Save the Children U.S. Programs - FY1998
Summary of Communities benefiting from the Web of Support
National Leadership Collaborative for Community Programs
Eight (8) cities have been selected to participate in the first year of a three year initiative to
support community based programs serving children and youth during their out-of-school
time. These urban partners will join 24 existing rural program partners. During FY1999,
six (6) to eight (8) cities and an additional 37 rural community partners will join the effort.
The initiative focuses on a single neighborhood within each city, and in counties within
each rural region to ensure that targeted children and youth benefit from the three key
support factors comprising the "Web of Support" -- an ongoing and consistent
relationship with caring adults, a safe place to go, and constructive activities to pursue
during out-of-school time. Program directors from rural and urban community programs
came together during the first week of February in Chevy Chase Maryland to participate in
leadership training, share best practices, gain from lessons learned, and begin the process
of building a national voice regarding children and their out-of-school time. Participating
national partners include the National Institute on Out-of-School Time (NIOST), a pioneer
in after-school program quality improvement; Aguirre International, an expert in program
evaluation; and Ripple Effects, an expert in team building and leadership development.
Following are the 1998 community partners involved in our National Collaborative.
FY1998 URBAN COMMUNITIES AND PARTNERS:
Los Angeles, California - Pacoima Neighborhood (Total benefiting youth - about 11,000)
High gang activity, school drop out and teen pregnancy are three of the critical challenges facing the
youth. The collaboration initially will include three program partners funded by Save the Children, New
Directions for Youth, LA Team Mentoring, and Woodcraft Rangers. This collaboration will focus on
the 100 highest risk Pacoima Middle School Students (those the school has given up on) and provide them
with access to: extensive individual and family counseling; a mentoring team including a community
member, a teacher and a college student; and two separate camping experiences. In addition, thousands of
youth will benefit from after school activities, special events and field trips that will be provided.
San Francisco, California - Outer Sunset Neighborhood (Total benefiting youth - about 8,000)
Children and youth served will be primarily recent immigrant Russians, African-Americans, Laotians,
Cambodians and Vietnamese. Cultural barriers and ethnic tension are two of the critical challenges facing
this neighborhood. The collaboration initially will include two program partners funded by Save the
Children: Peer Resources will expand their teen leadership program to recruit additional mentors for
younger children and reach out to youth not currently participating in programs offered. The Sunset
Beacon Center will provide the facility and expand activities offered to the youth including tutoring,
computer assistance, and athletics. These two agencies will work together to sponsor a Youth Summer
initiative where different special activities will take place weekly during the summer months.
Cincinnati, Ohio - Lower Price Hill Neighborhood (Total benefiting youth - about 1,000)
Children and youth in this region are known as Urban Appalachians. School readiness has been identified
as the single greatest issue for the children and youth in Lower Price Hill. Some estimates place the drop
out rate at 90%. The collaboration partners, Urban Appalachian Council, West C, and South
Fairmount Community Center will work together to prepare youth for school, support them during their
school years, and help prepare them for work. Youth will participate in environmental projects and learn
about their cultural heritage through a program entitled Clan Destin.
Ft. Myers, Florida - Pine Manor Neighborhood (Total benefiting youth - about 1,350)
Children served are primarily multi-ethnic, Caucasian, Latino(a) and African-American. Abuse (child,
sex, spouse, and drug) as well as violence permeates the neighborhood. Big Brothers/Big Sisters of
Southwest Florida will join with the Southwest Florida Children's Fund, Inc. to provide mentors, after-
school activities, recreational outings and individual and family counseling for the children and youth of
Pine Manor.
Bridgeport, Connecticut - Southend Neighborhood (Total benefiting youth - about 2,800)
Children and youth served are primarily African-American, Latino(a) and Caucasian School
performance, delinquency, teen pregnancy, lack of life-skills and dysfunctional families represent the
greatest challenges for the children living in poverty in the Southend neighborhood. The initial
collaboration will include four community partners. The Bridgeport Police Department, Southend
Community Center, Child Guidance Center, and Ambassador AmeriCorps will join forces to link
children and youth with senior citizens to learn life skills and receive tutoring. Teens will receive leadership
training and act as peer mentors. In addition, individual and family counseling will be provided to all
youth, siblings and families in need.
New York, NY - Brooklyn, Bedford Stuyvesant Neighborhood (Total benefiting youth - about 300)
Children served are primarily African-American, Haitian, Dominican Republic and Jamaican School
readiness, teen pregnancy and substance abuse are the three primary challenges being addressed by this
initiative. The initial program partner, Ellison Youth, Inc., is a grassroots organization that provides
homework assistance, life skills and self-esteem training. They use the performing arts to attract and
maintain children and youth. A collaboration will be built with at least one additional neighborhood
organization in FY99.
Phoenix, Arizona - City of Glendale, The Barrio Neighborhood (Total benefiting youth - about 2,000)
High gang activity, violence, and drug use are three of the most serious challenges facing the residents
of Glendale, a city of about 250,000 people and a suburb of Phoenix. The Glendale Community Center,
Mothers Against Gangs and the Latino Peace Officers Association have joined forces to provide
intervention and prevention activities for young people and recruit adult mentors for the young people. The
Glendale Community Center is located just one block from the local housing projects. Working closely
with the City's Parks and Recreation Department and the local fire department, children will be able to
participate in a variety of constructive activities with caring adults.
Albuquerque, New Mexico -- South Broadway Neighborhood (Total benefiting youth - about 500)
Violence and student drop out rates are two of the greatest challenges facing children and youth living in
poverty in Albuquerque. There are nearly 120 identifiable and/or territorial specific youth gangs in the
city. Two adjacent neighborhoods have experienced particular youth violence, the South Broadway
neighborhood and the Kirtland Corner Neighborhood. In response, one of the most complex and creative
collaborations to join the Save the Children effort, the University of New Mexico will bring their Policy
Center Community School and Service Corps together with two community based organizations, the
United South Broadway Corporation and Kirtland Corner Family Resource Center to work with high-
risk middle school youth by recruiting mentors, providing peer support, a variety of constructive activities
and field trips, as well as numerous safe places for the young people. In addition, the creation of a South
Broadway Pops Children's Choir will be formed based upon the internationally renowned Harlem Boys
Choir. Central to the agenda of this local collaborative on behalf of school-age children will be outreach
efforts to increase parental involvement, diffuse ethnic tension, and decrease cross-neighborhood violence.
Already these partners have been able to leverage Save the Children's support to obtain financial support
from the City of Albuquerque, ensuring year-round after-school activities for middle school children.
FY1998 RURAL COMMUNITIES AND PARTNERS - benefit figures include sponsored children
Appalachian Region - (total benefiting - about 3,350)
A total of six community partners including two successful '97 pilot partners throughout rural
Kentucky and Tennessee will participate in the Collaborative during FY1998. These partners manage
community-based programs and Family Resource Centers located near K-8 schools that provide programs
and services for African-American and Caucasian children and their families during non-school hours.
Southwestern Region - (total benefiting youth - about 2,750)
A total of nine community outreach program partners including three successful '97 pilot partners
branch out across rural areas of Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and North Dakota. Children served are
primarily of Hispanic origin and Native American heritage including those in Apache, Dakota Sioux,
Navajo, Pueblo, and Tohono O'Odham Nations.
Southeastern Region - (total benefiting youth - about 2,750)
A total of ten program partners including three successful '97 pilot partners span rural communities of
the Mississippi River Delta and South Carolina. These partners serve predominantly African-American
and Caucasian children in some of the poorest regions of the United States, providing literacy assistance
and after-school outreach programs.

In bold response to the negative forces
confronting school-age children today,
Save the Children presents a
web of support
that fills vulnerable out-of-school
hours with safety, support, and
opportunities, giving children the
chance to pursue their dreams and
achieve their potential.

building the web of support during out-of-school time
On average, American children spend only 20 percent of their waking hours,
in school. How they spend the remaining 80 percent of their time depends
largely on support factors available to them. In families and communities lacking
resources to provide quality after-school programs, many children become
subject to "self-care," where the consequences of boredom and misdirected
energy can be devastating.
Save the Children's new U.S. initiatives promise to bridge the critical gap of sup-

cancer.
Children plans to increase the quality, scope and reach of programs and services
helping more than half a million school-age children. Recent studies reveal:
Children with consistent access to caring adult relationships in their out-
of-school time are 46 percent less likely than peers to start using illegal
drugs; 27 percent less likely to start drinking; 52 percent less likely to
skip a day of school; and 37 percent less likely to skip a class.
Children who spend 20-35 hours each week engaged in positive learn-
ing activities such as homework, sports, games and community projects
succeed in school, build good work habits, strengthen relationships with
peers, and establish a foundation for achievement in later life.
Children in good after-school programs in safe places become more
cooperative, manage conflicts better, develop an interest in recreational
reading, and do better in school, according to teachers polled in a
recent survey.
School vandalism decreased, and 16 percent of children enrolled in after-
school programs avoided being retained in grade, resulting in an estimated
savings of more than $1 million, according to more than one-third of all
principals in a survey of 64 programs in 15 states.
promoting collaboration and sustainable change
Local and national collaboration is a key component of success for the web
of support. Save the Children's global experience in many disadvantaged
communities supports a firm belief that lasting change is possible only when
community members share in the reconstructive process, are empowered
by resources, skills and ideas, and take ownership of solutions.
At the local level, Save the Children is establishing working partnerships with
promising neighborhood organizations serving youth in their out-of-school
time. By investing in the people, programs, and resource networks that con-
nect and support these organizations, Save the Children is working to bring
local solutions to scale and multiply the positive impact for children.
At the national level, Save the Children has joined forces with three distin-
guished advisors: the National Institute on Out-of-School Time (NIOST), an
affiliate of Wellesley College's Center for Research on Women and a pioneer in
research and development concerning children's out-of-school time: Aguirre
International, an expert in impact evaluation for youth programming; and Ripple
Effects Consulting, a specialist in team building and leadership training. Together
with these organizations, Save the Children is designing and delivering training
workshops, site visits, and technical support for its community partners in the
arenas of program quality improvement, outcomes-based measurement. and
leadership skills.
)
The success of these collaborations will require resources and perseverance.
An important strategic objective of Save the Children's new U.S. effort is to
mobilize local and national resource and information networks that will
strengthen the web of support by directing additional financial, in-kind, and
volunteer contributions toward programs serving children-at-risk in their out-
of-school time.
enhancing youth leadership and responsibility
Save the Children believes that every child is special and possesses talents
and ideas that are valuable to society. When given the appropriate support,
even a troubled child's capabilities can be awakened and cultivated. In short,
the web of support recognizes youth as an essential part of any lasting solution.
Save the Children's initiatives are designed to raise public awareness of
America's youth as an important resource, and instill in young people the
belief that with hard work and dedication they can pursue their dreams,
achieve their goals, and change the world.
The new U.S. initiatives include a comprehensive youth leadership program
designed to motivate and empower young people to assume more respon-
sibility as individuals and as members of their families and communities. This
program will engage youth in community development through internships
and neighborhood service projects with Save the Children's local partner
organizations. National leadership workshops will bring together youth and
adults from diverse communities to forge collaborations that incorporate
youth voice and build bridges of understanding across cultures. For every
young person who discovers new confidence and leadership capabilities,
many others will be inspired to follow his or her example and contribute to
the revitalization of their communities.
In every sector of society, individual
ideas, dreams and determination fuel
the collective imagination and ignite
progress. As in any endeavor, Save the
Children must mobilize and leverage

National Leadership Collaborative for Community Programs
Save the Children is initiating an unprecedented national partnership that links the strongest community-based
organizations. their activities. and the people who run them with resources, technical assistance, leadership
training. and public recognition. By the year 2000, the Collaborative will grow to include 60 rural partners in
such diverse regions as Appalachia, the Southwest, and the Mississippi River Delta, plus 40 urban partners
in 16 cities across the country. for a targeted reach of 200,000 children-at-risk.
National Resource Mobilization
In order to strengthen the collaborative efforts of community partners, expand their number of beneficia-
ries. and increase their overall impact, Save the Children is launching several National Resource
Mobilization initiatives to create sustainable pools of resources. services. and public support for programs

the time for action is now
Statistics chronicle the problems engulfing America's children today and
underscore the urgency of their need for help. Failure to provide solutions
will only allow the out-of-school time gap to continue to foster high risk sit-
uations for children, ultimately weakening families, depleting tomorrow's
workforce, and perpetuating community deterioration. But together we can
provide a web of support that will eradicate the void existing for millions of
children during their out-of-school time, and replace idle hours with positive
activities and influences.
In order to launch its new U.S. initiatives and weave this crucial web of support,
Save the Children plans an investment of $26 million during fiscal years 1998-
2000. Revenues identified to support this investment will include $10 million
from Save the Children's own time-tested child sponsorship program, plus a $3
million grant from The David and Lucile Packard Foundation to support the
National Leadership Collaborative for Community Programs. Remaining funds
will be raised from additional private and public sources including individuals,
corporations, foundations, and other organizations concerned with making a
difference in the lives of school-age children.
the benefits are clear
The dividends to society resulting from effective programs for children and
youth savings in health care, education, welfare, judicial and penal system
costs are clearly enormous. One recent study of high quality programs
serving disadvantaged children found the return on investment to be as high
as $7 for every $1 invested.
Over nearly seven decades of operation, Save the Children has earned a
reputation for high quality performance as an agent of change. Investment
has been converted to impact for children and families in some of the most
downtrodden communities throughout the world.
An investment in Save the Children's U.S. initiatives will yield lasting impact
for individual children, communities, and the nation well into the 21st century.
Participation sends the message that it is no longer acceptable for the most
prosperous nation to have the industrialized world's highest child poverty
rate. Giving children-at-risk access to a web of support in their out-of-school
time will give them great hope and confidence in the future.
the opportunity is yours
Now more than ever, U.S. children need your support. In this vital invest-
ment, every individual and every institution can be a shareholder.
How can you make the most direct impact? By making an unrestricted financial
commitment to support Save the Children's U.S. programs, or if you prefer. a
designated contribution to one or more of the specific initiatives making up the
web of support:
The National Leadership Collaborative for Community Programs
The National Resource Mobilization Initiatives
Your investment will make a measurable difference. For every program that
you help expand and improve, more children will benefit - and learn to make
wise choices in their lives. Your contribution will energize our initiatives and
enhance our collective efforts to bring about a profound and positive shift in
the way children grow up in America.
