PROGRAM PLAN (page 1 of3) Is the applicant's delinquency prevention program plan a component of a regional or tribal CSCC Plan? .¡yes D No If yes, explain how the proposed project fits into the CSCC Plan's priorities. Ifno, explain the relationship to the CSCC Plan and/or if the CSCC group is aware of the proposed project. The Cass County Delinquency Prevention Plan is attached and is solely focused on delinquency prevention. The Region V Plan does not include delinquency in its plan. It is important to note that the CSCC plan relies heavily on America's Promise-The Alliance for Youth. This strategy is focused on increasing essential resources young people need for building health, fulfilling and productive lives. America's Promise is somewhat similar to the Communities That Care model regarding protective factors. The essential resources are somewhat analogous to the protective factors. The five resources include: Mentor - An ongoing relationship with a caring adult mentor, tutor, or coach Protect - Safe places and structured activities during non-school hours Nurture - A healthy start Prepare - A marketable skill through effective education Serve - An opportunity to give back through community service The CSCC developed five goals and objective for Region V 1) That all children are cared for and nurtured 2) That all children are safe physically and emotionally 3) That all children have a healthy start and a health future 4) That all children have an effective education 5) That all children contribute to the community through service and positive behaviors All of the delinquency prevention programs identified in the Cass County Delinquency Prevention Plan could fit into the Region V CSCC plan. Title V funding is sought for a single project that was initially funded by JAIBG as part of a larger project focused on at-risk youth. It is important to note that "diversion" was recognized by the CSCC as a major project and was co-funded by the CSCC. Portions of the "at-risk" diversion project are currently funded, in part, by the Juvenile Court, a "No Child Left Behind" education grant, the Dakota Medical Foundation (CSCC Donor Advised Fund) and JAIBG funding. The diversion program focuses on unruly youth including status offenders, runaways, truants and youth suspended fÌ'om school. Some of this funding is restricted to a sub-population of the larger "unruly" population and some of the funding encompasses a larger at-risk group. Some funding is restricted to a particular service (i.e. cross-age mentoring) Juvenile Court Dakota Medical/CSCC JAIBG HHS "No Child Left Behind" Family Counseling AmeriCorpsiSub Abuse Truants, & cited status offenders Truants & cited status offenders Anger Management & KEYS participants not case-managed by another agency Runaway youth Suspended or Expelled Youth At-Risk Youth and Parents Cross-Age Mentoring - Substance Abuse Prevention All of the youth served encompass those youth with poor attachment to school, an issue believed to be predictive of juvenile delinquency.
