Children, their families, and the entire community benefit dramatically from having easily accessible quality after school programs, Data from a national study of after school programs by the Nellie Mae Foundation indicate that middle school children who spend three or more hours home alone during out of school time are significantly more likely to use drugs or alcohol, have high levels of stress and anger, experience more depression and behavioral problems, possess a lower self-esteem and perform poorly academically. The information from this study clearly points out the fact that a child's participation in a quality after school program not only benefits each child and the immediate family, but the entire community, At the end of each school day, nearly 1,300 children from the Marathon area will leave the safety of their classrooms. Some will go home to a parent, some will go to an extracurricular activity and some will go to work. But many children will go it alone, Lacking adult supervision or access to an after school program, these children will be in danger. We know from various studies and statistics that the rate of juvenile-related crime actually doubles during the after school hours, This period of time is when a youth is most likely to commit a sexual assault, become involved in substance abuse, sexual activities or crime, The Boys and Girls Club fills that void and reduces the risk of criminal and antisocial behaviors by offering positive after school programming for children. In addition, due to the high cost of living and the lack of affordable housing in Marathon and throughout Monroe County, most parents are forced to work two jobs, This results in a tremendous number of latch-key children being left with little or no adult supervision during the critical after school hours, school holidays, and vacations, While these young people seem particularly vulnerable, statistics and experience make it crystal clear that all children are at risk in the after school hours if left unsupervised, The problem transcends demographics, Too many children today grow up with few, if any, positive role models and little, if any, encouragement to resist alcohol, tobacco, other drugs, delinquent acts, or sexual activity, The norm and expectation for these young people, whether perceived or real, is that it is almost a "rite of passage" to partiCipate in these destructive and often dangerous behaviors or actions, Not only is this the perception of young people themselves, but often the perception of the adults in their lives whose passive Application Ref # Contract 2006-JAGC-120 2006-JAGC-MONR-4-M8_ Section #2 Page 1 of 6 Application for Funding Assistance Florida Department of Law Enforcement Justice Assistance Grant - County-wide Problem Identification (Continued) resignation encourages rather than discourages these behaviors. While young people are often taught skills to prepare them to face educational challenges, at critical stages of psychological, emotional, and intellectual development, they are often not taught the skills needed to make the successful transition from childhood to adulthood and to resist engaging in delinquent behaviors, premature sexual activity, or experimenting with drugs and alcohol. The Boys and Girls Club is committed to offering positive after school programs for youth in the community that address the issues of tobacco, alcohol, drugs premature sexual activity, violence, STD'S, gang activity, and healthy life skills, Needs Assessment. The Boys and Girls Club of the Keys Area currently provides services to over 120 children each day in its after school programs and over 160 children over the summer, Over 50% of these children are from single parent homes or from homes where there is history of domestic violence or substance abuse, Over ninety percent are from families with living at or below the Monroe County Poverty Level index, Currently, all children who attend any of the Boys and Girls Club receive financial assistance, This assistance is either from subsidized child care from the state of Florida, assistance from the Department of Children and Families or from a Boys and Girls Club scholarship. Families, especially single-parent families, cannot meet the needs of adolescents alone, Developmentally, adolescents need increased involvement with peers and adults other than their parents, In addition, young people must master new skills while experimenting with adult roles, While relationships with parents and families remain fundamental, the staff members of the Boys and Girls Club of the Keys Area can have a powerful, positive influence on the lives of young participants by providing additional continuity, direction, support and guidance, Emotional support is a vital source of affirmation. It is the addition of high expectations that motivates young people to excel. Research has consistently shown that young people benefit when they are asked to abide by clear rules and standards and when they are guided and monitored. Structure and predictability are critical elements that young people crave, The positive peer pressure and reinforcement of positive behavior developed with in the Boys and Girls Clubs of the Keys Area has and will continue to have a powerful impact on participant's choices and decisions Application Ref # Contract 2006-JAGC-120 2006-JAGC-MONR-4-M8- Section #2 Page 2 of 6 Application for Funding Assistanc_e Florida Department of Law Enforcement Justice Assistance Grant - County-wide Project Summary Project Summary With the guidance of caring adults, who mentor and empower them, members develop essential character traits including responsibility, respect for self and others, trustworthiness, fairness and caring - as they learn positive leadership skills that help them influence others in positive ways. Education and career development activities are designed to give young people the sense that they can do something well and have individual worth, Career exploration, discussing and debating important social issues, such as gang awareness, drug use and prevention, teenage pregnancy, STD'S, nutrition, and child abuse prevention offer constructive and ongoing dialogue. Health and fitness playa vital role in the Club which fosters and encourages healthy physical development, team building skills and other important life skills, Through recreational activities, Club members have fun and acquire self-confidence, a sense of fair play and skills in interpersonal relationships, These are the goals of Club related activities and programs: Our goal and commitment over the next funding cycle is to continue and enhance our efforts with our SMART Moves preventive programs by implementing this program in our Club in Marathon, These preventive programs are age specific and designed to encourage collaboration, interaction, support and education among Club staff, youth, parents and community service providers, The goals of each of these programs are to develop a positive concept of self worth; development of leadership skills; build resiliency; peer support and enhance each child's abilities to make positive decisions, to think before acting and to be proactive to situations rather than reactive, These year round programs are designed to educate and assist young people to resist alcohol, tobacco, substance abuse, delinquent behavior, gang involvement and premature sexual behaviors, The SMART Moves program serves as the foundation for SMART Parents; SMART Girls; Passport to Manhood, Act Smart and Street Smart, The short term goal would be to establish a Boys and Girls Club in Marathon and to begin to offer an array of preventive, academic, and recreational programming to the youth of that community, Long term goals would be to continue to expand the number of youth we serve, days we are open as well as doing some community outreach, The service provider agency will be the Boys and Girls Clubs of the Keys Area; its administrative location is 1400 United Street, Suite 108, Key West, FL 33040 The relationship of the County to the service provider will be contractual.
