Proposal Narrative
What is the mission of your agency?
Rivertree Academy's mission is to educate under-resourced students to live life well: following
Jesus, thriving academically and transforming their communities.
What is the partner's priority for this project?
The partner's priority for this project is Violent Crime Prevention.
What is the crime problem you are addressing?
Rivertree Academy serves students 3 years old through 6th gradel who largely live in the Lake
Como neighborhood and surrounding West Fort Worth area.Our school demographics are
primarily minority students; African American and Hispanic, from low income families. Our
students face difficult circumstances at home, including trauma and exposure to multiple
Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs). Many of our students are growing up in homes where
there is only one parent (mostly single mothers), a member of their household is incarcerated,
they have witnessed domestic violence toward a family member, and/or a member of their
household suffers from alcoholism. All of these factors contribute to inconsistent and unstable
households. The constant exposure to stress deeply impacts academic performance, and in
severe cases, students may eventually drop out of school. As a result, the likelihood of
involvement in crime and violence, alcohol and drug use and engaging in risky behaviors
increases significantly. Early academic and behavior intervention in the life of children is critical.
The crime and safety problems our students experience are directly related to an extreme lack
of resources and support for at -risk and disadvantaged children and families. If the academic,
mental, and behavioral health needs are not directly addressed early in a child's life, the cost to
the child, the family, and the community compounds. It is vital that we invest in programming
designed to keep our students safe, so they can grow to reach their full potential.
How has your strategy addressed those causes?
The main cause of crime directly correlates to the amount of adverse childhood experiences
(ACEs) children experience at a young age. Research shows that the more ACES a child is
exposed to, the more likely they are to struggle academically and behaviorally. Because a vast
majority of our students have been exposed to four or more ACEs, they suffer from significant
learning and behavioral challenges that can result in low academic performance, and can be
statistically linked to potential violence -related outcomes as they grow older. To combat this
challenge, Rivertree has developed a Behavior Management Program to effectively break the
cycle of the many adverse circumstances our students experience.
Our Behavior Management Program uses a framework of interventions and supports to address
our students' behavioral and academic challenges. The foundation is a dedicated Behavior
Management Team (BMT) composed of a Head of Student Affairs, Director of Spiritual
Formation, Restorative Practices Coach and Family Engagement Coordinator. Together, they
implement the Multi -Tiered System of Support (MTSS) framework. The MTSS framework
involves evaluating and placing each student in one of three tiers that correlates with the
academic and behavioral hurdles the child is experiencing. The BMT is responsible for
assessing students to see what tier they fall into, working with students who need more
intervention, creating Behavior Intervention Plans for students who need a higher level of
intervention, and helping those students stay or reach lower, more stable tiers. Mentoring,
Behavior Intervention Plans, one-on-one counseling, chapel services, the classroom
communication method CHAMPS, Nurtured Heart approach, and Restorative Practices
sessions are a few of the unique tools we use to serve students both academically and
behaviorally. Our intention in employing these intervention and support methods is to cultivate
empathy, motivation, team problem solving and delayed gratification - all tied to reducing
developmental risk factors for our students. This whole child, trauma informed approach has
allowed us to develop a comprehensive system, rooted in data, that invests in the social,
emotional, spiritual and academic success for every student at Rivertree Academy.
What measurable impact has your strategy created?
Since implementing the Behavior Management Program during the 2021-2022 school year, we
can confidently say that the many interventions we use throughout the school day are
successfully addressing critical student behavior issues stemming from trauma. This system,
uniquely aligned with our core values (Faith, Excellence, Magnanimity, Integrity) and the specific
needs of our student body, has created our most stable and cohesive school culture in history.
Staff turnover is low and enrollment is steadily increasing! Students are learning to implement
key social -emotional learning (SEL) skills, such as self -correction, self -regulation, reconciliation
with peers and expressing empathy towards others.Students feel safe at school thus are excited
to attend school and are motivated to learn. This was directly reflected in our most recent
academic test scores. In December 2025, 75% of our students tested on or above grade level in
Math and 85% tested on or above grade level in reading! Lastly, the positive changes in student
attitude have encouraged greater family involvement, evidenced by a dramatic increase in
father and father -figure participation in our monthly All Pro Dads program and Parent University
programs. These key experiences are the tools that will directly impact future involvement in
crime, break the chains of generational poverty and create a foundation for positive life
outcomes.

DISCUSSION:
Crime Control and Prevention District (CCPD) Emerging Partners Programs implemented Sustainment Grants in efforts to assist agencies with
further strengthening their capacity and development of crime prevention and safety initiatives. Sustainment Grants provide phased financial
support for eligible agencies as they work to sustain impact in needed areas of the community. To be eligible agencies should demonstrate
effective utilization of CCPD funds in addition to addressing a selected Mission Priority.
On January 21, 2026, Christ's Haven for Children, Rivertree Academy, and Unbound Now presented to the Fort Worth Police Department (FWPD)
Budget Committee Board. The three programs were approved for a total amount up to $936,000.00 and will have a contract term of January 1,
2026 through February 28, 2029 with no renewals. The parties may extend the contracts by mutual agreement to accomplish administrative
closeout activities associated with the programs.
Funding will be allocated as follows to each agency in Fiscal Year 2026 on a reimbursement basis:
Christ's Haven for Children ($312,000.00) will continue operations of their 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 serves participants in Council District 7.
Rivertree Academy ($312,000.00) will continue operations of their 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.
Unbound Now ($312,000.00) will continue their program operations 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 Fund for the CCPD Emerging Partners Programs Department for the purpose of funding the
FY26 Emerging Partners project.
FISCAL INFORMATION / CERTIFICATION:
