SUBJECT: (ALL) Authorize Execution of Contracts with Big Thought, Christ's Haven for Children,
Rivertree Academy, SafeHaven of Tarrant County, and Unbound North Texas From the
Crime Control Prevention District Community Based Programs Fund in the Total Program
Amount of Up to $1,500,000.00 to Operate Crime Prevention Programming that Benefits
Fort Worth Residents
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council authorize the execution of contracts with Big Thought, Christ's
Haven for Children, Rivertree Academy, SafeHaven of Tarrant County, and Unbound North Texas
from the Crime Control Prevention District Community Based Programs Fund in the total program
amount of up to $1,500,000.00 to operate crime prevention programming that benefits Fort Worth
residents.
DISCUSSION:
Crime Control and Prevention District (CCPD) Community Based Programs provide funding to
agencies that are recommended by a selection panel and then approved by the CCPD Board of
Directors (Board). This panel consisted of staff and community representatives who evaluated the
proposals to ensure minimum qualifications were met and that the proposed projects met one or
more of the goals of the Board.
On November 29, 2022, the Board reviewed and approved the recommendation to fund five crime
prevention programs. The following programs' awards total up to $1,500,000.00 and are funded by
the CCPD Community Based Fund (25100). The five programs will have a contract term of January
1, 2023 through December 31, 2025 with no renewals.
Funding will be allocated as follows to each agency in Fiscal Year 2023 on a reimbursement basis:
Big Thought ($300,000.00) - Implementing the program "Preventing Juvenile Incarceration Through
Creative Solutions" to serve the adjudicated youth of Fort Worth. This seven-week program occurs at
Texas Wesleyan University and is taught by professional artist mentors using each participant's track
to teach workforce and college preparedness skills. The curriculum combines social and emotional
learning skills and the fundamentals of the artistic process to establish an immersive experience. At
the end of the program, the youth produce their own performing arts production or visual arts
exhibition. This results in positive gains in social-emotional skills like engagement, cooperation,
empathy, self-regulation, and goal attainment. The program will serve youth in Council Districts 5 and
8.
Christ's Haven for Children ($300,000.00) - Funding will expand the Family Resource Center to serve
at-risk youth and families in Fort Worth. The Family Resource Center provides parent/caregiver
education trainings, weekly food boxes, counseling services, and "Foster Family Care Packages"
containing food, toiletries, and clothing items. This program will serve participants in Council District
7.
Rivertree Academy ($300,000.00) - This is an expansion to the Behavior Management Program to
serve Fort Worth students, grades Pre-K to fifth. The Behavior Management Program uses a

framework of interventions and supports to address students' behavioral and academic challenges.
The MTSS (Multi-Tiered System of Support) framework involves evaluating and placing each student
in one of three tiers that correlate with the academic and behavioral hurdles the child is experiencing.
Mentoring, behavior management plans, one-on-one counseling, chapel services, tutoring, and
restorative practice sessions are a few of the services offered to help to serve students both
academically and behaviorally. This program will serve participants in Council District 3.
SafeHaven of Tarrant County ($300,000.00) - Implementation of the SafeHorizons Mentoring
Program. Youth in home environments with domestic violence are at increased risk of modeling those
same behaviors as they grow older. The SafeHorizons Program focuses on youth ages 5— 17 who
come to the shelter with their families and provides them with support and mentoring services to work
past this trauma. The program will serve participants from all Council Districts.
Unbound North Texas (formerly Unbound Fort Worth) ($300,000.00) - This is an expansion to
programming through the use of the Outcomes for Survivors of Human Trafficking (OHTS) tool.
Unbound North Texas provides 24/7 resources and trauma services to survivors of human trafficking
to aid them in their restorative journey. Advocates work closely with clients through motivational
interviewing techniques to educate them on the signs of trafficking and develop safety plans to avoid
revictimization or criminal activity. The program will serve participants from all Council Districts.
Funding is budgeted in the CCPD Community Based Programs Department's CCPD Community
Based Fund for the purpose of funding the CCPD Community Based Program FY23 project, as
appropriated.
This M&C will serve ALL COUNCIL DISTRICTS.
