DISCUSSION: National research shows that adolescents are at a higher risk of being a victim of crime or committing a criminal act between 3:00 p.m. to 6:00 p.m. on a school day than any other time. Beginning in Fiscal Year(FY) 2001, a multi-disciplinary task force consisting of City officials, school district personnel and related service providers conducted extensive research and developed a coordinated program for schools throughout the city that have documented juvenile crime problems. This program supplements existing programs and includes a myriad of activities, such as academics, arts, athletics and other enhancement programs. Since that time, the city of Fort Worth, funded by appropriations from the Crime control and Prevention District, has dedicated funding on an annual basis to continue the program. The adopted Fiscal Year 2013 Crime Control and Prevention District budget has appropriated the amount of $1,600,000.00 for the After-School Program. Participating school districts include Fort Worth, Crowley, White Settlement and Keller, of which all After-School Programs are implemented in schools located within the city of Fort Worth. The Fort Worth Independent School District will provide matching funds in the amount of$1.'1 million. Funding will be allocated as follows to each Independent School District(ISD) in FY 2013: • Fort Worth ISD funding in the amount of$1,300,000.00; • Keller ISD funding in the amount of$125,000.00; • Crowley ISD funding in the amount of$125,000.00; and • White Settlement ISD funding in the amount of$50,000.00. Each school district is responsible for day-to-day administration of the After--School Program. The mission of the After-School Program is to provide quality after-school programs in a safe environment that result in educational, physical and social development for elementary, middle and high school students -promoting educational competence and reducing juvenile crime. Each District is required to establish program goals and objectives that are measurable and result in desired program outcomes. Additionally, the After-School Program must ensure that existing programs are not duplicated, or if appropriate, are expanded or complimented as determined by an evaluation of existing programs. http://apps.cfwnet.org/council—Packet/mc_review.asp`?ID-17242&counci1date=912512012 11/212012 M&C Review Page 2 of 2 These Agreements shall not be effective until October 1, 2012 and the City shall not be obligated to make any payments under these Agreements or be otherwise liable for any other obligations until the FY 2013 budget becomes effective.
