| Project Description: |
| This project is seeking to expand the Pace Center for Girls, Inc. funding by 60 slots. This expansion request addresses the following: Girls continued to be the fastest growing segment of the Florida Juvenile Justice population; Consequently, waiting lists have grown at the PACE centers statewide; The Department of Juvenile Justice's is targeting providing prevention programming to youngr at risk children, therefore, the continued development and piloting of our Pre-teen center has never been more crucial; The resultant Pre-teen center's programmatic design will be the program model used by PACE statewide to address the growing numbers of pre-adolescent girls who are entering the juvenile justice system; Florida will continue to provide statewide cutting edge girls services and lead the nation in gender responsive programming. The allocation of the expansion slots to the PACE centers statewide will be based on the needs of the local community (waiting list numbers, referrals, limited local programming alternatives). Slots will also be allocated to the Pre-teen center to support the continued development of programming for younger girls at risk of entering the system. |
