example,NSP does not provide childcare, but each NSP office forms partnerships with localchildcare providers that offer their services to NSP clients as relevant situationsarise.

Local Advisory BoardsAll NSP offices are supported by Local Advisory Boards, made up of communityleaders within the human services, government, education, and private sectors.NSP's Local Advisory Boards ensure that each local office reflects its hostcommunity's culture and priorities.

Focus on TrainingThe summer of 2004 was marked by three intense training events for NSP'slocal leadership.

Summer Director Training kick started the season by preparing students tolead the offices during the busy summer months. Site Coordinator Training -The largest to-date, integrating a total of 19 AmeriCorps*VISTA members toserve full-time in NSP's 15 local offices and the national office. The AugustLeadership Conference gave local offices the opportunity to complete strategicplanning for the months ahead, transition knowledge of summer activities, andthank the outgoing Site Coordinators.

HighlightsNew National PartnershipsNSP forged ground-breaking national partnerships with the Children's DefenseFund, IRS VITA (Volunteer Income Tax Assistance) sites, the Campus Opportunityand Outreach League/Idealist.org, and Youth Service America. NSPstrengthened its relationships with the Department of Labor and theAmeriCorps*VISTA program.Six New Offices

NSP Baltimore, Chicago, Philadelphia West,Philadelphia North, and Philadelphia Northwestopened their doors to the community, serving 826clients during PY'04. After several months ofpreparation, NSP's 15th office in Somerville, MA,opened and began serving the greater Bostoncommunity in September 2004.

Services RenderedNSP serves the full breadth of client needs. Services renderedshows both the variety of services NSP offices provide, as well as thenumber of individual services rendered to clients within each servicearea. On average, each client sought assistance in at least fourdifferent service areas in PY'04 (i.e. employment, housing, legalassistance, and childcare), and received seven unique services fromNSP volunteers (i.e. housing placement, resume written, successfulreferral to job training program).

5 Year TotalsProven demand for NSP's services across the country. Thesteady rise in client numbers reflects the demand for NSP's servicesamongst community members. Overwhelming increases in volunteerhours, balanced with less notable increases in volunteer numbers,indicate the focus on recruiting a smaller, more committed volunteercorps. Nonetheless, volunteer recruitment remains an area of ongoingfocus, as NSP prepares for a continued increase in client flow.

During the 2004 Program Year,performance measurement ranked first among

NSP's programmatic priorities. Student leaders continue to beheld directly accountable for managing office operations and tracking

performance metrics, thereby increasing both their sense of empowerment as leaders and theirresponsibility for the growth of the organization as a whole. With an eye towards increasing the numberand quality of evaluation measures, the organization embarked on three key initiatives this year:

Upgrading the CORI System Along with NSP's corporate website, the CORI(Central Online Resource Index) System alsoreceived a face-lift.

Client Satisfaction Survey In February 2004, NSP unveiled a new qualitativeevaluation measure in the form of the ClientSatisfaction Survey. The survey is administered toclients after their third meeting.

Local Office Strategic PlanningThe National Office implemented a comprehensivelocal office strategic planning process in order topress office growth from year-to-year.

These relationships result in a long-term and lasting impact on both ourclients and our student volunteers.
