LANSING – The Michigan Community Service Commission is encouraging Michiganders to volunteer during April, National Volunteer Month.
To support volunteers, The Michigan Community Service Commission today announced it will fund 58 Global Youth Service Day volunteer projects engaging nearly 5,000 volunteers who will serve to benefit Michigan communities. Projects include providing child-size masks to youth, planting community gardens and meeting other community needs.
“It is really important that young people contribute to the community they live in. Volunteering helps foster a lifelong passion for helping others,” Lt. Governor Garlin Gilchrist II said. “Global Youth Service Day is a great time to celebrate youth who are not only serving, but leading volunteer efforts and using their voice to support community needs.”

The city of Austin will host three community engagement meetings on its commitment to implement policy and cultural changes to address the disproportionate impact of police interactions that result in violence against people of color and other affected communities.
Meetings will begin at 11 a.m. Saturday and Jan. 23 and at 5:30 p.m. Jan. 28. The Saturday meeting will be conducted in Spanish with English interpretation, and the following two meetings will be in English with Spanish interpretation available.
These citywide conversations build on the series of council district sessions that began in the fall. Comprehensive community engagement, which allows residents several opportunities to learn more about and share their thoughts and ideas about public safety reform, is a key element of the Reimagining Public Safety Initiative.
