• W2278044753 abstract "Imagine being in the library amidst conversation where youth are eagerly tossing ideas back and forth about ways to improve their communities. I want to get people to volunteer and help clean up, I would like to make a music club to help teens explore their talent. I want to have a plan for making bag lunches and deliver them in downtown Charlotte to help the homeless Wow! What enthusiasm and interest in making a positive contribution to their neighborhoods! It is often said that those from the Millennial Generation (born between 1980 and 2000) have a high rate of volunteerism. According to the article Managing Millennials by Claire Raines, the message of serve your has a profound effect on these youth and that 50 percent reported volunteering in their community. (1) Five incarcerated males, ages 16-17, located in the United States, currently have the opportunity to put this characteristic of their generation to use through a program called the Dream It Do It Initiative (DIDI). The partner organizations involved in this program include Global Kids, Ashoka's Youth Venture, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the Public Library of Charlotte and Mecklenburg County, North Carolina, and a jail facility. What Are the Goals of DIDI? The goal of DIDI is to have groups of youth (ages 13-17) develop and launch their venture. A group can be made up of two people minimally. A venture, as defined by Youth Venture (www.genv.net) whose subheading is Building a Global Movement of Young Changemakers includes the following tenets: 1. The project must be a new club or organization. In other words, even though there are plenty of organizations in communities that are already doing great work, the youth are required to be truly entrepreneurial and develop their own goals and how they want to achieve them. 2. The project must be youth driven. While the youth can work with adult allies that can help guide them, the adults helping with the project are not making the decisions for the youth. 3. The project is sustainable. It is not meant to be a one-time workshop or event, but something that will be ongoing and able to grow with up to $1000 in seed money provided by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation per group. 4. The venture benefits the community in some way. (2) Who Are the Partners? Exploring the fourth tenet a bit further will help the reader understand who the organizations involved in DIDI are and why they are involved in the first place. The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation: Health and Healthcare Improvement (www.rwjf.org) is involved in this project and funding it from a healthcare angle. The ventures must improve the health of the community. While some people might automatically think that means the absence of disease, it encompasses a much broader definition. According to the World Health Organization, health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being, and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity. (3) So far, the guys involved in the project totally get this. In some ways, perhaps more vividly than others who might not be exposed to the same social conditions that they are in their neighborhoods, schools, or the jail itself. For example, in discussing the issues in their neighborhood, they not only identify drugs as a problem but the drug dealer. Several of the teens share the same interest of not wanting younger kids to make the same decisions they did to end up in jail and thus relate their venture ideas around providing more productive activities for the youth to be involved in. A project called the Chicago Project for Violence Prevention (http://tinyurl.com/3gbk12) spearheaded by physician-epidemiologist Gary Slutkin and funded in part by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, took the approach that violence is a public health issue and worked to develop community-based task forces, particularly including those who were ex-offenders themselves. …" @default.
