Keeping track of monthly activities

AmeriCorps programs require online monthly service reports. To make it easy to fulfill this requirement:

1. Look at the performance measures required in your grant
2. Figure out what activities you need to measure
3. Build your member activity logs so they reflect the performance measures
4. Combine members' data to write your report

This sample log tracks specific grant activities, member development, and other activities that show how members are involved in the community. During orientation, members learn how to fill out the form.

The log, in an Excel spreadsheet, was created by Illinois Public Health AmeriCorps (Springfield, IL), an AmeriCorps*State program that supports health and community preparedness projects and conducts community outreach across the state.
