SPARTANBURG ACADEMIC MOVEMENT - SPARTANBURG SUCCESS PIPELINE

MENTORING YOUTH CREATES POSITIVE IMPACTS FOR BOTH THE MENTEES AND THE ADULTS WHO MENTOR THEM. YOUTH WITH MENTORS HAVE INCREASED LIKELIHOOD OF GOING TO COLLEGE, BETTER ATTITUDES TOWARDS SCHOOL, INCREASED SOCIAL AND EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT, AND IMPROVED SELF-ESTEEM. THROUGH PROGRAMS THAT TARGET BLACK YOUTH AND YOUTH OF COLOR, WHO LIVE IN AREAS STEEPED IN POVERTY AND HAVE ACCESS TO FEWER OPPORTUNITIES, THE NATIONAL CARES MENTORING MOVEMENT (NCMM) HAS ESTABLISHED A NETWORK OF VOLUNTEERS, AFFILIATES, AND SUPPORTERS THAT BRINGS CARING ADULTS AND AT-RISK YOUTH TOGETHER. NCMM WILL EXPAND EXISTING PROGRAMS IN NINE GEOGRAPHIC REGIONS. ALL PROGRAMS WILL BE CENTERED ON THE EVIDENCE-BASED CURRICULUM A NEW WAY FORWARD: HEALING WHAT’S HURTING BLACK AMERICA, WHICH IS PEER-REVIEWED AND HAS UNDERGONE REVISION REGULARLY. ANCHORED BY A 58 U.S.-CITY AFFILIATE NETWORK, NCMM IS THE NATION’S RECOGNIZED LEADER IN THE RECRUITMENT, TRAINING AND ENGAGEMENT OF AFRICAN AMERICAN MENTORS, AND THE ONLY ORGANIZATION IN THE U.S. PROVIDING HOLISTIC PROGRAMMING NATIONALLY TO ADVANCE BLACK CHILDREN, GROWING UP IN UNDERSERVED COMMUNITIES. TO ACCOMPLISH THE PROPOSED PROJECT, NCMM WILL CONTINUE TO BUILD ON ITS ESTABLISHED PARTNERSHIPS WITH LOCAL BUSINESSES, SCHOOLS, JUVENILE JUSTICE CENTERS, AND FAITH-BASED INSTITUTIONS TO BRING CARING AND QUALIFIED MENTORS TO THE YOUTH PARTICIPANTS. LOCAL AFFILIATES WILL BE STRENGTHENED THROUGH SUPPORT FROM THE NCMM NATIONAL ORGANIZATION AND LOCAL PARTNERSHIPS TO HELP RECRUIT, TRAIN, AND RETAIN ADULT MENTORS, WHO SHARE THE LIVED EXPERIENCES OF THEIR MENTEES, AND TRAINED AND LICENSED FACILITATORS. PERFORMANCE MEASURES WILL BE COLLECTED BY ADMINISTERING PRE- AND POST-SURVEYS TO BOTH YOUTH AND MENTORS. THIS DATA WILL INFORM FUTURE ENHANCEMENTS IN PROGRAM DELIVERY AND ENGAGEMENT. DURING THE 36-MONTH GRANT CYCLE, NCMM AFFILIATES WILL WORK TO RECRUIT 839 ADULT MENTORS TO SUPPORT THE YOUTH IN THEIR COMMUNITIES. WITH THE HELP OF SCHOOLS AND JUVENILE JUSTICE FACILITIES, NCMM WILL TARGET 4,988 YOUTH OF COLOR, WITH A PRIMARY FOCUS ON AFRICAN AMERICAN YOUTH, AGES 12 TO 17, TO BRING OUR CULTURALLY RELEVANT, HEALING SERVICES TO PROVIDE YOUTH WITH THE EMOTIONAL, SOCIAL, AND ACADEMIC SUPPORT THEY MUST HAVE TO BECOME SELF-SUSTAINING, SUCCESSFUL CONTRIBUTORS TO THEIR FAMILY, COMMUNITY AND OUR SOCIETY. THE ORGANIZATION WILL GROW THE NUMBERS OF YOUNG PEOPLE WHO PARTICIPATE BY OVER 20% OVER THE COURSE OF THE GRANT, WITH A PLAN FOR SUSTAINING THOSE NUMBERS LONG TERM.

COMMUNITY PROJECT FUNDING/CONGRESSIONALLY DIRECTED SPENDING - CONSTRUCTION - THIS PROJECT ADDRESSES THE SIGNIFICANT IMPACT OF ADDICTION AND MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES ON PHILADELPHIA, PARTICULARLY IN THE KENSINGTON AVENUE CORRIDOR, A NATIONWIDE EPICENTER OF THE ADDICTION CRISIS. SELF HELP MOVEMENT, A LEADER IN ADDICTION RECOVERY FOR OVER FIFTY YEARS, PLANS TO ESTABLISH A CRISIS STABILIZATION UNIT TO BETTER SERVE INDIVIDUALS STRUGGLING WITH BOTH MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE ABUSE ISSUES. CURRENT TREATMENT SYSTEMS OFTEN FAIL TO ADEQUATELY ADDRESS THE COMPLEXITY OF POLY-SUBSTANCE USE AND CO-OCCURRING DISORDERS. INITIAL ASSESSMENTS ARE TYPICALLY CONDUCTED WHILE INDIVIDUALS ARE UNDER THE INFLUENCE, RESULTING IN INCOMPLETE EVALUATIONS AND INEFFICIENT TREATMENT PLACEMENTS. THIS LEADS TO PATIENTS BEING TRANSFERRED BETWEEN FACILITIES WITHOUT PROPER CONSIDERATION OF THEIR NEEDS, WHICH DEPERSONALIZES THEIR TREATMENT EXPERIENCE AND LIMITS THEIR INVOLVEMENT IN THEIR CARE. THE PROPOSED CRISIS STABILIZATION UNIT WILL PROVIDE EXTENDED STABILIZATION SERVICES, ALLOWING INDIVIDUALS THE NECESSARY TIME TO GAIN COGNITIVE CLARITY AND MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS ABOUT THEIR TREATMENT OPTIONS. THIS APPROACH AIMS TO ENHANCE TREATMENT OUTCOMES, REDUCE THE BURDEN ON OTHER LEVELS OF CARE WITHIN THE SYSTEM, AND SIGNIFICANTLY BENEFIT THOSE SUFFERING FROM CHRONIC HOMELESSNESS, MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES, AND ADDICTION. THIS PROJECT IS CRUCIAL FOR ADDRESSING PRESSING NEEDS IN PHILADELPHIA AND JUSTIFIES INCLUSION IN SENATOR FETTERMAN'S FY24 APPROPRIATIONS REQUEST.

RENOVATIONS WILL INCLUDE NEW ROOMS, ELECTRICITY, HVAC, PLUMBING, SPRINKLERS AND FINISHES.

THE PURPOSE OF “LIFE (LOCALLY LED DEVELOPMENT IN FRAGILE ENVIRONMENTS)” PROGRAM IS TO IDENTIFY AND UNDERSTAND HOW COMMUNITY DYNAMICS IN NPES (NON-PERMISSIVE ENVIRONMENTS) MAY AFFECT HOW LEADERSHIP IS DEVELOPED, WHOM IT IS DEVELOPED WITH, AND HOW THIS IN TURN MAY AFFECT DEVELOPMENT OUTCOMES. THE PROPOSED RESEARCH WILL EXAMINE HOW FACILITATION AND LEADERSHIP IMPROVE RESILIENCE AT SITES IN BANGLADESH AND ETHIOPIA. IT WILL ALSO EXPLORE HOW NPES AND A PROGRAM’S OPERATIONAL CONTEXTS IMPACT FACILITATION AND LEADERSHIP AND THE EXTENT TO WHICH OUTCOMES ARE ACHIEVED.

THE PROJECT WILL COMMENCE WITH THREE PILOT SITES BEFORE SCALING ITS STRATEGIES NATIONALLY. THIS INITIATIVE WILL FOCUS ON RURAL COMMUNITIES, AS LAW ENFORCEMENT IN THESE LOCALES OFTEN STRUGGLES TO SUPPORT NEW ARRIVALS WHO ARE AT INCREASED RISK OF HATE CRIMES. RURAL AGENCIES CAN BE THINLY STAFFED, WITH FEW RESOURCES DEDICATED TO COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT, AND MANY OFFICERS ARE THEMSELVES LONG-TERM RESIDENTS AND UNFAMILIAR OR EVEN PARTIALLY UNCOMFORTABLE WITH DEMOGRAPHIC CHANGES. LANGUAGE BARRIERS EXIST, AS DO CULTURAL AND RELIGIOUS EXPECTATIONS THAT OFFICERS ARE UNCERTAIN HOW TO NAVIGATE, INCLUDING ATTITUDES TOWARD AUTHORITY, GENDER, AND DIRECT INTERACTION. FAITH-BASED ORGANIZATIONS CAN FACILITATE IMPROVED INTERACTION BETWEEN OFFICERS AND NEW ARRIVALS IN THESE AREAS. MFI WILL CONVENE NATIONAL AND LOCAL WORKING GROUPS OF STAKEHOLDERS TO PLAN AND IMPLEMENT THE PARHC PROJECT OVERALL AND IN THE THREE PILOT SITES. PRINTED MATERIALS AND TRAINING BASED ON THE SUCCESSFUL OUTCOMES FROM THE PILOT SITES WILL BE USED TO REPLICATE THE PROJECT IN RURAL COMMUNITIES THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATE.

TO EMPOWER YOUTH IN PULASKI COUNTY, ARKANSAS, WITH CREATIVE TOOLS THAT PROMOTE HEALTHY CHOICES ANDREDUCE OPIOID AND OTHER SUBSTANCE MISUSE ACROSS THEIR COMMUNITIES. - THE B.E.A.T. (BUILDING EMPOWERED AND AWARE TEENS) MOVEMENT YOUTH DRUG PREVENTION COALITION SERVES YOUTH AGES 12–18 AND THEIR FAMILIES IN NORTH LITTLE ROCK, ARKANSAS, WITHIN PULASKI COUNTY. THIS DEFINED GEOGRAPHIC AREA INCLUDES URBAN RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOODS AND COMMERCIAL CORRIDORS WHERE ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS CONTRIBUTE TO INCREASED YOUTH EXPOSURE TO SUBSTANCE USE. GUIDED BY THE STRATEGIC PREVENTION FRAMEWORK (SPF), THE COALITION UTILIZES A DATA-DRIVEN, COMMUNITY-BASED APPROACH TO REDUCE YOUTH ALCOHOL USE AND PRESCRIPTION DRUG MISUSE BY ADDRESSING ACCESS, AVAILABILITY, AND COMMUNITY NORMS. LOCAL DATA FROM THE ARKANSAS PREVENTION NEEDS ASSESSMENT (APNA) AND COMMUNITY ASSESSMENTS INDICATE THAT ALCOHOL REMAINS THE MOST USED SUBSTANCE AMONG YOUTH, WITH PAST 30-DAY USE INCREASING FROM 4.3% IN 2023 TO 6.1% IN 2025. MARIJUANA AND PRESCRIPTION DRUG MISUSE HAVE ALSO SHOWN INCREASES, WITH PRESCRIPTION DRUG MISUSE RISING FROM 2.1% TO 2.6% DURING THE SAME PERIOD. EARLY INITIATION IS A SIGNIFICANT CONCERN, WITH YOUTH BEGINNING PRESCRIPTION DRUG MISUSE AT AN AVERAGE AGE OF 11.7. DATA FURTHER INDICATES THAT 50% OF YOUTH PERCEIVE ALCOHOL AS EASY TO OBTAIN, AND LOCAL ENFORCEMENT DATA SHOW GAPS IN RETAIL COMPLIANCE, WITH 25% OF OUTLETS FAILING COMPLIANCE CHECKS. SOCIAL ACCESS REMAINS A KEY DRIVER, WITH 80% OF YOUTH REPORTING ACCESS TO ALCOHOL THROUGH PARTIES AND COMMUNITY EVENTS. PRESCRIPTION DRUG MISUSE IS PRIMARILY DRIVEN BY ACCESS WITHIN THE HOME, INCLUDING UNSECURED MEDICATIONS AND DIVERSION FROM FAMILY OR FRIENDS. TO ADDRESS THESE CONDITIONS, B.E.A.T. WILL IMPLEMENT COMPREHENSIVE, POPULATION-LEVEL STRATEGIES ALIGNED WITH THE SEVEN STRATEGIES FOR COMMUNITY CHANGE. EFFORTS WILL FOCUS ON REDUCING RETAIL AND SOCIAL ACCESS TO ALCOHOL, INCREASING ENFORCEMENT AND COMPLIANCE, PROMOTING SAFE STORAGE AND DISPOSAL OF MEDICATIONS, STRENGTHENING PARENTAL AWARENESS AND MONITORING PRACTICES, AND SHIFTING COMMUNITY NORMS THAT CONTRIBUTE TO SUBSTANCE USE. OVER THE PROJECT PERIOD, THE COALITION WILL ACHIEVE MEASURABLE OUTCOMES ALIGNED WITH THE DFC NATIONAL CROSS-SITE EVALUATION. LONG-TERM OUTCOMES INCLUDE REDUCING PAST 30-DAY ALCOHOL USE AMONG YOUTH FROM 6.1% TO 3% BY SEPTEMBER 29, 2031, AND INCREASING THE AVERAGE AGE OF INITIATION OF PRESCRIPTION DRUG MISUSE FROM 11.7 TO 15. INTERMEDIATE OUTCOMES INCLUDE REDUCTIONS IN PERCEIVED ACCESS TO ALCOHOL AND PRESCRIPTION DRUGS, WHILE SHORT-TERM OUTCOMES FOCUS ON DECREASING RETAIL ACCESS AND IN-HOME ACCESS TO MEDICATIONS. B.E.A.T. ENGAGES ALL 12 REQUIRED COMMUNITY SECTORS, INCLUDING YOUTH, PARENTS, SCHOOLS, LAW ENFORCEMENT, HEALTHCARE, MEDIA, AND GOVERNMENT, ENSURING A COORDINATED AND SUSTAINABLE APPROACH. THROUGH STRONG PARTNERSHIPS, ONGOING DATA COLLECTION, AND CONTINUOUS QUALITY IMPROVEMENT, THE COALITION IS POSITIONED TO IMPLEMENT EFFECTIVE PREVENTION STRATEGIES THAT REDUCE SUBSTANCE USE, DELAY INITIATION, AND IMPROVE OUTCOMES FOR YOUTH AND FAMILIES ACROSS PULASKI COUNTY.
