1 SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

2 Congress finds the following:

3 (1) In an increasingly complex and competitive

4 world economy, the human capital of the United

5 States is its most important resource. Too many

6 young people in the United States are reaching

7 adulthood unprepared to be productive workers, ef8 fective parents, or responsible citizens.

9 (2) Over the past decade, public concern related

10 to young people has focused primarily on improving

11 academic performance and combating youth prob12 lems such as substance abuse and juvenile delin13 quency.

14 (3) Young people who lack self-confidence, self15 discipline, respect for others, and a sense of connec16 tion to their families and communities, are unlikely

17 to be successful in school, and far more likely to en18 gage in high-risk behaviors.

19 (4) Parents have primary responsibility for the

20 social, moral, emotional, physical, and cognitive de21 velopment of their children. However, tremendous

22 social and demographic changes during the last 30
3

•S 673 IS

1 years have had a significant effect on family life and

2 youth development, creating the need for programs

3 to strengthen families and help parents meet the so4 cial, moral, emotional, physical, and cognitive needs

5 of their children.

6 (5) The lack of supervision of youth by parents

7 and the lack of meaningful activity after school for

8 youth contributes to the spread of violent juvenile

9 delinquency in the form of youth and gang violence,

10 drug trafficking, dangerous and self-destructive be11 havior, and lack of hope among youth in our Nation.

12 (6) The United States expects too much of its

13 schools if the Nation asks the schools to meet single14 handedly the needs described in paragraph (5) in ad15 dition to accomplishing their basic educational mis16 sion. Only a strong partnership among families,

17 schools, local government, religious organizations,

18 community-based youth-serving organizations, law

19 enforcement, community-based family-serving orga20 nizations, small businesses (including businesses that

21 produce or sell products that may be abused), large

22 industries, and labor can create a community envi23 ronment that truly supports the youth of the Nation

24 in reaching their highest potential.
4

•S 673 IS

1 (7) Youth development programs, including

2 youth clubs, sports and recreation programs,

3 mentoring programs, and leadership development

4 and community service programs, make a major con5 tribution to helping youth develop the life skills and

6 values that will prepare the youth for the challenges

7 of adolescence and the independence and responsibil8 ities of adulthood.

9 (8) Participation in positive youth development

10 programs can lead to a reduction in high-risk behav11 iors, including school failure, teenage pregnancy, use

12 of alcohol and drugs, and juvenile delinquency. Many

13 youth who would greatly benefit from such programs

14 do not have access due to factors that include lack

15 of coordination among the programs and inequitable

16 distribution of existing resources.

17 (9) Community-based youth-serving organiza18 tions are an effective resource in developing and im19 plementing community youth development plans,

20 both because of the responsiveness of the organiza21 tions to local community values and concerns, and

22 the ability of the organizations to mobilize commu23 nity resources.

24 (10) Notwithstanding the efforts of community25 based youth-serving organizations, in most local
5

•S 673 IS

1 communities youth development efforts are so frag2 mented that millions of youth nationwide go

3 unserved, and no process exists through which key

4 groups regularly come together to develop a com5 prehensive approach to youth development. Without

6 a mechanism for coordination, narrowly focused

7 Federal programs are unable to meet the com8 prehensive needs of the youth of the Nation.

9 (11) Narrowly targeted categorical programs

10 have created a multitude of Federal funding streams

11 which have become a barrier to effective program co12 ordination and the provision of comprehensive serv13 ices for children and youth.

14 (12) It is critical that the Federal Government

15 adopt a comprehensive strategy in promoting the

16 positive development of youth, and encourage and

17 empower communities to develop and implement

18 comprehensive youth development plans.

19 SEC. 3. PURPOSES.

20 It is the purpose of this Act to create a single, com21 prehensive Federal strategy for community-based youth

22 development services, and to support communities in de23 signing community strategic plans for youth development
