Summer of Safety Accomplishments
50 Reasons Why the Corporation for National Service Can Be Proud
of Its First Corporation-Wide, National Program
The following list reports part of what the 1994 Summer of Safety Program got done in
American communities. These outcomes resulted from the combined effort of more than 7,000

from end-of-summer reports from the local programs' directors, following strict procedures laid
down by the Corporation. Many items on this list have been confirmed by CNS program officers
and researchers. While some items have not been verified, our experience from the summer
programs in 1993 and reports this year tell us that, if anything, local programs under estimate
what they achieve.

will run a AmeriCorps program that will combine a socio-economic mix of youth committed to
DYTR, youth under the jurisdiction of the juvenile court, local high school students, and
Arizona State University students in conservation work on the Tonto and other national forests.
The AmeriCorps participants will then work a larger group of younger at-risk youth to supervise
their volunteer activities in environmental restoration work and in restoring safety to public
spaces. The project will have the following goals: rehabilitating delinquent youth; creating
safer environments in at-risk neighborhoods, providing conflict resolution instruction for a
diverse group of delinquent, at-risk, and college attending youth; providing mentoring and pro-
social modeling of delinquent and at-risk youth; and engaging youth in productive conservation
work on national forests and environmental work in urban areas; creating and nurturing
community leadership and service skills; and building a continuing partnership where college
students tutor delinquent youth. This project will incorporate youth-as resources programs,
restoring safety to public spaces, and youth safety initiatives.

Dear Dr. Schneider:
I am pleased to write a letter in support of your proposal to the U.S.
Department of Education's Urban Community Service Program which
demonstrates a collaboration with the Arizona Department of Youth
Treatment & Rehabilitation.
I understand that your proposal involves the design and implementation of a
prototype multi-purpose community support program and facility for serious
juvenile offenders. This is a critically needed component in Arizona's
continuum of services for juvenile offenders. Youth who have successfully
completed the individualized treatment program within DYTR's secure
facility are frequently left without ongoing, intensive, community based
treatment. Your success with this proposal will fill this critical need.
The partnership with DYTR will provide a myriad of educational
opportunities for ASU graduate and undergraduate students as well as
faculty. These opportunities include service learning, community service,
internships, research apprenticeships, theses and dissertations. The research
opportunities are abundant for faculty. This research would benefit the
profession, not only in Arizona, but across the nation.
I offer support for this project and wish you success.

Dear Anne and John:
I am pleased for several reasons to learn that the DYTR/ASU
Partnership is seeking funding through the Urban Community
Service Program.
The Partnership has the potential to provide quality educational
opportunities for both delinquent youth and university students.
Having received a graduate degree in counseling from ASU, I can
attest to the need for such opportunities in the academic
community. Having served as Director of the Governor's Task
Force on Juvenile Corrections for three and a half years, I can
also attest to the need for such opportunities for Arizona's
committed youth.
The Partnership represents a critical shift in the way Arizona
government, especially corrections, has traditionally done
business. Corrections has historically been entrenched -
operating in secrecy whenever possible. It was this approach
that led to serious abuses of youth and a class action lawsuit.
It is of tremendous significance that DYTR is actually inviting
and encouraging this kind of partnership.
The Partnership also represents a recognition of the fact that
delinquency is a community problem and that, as a result, the
solutions must come from the community. The research has long
supported this fact, but policy-makers have been slow indeed to
recognize this and respond.
For all of these reasons and more, I wish the Partnership
success. It could serve as a shining example to other
communities that are faced with the same challenges. Please let
me know if I can be of assistance in your efforts.
Sincerely,
- am Christian

Director, DYTR
Dear Dean Schneider and Mr. Arredondo,
I have read with interest and growing enthusiasm the
materials provided me regarding the DYTR/ASU Partnership, and
would like to voice my wholehearted support for your
application to the United States Department of Education for
an Urban Community Service Program grant.
As you know, I have served for the past two years as chairman
of the Governor's Task Force on Juvenile Corrections, and
have seen first hand the critical need for a continuum of
care and rehabilitative services for Arizona's troubled
youth. I have also observed the scarcity of staff
specifically trained to deal with young people. Although
there is a concerted effort to alter this balance, the
preponderance of staff would seem to be people long imbued
with the adult corrections mindset.
The DYTR/ASU Partnership directly addresses both of these
concerns. A bridge will be provided to assure that youth
with a tenuous hold on the straight and narrow will not be
sent directly back to the situation that bred their troubles.
The students and interns at ASU will have an opportunity to
work with a population that will, for good or ill, be a major
factor in Arizona's future.
I believe that the blending of public and private resources,
the cooperation and colaboration of government staff and
university teaching and support staff exemplify the kind of
cross disciplinary action that is required if we are to make
a dent in the trend toward crime and violence in the
community.
You have my enthusiastic support for your program and for
your grant application. If there is any way in which I can
be of service during this process, or to this program, please
do not hesitate to call upon me.

Dear Dean Schneider:
I write in support of the proposal being submitted by the
Department of Youth Treatment and Rehabilitation and Arizona
State University Partnership for an Urban Community Service
Project designed to promote the successful transition of youthful
offenders from secure facilities to their families and
communities. In Arizona and across the United States there is a
critical need for community-based programs that assist troubled
youths in becoming productive members of their communities.
The DYTR/ASU Partnership serves not only troubled youths, their
families and communities, but also engages the talents of ASU
graduates and undergraduates from a number of different fields to
become actively involved as interns and researchers. The
proposed Urban Community Service Program Grant will provide
resources for staff training and technical assistance, and will
ensure that the project is evaluated effectively.
I strongly endorse your application to the U.S. Department of

further assistance.

Dear Dean Schneider and Mr. Arredondo,
One of the most critical social problems that faces
us today is juvenile violence. The rapid escalation
of this problem is affecting almost every community in our
country. Over the past year and a half, Arizona has attempted
to address this problem by instituting innovative and pro-
mising treatment and rehabilitation programs to its juvenile
corrections system. The task of reaching many of the young
offenders who threaten our very way of life has begun and
shows promise of success.
The institutional changes that have taken place so
far, however, are not sufficient. Programs must also be
instituted that address the issues of effective transitional
programming back to the community and to families of origin.
The DYTR/ASU partnership program holds enormous promise
in that area. Not only does it bring the vast resources
of Arizona' largest University to the arena of juvenile
corrections, but it also offers university faculty and
students the opportunity to work within the communities
that are in need of support. This type of partnership is
essential if we are to impact the lives of troubled youth
and rebuild the community support systems that are currently
so disfunctional.
I have been professionally involved in the field of
corrections for over 45 years, and am currently employed
as a Special Master to United States District Courts on
prison and juvenile corrections litigation. The DYTR/ASU
partnership program appears to be a constructive way to
use limited resources in a positive and responsible manner.

AS someone who travels this Country and knows juvenile justice
systems nationally probably as well as anyone in the field today
I can certainly lend my complete support to the DYTR/Arizona State
partnerships application to the Department of Education for grant
funds to assist in the continued treatment and rehabilitation of
Arizona's troubled youth.
The Department of Youth Treatment and Rehabilitation/Arizona State
University Partnership is one of the most exciting, innovative and
promising developments that I have encountered in many years. The
combining of these two governmental entities offers Arizona a real
opportunity to impact youth violence and to make a difference in
the lives of troubled youth.
I am hopeful the United States Department of Education will
recognize the great strides already made in Arizona, the promise
of the current system and provide additional funds to the
Partnership to address the most pressing social issue in America
today.
If I can respond to additional inquiries I would be most happy to
do so.

Dear Dean Schneider:
The State of Arizona currently represents, to the rest of the
juvenile justice community nationally, what vision, leadership,
commitment, energy and cooperation can accomplish.
Just a few short years ago Arizona was reeling in the aftermath of
a lawsuit challenging conditions of confinement within its state-
operated training schools. Currently, The Department of Youth
Treatment and Rehabilitation is viewed as probably the most
progressive youth corrections system in the Country.
The Department of Youth Treatment and Rehabilitation/Arizona State
University Partnership is perhaps the best example of the
cooperation, leadership and vision which is embodied within the
Arizona system. I am very aware of other states that have
attempted such partnerships and have failed. Your success within
this partnership is not only important to Arizona but, in my
opinion, critical to juvenile justice issues nationally.
There is no issue more critical to all of us than youth violence.
We have become as country afraid of our own children. The escalation
of youth violence, and the explosion of youth gangs not only
presents an unprecedented challenge to our corrections systems but
threaten our very way of life.

Dear Dean Schneider:
The purpose of this letter is to acknowledge the support of the Phoenix Police
Department regarding the efforts of Arizona State University to acquire a grant
for the Urban Community Service Program from the United States Department of
Education.
The proposal of planned service through the Department of Youth Treatment and
Rehabilitation/Arizona State Partnership offers selected troubled youth with
focused support and rehabilitation opportunities at a critical period in their
development.
It has been our experience with juveniles not having adequate role models,
mentors, and personal attention that they seek to acquire such association
through unconventional means, many of which result in criminal conduct. Through
a series of events they are pulled away, expelled or excluded from those positive
experiences which are replaced by inappropriate educational and social
interactions that lead to personal and community disruption and incarceration.
Frequently those who could change their behavior are not given the opportunity to
do so because of the limited number of assistance programs addressing
educational, family and localized community disadvantages.
We support the substantial objectives of this program proposal and strongly urge
the consideration of grant funding being provided.

Dear Dean Schneider:
It is with the greatest of pleasure that I write this letter of support for your
efforts to work with the Department of Youth Treatment and Rehabilitation to
seek funding to provide for a program that will facilitate transition to the
community from the secure facilities of the Department of Youth Treatment and
Rehabilitation to independent living. I am especially sensitive to the need for
such a transitional intervention to take place.
I have recently called for a task force to address the issue of Violence in
the Public Schools. One of the key elements that they have focused on is the
failure of Arizona schools and society to provide alternative placement for
students who are not successful in living within the confines of the school
structure. This proposal would address one aspect of that failure: transition
from a treatment facility back to society and school.
I believe that equally important in the proposal is the use of graduate and
undergraduate students in working with this transition. The reality that they
face in working with this group of students will help prepare them for their
future in cities, schools and society.
You have my full support for a very promising proposal.

years, a great number of young men and women fall into the

quicksand/circle trap of under-education and under-employment.
Mayor
The frustration that comes with low self esteem and low wages
leads to a poor family life, with little or no positive

involvement in our community. It is logical that crime is

sometimes seen as the only way out for these youth, who feel
they have little or nothing to lose. This is an unpleasant
Dennis J. Cahill
circle that all too often is passed down within families, as
Councilman
just "the way life is". It is my own "blue collar" background
that made me want to become involved in government, and
Don Cassano
hopefully help others from this segment of society become more
Councilman
productive and involved in our community in a positive way.
Joseph Lewis
I strongly support the program that you propose for a
Councilman
collaboration between Arizona State University and the Arizona
Department of Youth Treatment and Rehabilitation. Education,
Frank B. Plencner
for both the youth offenders and families, in conjunction with
Councilman
furthering understanding and education of university students
is, I believe, an effective way to break the circle. It is
Carol E. Smith
only when there is better understanding between the different
Councilman
segments of our society that growth can occur. A program of
this nature would not only help the individuals directly
associated, but also the community as a whole. Such a endeavor
will act to bring the university community into a closer
working relationship with the citizens of Tempe, and the
greater valley.
AS a businessman and taxpayer, as well as elected official, I
am well aware of the economic benefits of education verses
further juvenile incarceration and the continuation of the
cycle. Again, this interaction will benefit both communities
in countless ways, and in the end will be extremely cost
effective. Please feel free to call on me to give whatever
assistance I can for this project.

These youth need community support to be able to achieve

RE: Department of Youth Treatment and Rehabilitation/Arizona State University Partnership
Dear Dean Schneider:
It is with pleasure that I write to support your application for financial assistance to
address the problems facing youthful offenders and their families in our urban communities.
I recently appointed a commission to study the juvenile justice system and design
strategies that would strike a balance between the need for treatment and rehabilitation on the
one hand and public safety on the other. We have talked to people who work for the system
and to children who are in the system. Access to educational opportunities and community-
based programs that reintegrate youth with their families and society has emerged as a
leading indicator for a child's success as a productive citizen.
I encourage the Urban Community Service Program to provide the funding necessary
to support your vision. If I or the commission can assist, feel free to contact us.
Yours truly,
Stanley G. Feldman

Dear Mr. Secretary:
I am writing to you on behalf of the Department of Youth Treatment and
Rehabilitation (DYTR)/ Arizona State University (ASU) Partnership and an application it
will soon submit to the Department of Education for the Urban Community Service
Program.
As you are undoubtedly aware, youth crime and violence is one of the highest
priorities of the nation. The cooperative effort between DYTR and ASU aims to create and
implement a community support program and facility for serious youthful offenders and their
families in the Phoenix metropolitan area. The funds from this grant would assist in
addressing youth violence while supporting the fifth national education goal.
I would appreciate this application being given the consideration it deserves and a
funding notification sent to my Phoenix, Arizona District Office. Thank you in advance for
your time.

To whom it may concern:
ASU in general, and particularly the Associated Students of ASU, is making a
concerted effort to forward the community service movement. We have just
established the Community Involvement Program (C.I.P.), which is a volunteer
community service organization. The program has been met with a positive
student response, and will be fully functioning this semester.
In addition to CIP, ASASU is putting together a coordinating board in order to
form a coalition of the existing community service organizations. This will allow
the organizations to unitedly address service issues in the community. The
synergy that results from these efforts will definitely be felt by the 44,000 students
at ASU.
The administration of ASU is responding to this student movement. Academic
credit, internships, and community service requirements are being added to the
curriculum. The professors and faculty are also adding their input. Student,
faculty, and administration representatives are currently meeting to decide how
best to facilitate this movement. We feel that we would have many untapped
resources to provide if we were given this grant 10 help these youth. We would
also appreciate a direction to take with all the energy that has been building with
this movement. We thank you for your consideration of our proposal, and hope
we will be able to be of assistance to you whether or not we obtain this grant.

Dear Dean Schneider:
One of our country's most valued economic foundations is quality of life. We have found
that this issue has become a prevailing factor for corporate America, its leadership, and its
workers. Consequently, improving our quality of life in the Greater Phoenix area is a chief
concern of the Greater Phoenix Economic Council and its constituents.
We are very excited about the partnership between Arizona State University and the
Arizona Department of Youth Treatment and Rehabilitation that will offer a solution to the issue
of youth crime and violence. Helping our troubled youth is one of our highest priorities, and a
grant from the Urban Community Service Program will provide the resources necessary to
transition our youth from secure facilities back to family or independent, productive living. Your
proposal to provide access to educational opportunities for ASU students in their communities,
and additionally afford them the opportunity to develop and implement solutions to these
problems is equally important.
The Greater Phoenix Economic Council firmly supports this program, and wishes you
success in devising and implementing solutions to these pressing problems in our urban
communities.

I am happy to write a letter of support for the Department of Youth
Treatment and Rehabilitation/Arizona State University Partnership.
The program is one that has great promise for one of the most critical parts of
the treatment continuum of care, transition to the community and to
independent and productive living. The support that this grant would
provide for administrative staff, community workers, university teaching
and support staff, intern and student participatory stipends, training, technical
assistance and community service projects, and administrative operating
funds, is crucial for the success of the project.
Youth violence is one the greatest threats to our communities, both in the
short and long term. Unless we are able to curb youth violence we will be
faced with greater strains on the social services as these youth age, and as
more youth enter the system. To combat this threat we need to develop
creative and aggressive solutions, like the one outlined in this proposal.

Dear Dean Schneider:
It has come to my attention that the Arizona Department of
Youth Treatment and Rehabilitation/Arizona State University
Partnership is applying for a grant through the U.S. Department
of Education under the Urban Community Service Program.
I understand that the grant, if awarded, would supplement
funding provided by the partnership in an effort to provide
treatment and rehabilitation to the troubled youth in Arizona.
The funds would be used to assist in the transition of troubled
youth to the community and to independent and productive living.
It is clear that these funds would be used to address the
very serious problem of youth violence in our community. I
sincerely hope that this grant application is given every
consideration by the U.S. Department of Education.

Partnership Group History
March 26, 1993
D
uring the summer of 1992, Arizona Department of Youth Treatment and Rehabilitation
(DYTR) Director John R. Arredondo and Deputy Director David Cocoros had initial con-
versations with Arizona State University (ASU), College of Public Programs Dean Anne
Schneider concerning the creation of a partnership between the two agencies. This partner-
ship would endeavor to bring the vast resources of the university together with the realistic
experiences of a state agency to develop and administer a residential, transitional facility
for youth who have been committed to Arizona's juvenile corrections system.
On August 28, 1992, representatives of several AS U departments met with DYTR leadership staff
for an initial orientation and briefing. Following that meeting a maller group met on September
24, 1992, to discuss timelines, location and space, the target population, and program design.
This group formed several smaller task force groups in the following areas: placement and space
issues, fund raising strategies, and campus community involvement.
During the intervening months, these groups met and discussed strategies, reporting to the en-
tire partnership group at a meeting on December 1, 1992. At this meeting a group of DYTR staff
and youth presented the DYTR prototype model for a continuum of care. It is intended that the
proposed partnership follow the philosophy of this model, modifying it as appropriate for transi-
tion into the community. AS U students and DYTR taff would be involved in the design, re-
search, and evaluation of this partnership program.
OnJanuary 22, 1993, a group of DYTR staff and youth met with Dean Schneider to develop a
purpose statement for the partnership program. The attached document, developed by a commit-
tee comprising DYTR staff, DYTR youth and ASU representatives at that meeting, serves as a state-
ment of philosophy and purpose for the DYTR/AS U partnership project.

DYTR BUDGET JUSTIFICATION
Personnel
The personnel include Joel Blumenthal who will serve .60
as the project director and two other full time positions.
The Community Coordinator position is explained in the Key
Personnel section of the proposal. The technical/ clerical
person will provide technical, clerical, and grant
administration support. DYTR will pay the salaries of 11
full time staff at the multi purpose community-based
transitional facility. These salaries are shown as cost
share. The Consent Decree specifies one staff person for
every eight youth during the daytime shift, one per 12 for
other shifts. These cover 24 hours per day, seven days per
week; thus we estimate a need for 11 staff the first four
month of operation and 12 staff thereafter for the 24 youth
in the residential program. Four percent increases in
salaries are shown in the second year, and an additional four
percent in the third year.
Employee Related Expenses
DYTR estimates ERE at 31% of salaries and wages.
Travel (Local)
DYTR policy requires that employees are paid mileage for
local travel involved in procuring community resources or
travels from one facility to another. We have estimated this
at about $900 the first year and $1,200 the second.
Materials and Supplies
Materials and supplies are based on the experiences at
Adobe Mountain School.
Indirect
The indirect of eight percent is shown at cost share.

RE: Grant submitted by Arizona Department of Youth
Treatment and Arizona State University
To Whom It May Concern:
I am writing this letter to support the awarding of a grant
to the Arizona Department of Youth Treatment and
Rehabilitation/Arizona State University Partnership to help
them in their effort to utilize alternative sources of
funding to assist in the treatment and rehabilitation of
Arizona's troubled youth. This grant would help in
addressing the critical issue of youth violence which is
prevalent here in the state of Arizona.
I believe that the funds put to this effort will be well
spent. I have observed the Department of Youth Treatment
and Rehabilitation and the Arizona State University over
the past couple of years work in a partnership effort to
try and secure and provide more rehabilitative and
educational services for children committed to the
Department of Youth Treatment and Rehabilitation.
I believe that the issue of youth crime and violence is one
of our highest priorities and something that we must bring
under control if this state or any other state is to help
us progress into the future.
I believe that the goals stated by this partnership are
goals that can be achieved, are worth achieving and must be
achieved to provide the possibility of a significant future
for our youth.
It is my understanding that this program will serve youth
who have been convicted of serious offenses, who have
successfully completed an innovated individualized
treatment within & secure facility and are attempting to
reintegrate Into their families, communities, school and
work as responsible, educated, employable, productive and
self reflecting citizens.
These youth need community support to be able to achieve
these goals. This partnership would help them have access
to educational opportunities and also help the Arizona State
University graduate and under graduate students in the areas
of service learning, community service internships,
research apprenticeships, thesis and dissertations.
I wholeheartedly support this project and ask that you do go
by the awarding of a grant for this purpose.

I have been meaning for months to drop you a note to congratulate you on your new job.
We all have made quite a jump from running state-wide campaigns out of kitchens.
As the coordinator of USDA's national service efforts, I have been consulting with
Andrew Cuomo's office on how our departments can work jointly together on a nutrition corps

Hope you are doing well and you haven't lost the spirit of insurgency.

Dear Dean Schneider and Mr. Arredondo:
Three years ago, the Department of Youth Treatment and Rehabilitation was separated from the
Arizona Department of Corrections in an effort to bring an end to a era of inhumane and
ineffective juvenile offender treatment in Arizona. The new department was charged with the
legislative mandate of supplying effective treatment and rehabilitative programming in the least
restrictive environment to the troubled youth of our State. I have worked for the agency since
its inception, and seen its administration and staff struggle with the problems of changing a
punitive and counterproductive philosophy into one that successfully helps change the behavior
of these disruptive and violent youth.
In the past year and a half, programming has been developed and implemented that finally is
making a difference. The youth that are committed to this department are receiving the
treatment that addresses their issues and helps empower them and make them responsible for
their own actions. As these youth reenter their communities, however, there is still an element
that is missing. The youth themselves recognize that this element is a transitional support system
that can help them effectively practice the skills that they have learned.
During these same years, I have been a student in the Public Affairs Doctoral Program at
Arizona State University, in addition to my agency duties. As Chief of Volunteer/Intern
Services for the past year, I have also been responsible for developing and supervising the
agency's intern program. Experience in both my professional and academic life have led me
to realize how supportive the vast resources of the university can be to the success of
governmental programs and how essential it is for university students to be able to supplement
the theoretical education of the classroom with the practical experience of the real world.
Over the past year, those of us who believe that the issues of youth crime and violence can be
successfully and effectively addressed, especially at the community level, have put many hours
into developing a partnership that would bring these diverse governmental agencies together in
a partnership program. I believe that the program developed by this partnership is critical to
Ms. Anne L. Schneider
Mr. John R. Arredondo

achieving not only the successful reentry of our committed youth into the community but also
the building of a population of young people whose leadership will be able to develop and
maintain empowered and self-supporting urban communities.
I am looking forward with great anticipation and excitement to working in this program and
believe that the awarding of this Urban Community Service Program grant could be a important
key to the expedient and successful implementation of this program. I urge you to support our
request.

Dear Dean Schneider:
I'm writing to you today regarding the Arizona Department of Youth
Treatment and Rehabilitation/Arizona State University Partnership and my
interest in seeing it fully funded.
As you know the project provides for services including transitional living
programs. Transitional living will foster growth and independent living
skills for serious youthful offenders in the Phoenix metropolitan area.
By way of background, my experience in the juvenile justice field extends
over ten years in Illinois and Arizona. Over ten years ago, I was first
appointed to the Illinois Juvenile Justice Commission by Governor James
Thompson and after moving to Arizona six years later, I was appointed first
by Governor Rose Mofford and again by Governor Fife Symington to the
Arizona Juvenile Justice Advisory Council. I have on those two bodies
overseen the awarding of federal monies under the Juvenile Justice
Delinquencies Prevention Act.
In addition to those responsibilities, I have been appointed to the Task
Force of Juvenile Corrections in Arizona, which has responsibilities to
assist the state in its transition from a correctional philosophy to a
treatment philosophy under the umbrella of a class action law suit alleging
constitutional violations of the rights of juveniles held in secured
detention in Arizona.
The Arizona DYTR/ASU partnership holds the promise of establishing a
facility and a program that can attack one of the most serious areas of
concern in the juvenile justice system; that is, serious juvenile crime.
The program offers the opportunity to take youth who pose serious threats
to society and treat and rehabilitate these young people so they can become
active, positive, contributing members of society. The program is well
founded in social science research and may prove to be a model for programs
throughout the country.
It is clear to me that programs such as these are worthy of support. I
wholeheartedly endorse the goals of the program and lend my support to the
effort to obtain a grant providing federal monies in order to make the
program become a reality.
If you have any further questions regarding my position or this letter,
please do not hesitate to contact me at 966-0080.
Sincerely,

Dear Dean Schneider and Mr. Arredondo:
One of the most critical social problems that faces us today is juvenile violence.
The rapid escalation of this problem is affecting almost every community in our
country. Over the past year-and-a half, Arizona has attempted to address this
problem by instituting innovative and promising treatment and rehabilitation
programs to its juvenile correction system. The task of reaching many of the
young offenders who threaten our very way of life has begun and shows promise
of success.
For the past two-and-a half years I have worked with DYTR as a member of the
Governor's Task Force on Juvenile Corrections. As a member, I have been
impressed with the direction the department has taken under the leadership of
Mr. Arredondo. Your vision and practical solution applications and your ability
to work with all groups related to DYTR has been exemplary. As a high school
principal for six years and an educator for nineteen, I have rarely seen the type of
positive collaborative effort that the department has undertaken. These efforts are
working and the direction of the DYTR are encouraging and exemplary.
The institutional changes that have taken place SO far, however, are not
sufficient. Programs must also be instituted that address the issues of effective
transitional programming back to the community and to families of origin.
The DYTA/ASU partnership program holds enormous promise in that area. Not
only does it bring the vast resources of Arizona's largest University to the arena of
juvenile corrections, but it also offers university faculty and students the
opportunity to work within the communities that are in need of support. This type
of partnership is essential if we are to impact the lives of troubled youth and
rebuild the community support systems that are currently so dysfunctional.
I extend my full support to this endeavor and urge you to award this important
grant to the partnership.

Until AmeriCorps publishes its final rules it is not clear if they will compute the matching requirement based on
the total program cost including the basic living allowance or the total cost excluding the basic living allowance.
For that reason match percentages have been computed two ways to ensure that-in both cases our application does
request more than 75% of the funds from Americorps.
