ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL this day of December, 2016. Kathy Coffey, Mayor ATTEST: City Clerk 2 YPAI , A member of National Police Activities League To: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Subject: YPAL Additional Program Planning 2017 Date: December 5th, 2016 Dear City Council Members: Effective November 24, 2016, Yakima Police Activities League (YPAL) has hired an Executive Director, Joe Willis (formerly of Rod's House), to lead YPAL, establishing evidence-based programs and encouraging family involvement on a wider basis. Developing needed resources for families and YPAL members will be a focus for the staff, the YPAL Board of Directors, volunteers, mentors, tutors and volunteer coaches. The addition of the Executive Director will bring accountability and transparency to our efforts to improve the community served by YPAL. The following programs and initiatives already exist or are in the planning stages: • Develop resources consistent with ACES (Adverse Childhood Experiences) to prevent those adverse childhood experiences or to refer and case manage those children that may have experienced adverse childhood experiences. YPAL has three trained staff (thanks to United Way), including the Executive Director, that will provide a foundation to implement ACES resources for family and children. • Develop an MOU with the Yakima School District to strengthen the relationship with the school system. There will be training, funding and partnership opportunities with the district. The first meeting is scheduled for December 5th between the Executive Director and representatives from the Yakima School District. • Develop our capacity to become interactive with the community through strengthening our social media acumen. This effort will begin with a new webpage design that will encourage donations and volunteerism. • Engage the "Strong Families" program offered through Comprehensive Healthcare. This program will be offered in English and Spanish and will take place in January or February of 2017. • Add the program, "Thought Patterns for Success — adolescent level — over 6 to 7 weeks, one night a week for 90 minutes/3 units. This program will be offered through our partners at Heritage University and is the same program provided to the Seahawks, the year they won the Super Bowl. Go Hawks! ® Strengthen and increase the group of volunteers assisting YPAL in different activities. YPAL will be following a protocol to increase the number of volunteers, train the volunteers and assign staff to monitor developing needs as their service indicates. ® Strengthen the mentoring program through our relationship with Farm Workers Clinic, Heritage University and the Washington State University Extension Staff. There are many possible mentors willing to give up their time and expertise from these organizations. Matching the mentoring candidate with a specific child or family with issues, will strengthen families and children that are without the specific resources needed. • Develop a more robust summer program that already includes sponsorship of soccer teams to compete during the spring and summer. Trips to Boulder Cave, Woodland Zoo and hopefully a repeat of the Sounders game attendance (thanks to the philanthropic arm of Delta dental) as we did in 2016, will continue into 2017. Our newly hired executive director will also be tasked at developing weekly programming during the summer months. Please be advised that all of these programs are very doable with our proposed current funding, but we can always organize more with additional funding and we will task our executive director with the responsibility to develop any reasonable funding source. Thank you for the opportunity to address the Safety Committee of the Yakima City Council. d Ed Shoenbach President of the YPAL Board Formerly acting CEO IN.. 7, YPAT4 A member of National Police Activities League December 5, 2016 Planned Programs and Specific Deliverables Project activities will take place within the context of a Youth Development Center managed by YPAL and supported by local stakeholders and our partners: Heritage University, Farm Workers Clinic, University Extension and the Yakima School District. The project will engage approximately 200 youth in evidence-based prevention and intervention services designed to mitigate the effects of the environmental influences that inhibit the ability to thrive in a school or home environment. Project strategies include outreach targeting 200 chronically truant youth and their families. Additional curriculum-based life skills training, academic support and instruction aimed at improving school success, and positive youth development programs including increased mentoring opportunities, culinary arts, wrestling and boxing for up to 60 youth. Case management including home visits, referral and family advocacy services provided through YPAL partners is reserved for up to 20 of the highest risk youth and their families. The project targets were determined based on projected need with the following considerations: Total youth enrollment at target schools: 1,377 Total youth at or below poverty: 85% (1,170) Total migrant youth: 45% (620) Total transitional bilingual (Spanish speaking) youth: 24% (330) (source: YSD, OSPI Report Card, 2015.) YPAL will utilize a Youth Services Coordinator (YSC) to conduct targeted outreach and provide service coordination. The YSC will work collaboratively with school district representatives, law enforcement and other community-based organizations to identify potential program participants, construct Individualized Service Plans (ISP) for each participant and coordinate the implementation of the ISP over the project period. The Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) questionnaire along with other diagnostic and screening tools administered by our partners will facilitate the case management candidate's identification. Intake protocols are already in place at YPAL which include orientation of the participant and parent/guardian. The orientation process includes obtaining required participant information and parental authorizations. Life skills classes will continue throughout the school year. Each class will consist of no less than 5 and no more than 10 participants with priority given to youth receiving case management. Life skills is curriculum-based with eleven (11) 45-50 minute sessions. Beginning in January 2017, life skills classes will be offered at each school and at YPAL. Participants will have an opportunity to make up a missed session with individual study at the YDC. The Positive youth development(PYD)program opportunities (mentoring and culinary arts) will begin on or around the first week of February, 2017. The culinary arts program follows an 11-week lesson plan with lessons occurring twice weekly for 60 to 90 minutes each. Culinary arts are further augmented by nutritional education and healthy lifestyle food choices provided by a Nutrition Education Assistant with WSU extension staff. PYD classes are led by skilled instructors with experience teaching content to children and youth. Classes will consist of no more than 10 participants per cohort. The culinary program will capitalize on the past involvement with Junior League, featuring their healthy cookbooks and curriculum designed to educate children and parents on making healthy living choices. Once a month, on a Thursday evening, a local chef will be chosen to "cook" with the combined cohorts, demonstrating healthy food preparation. This activity will be ongoing every month. The mentoring program will be phased in as volunteers and participant numbers increase. Also, the YPAL Achievers will be trained over a two-month period on the many facets of being a successful mentor. Over the next year, YPAL will increase the number of volunteers/mentors to sustain a minimum of 40 mentor/mentee matches. The volunteers will be supervised and evaluated(including criminal history background checks) by an assigned staff member. The monitoring of volunteers is an important task to highlight training needs and the kind of support needed to succeed. Wrestling and boxing are seasonal activities operating for a period of 22 consecutive weeks and made available to a minimum of 60 project participants. Certified volunteer coaches will provide basic [developmentally appropriate] instruction in each sport. Both sports opportunities will emphasize the importance of sportsmanship both in and outside the "ring." The project will provide all the necessary safety equipment at no cost to the participant. While in season, "practice" will take place at least twice weekly for a period of 50 minutes. The primary service component involves the utilization of a Youth Services Coordinator(YSC) to conduct outreach and coordination activities which are both prevention and intervention in nature. The YSC will also deliver the life skills curriculum. The focus of the outreach services is to increase awareness of the project, youth problem behaviors and how to avoid them. Screening is intended to link participants to appropriate prevention/intervention services both internal and throughout our partnership network. Targeted outreach will be established to identify highest risk youth. PYD activities such as recreation and culinary arts will be carefully integrated with existing and new prevention services not to become a primary focus, but rather a means to build relationships with clients and provide access to essential resources and services. The YSC will also collect vital information necessary for the development of Individualized Service Plans (ISP) for each of the 30 participants. YSC will include the following routine tasks: • Identify participant needs and goals to aid in the development of a comprehensive intervention plan-ISP. • Coach and provide role models/mentors for each participant. • Coordinate appropriate crisis responses to participants following episodes of violence. • Provide assistance to families in distress, ranging from accessing alcohol/drug/mental health services to helping resolve family conflicts with appropriate referrals. ® Visit participants who become incarcerated during the project period and helping to reconnect them to services when they are released from custody. ® Resolve conflicts and/or mediating between participant, families, peers, and/or agencies. • Act as a liaison between participant and service providers/schools to facilitate participant access to services. • Work with clients who are seeking employment; from helping develop résumés to identifying their skills and qualifications to helping participants apply for jobs or work with workforce services programs. The life skills curriculum, the Violence Prevention Project(VPP), is a prevention program whose aim is to prevent violence by enhancing the conflict-resolution skills of both male and female middle and high school students aged 12 to 16. This is accomplished primarily by working on participant communication and relationship-building skills. VPP's other goals are to address the social setting in which violence occurs and to improve academic performance. Participants' tolerance for aggression and violence is lowered by targeting the environment and teaching students about group dynamics. Academic performance is improved by building students' self-concept and working on goal setting. (Thompkins, Amanda, and Lisa M. Chauveron. 2010. The Leadership Program's Violence Prevention Project: Examining Program Effectiveness Among Early and Middle Adolescents.New York,N.Y.: The Leadership Program, Inc.) Academic Support [Tutoring] is an intervention providing academic and nonacademic development for the 30 high risk participants in support of their school reintegration and completion needs. Daily tutoring sessions will be available each day of YDC operation throughout the academic year. (Grossman, J. Baldwin, M. L. Price, V. Fellerath, L. Z. Jucovy, L. J. Kotloff, R. Raley, &K. E. Walker. 2002. Multiple Choices After School: Findings From the ESS Initiative.) Positive Youth Development(PYD) activities, which can be both prevention and intervention in nature, aim to provide high risk participants with alternatives to what they seek through antisocial behavior. The following program deliverables/objectives have been specifically crafted for the city grant: Deliverable 1: establish cooperative agreement with Barge-Lincoln and Washington schools to conduct outreach and deliver life skills education.

Information to be collected will come from existing data sources such as behavioral health case management records,juvenile justice records, local law enforcement data, school achievement records, and routine participation and utilization records. The performance measures reporting requirements will be the obligation of the Executive Director with assistance from the Youth Services Coordinator and partnering entities. Information will be collected monthly to ensure timely adherence to the program requirements. The following mechanisms and tools will be used to collect the required measures: • Participant Intake Forms • Outreach Request Forms • Kid Traks computerized attendance and participation collecting. • Academic Records • Resource Utilization Reports • Participation Reports • Satisfaction Surveys • Youth Survey • Local Crime Reports (when available) • Monthly Activity Reports • Quarterly Progress Reports The information collected for measuring performance will be reported in monthly activity reports and quarterly progress reports. Reports will be in written format and include key indicators listed above along with narrative describing project accomplishments, challenges, challenge mitigation strategies and recommendations to ensure project success in the following periods of performance. Average participant cost: $1,833 based on 60 project participants; 62% of the lowest national average daily school-year costs ($2,940-$6,510; Wallace Foundation, 2009) for programs serving elementary and middle school students based on region and community size. (A comparable project of this size in similar communities would operate with a minimum budget of $176,400.) Statement of Compliance with OJJDP Model Programs YPAL has selected the strategies, programs and activities described above based on their suitability with the unique needs and characteristics of the city of Yakima and the Northeast [Miller Park] neighborhood and their inclusion in the OJJDP Model Programs Guide. (ojjdp.gov/mpg) OJJDP's Model Programs Guide serves as a clearinghouse for evidence-based juvenile justice and youth prevention, intervention, and reentry programs. To be included in the guide a program model must undergo rigorous evaluation. Models are reviewed by expert peer reviewers and, based on the degree, quality and outcomes of the research associated with them, assigned a rating: • Effective—Programs have strong evidence indicating they achieve their intended outcomes when implemented with fidelity. • Promising—Programs have some evidence indicating they achieve their intended outcomes. Additional research is recommended. • No Effects—Programs have strong evidence indicating that they did not achieve their intended outcomes when implemented with fidelity. The standard employed by YPAL in the selection of model programs includes those achieving a Promising and Effective rating. The Model Programs Guide does not endorse specific strategies, programs and activities over others nor is it intended to replace or supersede informed judgement and/or innovation. For these reasons YPAL has and will continue to receive expert technical support in the development of our strategy from Steve Magallan of Magallan Consultancy, LLC. Mr. Magallan is the former National Technical Assistance Advisor for OJJDP's Title V Delinquency Prevention Initiative.

OBJECTIVES Objective 1: Youth Development Center at the Washington Fruit Community Center Project activities will take place within the context of a Youth Development Center located at the Washington Fruit Community Center at 602 North Fourth Street, Yakima, Washington 98901, that is managed by YPAL and supported by local stakeholders and those YPAL will work with, such as Heritage University, Farm Workers Clinic, University Extension and the Yakima School District. The project will engage approximately 200 youth in evidence-based prevention and intervention services designed to mitigate the effects of the environmental influences that inhibit the ability to thrive in a school or home environment. Project strategies include outreach targeting 200 chronically truant youth and their families. Additional curriculum-based life skills training, academic support and instruction aimed at improving school success, and positive youth development programs including increased mentoring opportunities, culinary arts, wrestling and boxing for up to 60 youth. Case management including home visits, referral and family advocacy services provided through YPAL partners is reserved for up to 20 of the highest risk youth and their families. YPAL will utilize a Youth Services Coordinator ("YSC") to conduct targeted outreach and provide service coordination. The YSC will work collaboratively with school district representatives, law enforcement and other community-based organizations to identify potential program participants, construct Individualized Service Plans ("ISP") for each participant and coordinate the implementation of the ISP over the project period. The Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) questionnaire along with other diagnostic and screening tools administered by YPAL's partners will facilitate the case management candidate's identification. Intake protocols in place at YPAL will include orientation of the participant and parent/guardian. The orientation process includes obtaining required participant information and parental authorizations. Objective 2: Life Skills Classes for Youth YPAL shall ensure that life skills classes continue throughout the school year. Each class will consist of no less than 5 and no more than 10 participants with priority given to youth receiving case management. Life skills is curriculum-based with eleven (11) 45-50 minute sessions. Beginning in January 2017, life skills classes will be offered at Barge-Lincoln Elementary School, Garfield Elementary School, Washington Middle School and at YPAL.

Objective 3: Positive Youth Development Program The Positive Youth Development ("PYD") program opportunities (mentoring and culinary arts)will begin on or around the first week of February, 2017, and will begin by no later than February 15, 2017. a. Culinary Arts Program The culinary arts program follows an 11-week lesson plan with lessons occurring twice weekly for 60 to 90 minutes each. Culinary arts are further augmented by nutritional education and healthy lifestyle food choices provided by a Nutrition Education Assistant with WSU extension staff. PYD classes are led by skilled instructors with experience teaching content to children and youth. Classes will consist of no more than 10 participants per cohort. The culinary program will capitalize on the past involvement with the Junior League, featuring their healthy cookbooks and curriculum designed to educate children and parents on making healthy living choices. Once a month, on a Thursday evening, a local chef will be chosen to "cook"with the combined cohorts, demonstrating healthy food preparation. This activity will be ongoing every month. b. Mentoring Program The mentoring program will be phased in as volunteers and participant numbers increase. Also, the YPAL Achievers will be trained over a two-month period on the many facets of being a successful mentor. During 2017, YPAL will increase the number of volunteers/mentors to sustain a minimum of 40 mentor/mentee matches. The volunteers will be supervised and evaluated (including criminal history background checks) by an assigned staff member. The monitoring of volunteers is an important task to highlight training needs and the kind of support needed to succeed. Objective 4: Physical Activities for Youth (Wrestling and Boxing) Wrestling and boxing are seasonal activities operating for a period of 22 consecutive weeks and made available to a minimum of 60 project participants. Certified volunteer coaches will provide basic developmentally appropriate instruction in each sport. Both sports opportunities will emphasize the importance of sportsmanship both in and outside the "ring." The project will provide all the necessary safety equipment at no cost to the participant. While in season, "practice" will take place at least twice weekly for a period of 50 minutes. Objective 5: YPAL Staff Maintain a minimum of three full-time equivalent staff or volunteer positions to deliver Targeted and General Outreach as described in other Objectives pursuant to the description of services in this Addendum No. 1 to the Agreement. Objective 6: Youth Services Coordinator The primary service component involves the utilization of a Youth Services Coordinator ("YSC")to conduct outreach and activities which are both prevention and intervention in nature. The YSC will also deliver the life skills curriculum. The focus of the outreach services is to increase awareness of the project, youth problem behaviors and how to avoid them. Screening Professional Services Agreement Between City of Yakima and YPAL - Page 12 is intended to link participants to appropriate prevention/intervention services both internal and throughout our partnership network. Targeted outreach will be established to identify highest risk youth. PYD activities such as recreation and culinary arts will be carefully integrated with existing and new prevention services not to become a primary focus, but rather a means to build relationships with clients and provide access to essential resources and services. The YSC will also collect vital information necessary for the development of Individualized Service Plans ("ISP") for each of the 30 participants. YSC will include the following routine tasks: a. Identify participant needs and goals to aid in the development of a comprehensive intervention plan-ISP. b. Coach and provide role models/mentors for each participant. c. Coordinate appropriate crisis responses to participants following episodes of violence. d. Provide assistance to families in distress, ranging from accessing alcohol/drug/mental health services to helping resolve family conflicts with appropriate referrals. e.

Objective 7: Violence Prevention Project The life skills curriculum, the Violence Prevention Project ("VPP"), is a prevention program whose aim is to prevent violence by enhancing the conflict-resolution skills of both male and female middle and high school students aged 12 to 16. This is accomplished primarily by working on participant communication and relationship-building skills. VPP's other goals are to address the social setting in which violence occurs and to improve academic performance. Participants'tolerance for aggression and violence is lowered by targeting the environment and teaching students about group dynamics. Academic performance is improved by building students' self-concept and working on goal setting. Objective 8: Academic Support and Training Academic Support [Tutoring] is an intervention providing academic and nonacademic development for the 30 high risk participants in support of their school reintegration and Professional Services Agreement Between City of Yakima and YPAL - Page 13 completion needs. Daily tutoring sessions will be available each day of YDC operation throughout the academic year. Objective 9: Grant Applications by YPAL and Donations Requested by YPAL. YPAL will apply for and submit a minimum of three grant applications during the term of this contract. YPAL acknowledges and understands that it is important for YPAL to commit to receiving as much outside funding as possible, including but not limited to private donations and submitting grant applications.
