[00:03] We call it the regular, called to order. The rigorous government meeting of my city council for Tuesday April 7th 2026

[00:10] Public input and a scheduled personal appearances we have none number three approval

[00:15] And presentation approximation, proclamation declaring

[00:18] April 26 as national child abuse prevention month

[00:28] Second

[01:02] Hi

[01:03] It's been going for six years, this is the transfer of people with them in the campus. They care about that

[02:28] We don't know what to do on foster care enough

[03:14] In his veins cold and scum touches it started here

[04:41] But we should be number one

[04:44] So my kind walking out

[04:48] And I'm really not a part-of-fill

[04:52] And I'm just like, this is the last one

[05:00] Thank you

[05:04] Thank You

[05:07] Thank Your

[05:29] For a presentation of The Boys and Girls Club summer program

[05:48] We MSRP less suffered into our programs

[06:09] Great things happening at their club

[06:12] But it's certain MSRP kids that have not been absorbed in to boys

[06:16] And girls club programs

[06:19] So I just want to go over a couple of things you have hand out that

[06:21] You can read over, i Just wanted to point on it

[06:23] A few little thing for YOU

[06:25] When we're talking about last summer some

[06:27] Last Summer would be the first summer

[06:29] For MSRP joining in with Boys and Girls Club

[06:32] We served 276 kids

[06:34] And you'll see at my MSites that specifically

[06:39] Two summer locations in Miami which is my dinner

[06:45] I'm 276 from Miami

[06:48] 56 kids were served to our Farland location

[06:51] Part of the reason we could absorb MSRP

[06:54] Because, as far away open a third place

[06:56] At New Fairlin Club

[06:59] That's In The Middle Maryland

[07:01] We are able

[07:04] To move those fairly into our Miami and their own location

[07:07] And they're essentially opened up the space at our

[07:12] Myonelocations to absorb MSRP and what we are doing in this club

[07:15] So those 56 kids were now out

[07:18] At their own location that open of these spots

[07:22] Last summer, We surveyed parents

[07:25] Outthe only way

[07:28] Can get survey.We all did an end day

[07:30] To research how hard you got

[07:33] But if I word a mouth with my appearance

[07:35] And roll kids in our summer program last year

[07:38] Of those survey parents

[07:40] 89 Kids had previously participated

[07:42] In MSRP

[07:44] Programming even that prior to your oring years pass

[07:47] So, 89 of Those Kids were absorbed

[07:50] Just a couple stats about the kinds

[07:53] The families we serve at Boys and Girls Club

[07:55] Last year We have 70 poor single parent households

[07:58] At our Miami clubs

[08:00] 46%

[08:01] Of the total families that we serve in our Miami locations

[08:05] Are low income families

[08:07] I like to point out because

[08:10] A lot of times people

[08:12] Like To Make The Sums about what Boys and Girls Club is

[08:15] Or who We are

[08:18] But, the club for all kids

[08:21] Regardless

[08:25] Your family's socio-economic status

[08:27] All kids in the club

[08:30] So, I just wanted to point that out

[08:32] And then another important step

[08:34] That everyone is a 187 parents

[08:37] They obtain full time employment

[08:39] While their Kids were at our care last summer

[08:42] What you guys do

[08:44] In The Workforce Development and Our Community

[08:47] Thats workforce support systems

[08:49] End of Boys & Girls Club

[08:51] A 178 parent's can maintain

[08:53] And they are not allowed to do it

[08:56] They're all at the same time

[08:58] Employment because their kids were in a safe

[09:00] Supervised location

[09:03] There being fed, having fun

[09:05] We just wanted that out

[09:07] A couple other highlights from Boys & Girls Club

[09:10] We serve breakfast lunch

[09:12] In and after we snack every day

[09:14] It's important though

[09:18] It's a 43-field trips

[09:20] We scholarship 59 kids

[09:23] Now that is not 100% scholarship

[09:26] For all fifty nine of those kids

[09:29] The philosophy at Boys & Girls Club

[09:31] Is That No Kid

[09:33] In their participation by Their inability or ability to pay

[09:37] But we believe the and every family has

[09:39] The ability to contribute something

[09:42] Very rarely do I scholarship kids 100%

[09:45] We are forced like our foster Kids or Kids

[09:48] They're staying at the shelter

[09:50] Those kids only represent obviously

[09:52] Everyone else can contribute

[09:54] Something regardless of their society and on the next day

[09:57] So if they think contribute five dollars for Their Kid

[09:59] To participate in a 12-volt ticket

[10:01] And we'll scholarships the rest

[10:03] So 59 kids

[10:05] Some challenges last summer

[10:06] And as we all experience,

[10:08] We are short staff by about eight full-time

[10:11] Staff members

[10:13] If you apply that to a 115 ratio

[10:15] That were required

[10:17] To run in the Boys & Girls Club

[10:19] That's a potential 120 extra kids

[10:21] Because of our last summer

[10:23] Hopefully this Summer

[10:26] Where Offs your running start

[10:28] I'm sure You've seen our hiring publicly

[10:30] The more spots

[10:31] We feel better, we have a new partnership

[10:34] The Summer with Cherokee Nation

[10:36] Cherokee Nation will pay

[10:38] Any 16 to 21 year old To work at the Boys & Girls Club 40 hours in need

[10:42] They can paid them more than I can

[10:44] So if you know a tribal kids between 16 and 20

[10:48] And want to work on Kids and my way

[10:50] Because Cherokee Nation

[10:52] That's kind of last summer

[10:59] Kind Of some things that i'll put out for this summer

[11:02] We have a large goal of serving 350 kids

[11:07] Just our my MSI

[11:09] To run the way that they're going to be on this summer

[11:11] But, and in my MSI through The Goldessurf 315 Kids

[11:14] Our max capacity is 388

[11:18] Between River View & Tease Center

[11:20] So we are gonna shoot close

[11:22] Two or Max capacity

[11:24] You will talk more about us

[11:26] How we talked

[11:28] In Boys& Girls Club language

[11:29] Our average daily attendance not enrollment

[11:32] Because we understand every kid is

[11:35] Not going to attend Every single day

[11:37] It's all about balancing out of the average number

[11:39] Of Kids that We serve per Day

[11:41] So for shootings when roll 350 kids

[11:44] Will probably averaged between 275-288

[11:48] Which was more than what I've served last year

[11:52] Artarnate age

[11:54] The summer where really trying

[11:56] To increase our enrollment

[11:57] It's also a high school age youth that we're served

[12:00] Obviously because We have an 18-centred downtown my Emma

[12:03] So things are working on expanding and providing to

[12:07] That specific age group is early job skills opportunities

[12:11] Currently, our jobs shadowing every single day

[12:15] And the community in various fields

[12:18] Doing different community service opportunities

[12:21] A lot with our neighbors down town

[12:23] We have neighbors around there that will call an ass for help with very

[12:29] So neighbors behind us if they need help

[12:31] And our kids are always willing to jump in and pitch

[12:34] In the cleanup yard, help set up chairs

[12:36] For an event something like this

[12:38] Providing those community service opportunities

[12:41] One kid or program last summer who accumulated over 200 hours of volunteer service

[12:46] She put it on her college

[12:48] Intrans appreciation This Last year was accepted into College

[12:51] So that's a big deal to be able

[12:54] To accumulate community service hours as well

[12:56] And then also just providing those positive mentors

[12:59] Specifically, so middle school and high-school kids

[13:01] It is more important for preventing juvenile disability

[13:04] In our community

[13:06] If they have safe place but their fed

[13:08] They are something productive

[13:10] We've been in the stress on our community

[13:14] Some of other things we focus

[13:16] On what I'm going through is

[13:17] We call it core memory experiences

[13:20] Or we're just providing kids, core memories

[13:23] And so some big things to be explained

[13:26] This summer is our annual trip

[13:28] To wonder if wildlife and spring film

[13:30] It's not a cheap trip

[13:32] Just bring them into that experience

[13:34] But its once in the lifetime trip for a lot of art kids

[13:37] The injury fee has no chief

[13:39] Many times these skis were able

[13:41] To be able to do it through fundraising

[13:43] Because I believe going too the largest aquarium in

[13:46] The United States is really important

[13:48] We also make frequent trips

[13:51] To the amazing and crystal bridges

[13:53] And then build that's a big one

[13:55] That our kids love

[13:57] Then locally just using local resources

[13:59] In leading on their local community partners

[14:01] If we're not strong with the library here

[14:04] They run some programming specifically

[14:07] Just for us, things like Lego League

[14:09] There's a story time where some of you guys have read books

[14:12] We haven't really awesome library

[14:15] I'm just going to start with them

[14:17] It is so easy that our kids can walk there from the teen center

[14:20] And they are all helping us develop programs for

[14:23] Our kids

[14:25] They want their children and help out

[14:28] Outcomes, outputs

[14:31] To achieve it

[14:33] With farm downtown

[14:34] Our kids go twice a week to buy farm business

[14:37] And they do fitness classes

[14:39] They learn crossfit

[14:41] A lot of the block like many other

[14:44] Crossfiters doing their job

[14:46] We have strong partnership with

[14:51] The tribal health system

[14:53] Nutrition education is

[14:55] A big part will be trying to come

[14:57] Chana Morden

[14:59] It's a wizard in what she does

[15:01] She's a good nutrition, cooking education and nutrition

[15:04] In kids

[15:06] Her children do hands-on

[15:08] Cooking classes every single week

[15:10] All of our club sites

[15:12] It is so pretty phenomenal program

[15:14] We have seen it

[15:16] Those two are like the only people I know who can convince kids to eat

[15:18] But she does

[15:20] That's great

[15:22] Chef convinced me

[15:24] Well put in that cheesecake

[15:27] Yeah

[15:30] So that's another partnership

[15:32] Here is what we need this summer to kind of make

[15:35] This work between all with us

[15:37] You see the numbers about it costs around our summer program

[15:40] That´s a lot money

[15:42] To run its summer program for them

[15:44] Our boys and girls come from around

[15:46] About $1 million budget

[15:48] And they are going

[15:50] A LOT OF IT goes

[15:53] We have hired 25

[15:55] Between 25

[15:59] We are taking from the school year

[16:02] In summer we still need to hire

[16:05] 25-35 people

[16:07] That would be fully staffed at all of our locations

[16:10] And then will in community

[16:12] Rising money for sponsorships

[16:15] Of build trips, things like Wenders and Wildlife

[16:17] They can cost us upwards $5000

[16:19] Just a go there

[16:22] So that kids get experience

[16:25] What they call those core memories

[16:26] And they are going to have a lot of fun

[16:29] So that's what summer is gonna look like for us
