Include problem identification, problem analysis, action plan/response and evaluation/assessment of the response (including anticipated results). At risk children many times see themselves in an adversarial role with law enforcement officers and others in authority. This can be caused by anti-social behavior demonstrated by their family members and associates. This belief can be further reinforced by placement in juvenile detention or group homes. Throughout the school year community policing officers with the Weld County Sheriff's Office have been working within group homes in Weld County and have begun to develop relationships with the children that reside there. Since our beginning work within these homes, the residential staff have stated that the behavior of the residents of the home have improved. For two days in August or September of this year, the Weld County Sheriff's is planning a camp on the Pawnee National Grasslands at the Crow Valley Campground. This encampment will enable at-risk juveniles and their sponsors to interact with Community Resource Officers in an outdoor setting. Special presentations will be developed and presented by officers, community members, and members of the Colorado State Division of Wildlife about outdoor life and pro- social activities. This will also provide at-risk youth the opportunity to view and interact with law enforcement officers in a non-adversarial setting. In addition to the children living in group home settings, children and their sponsors from the partners mentoring program will be invited. The majority of these children are not involved in the criminal justice system but are also at risk. Their being able to observe officers in this role would also be helpful in their perception of law enforcement. Approximately 50 at-risk youth and their sponsors would be able to attend this camp. To assess the success of this project, a number of juveniles attending the camp would be asked their perception of law enforcement prior to attendance and an equal number asked about their perception of law enforcement at the conclusion. The funds expended for this project would be used to purchase food and other supplies for the camp and to pay for any rental or usage of the campgrounds. Deputy work time would be paid for by the Weld County Sheriffs Office. A time line for this project is: May 1, 2001 Confirm date and accessability of the camp ground. May 15, 2001 Make announcement and set requirements for attendance of the camp with group homes and Partners, Inc. June 15, 2001 Select and contact presenters and support staff July 1, 2001 Confirm presenters and staff and finalize program August 1, 2001 Have final preparations made Camp Date Pre and Post Assessments Page 2 of 3 We, the undersigned, agree to work in partnership to address the community problem identified in the grant application and fulfill the terms of the attached partnership agreement.
