The School Social Work program operates in 13 area schools. These funds would
help support one - to-one counseling services.
The general recreation program is our "Summer Flan Program" which will operate
at Kennedy, Memorial, Clay, LaSalle- Fillmore, Northeast and Southeast parks.
It is an eight week program, five days a week, for five hours daily. The
therapeutic recreation modality using the "new games" approach is utilized.

The special recreation program is an after school program offered for ten
weeks in the spring and fall. A combination of in- school counseling, cultural,
and recreational activities are offered. The object is to change behavior as
it effects performance.
The campership program will be increased to include a series of camp experiences
at Pretty Lake Adventure Camp. This program will be geared to small groups of
older teens. The program will include initiative games, problem solving, rope
courses, camp experiences and climbing. We will again provide campership
experience to a select group of participants as a reward for improved behavior
in the Summer Fun Program. This camp experience is used as an incentive and
a reward for improved behavior.
Uniforms for camp participants are also used as a reward. The uniform will
consist of a t- shirt, socks, and tennis shoes.
As indicated, a 25% match is required. It is intended that a letter of
certification as to the availability of funds will be submitted to the State
in lieu of cash.
The initial application will be submitted to the State for review, after which
time a contract will be negotiated. A contract will be developed for approval
in late May or early June. The contract period is July, 1979 through
June, 1980.
I hope this information_ is sufficient for a clear understanding of our
Title XX application. If you have questions, please contact me at 284 -9231.
