The Acme Youth Center

Abstract
(Project Summary)

(one page)
The purpose of the Acme Youth Center is to improve the education and behavior of youth in
the Generic City area. Our focus is on education, with interaction focusing heavily on the
Generic City College and the Generic City Police Force, along with other local community
groups.

Education services, including High School Equivalency, Sex Education, and Job Skills
courses will be provided on a weekly basis by the Generic City College. Officers from the
Generic City Police

Department will hold monthly lectures regarding civic issues in a broad Outreach program.

Social activities include meals, games with a game room, dances, and a Big Brother program
in partnership with local schools. Combination social and health activities are support groups
for those youth with emotional or mental issues such as family problems or substance abuse.

The single point of entry provides youths with a simplified way to access all the various
services for the young, both public and private, through a single location and with a single
counselor/helper. Local youth will access the single point of entry system three ways.

1. Walk-in, counselor-aided assistance at the Acme Youth Center.

2. Walk-in, self-service assistance via computer at the Acme Youth Center.

3. Home visit by counselor.

Improving the education and well-being of our community’s youth translates into financial
savings for the city and substantial enhancement of the community’s overall economic
development effort.
