Dear Sponsor: Unlike any time in history, our children need mentors the most. Far too many children in Florida are growing up in single family homes, schools plagued with violence, and minimal contact with positive caring adults. Our program, Situational Environmental Circumstances Mentoring Project (SEC), is a conceptual framework designed to address issues related to school discipline, school dropouts and graduation rates. This model has been implemented and proven effective in delinquency, foster care, and educational systems in Central Florida. The SEC Mentoring Project in Orlando seeks to increase the effectiveness and efficiency of the education process and environment, thereby improving the life chances and choices of at risk youth, more specifically, Black Males. Additionally, the project seeks to encourage, expose and prepare Black Males for educational and career opportunities available to them in their quest to become successful and productive members of the community through partnerships with Big Bend Community Based Care and Professional Opportunities for Program for Students (POPS).
Program Components
1. The SEC Mentoring Project in Orlando will serve 60 at-risk students from Robinswood, Meadowbrook, and Memorial middle schools and Evans, Jones and Oak Ridge high schools in Orlando Florida. These schools were selected based on suspension, expulsions, disciplinary referrals, crime/delinquent incidents, standardize test scores and percentage of students from low income families. 3. The SEC Project will utilize college mentors from FAMU Law School and other local colleges and universities that have similar backgrounds or life experiences as the at-risk youth they will be mentoring. 5. The SEC Project will provide targeted training to high-risk youth, parents and educators on effective strategies and activities to engage at-youth utilizing researched-based on non-traditional methods (i.e. Hip Hop, Social media, etc.).
