Title: YouthZone Program Evaluation Report Summary: Youth development and family services provided by YouthZone seek to motivate and equip individuals, organizations, and communities and their leaders to join together in nurturing competent, caring, and responsible children and adolescents. Helping young people means doing more than just just solving an immediate problem. It means also thinking about how communities can foster positive relationships among young people, assist families and schools with resources, and create opportunities that raise expectations for a for a bright future. In towns where children and youth experience family, school, and community life as positive and where they have relationships with people who guide them, they are much more likely to learn, achieve, mature, and to reach their potential. In this sense then, every child and youth whose faltering well-being is restored is prepared to contribute to the quality of life where they live. Healthy youth make strong communities. Life is complex and changing. Necessarily, the approaches to helping youth regain their positive sense of direction call for keeping up with new ideas and evaluating those that appear to be working to improve their results. This report contributes to these objectives. It suggests new ways of looking at common challenges and helps YouthZone be as accountable as possible to its funders, families, and the communities it serves. This evaluation report summarizes findings from a comparison of pre-post YouthZone Screening scores for youths who in the majority (95%) came with an admission legal problem.
