Big Brothers Big Sisters and a Hundred Years of Youth Mentoring
Dr. Mark Klinedinst is an Emeritus Professor of Economics at the University of Mississippi in Hattiesburg, MS, where he teaches students and conducts research. Mark Klinedinst, Ph.D., has also volunteered with Big Brothers Big Sisters of America, the oldest youth mentoring program in the United States.
The structure and goal of Big Brothers Big Sisters are simple: to help children (called “Littles” in the program) reach their potential by pairing them with a volunteer adult (a “Big”) to have a one-on-one mentoring relationship. Since 1904, Big Brothers Big Sisters has been focusing on children from disadvantaged backgrounds: poverty, single-parent households, incarcerated parents, and so on. These Littles meet with their Big three times a month for a year, participating in free events organized by the charity or simple things like going to the park or the movies - things that a Little might not get a chance to have in their normal life.
A study conducted on the improvement of the Littles before and after engaging with the program found that they were more confident at school and got along better with their families, as well as being 46 percent less likely to get into illegal drugs later in life. Even after graduating high school and the Littles program, 90 percent of Littles alumni say that the mentoring from their Big helped them gain confidence in their teenage years.

The Tree of Angels ceremony in Hondo provided a venue for families affected by violent crime to mourn and celebrate the lives of their deceased loved ones. Over 50 family members gathered and listened to speeches from legal officials. They then decorated a Christmas tree with mementos to remember those they had lost to violence.

HOMELESS_YOUTH_FACT_SHEET
This document discusses youth homelessness in Berkeley. It states that 480 Berkeley students were identified as homeless in the 2014-2015 school year. California has the largest population of homeless students in the country, with twice the national average rate. In Alameda County, 6.8% of public school students were homeless in 2013.

It lists some current youth housing options but notes many do not meet the specific needs of homeless youth or lack resources to operate year-round.

Bartz, david afridcn american parents an effective parent involvement program...
This document discusses the importance of developing effective parent involvement programs for African American students and families. It notes that current programs are often "school-centric" and do not incorporate the unique strengths that African American parents and communities can contribute. An effective program would recognize the positive roles of parents, home, and community resources and seek to build strong partnerships between all three. It provides examples of components an effective program may include, such as communication, involvement at school and home, decision-making roles for parents, and collaboration with outside organizations. The goal is to leverage the assets of parents and communities to improve educational outcomes for African American children.
Fact sheetusa121312 aplus act fact sheet
This document discusses proposed legislation called the Uninterrupted Scholars Act that aims to improve educational outcomes for children in foster care. It does so by allowing child welfare agencies access to students' educational records, which are currently private under FERPA. The bill has bipartisan support and seeks to address issues like school transfers causing credits to be lost and delays to graduation. A case study highlights how current privacy laws can disrupt education when foster youth change placements. Passing this bill before the end of the year could help enhance opportunities for foster youth to succeed academically.

Promoting young fathers' positive involvement in their children's lives
This policy brief summarizes a study on promoting young fathers' positive involvement in their children's lives. The study found that while many young fathers want to be actively involved parents, they face numerous barriers. These include financial barriers due to lack of income and poverty, as well as cultural barriers where the father is expected to make "damage payments" to the mother's family. Relationship barriers also exist if the young parents do not have a stable relationship or if the mother's family rejects the father. The brief recommends policies and programs to help overcome these barriers, such as assisting young fathers in gaining parental rights, promoting a broader understanding of fatherhood beyond financial support, providing relationship training for young parents and grandparents, encouraging support for fathers from healthcare

Darrell Irions and the St. Petersburg Housing Authority
- 2. For nearly 20 years, former U.S. Marine Darrell Irions has served as the chief executive officer of the St. Petersburg Housing Authority (SPHA) in the Tampa Bay, Florida, region. Darrell Irions oversees an agency that received High Performer status from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.
- 3. Actively involved in the community, SPHA offers programs that encourage civic and personal responsibility. Each year, the agency teams with the Clearwater Housing Authority and the Dunedin Housing Authority to host a Father’s Day event, as part of a national HUD-sponsored initiative to promote fatherhood and responsible parenting. This year’s local event, planned for June 14, 2014, marks the fourth annual collaboration between the organizations.
- 4. Absentee fathers are an especially important issue among people who live in public housing, since the majority of single mothers in these residences earn less than $9,000 a year and lack the resources that would otherwise be available through the presence of an additional parent. The housing authorities are working together to change these bleak statistics.
- 5. Only tenants of the three organizations’ facilities are invited to attend the annual Father’s Day event. To encourage involvement, the housing authorities offer a variety of fun and family-friendly activities, such as bounce houses, face painting, a professional DJ, and much more. A host of community organizations also have booths at the event with important resources for fathers and their families, helping to connect them with the services that could lead to economic stability.
