DESIGNING AND OPERATING NATURAL VACUUM SAP COLLECTION SYSTEMS A USER MANUAL FOR 316INCH DIAMETER TUBING WILL RESEARCH CREATE AND TEST A USERS MANUAL SPECIFIC TO NATURAL VACUUM SAP COLLECTION SYSTEMS. FUTURE GENERATIONS UNIVERSITY AND ITS PARTNERS WILL THEN CONDUCT AN EXTENSION PROGRAM IN THE USE OF THE MANUAL. THE PURPOSE IS TO CREATE THE MUCHNEEDED NATURAL VACUUM COROLLARY TO THE CORNELL UNIVERSITY NEW YORK STATE TUBING NOTEBOOK WHICH PRIMARILY ADDRESSES 516INCH TUBING SYSTEMS USING ARTIFICIAL VACUUM. FUTURE GENERATIONS UNIVERSITY WILL WORK WITH BOTH WEST VIRGINIA UNIVERSITY AND WEST VIRGINIA STATE UNIVERSITY TO CONDUCT THE NEEDED TECHNICAL AND FIELD RESEARCH TO TEST AND WRITE THIS BEST PRACTICE MANUAL. RESEARCH WILL BE CONDUCTED ON THE ENGINEERING OF NATURAL AND HYBRID VACUUM SYSTEMS UTILIZING 316INCH TUBING. SANITATION STUDIES WILL ALSO BE CONDUCTED ON 316INCH TUBING TO DETERMINE EFFECTIVE PRACTICES FOR PRESERVING TUBING LONGEVITY. LASTLY LABBASED ANALYSIS ON MICROBIAL GROWTH WILL BE USED TO TEST AND VALIDATE FIELDBASED SANITATION STUDIES. EXTENSION OF RESEARCH FINDINGS WILL REACH APPROXIMATELY 500 MAPLE SYRUP PRODUCERS WHO ARE USING NATURAL VACUUM SAP COLLECTION SYSTEMS IN MOUNTAINOUS REGIONS OF APPALACHIA AND NEW ENGLAND. INDIVIDUAL STUDY RESEARCH REPORTS WILL BE PRESENTED AT REGIONAL AND NATIONAL GATHERINGS OF MAPLE SYRUP RESEARCHERS AND PRODUCERS THROUGHOUT THE PROJECT PERIOD. DURING THE FINAL YEAR OF THE PROJECT EDUCATION ACTIVITIES WILL CENTER ON INCREASING ADOPTION AND USE OF THE NATURAL VACUUM MANUAL THROUGH REGIONAL WORKSHOPS AND NATIONAL ONLINE EXTENSION. APPROXIMATELY 250 PRODUCERS IN WEST VIRGINIA MARYLAND VIRGINIA AND PENNSYLVANIA ARE EXPECTED TO ADOPT IMPROVED TUBING AND SANITATION METHODS.

THIS PROJECT WILL UTILIZE EXISTING RESOURCES TO DESIGN TEST AND IMPLEMENT AN INTEGRATED MAPLE SAP AND SYRUP TRAINING PROGRAM FOR PREK12 STUDENTS AND EDUCATORS. IT WILL CREATE THE RESOURCES NEEDED TO SUPPORT THE GROWTH OF THE NEXT GENERATION OF SYRUP PRODUCERS AND FORESTRY SERVICE PROFESSIONALS. INITIAL ACTIVITIES WILL BE IMPLEMENTED AND TESTED ACROSS WEST VIRGINIA MARYLAND KENTUCKY AND VIRGINIA. A STANDARDIZED MAPLE CURRICULUM FOR PREK12 STUDENTS WILL BE CREATED. THE PROJECT TEAM WILL THEN WORK WITH EDUCATORS ACROSS APPALACHIA TO TEST AND REFINE THE CURRICULUM. IN PARALLEL A SYRUP IN SCHOOL RESOURCE GUIDEBOOK FOR EXISTING MAPLE PRODUCERS AND LANDOWNERS TO ENGAGE THEIR LOCAL SCHOOLS AND COMMUNITIES WILL ALSO BE CREATED. FINALIZED CURRICULA AND EDUCATIONAL RESOURCES WILL THEN BE DISSEMINATED ACROSS SYRUP PRODUCING STATES. SWEET ECONOMIC FUTURES WILL DIRECTLY ADDRESS THE FACT THAT THE U.S. MAPLE INDUSTRY CURRENTLY LACKS A COMPREHENSIVE CURRICULUM FOR PREK12 AGED STUDENTS. MANY LOCALIZED EFFORTS TO ENGAGE KIDS WITH MAPLE HAVE BEEN STARTED. THESE HAVE BEEN DEVELOPED OUTSIDE OF STATE OR NATIONAL LEARNING STANDARDS. SWEET ECONOMIC FUTURES WILL THEREFORE BUILD UPON THESE EXISTING EFFORTS AND RESOURCES. IT WILL DO SO BY UTILIZING EXISTING BEST PRACTICES WHILE ALSO ADDING INCREASED ACADEMIC RIGOR AND TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE TO EDUCATORS AND MAPLE PRODUCERS. THIS PROJECT WILL BRING TOGETHER STATE DEPARTMENTS OF AGRICULTURE EDUCATION AND FORESTRY INTO DIRECT COLLABORATION WITH LOCAL SCHOOLS AND NONPROFIT ORGANIZATIONS TO ADVANCE THE NEXT GENERATION OF SYRUP PRODUCERS ACROSS THE UNITED STATES.

THIS MARKET DEVELOPMENT AND PROMOTION PROJECT WILL DIRECTLY SUPPORT THE US MAPLE INDUSTRY BY INCREASING THE DEMAND FOR LOCAL AND REGIONAL MAPLE SYRUP PRODUCTION IN APPALACHIA. IT WILL INCREASE ACCESS TO MAPLE PRODUCTS, BY SUPPORTING MARKET OPPORTUNITIES FOR APPALACHIAN PRODUCERS. IT WILL PROMOTE THE US MAPLE SYRUP INDUSTRY BY SHOWCASING THE ROLE OF SUGAR-MAKING IN APPALACHIAN CULTURE, ECOLOGY, AND HISTORY. IT WILL IMPROVE CONSUMER DEMAND FOR APPALACHIAN AS WELL AS US MADE MAPLE SAP AND SYRUP PRODUCTS. SWEET APPALACHIA HAS TWO MAIN OBJECTIVES:1) RAISE PUBLIC AWARENESS OF DOMESTIC MAPLE SYRUP THROUGH INCREASED MARKETING, PROMOTION, STORYTELLING, AND ENHANCING AGRITOURISM EFFORTS.2) CREATE NEW MARKET ACCESS OPPORTUNITIES FOR APPALACHIAN MAPLE SYRUP PRODUCERS THROUGH DIRECT-TO-CONSUMER MARKETING AS WELL AS BROKERING BULK AND WHOLESALE SYRUP SALES ACROSS THE REGION. THIS PROJECT WORKS WITH PRODUCERS AND COMMUNITIES TO CREATE THE ENABLING ENVIRONMENT FOR AN INCREASE IN SALES OF APPALACHIAN-PRODUCED SYRUP AND VALUE-ADDED PRODUCTS WITHIN THE CENTRAL APPALACHIAN REGION DEFINED AS WESTERN MARYLAND, APPALACHIAN VIRGINIA, WEST VIRGINIA, AND EASTERN KENTUCKY. THIS PROJECT WILL WORK WITH 100 PRODUCERS AND 60 COMMUNITIES TO BUILD THE NETWORK OF SUPPORT REQUIRED FOR SUSTAINABLE ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT.

ENRICHING MAPLE IN APPALACHIA WILL WORK ACROSS MARYLAND, VIRGINIA, AND WEST VIRGINIA TO PROMOTE RESEARCH, EDUCATION, AND NATURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT TO ADVANCE PROFITABLE MAPLE ENTERPRISES. APPALACHIAN PRODUCERS AND LANDOWNERS WILL BE PROVIDED WITH PRACTICAL EDUCATION THAT IMPROVES PRODUCTION AND PROFITABILITY. BUSINESS AND FINANCIAL SKILLS WILL BE INTEGRATED WITH TECHNICAL TRAINING AND LAND USE MANAGEMENT PLANNING. APPALACHIAN MAPLE SYRUP PRODUCTION WILL INCREASE AS A RESULT. WOODLOT MANAGEMENT PRACTICES AND BEHAVIORS WILL IMPROVE. MAPLE ENTERPRISES WILL BECOME MORE FINANCIALLY VIABLE.

MISSION: GENERATIONS INCORPORATED (GI) IMPROVES THE LITERACY SKILLS OF YOUNG CHILDREN THROUGH GRADE 3 BY ENGAGING PROFESSIONALLY TRAINED OLDER ADULT VOLUNTEERS AS LITERACY COACHES IN OUR PARTNER SCHOOLS AND AFTER-SCHOOL PROGRAMS. WE SERVE COMMUNITIES WHERE OPPORTUNITY GAPS EXIST TO ENSURE ALL STUDENTS HAVE THE RESOURCES TO BECOME LITERACY PROFICIENT. WE ARE THE LEADING INTERGENERATIONAL LITERACY PROGRAM IN GREATER BOSTON, ENGAGING 240+ COMMUNITY OLDER ADULTS (ALL 50+ YEARS) AS HIGHLY TRAINED LITERACY COACHES TO PROVIDE TARGETED, HIGH-DOSAGE TUTORING TO OVER 1,500 STRUGGLING EARLY READERS ANNUALLY. WE ENVISION A DAY WHEN ALL STUDENTS, REGARDLESS OF ZIP CODE, ENTER THE FOURTH GRADE AS PROFICIENT READERS POISED FOR ACADEMIC SUCCESS, AND EMPLOY A UNIQUE INTERGENERATIONAL MODEL TO SOLVE THE COMMUNITY PROBLEM OF CHILDHOOD ILLITERACY. EACH YEAR, GI RECRUITS COMMUNITY OLDER ADULTS SEEKING MEANINGFUL COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT AND PROVIDES THE TRAINING NECESSARY TO SERVE AS LITERACY TUTORS IN THEIR ENCORE CAREERS. VOLUNTEERS DEDICATE 5-15 HOURS EACH WEEK TO SUPPORTING STUDENTS WHO ARE READING BELOW GRADE-LEVEL THROUGH STRUCTURED AND HIGHLY FOCUSED LITERACY SESSIONS. OUR OLDER ADULT VOLUNTEERS BENEFIT FROM ADDITIONAL ENGAGEMENT, ACTIVITY AND SOCIAL INTERACTION THROUGH THEIR SERVICE, AND STUDENTS SHOW STRONG LITERACY GAINS AND SOCIAL-EMOTIONAL GROWTH AS A RESULT OF PARTICIPATING IN OUR PROGRAMS OVER THE COURSE OF A SCHOOL YEAR. IN 2016, GI SUCCESSFULLY CONCLUDED A RIGOROUS, THREE-YEAR STRATEGIC PLAN, WHICH SHARPENED THE FOCUS OF OUR PROGRAMS TO ALIGN WITH BOSTON AND REVERE PUBLIC SCHOOLS' CURRICULA, MEET SPECIFIC LITERACY NEEDS IDENTIFIED WITHIN OUR SERVICE COMMUNITIES, AND FORTIFY OUR VOLUNTEER TRAINING PRACTICES TO IMPROVE EFFICIENCY AND IMPACT OF PROGRAM DELIVERY. FOLLOWING THE SUCCESSFUL CONCLUSION OF A STRATEGIC PLAN IN 2016, GI WAS ONE OF SEVEN ORGANIZATIONS NATIONWIDE AWARDED A HIGHLY COMPETITIVE SOCIAL INNOVATION FUND (SIF) SUB-GRANT THROUGH AARP FOUNDATION EXPERIENCE CORPS. THROUGH THE FOUR-YEAR SIF PROJECT, GI CONTINUED TO FINE-TUNE OUR PROGRAM MODEL WHILE EXPANDING TO SERVE SIX NEW PARTNER BOSTON AND REVERE PUBLIC SCHOOLS. IN 2017, GI WAS SELECTED BY BOSTON PUBLIC SCHOOLS AS ONE OF 60 OPPORTUNITY PORTFOLIO PARTNERS IMPROVING EDUCATIONAL EQUITY ACROSS THE DISTRICT. TODAY, WE ARE THE ONLY ORGANIZATION COLLABORATING WITH THE BOSTON AND REVERE PUBLIC SCHOOLS TO PROVIDE INTENTIONAL, STRUCTURED, HIGH-DOSAGE LITERACY SUPPORT TO GREATER BOSTON'S YOUNGEST STUDENTS. IN FALL 2019, WE WILL LAUNCH A THREE-YEAR STRATEGIC PLAN, WHICH WILL LAY THE FOUNDATION FOR SIGNIFICANT PROGRAM GROWTH TO A NEW SCHOOL DISTRICT WITHIN THE GREATER BOSTON REGION WHILE CONTINUING TO DEEPEN OUR COMMITMENT WITHIN BOSTON AND REVERE, MASSACHUSETTS. AS A DATA-DRIVEN ORGANIZATION, WE CONTINUOUSLY SEEK EVIDENCE OF OUR PROGRAMS' EFFICACY THROUGH INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL ANALYSIS. A 2009 WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY STUDY OF OUR 1:1 TUTORING MODEL FOUND THAT STUDENTS SHOWED 60% MORE IMPROVEMENT IN KEY LITERACY SKILLS THAN NON-PARTICIPATING STUDENTS. VOLUNTEERS SHOWED SIGNIFICANT DECREASES IN DEPRESSION AND FUNCTIONAL LIMITATIONS. THROUGH THE SIF PROJECT, GI ALSO PARTICIPATED IN A RIGOROUS RANDOM CONTROL TRIAL EVALUATING THE IMPACT OF OUR PROGRAM'S SMALL GROUP TUTORING MODEL. RESULTS OF THE STUDY WILL BE AVAILABLE IN JANUARY 2020. IMPACTING CHILDREN'S LITERACY DEVELOPMENT DEMANDS MORE THAN A WELL-INTENTIONED EFFORT; IT TAKES A COMMITMENT TO STRATEGIC ANALYSIS, A DEDICATION TO REFINEMENT AND IMPROVEMENT, AND AN UNWAVERING WILLINGNESS TO STOP WHAT'S NOT WORKING. GENERATIONS INCORPORATED DOES JUST THAT. THEY HOLD THEMSELVES ACCOUNTABLE TO THE HIGHEST STANDARDS AND A CYCLE OF CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT TO ENSURE THEIR PROGRAMS RESULT IN THEIR INTENDED OUTCOMES, BOTH FOR THE ENGAGED VOLUNTEERS AND FOR THOSE CHILDREN THEY SUPPORT. -- KELLY KULSRUD, LECTIO INSTITUTE

IN A RIGOROUS 2009 WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY STUDY OF OUR PROGRAM, STUDENTS SHOWED 60% MORE IMPROVEMENT IN KEY LITERACY SKILLS THAN NONPARTICIPATING STUDENTS. VOLUNTEERS SHOWED SIGNIFICANT DECREASES IN DEPRESSION AND FUNCTIONAL LIMITATIONS. ALSO, WE ARE LEADERS IN RECRUITING, TRAINING, AND MANAGING OLDER ADULT VOLUNTEERS. SINCE 1998, WE HAVE BEEN AN AFFILIATE OF THE NATIONAL AWARD-WINNING AARP EXPERIENCE CORPS PROGRAM. WE NOW RUN ONE OF THE LARGEST AND MOST EFFECTIVE AARP EXPERIENCE CORPS PROGRAMS IN THE NATION. IN 2012, WE UNDERWENT A RIGOROUS SIX-MONTH STRATEGIC PLANNING PROCESS, WITH HELP FROM THE BRIDGESPAN GROUP. IN 2013, WE BEGAN TO IMPLEMENT IN THREE-YEAR READ TO SUCCEED STRATEGIC BUSINESS PLAN, WHICH WILL SEE OUR ORGANIZATION SHIFT ITS FOCUS TO PROVIDING IMPROVED EARLY LITERACY SUPPORT TO MORE KINDERGARTEN AND FIRST GRADE STUDENTS. RESEARCH POINTS TO THE CLEAR NEED TO START INTERVENTIONS EARLIER TO GET STUDENTS ON THE PATH TO ACADEMIC SUCCESS. WE BELIEVE THAT STRONG, CARING RELATIONSHIPS EARLY IN A CHILD'S LIFE CAN CHANGE THE DOWNWARD SPIRAL OF ILLITERACY. STUDENTS IN OUR PROGRAMS GAIN BETTER LITERACY SKILLS THAN STUDENTS WITHOUT THE ADDITIONAL HELP OF AN AARP EXPERIENCE CORPS TUTOR. "THE GENERATIONS PROGRAM IS A VALUABLE RESOURCE TO SUPPORT STUDENT ACHIEVEMENT. BY PROVIDING ALTERNATIVE READING AS WELL AS READING STRATEGIES THAT COMPLEMENT CLASSROOM ACTIVITY, STUDENTS ARE GIVEN ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES AS WELL AS TIME TO DEVELOP THEIR READING SKILLS."-STERLING SCOTT, 1ST GRADE TEACHER, BLACKSTONE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, SOUTH END
