Editor's Notes
- The Resource Center provides high quality resources and assistance to organizations interested in designing, implementing, evaluating and improving SOS programs.Some of the goals of the SOSRC is to:Create college access- and success-focused resources that employ “Summer of Service” as a strategy to increase college awareness and readiness for low-income, at-risk middle-school youth. Address one of the key challenges facing the service-learning community – the need for consistent, reliable data on program implementation and impact. Increase support for the SOS concept among policymakers, educators, youth advocates, private funders and other stakeholders at the district, state and national levels to support the expansion of SOS programming for at-risk youth. Raise awareness of SOS and promote SOS programming as an effective practice by networking with other organizations, like America’s Promise, the Afterschool Alliance, Association of Middle School Principals, and national NGOs such as Boys & Girls Clubs and YMCA youth programs.
- SOS Resource Center is an important part of how ICP implements SOS as a strategy for access and success in postsecondary education.
- Each of these 7 components of the RC are integral in helping ICP achieve its mission. We’re always working to improve the Resource Center to ensure that local and national organizations and school systems have resources for creating high quality programs for at-risk youth.
- Visitors to the RC can use our improved platform to find items in the categories above as well as on program management, SOS program examples and research.This list of categories will increase as our offerings become more diverse. (next slide for screenshot)
