IN RE: BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS — YOUTH ENRICHMENT SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAM
To the Oakland County Board of Commissioners
Chairperson, Ladies and Gentlemen:
WHEREAS Oakland County Youth Assistance has identified an opportunity to provide at-risk young
people with positive experiences and personal development through a Youth Enrichment Scholarship
Program; and
WHEREAS a 2001 Washington State Institute for Public Policy (VVSIPP) study found that the total
benefits of effective prevention programs for young people were far greater than their costs, finding that
sound delinquency-prevention programs can save taxpayers seven to ten dollars for every dollar
invested, primarily due to reductions in the amount spent on incarceration; and
WHEREAS positive youth development programs offer "an intentional, pro-social approach that engages
youth within their communities, schools, organizations, peer groups, and families in a manner that is
productive and constructive; recognizes, utilizes, and enhances youths' strengths; and promotes positive
outcomes for young people by providing opportunities, fostering positive relationships, and furnishing the
support needed to build on their leadership strengths"; and
WHEREAS the Oakland County Youth Enrichment Scholarship program will allow recipients to receive up
to $500 for activities that will:
a) Encourage the individual student's ability to succeed in or connect to school,
b) Encourage the student to be exposed to and develop new skills,
c) Prepare students for work or college,
d) Allow students to attend summer camp that addresses a special need; and
WHEREAS the program will be targeted to individuals who are:
a) On Youth Assistance Caseloads,
b) Being Served in the Youth Assistance Mentors Plus Program,
c) On Probation,
d) In the Re-Entry Program; and
WHEREAS program funds will be administered through the Oakland County Youth Assistance
Coordinating Council, a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization, that was established to enhance the mission
and capacity of all 26 of the local Youth Assistance offices; and
WHEREAS the Oakland County Youth Assistance Coordinating Council will work with local offices to
identify individuals that would benefit from this program and will work to ensure the program reaches
communities throughout the County on a fair and equitable basis; and
WHEREAS the central office of Youth Assistance will be responsible for coordinating the program and
establishing guidelines and procedures; and
WHEREAS funding is available for the Youth Enrichment Scholarship Program from royalties accrued in
the Board of Commissioners Prescription Drug Discount Card Program assigned fund balance.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oakland County Board of Commissioners authorizes the
partnership with Oakland County Youth Assistance and the Oakland County Youth Assistance
Coordinating Council for the Youth Enrichment Scholarship in an amount not to exceed $23,000.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED the Board of Commissioners authorizes the Chairman of the Board to
