Program Goal(s) and Objective(s): Please provide the goals and objectives for the year two implementation of your Title V Abstinence Education Grant. These may be revised from year one, or new goals and/or objectives. Program Goal: To reduce out-of-wedlock pregnancy and sexually transmitted diseases in youth ages 10-17, including youth of color, low income youth, and youth with special needs in Weld County. Educational Goal: To increase knowledge, skills,and support to youth ages 10-17 in Weld County for delaying sexual activity, and remaining abstinent until marriage. Process Objective 1: By June 1,2002,complete the school-based curricula training in at least two of our current school partners. Process Objective 2: By June 1,2002,advocate with Weld County School District 6,to introduce an abstinence only curricula element within the district. Process Objective 3: By June 1,2002,implement a peer mentoring student support program in at least one partnering high school with an abstinence/relationship education curricula in place. Process Objective 4: By June 1, 2002, implement the Abstinence Education Clinical Intervention in at least one nursing clinic for adolescent clients at the Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment. Process Objective 5: By June 1,2002, develop a community-based after-school youth development and peer mentoring program in the Greeley area. 2 Impact Objective 1: By June 1 2002, show a positive change in participating youths'knowledge of the a)social,psychological and health gains realized from remaining sexually abstinent,b)consequences of premarital sex, and c)how alcohol and drug use increases vulnerability to premarital sex in at least two partner schools. Impact Objective 2: By June 1,2002,show a positive change in participating youths' skills to delay sexual activity and remain abstinent in at least two partner schools. Impact Objective 3: By June 1 2002,show a positive change in participating youths' knowledge of the support systems to delay sexual activity and remain abstinent in at least two partner schools. 3. Briefly describe the target population(s). Our target populations remain essentially the same. They are: a) Weld County youth ages 10-17, b) low income youth c) youth of color d) youth with special needs e) parents. a) Youth ages 10-17 remain our basic target population, due to the teen fertility rate, and the age of initiation of sexual activity within our county. Particularly among our youth of color,the age of sexual debut can be as young as 10 years of age. To reach these young people, we need to use mechanisms to teach them the knowledge and skills, and provide them support before this pattern of sexual activity develops,which means by ten years of age, among our higher risk youth. The overall 1999 teen fertility rate among Weld county youth was 19.2 for 10-17 year olds, compared to the overall Colorado rate of 11.5 for 10-17 year olds. b) Low income youth are a priority for abstinence education within our county. There remains continuing links between family income and likelihood of teenage births. According to the Alan Guttmacher Institute,young people from families with incomes less than$20000 are more likely to give birth as teens than their higher income peers. c) The largest group of youth of color within Weld County is Hispanic youth. These youth are a priority population due to the high teen fertility rate and number of births among this group. 1999 State Vital Statistics records indicate that of 199 live births to youth ages 10-17 in Weld County, 142 were to Hispanic girls, or 71.36 percent. d) Special needs youth include youth with learning/developmental disabilities, adjudicated youth,youth out of school, and homeless youth. Many of these young people are also low income youth,and youth of color. Our main vehicle for reaching these youth this past year has been the alternative high school, where we now have two teachers trained and enthusiastically implementing our curricula. We are planning additional means to further reach these youth in the upcoming year. e) Parents are targeted, in recognition that they are the most significant influence and role models for their children,as well as the primary educators for their children regarding family matters, including sexual norms. Family dynamics that have been identified as strong links to teens' delayal of sexual activity include a high degree of parental/family connection and parental disapproval of adolescent involvement in sexual activity or use of contraception, according to the National Longitudinal Study on Adolescent Health, as reported in The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1997. We are reaching parents through our nursing clinics,Hispanic Outreach task force, and other community forums in which we participate. We plan to further develop our parental component in the upcoming year. 3 Program Abstract 4. Briefly describe the program's services. IF the program has changed curricula,format or major elements for implementation in Year Two,please provide details. (Additional pages may be used to provide supplemental information) Year 2001-2002 for Building Bright Futures will be a year of further program solidification,with one area of expansion. The foundation of our program will remain our school-based program elements. Our school-based curricula remain essentially the same as they have been for the last year. We will continue to sponsor the following curricula for our partner schools: 1) No Apologies: The truth about life,love and sex 2) Loving Well 3) Character First 4) STARS Peer Mentoring We will work to further strengthen and solidify our current school partners,by continuing to provide the training and support they need to implement our basic complement of curricula,which include Loving Well,No Apologies and peer mentoring . Character education is already implemented by most of our teachers through their district resources. With staffing changes at some of our schools,this past year has been one of rebuilding,which will continue into next year. Several opportunities for training were provided to teachers this year,and challenges arose around finding a mutually available time between the training provider's scheduling availability and the teachers' in-school time commitments. We have also found that a significant amount of time on the schools'part has been dedicated to preparing for the Colorado Student Achievement Program(CSAP)testing and accountability measures. We have confirmed with our current school partners their continuing interest and commitment to teaching abstinence until marriage curricula,and their continuing interest in adding the basic curricula elements to their school coursework. We will specifically focus on providing the No Apologies training for our school partners who do not currently implement either No Apologies or WAIT Training,and then continue to provide the peer mentoring training and support, once they have No Apologies in place. To overcome the challenges we faced with scheduling training workshops,we will be conducting more training workshops in-house, which will allow for greater flexibility in accommodating the teachers' schedules. To further the message of abstinence until marriage among Greeley City youth,we will advocate with Weld County School District 6,who will be reviewing the district's health education curricula this year. We feel fortunate that the president of the District 6 school board is our county Health Department Director, and plan to work in partnership with him to advocate for the adoption of an abstinence-only curricula more widely within the district. The district's time frame for their curricula review,and obvious outcome of their process,greatly determine whether Building Bright Futures will be able to expand our school-based elements beyond the district alternative high school and a charter school, into new schools in District 6. A second area of solidification of our school-based elements will be in peer mentoring. We are thrilled to have three schools now ready to implement a school-based peer mentor element,and are on target to have adult leaders from these three schools trained in the Friends First STARS peer mentoring model this spring. Again, opportunities were afforded eligible schools throughout this past year,and scheduling conflicts with our largely rural districts prevented them from attending. It is our program philosophy that No Apologies or WAIT training should be in place in the school first,before implementing the peer mentor element,to lay a solid foundation and begin to build the youth culture that is supportive of abstinence until marriage as a lifestyle decision. In addition to the Friends First STARS model,the Weld county health department has developed a peer mentoring program in-house. We will be reviewing this program early in the next year,and offering compatible elements and resources to our partnering schools,to further solidify their peer mentor program elements. In addition to the STARS adult leader training workshop coming up this spring,Building Bright Futures will provide training opportunities and in-house activities for youth peer mentors from the eligible schools this summer,to lay the groundwork for the kick-off of their respective programs in the fall. The third area of solidification of our program for the up-coming year will be in our Abstinence Education Clinical Intervention in our health department nursing clinic. We have had several unforeseen hurdles to overcome in 4 implementing this element. The nursing division,along with the entire health department,has undergone a lengthy process of strategic planning. Related to this,we have had several changes in staff,and composition of the nursing teams,including evaluating and adjusting the nursing clinic schedules, and services. Additional challenges have arisen,even after training has been provided, in finding ways to accommodate the sometimes differing program requirements of our Title V program, and the Title X philosophy that is the basis of several of our nursing clinics. We have addressed many of these hurdles and challenges by identifying a highly motivated and educated bi-lingual volunteer,whom we have been training in the Medical Institute's protocol for motivational interviewing to promote abstinence in the clinical setting. Along with our Hispanic Outreach Specialist, she will be piloting our clinical intervention in one of our clinics through the rest of this spring. We plan to further solidify this program element in Year 2,by making this a paid position, and possibly expanding it into a second nursing clinic. A new element that we are quite excited about adding, is a collaborative endeavor with Tobacco Free Weld County, another health department primary prevention program, and Greeley City Youth Recreation,which sponsors after-school programs,housed at several schools in lower-income neighborhoods within Greeley. We have pursued this initiative for several reasons, including: 1) It is another way that we can reach young people within Greeley city, independently of District 6's participation. 2) The population Greeley City youth recreation serve through their after-school programs is largely Hispanic youth, from lower incomes,and single parent households. This is a wonderful way to further reach our higher risk young people. They work with children from kindergarten age through high school,so we can reach these children at the younger ages, in keeping with our primary prevention philosophy. 3) It provides a way for Building Bright Futures to establish more of a direct community presence,and direct involvement in the delivery of abstinence education,through expanding our community-based element. Through this collaborative effort,we will create a youth development program,similar to the Rites of Passage program in Phoenix,Arizona. Using the input from the outreach strategies subcommittee of the Hispanic Outreach Taskforce, and with the involvement of interested community adults,including parents,we will create a youth development program encompassing experiential learning activities,that are culturally grounded,builds self-esteem and pride in the youth's identities,as Hispanic youth, and teaches them the reasons to choose abstinence until marriage as a lifestyle, teaches them the life skills they need in a culturally compatible context to make such a choice,and provides the support they need to sustain it over time. We will plan to build on the curricula we have used in our schools, and expand upon it as needed,and we plan to recruit local community insiders with expertise in various areas of our curricula to be guest teachers in part of the subject areas. Through direct oversight by Building Bright Futures staff,we will develop a community-based peer mentor program as part of the community support for abstinence as a lifestyle among our youth development participants,to further impact the youth culture toward choosing abstinence until marriage as a lifestyle. Letters of collaboration from Tobacco Free Weld County and Greeley City Youth Recreation are included. 5. Briefly describe how the program will monitor and evaluate its impact and process objectives. Building Bright Futures has contracted with an evaluation specialist to help evaluate our program. The purpose of the evaluation is to obtain feedback on attainment of objectives,to identify strengths and weaknesses,and to contribute to the base of knowledge about abstinence education program design. Key questions have been identified to guide the evaluation. They are: Process Questions: • Was the program implemented as planned? • Did program interventions reach the intended target populations? • Was the program satisfactory to all parties,including participants? • Do perceptions of feasibility, acceptability,and efficacy of the program differ among program staff,teachers, and youth? 5 Impact Questions: • Has there been a change in knowledge,attitude,or behavior of students? • Does the program lead to a change in intermediate outcomes? • Are intermediate outcomes feasible and realistic? • What are realistic long-term outcomes? Building Bright Futures will monitor and evaluate our process objectives through periodic review of our work plan. In addition,our evaluation contractor will obtain qualitative feedback focused on the previously mentioned process questions from other people involved with the program, including teachers and students. Evaluation information and tools for the clinical model,peer support and youth development components will be developed as needed during this grant year as well. Impact objectives will be monitored and evaluated using two tools—the BBF Program Outcome Logic Model and the BBF Student Pre and Post Questionnaire. Both items were developed over the past year to help identify program impact and outcome objectives(see Attachments). This year's impact objectives will measure whether or not initial outcomes are being obtained in at least two partner school abstinence programs. The program's impact objectives have been somewhat modified this year compared to last year. Specific targets have been removed until one year of data is collected on changes in knowledge,attitude,and skills of participating youth. The impact objective pertaining to youths' intentions to delay sexual activity was removed this year until further piloting of the survey tools is conducted. While this is indeed a goal of the program and an item we would eventually like to measure,we first want to see if the school-based curricula programs lead to changes in our identified initial outcomes before measuring changes in this intermediate outcome. We are asking preliminary questions about youths' intentions to remain abstinent on the post program BBF Student Questionnaire. 6. Will there be any changes in program staffing? If so,please provide details. ❑ Yes ❑ No Yes,we will have changes in program staffmg. Now that the work of the Hispanic Outreach Task Force is finishing,we will be moving into working with an on-going subcommittee who will be charged with helping us implement outreach strategies and develop our community-based youth development program. In order for our Program Coordinator to be able to have more direct involvement in the community in advocating for abstinence only education within District 6, taking the lead in working with the outreach subcommittee to develop and execute outreach strategies within our communities,to work with our community collaborators in developing our youth development program,and providing more in-house training for our school partners,we are shifting the responsibilities for organizing the details of the school-based curricula training to our Hispanic Outreach Specialist. Our Hispanic Outreach Specialist will also take on some responsibilities in carrying out the Clinical intervention in our nursing clinic. We also plan to add a third.25 FTE position. This individual will work as a peer counselor in the clinic,and assist with the development of the youth development program. Additional Budget Narrative: Estimated Total Unspent Grant Funds from Year 2000-2001: We estimate having the specified grant funds remaining in the following categories: Training Fees: WAIT Training/No Apologies $90.00 Loving Well $600.00 Character First $500.00 STARS $110.00 6 Clinical Model $1100.00 Substitute Teacher Pay $1680.00 Teacher meals while attending training: $560.00 Contractual/Fee-for-services fees: Technical Assistance Friends First $480.00 Monthly consult Technical Assistance Friends First $600.00 Launching peer support network Speaker Fees: Friends First $2600.00 Youth Support $1500.00 Operating Expenses: Books and Curriculum $1928.00 Character First Posters $2000.00 Character Cards $750.00 Songbooks $36.00 CD's $60.00 Travel: Travel for out-of-state speakers $983.00 Total estimated unspent grant funds: $15577.00 Justification for Unspent Funds: Most of the unspent grant funds are attributed to two factors: 1. We have not trained as many teachers this year as we had anticipated,and 2. We have been delayed approximately nine months in training eligible schools in peer mentoring. As discussed earlier, several opportunities for training in all our sponsored curricula were afforded our school partners. We did not have the response we had planned for,due to these identified reasons: 1. Difficulties in scheduling we encountered between the trainers' availability for training dates,and/or the timing of training workshops sponsored by outside organizations. 2. Difficulties with finding available substitute teachers. 3. Reduced availability on teachers' part to attend training workshops, due to time and efforts being expended in preparing for the Colorado Student Assessment Program(CSAP)testing and accountability requirements. 4. School partners already using some curricula made available through their district resources. In order to better accommodate our school partners' schedules,we are planning to hold our own in-house training for No Apologies this coming year. Associated with training fewer teachers this year than planned,is the fact that less funds have been spent for substitutes and teacher meals while attending training workshops. Fewer funds were also spent on Loving Well textbooks, for the same reason. 7 Closely associated with the first factor, is the fact that we have been delayed almost nine months in training and therefore implementing a peer mentoring element in our schools. The first two training dates scheduled by our outside training provider did not coordinate at all with our eligible school partners' schedules. As a result,we have not been able to have any of our students in an abstinence-until-marriage peer mentoring program this academic year. We are very pleased that during this ensuing year,we have had an additional school become eligible to receive such training, and are now on target to train adult leaders from three of our schools this April. Also related to this factor,are some of the speaker fees,contractual fees-for-service,and out-of-state speaker travel fees that are unspent. These were ear-marked for launching our peer support program in our participating school last fall,and for the above-discussed reasons,this,too,has been delayed. Our character education training provider changed their fee somewhat. Related to this is the fact that several of our schools and/or teachers already use a character education curricula. Their training and resources were provided by their districts,so they already felt these curricula needs were met. Others felt character education to be non-essential,when compared to teaching core curricula, as specified by CSAP. Those teachers that did participate in the Character First workshop found it to be very worthwhile,the materials excellent,and the trainer terrific. They have had difficulty implementing the curricula,due to the expense required to train their entire staff. The training provider does not allow the monthly character education newsletter to be copied and distributed,nor sold independently from the curriculum training,but rather wants to provide training to everyone in a school,which they find to be prohibitive. Therefore,they have not moved forward in implementing the curricula,but rather,have looked for other avenues to teach character education. The funds we have remaining in Character First were ear-marked for start-up supplemental materials for our schools. Trainer fees remaining from the Clinical Model workshop held last fall resulted from changes that were made by the training provider in their fee,after we had submitted our grant budget for last year. They changed from a fee per person to a flat fee for this workshop. Lastly,we have technical assistance trainer fees remaining that were ear-marked for technical assistance from an in-state sister organization. Last summer,after much consideration and discussion among program and health department staff, and in consultation with our state director, we made the decision to establish more independence as a program,including independence from this sister organization. When we made this decision,we also discontinued our monthly consultations with this organization. Therefore,these grant dollars are remaining. Impact of Unspent Funds on Program Goals: We anticipate experiencing the following impacts from the unspent funds on our 2000-2001 Program Goals: • Goal 1): By June 1, 2001, strengthen and expand the abstinence education programs by adding at least one new teacher and two new curricula to each of the five school systems in Weld county. We have trained at least one new teacher in each of our five participating school systems. Some of this has been due to re-training in previous curricula that has been in place, due to staff changes in four of the schools. We have not added two new curricula to all of the schools;instead,we have added one new curricula in four of our schools. Related to this,we had planned to train six teachers at minimum,in our relationship education curricula,(now No Apologies),six teachers in Loving Well, and ten teachers in Character First. In total,we have provided training to five teachers in a relationship education curricula,two teachers in Loving Well,and three teachers in Character First. 8 • Goal 2): By November 1, 2000, implement the STARS peer support program at one participating high school with an abstinence education program by training two students and two adults in the program. At the beginning of this contract year,we had two schools eligible to take this second step by implementing a peer mentoring component in their abstinence programs. As discussed previously,two opportunities to participate were made available to both schools. Neither training dates were compatible at all with the schools' and teachers' schedules. Since peer mentoring is based,among other things, on a shadow leadership model,with adults leading and teaching indirectly the peer mentors,we did not move forward with recruiting students to attend the companion peer training,without adult leaders in their schools already trained and ready to move forward with the program. As also previously discussed,we are very pleased that we now have a third school ready to begin a peer mentoring element, and are on target to train adult leaders from three schools in the STARS model this April. By the time we begin implementation in the schools this fall,we anticipate that we will have had a delay of approximately eleven to twelve months in the completion of Goal 2. • Goal 3): By January 15,2001,expand the current school-based abstinence education program into an alternative high school in Greeley by training two teachers and implementing three curricula. We are very pleased that we have fully met this goal. The teachers from our alternative high school have eagerly participated in training workshops. We now have two teachers trained. One is trained in both WAIT training and No Apologies, and the other is trained in Loving Well and No Apologies. They are eager to participate in the next step of peer mentoring. This is especially gratifying because students at this school are from our higher risk groups. • Goal 4): By June 1,2001, develop a network of individuals to 1)evaluate materials, and 2)provide feedback on programs and curricula by hosting at least five community meetings in the Hispanic communities in Weld County. We are on target to meet this goal. The Hispanic Outreach Task Force is very enthusiastic about the opportunity to participate in this way, and they have already given us valuable information regarding the Hispanic culture in Weld County,to make available to our school and community partners. They are giving us valuable feedback that we can use to fine tune the curricula to be culturally sensitive for our Hispanic students. They are also very enthusiastic about participating in identifying outreach strategies and some are interested in assisting us to implement them in this upcoming year. • Goal 5): By June 1,2001,participate in Abstinence Awareness Week,and five other community events and health fairs for students,parents,and community members in Weld County. We are also on target to meet this goal, with a modification. We have participated in three such events to date, and plan to participate in two more before the end of the grant year. The modification we have made is to plan our Abstinence Awareness Week activities to come at a later date than originally planned. This is due to the fact that Abstinence Awareness Week had originally been planned to be the same week as Public Health Week. The health department has many activities already planned for this week, one in partnership with Greeley City Youth Recreation. They will also be partnering with us in bringing in a guest speaker for Abstinence Awareness Week, and doing both events the same week was not realistic for either organization. We plan to sponsor a speaker to do a guest presentation of WAIT training for eighth through twelfth grade students in the Greeley City Youth Recreation after-school program, as well as a second presentation on a different topic for fifth through seventh grade students. We are also publicizing it through-out Greeley city for any interested youth or parent who might want to attend. 9 • Goal 6): By November 1, 2000, implement the Abstinence Education Clinical Model in two nursing clinics at Weld County Department of Public Health and Environment for adolescent clients. We have been delayed approximately six months in meeting this goal. As discussed earlier in this narrative, several unforeseen hurdles hare arisen that we are still working to fully overcome. First,the nursing division and the entire health department have gone through a lengthy and thorough strategic planning process,which has impacted the nursing clinics. They have had several changes in staff, staff assignments,scheduling and modifications of services. A great deal of time and focus has gone into making these changes to their existing programs and services. They have also had many questions about how our abstinence education clinical model will be implemented, and how it is different than the services already provided. Finally,challenges regarding accommodating the diverging requirements of Title V, compared to the Title X foundation of the clinics,have also needed to be addressed. It has taken time to work through these challenges, and time for the nursing staff changes to be settled enough to add something new. We have addressed the diverging program requirements by recruiting and"hiring"a well-educated,motivated,bi-lingual volunteer,who has begun training to be a clinic peer counselor,and to work with our Hispanic Outreach Specialist in piloting the intervention in one clinic. She is young,and relates well to the young people we see in this clinic,and is also thoroughly persuaded as to the merits and value of promoting abstinence until marriage. We plan to have both individuals ready to begin seeing patients in the clinic starting the first of May,2001. Additional Scope of Work for Unspent Funds: We would like to use the unspent funds from 2000-2001 in the following ways: • Retain these line items as specified to support the launching of our school-based peer mentoring program: Contractual/Fees-for-Service: Technical Assistance from Friends First $600.00 Travel: Travel for out-of-state speakers $983.00 Speaker Fees: Youth Support speaker $1500.00 Total: $3083.00 • Retain the following amounts in the same categories to put toward the completion of our school-based curricula training: Training Fees: Loving Well $150.00 Character First $250.00 STARS $110.00 Teacher Expenses: Substitute Teacher Pay $540.00 Teacher Meals while attending training $120.00 Operating Expenses: Books and Curricula—Loving Wells texts $400.00 Total: $1570.00 10 • Apply the following amounts toward expanding our scope of work: On-site visit by Program Coordinator to observe Phoenix,AZ Rites of Passage program first-hand: Airfare $400.00 Hotel $300.00 Rental Car $150.00 Total: $850.00 Sponsor the Medical Institute's Changemakers Conference: Partial Conference Cost: $10074.00 Total: $10074.00 Total Itemized Amount to Carryover to 2001-2002: $15577.00 Budget Justification for Changemakers Conference: Bringing in the MISH Changemakers Conference is admittedly ambitious. We believe it is justified for these reasons: Our county continues to have one of the highest teen pregnancy rates in the state, and particularly, one of the highest Hispanic teen pregnancy rates. Weld County needs greater impact than a school-based program can achieve alone.This is why we are expanding into a community-based program. This is also why we are taking an entire program year to have the dialogue with the largest school district,the district with the majority of Weld county's population, School District 6,regarding abstinence-only sexuality education. This is also why we are taking an entire program year to plan with key community-based partners for our Greeley-city after-school youth development program. School District 6 has not been a program partner with us to date,in large part because the community discussion the last time the sexuality education curricula at the district was reviewed,the debate got so heated,with so much community ill-feeling,there were reportedly fist fights in the halls of the district administration building. Emotions ran very high, camps were divided up,and the issue became so clouded, there was no room for reasoned, reasonable discussion. Meanwhile,the teen STD and birth-rate in our county has continued to rise. We must begin to change the culture and de facto norms and mores of the county regarding teen sexuality, STD's, and pregnancy. This requires community-based,multi-pronged interventions and strategies,beginning first with community leaders on the large scale. We must engage the community passion and political will to address this issue,and to create the opening and momentum to have the reasoned dialogue. We must consider seriously as a whole community,the viability of abstinence as an achievable, practical solution to the issues of Weld County's teen pregnancy and STD rates. The Changemakers Conference is such an intervention. It is geared toward fostering changes in the knowledge, and attitudes of key community leaders, critical stakeholders,who have the ability to influence others, and other organizations,to adopt a position of proactive support for abstinence until marriage as the preferred lifestyle for unmarried young people. The Changemakers Conference is designed specifically to impact the larger-system level in a community. The timing for such an ambitious undertaking is synergistic at present. There are currently developing within our county,two citizen-driven action groups that are dedicated to addressing the issue of teen pregnancy. It is unclear 11 at present,what their positions are regarding abstinence versus safer sex sexuality education. A community- driven conference will be held this May,designed to gather community members' input and yield decisions and action plans regarding current issues considered by the community as needing to be addressed. One of the breakout sessions will address the topic of teenage pregnancy and STD's. The community interest in the subject is gaining momentum again,and now is the time to begin to influence and educate key leaders and groups about the message of abstinence. Once this community-driven conference is held,the community interest will remain high for a period of time. This is the opening we need to bring in the Changemakers Conference.
