To: Monroe County Board of Commissioners
From: Boys and Girls Club Board of Directors
Date: January 20, 2000
Re: Program expansion in Upper Keys
Dear Board of Commissioners,
At this time we wish to inform you of our commitment to re-introdll(;e youth
programs in the Upper Keys, specifically Key Largo. The board and administration of the
Boys and Girls Club of the Keys is in support of offering County wide programs open to
all the youth in Monroe County.
As you know, the Boys and Girls Club was nearly forced to close its doors last
summer, yet thanks to community and government support from entities such as Monroe
County Board of Commissioners, we once again have strong and effective programs in
Key West and the funds needed to maintain a balanced budget.
As we have said, we are committed to re-opening a Key Largo site in the near
future, but we need to ensure that our organization can support this growth both
financially and in terms of staff and board development.
As our next step, we are currently looking at sites in the Key Largo area to begin
offering ARTWORKS, a teen art program targeting at-risk youth, and lor youth who are
already involved in Department of Juvenile Justice or Juvenile Drug Court. This program
is now being offered in Key West in conjunction with 16th Judicial Drug Court and
Monroe Council of the Arts with good success. , ,
Secondly, we will soon be offering after-school tutoring with Key Largo
Elementary through the Children's Homeless Intervention Project. We are making the
appropriate school contacts and have already begun recruiting tutors and eligible youth
from the area for the program. This program is offered in conjunction with Monroe
County Schools and the Department of Education
We anticipate these programs to grow and expand to several sites in the Keys, and
hope to use this as a starting point in working with the Key Largo community to re-open a
Boys and Girls Club. Our goal is to be able, as an organization, to respond to the needs of
the youth and families of Monroe County and to continue to provide educational and
recreational opportunities that will result future academic and life success for the many
youth of Monroe County who are now at-risk.
Weare requesting access to the portion of our 1999-2000 allocation for Key West
only, until such time we can draw funding for Upper Keys programs as they become
viable. We thank you for your continued support in our mission to improve the lives of
Keys youth.
