Community Works
Date: April 30, 2008
Time: 9:00 - 4:00
Community Works is an interactive program through which teachers, school resource officers, administrators and community group representatives are able to provide youth with teaching empowerment and life skills with the goals of reducing teens’ risk of becoming victims of crime and giving them the opportunity to give back something meaningful to their community. The program uses 31 individual topics, which may be taught in conjunction with one another or as stand-alone units. The culmination of the program is a service project designed and implemented by the youth. Where possible, it is strongly encouraged for a school administrator to attend with the applicant. This service project can take on many different forms, including but not limited to: graffiti removal and community beautification, cross-age teaching, public service ads and peer teaching.
