United Community Centers, Inc. will work with children ages 4 through 13 in District 2, 8 and 11 areas of Fort Worth. 7. What is the crime/safety problem you are addressing? United Community Centers (UCC) services help directly impact the target group's crime and safety -related issues. As stated in the 2022 Community Strengths and Needs Assessment conducted by Tarrant County Community Youth Development (CYD) and the 4th Quarter Crime Report by the Fort Worth Police Department. Some of the main issues of crime/safety in 76106, 76164, and 76105 are gangs and gang violence, juvenile delinquency, child abuse, and neglect. While not mentioned in the reports, mental well-being is also an issue facing these communities. • Gangs are widespread in the communities. There are over 12 prevalent gangs, with several smaller ones in the area. • The area has one of the city's highest rates of juvenile delinquency referrals, per the Fort Worth Police Department. Out of these referrals, 77% were Hispanic, and 88% of the crimes were either a misdemeanor or a felony. • Neglectful supervision makes up 63% of the child abuse and neglect category in these zip codes. This lack of supervision leads to childhood injuries, impacts school performance, and significantly increases the risk of alcohol abuse and delinquency. • 50% of Tarrant County teen pregnancies are Hispanic. 83% of 76106 and 94% of 76164 residents are Hispanic/Latino. 8. What are the causes of the crime/safety problem identified in the previous question? First, the eligible population who did not graduate from high school was 50% in 76101, 43% in 76105, and 58% in 76164. For adults, this contributes to less employment and lower income levels, and in adolescents, lower education levels lead to a high rate of juvenile delinquency and teen pregnancy. Second, the percentage of residents living below the federal poverty level is 25% in 76106, 27% in 76164, and 24.40% in 76105. This is more than twice the national average; studies show that as the poverty rate increases, so does crime. Third, FWISD has dropout rates that are much higher compared to the state average. For seventh and eighth grades, the annual dropout rate is at 2.2% for the district compared to .9% for the state. For grades 9-12, 4.3% for the district compared to 2.4% for the state. Dropout rates for minority students in the FWISD are also higher than the state average, with 3.9% for Hispanics and 6% for African Americans in FWISD versus 2.8% and 3.5%, respectively. And last, an article from Literacy Mid -South indicates that there is a connection between early low literacy skills and our country's exploding incarceration rates. High school dropouts are 3.5 times more likely than high school graduates to be arrested in their lifetime and 63% more likely to be incarcerated than their peers with four-year college degrees. According to the U.S. Department of Justice, 75% of state prison inmates are classified as low literate or did not complete high school. 9. How does your strategy address those causes? UCC provides opportunities to combat literacy and family stability problems through our Education Literacy Program (ELP) and Family Assistance and Advocacy services. UCC offers a continuum of services to support the children and families in the 76106, 76164, and 76105 areas. These programs and services directly impact these areas' crime and safety challenges. Our ELP (Core Literacy, Ready Readers, and Success by Six) is a research -based small group guided reading program provided in our after -school and all -day summer programs to children ages 4 to 14. This program is a licensed childcare program with a significant focus on literacy. ELP's goal is for every child to learn to read by the end of third grade and to maintain their appropriate reading level through eighth grade. At the end of the 2023 school year, 58% of UCC's students across our programs were at or above their reading level compared to 12% of African Americans and 13% of Hispanics in the FWISD. According to the USDA Economic Research Service, 76105 and 76106 are in low-income areas and have insufficient access to fresh food. UCC's Family Assistance and Advocacy program helps bridge the food gap by providing families with fresh produce, dairy products, and staple shelf food. Additionally, we assist families with resources such as job fairs, referrals to organizations to help pay for utility or rent bills, and use of UCC's computer lab to create resumes or apply online for jobs to become self-sufficient. 10. What measurable impact will your strategy have related to crime and safety? UCC understands that low literacy among our students is the direct issue facing policymakers, educators, and communities across Fort Worth. Working with FWISD, the City of Fort Worth, and other agencies will help solve the literacy crisis and simultaneously help lower crime in our city. Providing literacy intervention for children will improve the health of the underserved neighborhoods. By increasing literacy, we can reduce poverty, increase attendance in school, increase graduation rates, lower crime, and increase the number of people in the labor market, which will affect the health and sustainability of the whole city. According to the Annie E. Casey Foundation, the impact of students reading by the end of third grade directly correlates to success in high school and beyond. Helping parents create language -rich home environments, improving health in children from early childhood to middle school, and collaborating to improve school and parent engagement will begin the road to a more significant impact within the community to help create an atmosphere of reduced crime and safety. Our Family Assistant and Advocacy program will not do away with poverty. We believe our program can provide the resources that will help our families and individuals to become stronger community neighbors and will be able to one day reach towards becoming self-sufficient through our food program and resource advocacy.

Provide a brief summary of your project's activities and objectives (up to 375 characters). UCC will prioritize programs focused on literacy, family empowerment, and building relationships between neighborhood police officers (NPOs), businesses, and schools. UCC has conducted research that shows that poor reading skills, living in poverty, and feeling unsafe can all put children, families, and the community at risk. 6. What is the crime/safety situation the target group faces? Please explain the extent of the problem and what causes it to persist. Support your description with good sources. The Wesley Community Center has served the Northside/Diamond Hill area for over 110 years. Throughout the years, the center has adapted to the changing needs of families in the Diamond Hill and Northside neighborhoods. Wesley has established strong relationships with local police and schools and advocates for the community. According to the Tarrant County Community Youth Development's Community Strengths and Needs Assessment, the area's demographics have remained unchanged. Both zip codes, 76106 and 76164, continue to have a large population of Hispanic and Latino families, with 79% speaking Spanish only. Sadly, the neighborhood has witnessed an increase in juvenile crime due to poverty and limited resources. The high rate of student delinquency, such as truancy and skipping school, exacerbates the issue. When students miss school, they miss out on learning and growth opportunities, perpetuating the cycle of poverty and leading to young people seeking quick cash through criminal activity. The Wesley Community Center is working tirelessly to address these issues and support needy families. It is important to note that the problem persists as students miss school, fail to graduate, and end up without jobs, leading to a lack of respect for others. The Polytechnic Community Center has served the Eastside of Fort Worth for almost half a century. The center was established in partnership with the city of Fort Worth to provide programs to the local community. Two city council members, Ms. Jeanette Martinez and Mr. Chris Nettles, represent the neighborhood. The neighborhood has a median age of 29 to 35, with an average household income of $23,526. Unfortunately, 76105 has only 52% of students in the area graduate high school. Additionally, the FW Police annual report and our monthly Code Blue meetings indicate an increase in mischievous behavior, including car and building vandalism, vagrants living in alleys, and a rise in robberies of local stores. The FWISD has indicated in the news and social media the low attendance in all Fort Worth ISD schools, which is more prevalent in the most needed areas with fewer resources and opportunities for success. 7. What is the target population? Please include characteristics to describe their circumstances and how the crime or safety situation affects them. United Community Centers (UCC) aims to work with children between the ages of 4 and 16 from low-income families, many of whom live with single parents. Students who participate in our programs come from homes with parents struggling to find work and from low education levels. Specifically, 63% of our parents do not have a high school diploma or GED, while only 3% have a higher education diploma or technical certification. Many of the parents have previously been incarcerated, involved in gang life, or were children themselves growing up with grandparents. A lack of neighborhood resources, including food deserts, healthcare access, affordable housing, quality education, job training, and employment opportunities, gives the families a less than safe feeling of living in the neighborhood. Additionally, these environments include lead exposure, family violence, and lack of stability, which have put children and youth in harm's way, resulting in slow social and cognitive development. Children and youth living in the neighborhoods where UCC serves are greatly affected by the high levels of crime and lack of safety in the area. Exposure to crime at a young age often leads to a vicious cycle of academic failure, delinquent behavior, adult criminality, and substance abuse. It is imperative that we work towards creating a safer environment for these children and teens to break this cycle and help them achieve their full potential. 8. What action will you take to resolve the situation? Discuss how you will address the causes of the crime/safety problem described in Question 6. Please include: 1) What are the major activities; 2) How many will benefit; 3) How your project is unique & similar to other efforts; and 4) What sources were used to develop and inform your project. Our neighborhoods have historically faced many issues that our organization cannot resolve independently. However, at UCC, our priority is to take the necessary steps to make our community safe and promote the well-being of our children and youth. To achieve this, UCC aims to improve the literacy skills of 150 low-income students in the City of Fort Worth by using research -based literacy programs. UCC will promote the growth and development of emerging readers, intervene with struggling readers, and ensure the attainment of grade -level reading for as many students as possible. UCC will work closely with students from Pre-K to the fifth and sixth to eighth grades who are significantly below grade reading level. UCC will work with families, FWISD campuses, and the TCU School of Education to enhance student outcomes to meet students' social and emotional needs. We know that children and youth who gain a high school diploma have a greater chance of succeeding in higher education attainment and finding a competitive job that will lead them back to building a safe and productive community. Our afterschool and summer day programs are unique because our primary focus is our literacy program, with a success rate of 58% of our students on or above their reading level. This grant is significant because we will be able to reach students moving into the middle school grade. These students were in 3rd and 4th grade during the pandemic years and are struggling today. These students will not move into high school if they lack the literacy intervention needed for success. According to a study by The American Economic Review, a high percentage of colored incarcerated individuals from low- income neighborhoods did not attain a high school diploma and were educated up to eighth grade. Compared to a higher rate of white incarcerated individuals coming from middle to high -income neighborhoods who had a high school or higher education diploma. The study further indicates through statistics that children and youth from low-income communities have low school attendance and a tendency to find themselves in criminal mischievous behaviors compared to those with higher education and from middle to higher -income neighborhoods. Our goal at UCC is to ensure that our children and youth in the neighborhoods indicated in this grant can build on their education and move away from criminal behaviors that statistically will place them in jail. And to help communities face a better future for themselves, their children, and their youth. Our program is unique because several funders and organizations have asked us and FWISD to bring our programs within the school campuses and to other neighborhoods. The success of our students in reaching grade -level reading is imperative for the future of our city. Both neighborhoods work closely with the Fort Worth Police Department to bring in resources to help bridge the gap between our student's education and our communities' future. 9. What are your anticipated results? Please include how the crime/safety situation will change and how you will measure success. In our literacy program, our students will be assessed three times a year by a certified reading specialist. Our literacy outcomes will achieve the following by the end of the grant year: • 75% of pre -kinder students will be kindergarten -ready • 75% of Kinder will increase at least three reading levels • 75% of our 1 st — 8th grade students will read on or above their appropriate grade level. • All our students will achieve an 80% attendance rate at our community centers. Students who attend our program year- round (including our all -day summer program) have more success in achieving academic goals than those students who do not attend our intense literacy program) UCC will use the Fountas & Pinnell Benchmark Assessment System (BAS) to measure reading levels for all students. UCC uses the Fountas & Pinnell Benchmark Assessment System (BAS) to measure reading levels. The BAS is used to measure children's independent and instructional reading levels. This system assesses the accuracy, fluency, and comprehension of students individually. The student must score 95% on all three factors before they are judged to have mastered that level. The BAS utilizes a "Text Level Ladder of Progress." The levels run from A to Z, with grade -level goals assigned to various letters. For example, the levels for a Kindergartner are A to D. A first grader should be reading texts between levels E through J. Our education specialists are experts in the BAS system. BAS has been well -researched in the field of education. We are very aware that the impact of a good education has the probability of keeping children and youth out of criminal behavior. Keeping children and youth focused in school, afterschool, and summer programming and giving the proper resources to parents, children, and youth will help families succeed in a healthier future. UCC will record students' attendance, create a self -assessment for students, and create a parent and community survey. • 80% of students will attend the afterschool and summer program four days a week. (Using ProCare software to keep track). • 55% of parents will attend a neighborhood monthly meeting with an NPO or another city staff to speak on community needs (signup sheet with date and hours of attendance) • 55% of parents will join a Citizen on Patrol group in Fort Worth's 76105 and 76106 areas (Signup sheet with date of Blue Code event that indicates of parent attended and joined) 10. Why is your agency suited to lead this project? Please include your agency's experience, mission, partnerships, and nature of your services. United Community Centers was established by individuals who wanted to serve and empower their community. The City Mission Board, located at the United Methodist Church in Fort Worth, employed a missionary in 1908 to conduct relief programs and evangelism. These programs were initially held at railroad stops and private homes until the Wesley House was established in 1909, the first center of United Community Centers. 1938, the Bethlehem Center was opened to provide childcare services for working parents. United Community Centers joined United Way in 1965. The Polytechnic Center was established as the final facility for United Community Centers in 1975. The organization's mission has stayed consistent throughout the years: "Guided by Christian Principles, we serve and empower those in need." Today, the mission is executed through programs designed to achieve measurable improvements in the lives of the children and families served by UCC. In 2006, UCC initiated a capital campaign to build new centers. Since 2014, UCC has implemented the literacy program at all three community centers with a tremendous success rate. Fort Worth ISD has asked UCC several times to bring our literacy program to afterschool on campuses; we have consulted with several afterschool programs to share our success. UCC can bridge families' education with their children by forming partnerships with school campuses to ensure the success of our students. United Community has a great relationship with the Fort Worth police department and collaborates with them each year on the annual Night Out, Code Blue events, neighborhood Halloween awareness, quarterly carnivals, and many other active programs. 11. What is your agency's mission? Please include how this project fits and how this project was developed. UCC is "Guided by Christian Principals, we serve and empower those in need." UCC believes in serving and empowering individuals to become the best version of themselves, using principles of living a healthy life that brings unity to families and communities, which will help UCC move students forward. Allowing children and youth to hope for a future through their education will turn and give them hope for their community. Our mission to serve and empower makes our project powerful and vital. We do not want our children and youth to be trapped in the cycle of criminal behavior because they cannot achieve an education; we want to empower them to believe in themselves and be excited to receive their diplomas. In 2011, a funder asked the CEO of UCC about the impact of their afterschool program on the students. The answer was clear: the difference had to be in the student's education. UCC started an investigation and research to identify the areas where the children struggled most in math, science, and reading. With the help of a retired educator, Ms. Cynthia Hernandez, a retired FWISD principal and long-time reading teacher, UCC decided to focus on literacy as it was the most needed subject in the communities we served. After seeing the low scores of their students on the STAR test, UCC purchased a curriculum and began to train their staff, from afterschool caregivers to non -certified teachers. The work was long and hard, so they brought in three more retired literacy coaches from FWISD to assist us. Today, we serve over 300 children and youth in our afterschool program, working with three literacy coaches and three early literacy coaches, all certified teachers. 12. What geographic area will you serve? Please include the relevant council districts, zip codes, or neighborhoods that will be served by your project. United Community Centers (UCC) is pleased to work with District 2 Councilman Mr. Carlos Flores. Mr. Flores has visited our facility, and we are thrilled to have his support for our programs. Recently, our building was vandalized, and Mr. Flores played a vital role in ensuring the safety of the Wesley Center neighborhood by coordinating with Fort Worth patrols. District 2 covers the Northside and Diamond Hill areas in the zip codes of 76105 and 76164. Furthermore, we will also be working in District 8, where our physical building is located, and District 11, where the schools we serve are located. We have already established a relationship with Mr. Chris Nettles from District 8, who is knowledgeable about our programs and the work we do in the community. Ms. Jeanette Martinez, a newcomer to our area, has toured all our schools and is actively involved in our neighborhood programs. We are very excited to have her come to our facility so she can be more acquainted with our programs. UCC will work in the Fort Worth Polytechnic Pyramid zip code 76105 area. 13. What other funding have you secured (or requested) on behalf of this project? Please include a description of how you intend to continue these services after funding expires. UCC is committed to providing the best support to our students, and we are fully dedicated to this program. We have contacted several private funders and government and city funding to help with our budget. We plan to use the Program grant funding to enroll more students and extend the program by an extra hour in the evening. UCC is committed to findinq other funders to continue programminq when the fundinq expires. 14. If applicable, how will your project address a CCPD Special Emphasis?
