        wholesome, educational, and creative activities;
            (4) it is well-documented that teens who participate in 
        structured activities after school are less likely to drink 
        alcohol, carry or use weapons, smoke cigarettes, engage in 
        early sexual activity, or skip school;
            (5) YMCAs serve people of all faiths, races, abilities, 
        ages, and incomes;
            (6) approximately 400 YMCAs partner with juvenile courts, 
        300 partner with public housing developments, 1550 partner with 
        elementary schools, and 1033 partner with high schools;
            (7) the YMCA is volunteer-founded and volunteer-led and 
        depends on more than 600,000 volunteers to meet the unique 
        needs of their communities;
            (8) the YMCA is especially committed to reaching teens that
