StandUp for Kids Orange County's weekly Street Outreach &Mentoring Program is a county-wide
program where volunteer staff scout Orange County streets searching for youth who are currently
unsheltered or unstably housed.StandUp for Kids serves teens and youth (ages 12—24)who are
homeless,at-risk,aging-out of foster care,or runaways to equip them with the tools they need to
transition from life on the street to a life of stability and opportunity. In our first quarter of
2019-2020 year of Huntington Beach CDBG funding we assisted 13 HB youth. We have provided
these youth with 32 meals or grocery trips, 19 nights of shelter,and 107 instances of support
including bus passes,referrals,mentoring sessions,and the above items.City residents will benefit
by the addition of productive citizens to the city's population.

The StandUp for Kids service model creates a'safe space'for teens and transition-aged youth by
conducting street outreach that offers food,clothing and hygiene supplies,access to a telephone,
emergency support and an identifiable presence(purple T-shirts)on a weekly basis. Once the youth see
SUFK as a trusted resource,they are encouraged to accept a mentoring relationship and are provided
't ongoing assistance with educational needs,job and life skills,sobriety support,family reunification, and/
or emergency housing on an individual basis.(Continued:See Attachment#1)

of support for 362 youth and young adults county-wide.Support has included food and essential

prescriptions,doctor and dentist visits. We have a center-based program in Huntington Beach that
offers a six-month Housing program for youth 18-24 who are committed to creating a life away from
he streets.A second center-based program in Anaheim provides after-school assistance for teens 12—
18 who meet the federal definition of homelessness under the McKinney-Vento Act. Justine Palmore,

group mentoring or become involved in the Housing and Rehabilitation program.Youth sign a
Certification of Homelessness as well.See the attached intake Interview form
g) Please identify anticipated qualitative outcomes to be achieved through the program and what
methods will be used specifically to measure and evaluate such outcomes.

demographic information extracted from intake forms. Hard copies of each intake and
Certification of Homelessness are maintained in individual client files.We track client outcomes as
well,including sobriety,educational milestones,family reunification, employment status, and
housing status.
In addition to tracking the number of clients served and their outcomes,our intention is to
track qualitative changes in these youth as well.The self-esteem of each client is measured at
intake and then every six months by completing the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, a nationally-
recognized measure of self-concept in youth.

Due to limited funding for public services,grant awards are often for less than the requested amounts.
Please describe the specific adjustments that will be made to your program in the event this should
occur.
Standup for Kids receives funding from individual donors year-round,as well as grant support from
private foundations.We currently make periodic street outreach visits within Huntington Beach;
these visits will not be reduced if City CDBG funds are not received. However,we have found that
receipt of CDBG funding has allowed us to routinize and increase support in each funded city. With
reduced or no funding,the proposed number of contacts made would be greatly reduced.

Attachment 1
In one example of this,Juanita was an undocumented, pregnant and substance-using teen when her
parents kicked her out of the house at the age of 19.While receiving treatment for her drug use,she
heard about StandUp For Kids and was given a mentor.She was provided with food and rent,and
emotional support. In her words"if I hadn't received the help and support from StandUp I would
probably be dead.(I was)doing too many drugs,and I was a lost cause.Everyone gave up on me except
Justine,StandUp for kids means stability,family,support,whatever I need to be provided as long as I
show up and am willing to be helped."Today she volunteers with SUR and has a goal to graduate
college and become a drug and alcohol counselor.
Individual and group mentoring forluanita and others is carried out in our Youth Center(on Talbert
Avenue in Huntington Beach)where hot meals,telephone access and more are available in a relaxed,
supportive environment.The Street Outreach program is a critical first step in linking youth with longer-
term supports,ultimately resulting in youth who have the skills and resources to become positive and
contributing members of their communities.
