Summary of Request:
California Friday Night Live Partnership (FNL) has demonstrated its success through its ability to support a variety of issues of concern to young people. When youth are actively engaged in positive activities with a purposeful role, research shows they are better protected and more prepared to handle the difficult situations life poses. Involving young people in every level of the process, valuing and supporting youth, promoting the voice of youth, and engaging youth as partners with adults all have a positive impact on young people.
The proposed California Friday Night Live Partnership grant utilizes funds from Tulare County Office of Education (TCOE) with the intent to elevate and normalize Social Emotional Learning (SEL) best practices within a youth demographic, and to provide opportunities for youth to be supported and heard. Through this grant, County FNL programs can work with young people to bring youth voice to adult SEL Communities of Practice (CoP). This partnership provides an opportunity for young people to act on their campus, improve school climate, and create an environment where students feel safer and more connected.
If awarded, Mendocino County Behavioral Health and Recovery Services will utilize up to $100,000 in FNL TCOE grant funds to provide structure and resources to grow its FNL program in Mendocino County to include SEL best practices, over the anticipated project period of July 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024.
