Background and Analysis

The City of Citrus Heights offers limited one -time funding for non- profit organizations that provide services to residents of the Citrus Heights community through the Non-Profit Community Support program. The program is administered on an annual basis through an application process.

Program applications detail the proposed project description and schedule, number of residents served by the project, cost, the ability to be self -sustaining, and the leveraging of other funding sources, as well as performance i ndicators. Staff aggregates and reviews applications for completeness and presents them to the City Council Quality of Life Committee. The committee reviews the mix of applications and makes grant amount recommendations for City Council consideration.

The Quality of Life Committee aimed to accommodate funding requests from nonprofit organizations that have not previously received Community Support Funds and award smaller grants to several non-profits . Th e recommendation was to promote inclusiveness , address the diverse needs of the underserved population within the City, and enhance community engagement among a broader range of residents.

Staff provided a detailed overview of the grant eligibility criteria and the point values assigned to each review item to ensure an equitable assessment process. While some applications received high scores, above 16 out of a maximum of 25, these applications were not recommended for funding because the application did not align with the goals of the Community Support Fund.

Ultimately, the Quality of Life Committee recommended awarding $150,000 to five community groups that met the funding criteria and funding objectives.

This initiative aligns with the City Council’s Strategic Plan to Enhance Community Vibrancy and Engagement, emphasizing the importance of supporting local organizations that contribute to our community's well-being. By funding these projects, the City aims to strengthen community ties and improve Citrus Heights residents' overall quality of life.

Sayonara Center’s Project Plan and Description
Since 2004, the Sayonara Center has made a tremendously positive impact on hundreds of students who live on Sayonara Drive and in the surrounding community. The Sayonara Center is a free, after-school center that serves 105 vulnerable, low-income, and at-risk youth in 1st through 12th grade each year, oﬀering sports opportunities and recreational activities; one-on-one mentoring; tutoring, homework assistance, and educational activities and games; a technology center for students to complete school assignments; daily, nutritious snacks and meals; biweekly life-skills classes (e.g., career and ﬁnancial planning, cooking and baking); opportunities to participate in day trips and camps; and monthly bilingual parenting support dinners and classes to help equip parents of Sayonara Center students. The mission of the Sayonara Center is to teach vulnerable youth character, conﬁdence, and responsibility and to raise up leaders from within this challenged community who will aﬀect long-term change.

The steps for implementation are as follows: Students receive help with their homework, which propels many of them on to greater academic achievements, including better attendance records, improved grades, and a greater chance of graduation. Staff and volunteers break into small groups with the attending students to practice reading out loud; to work on addition, subtraction and multiplication; and to finish up their homework for the night, if needed.

This extra tutoring has become part of the students’ lives and routines. Students are also given the opportunities to play educational games that build on, refine, and reinforce academic concepts. The students look forward to receiving this extra assistance, and their parents appreciate knowing that their children are in a safe environment, are learning, and will return home with their homework and school projects completed.

Besides the learning aspects, the students have formed special bonds with Sayonara Center staff and our 20 volunteers. Sayonara Center staff and volunteers fulfill many roles—tutor, mentor, advisor, food preparer, taxi driver, coach, and friend. Their commitment to making the Sayonara Center a safe place for children to learn and grow is what has made the Sayonara Center such a catalyst for change—on a personal level and throughout the community it serves. Our volunteers read to students, help them with homework, work on flash cards, check in on students, bake them treats, plan lessons and crafts, and play games to help make the Sayonara Center a place students feel wanted and welcomed. The students recognize that they are cared for and the Sayonara Center staff and volunteers pour into the students’ lives through the friendships and mentorships they have formed at the Sayonara Center. The most powerful part of all of those pieces is the genuine care given by the Sayonara Center staff, volunteers, and community partners. When students are given assistance with homework, play a game, or receive help learning sight words or math concepts, it is done so with care—with the student’s well-being and future in mind. The students are cheered on, lifted up, and exhorted when necessary to help them become the best they can be.

Beyond the daily Sayonara Center activities, the community’s love for the Sayonara Center youth has provided rich recreational opportunities that many students would not have otherwise—including participation in the weekly activities; field trips; the Citrus Heights Police Activities League (P.A.L.); an 8-week Crossover Basketball league for middle-school and high-school students, coached by two Sayonara Center high-school students, which will be repeated this school year; and a number of activities during the summer including camps, swimming lessons, and arts and crafts.

Ea
ch afternoon, students receive a healthy meal and snacks through our generous donors. For many of our students, the afternoon meal they receive at the Sayonara Center is the last nutritious meal they will have for the day. During the school year, the Sayonara Center feeds an average of 50 students daily after school. During the summer months, the majority of Sayonara Center students do not have daily meals as they are not in school to receive free lunches. Through this grant project, we will continue to increase our offering of meals by providing our 105 students with meals during the summer whenever an activity is offered. We will also continue to allow students to take extra food from the Sayonara Center’s daily meals home to their families to help supplement nutritional gaps. Additionally, the Sayonara Center offers biweekly cooking and baking classes, held by a retired culinary teacher, to teach the students about nutrition and to give them skills to prepare healthy meals for themselves and their families. Behind each word used to describe the Sayonara Center and what we do are caring staff, an army of volunteers, and a tremendous amount of love and concern for the well-being of each and every student which motivates us to continue on and to do better each year. The City of Citrus Heights’ partnership with the Sayonara Center is the catalyst to help children grow to become strong, participating members of their community and has ITEM 11
Agenda Packet Page 213
the potential to raise up leaders from within this community and create long-term change.

The City of Citrus Heights has funded this project several times in the past, including financial gifts and providing the facility in which we meet.

The funds will be needed beginning October 2024 on a monthly or quarterly basis through June 30, 2025. Project milestones include open registration in August and special programming throughout the year (e.g., sports leagues, spring break camp, week-long summer camps, Thanksgiving and Christmas events, etc.). Performance indicators used to measure the success of the Sayonara Center include attendance records and feedback from participants and their parents. The project is ongoing, running throughout the school year, with special programming during the holidays and summer.

The success of our program can be measured in empirical and observational data. Empirical data is derived from tracking students’ attendance at the Sayonara Center, as well as from the measurement and tracking of students’ academic success through their online report cards. Students are rewarded for checking their grades online, and, at the end of each grading period, Sayonara Center staﬀ are able to note in which academic areas students may be struggling and in which academic areas they are succeeding.

Empirical data also includes the graduation rate and college-attendance rate of the Sayonara Center’s senior high- school students. In the past four years, 22 senior high-school students of the Sayonara Center have graduated from high school and half are attending community college. Some of the graduating students had attended the Sayonara Center their entire school lives, which speaks to the Sayonara Center’s impact on the lives of its participants.

The observational data continually affirms that programming at the Sayonara Center is successful for the students, their families, and the community. As our staff and volunteers work with students each day, they are able to notice the progress each student makes in reading, writing, math, and social studies skills. Students eagerly running up to our staff, proclaiming the good news of their improved grades or awards received is a recurring event at the Sayonara Center. Parents relay to our staff on a regular basis the improvements they see in their children and how grateful they are for the work being done at the Sayonara Center. And school staff providing feedback about students’ improvements, with their grades and their behavior, encourages us to continue the good work we do with the youth at the Sayonara Center.

The Sayonara Center continues to be more than an after-school program. People in the community come to us with questions and sometimes ask us for help as they have no one else to whom to turn. We provide the Sayonara community with advice; help with using a computer and printing documents; access to a bathroom, phone, snacks, diapers, water on a hot day; and more. The many youth of the Sayonara Center who have graduated and recently returned for the “Sayonara Center Reunion,” as well as the former Sayonara Center youth who volunteer at the Sayonara Center, are a further testament to the lasting impact the Sayonara Center has on the youth who participate.

Ca
mpus Life Connection (CLC)’s flagship Lerwick Community Center opened its doors in 2001 and served 30-45 youth weekly in a neighborhood overwhelmed with high crime, drugs, and gang activity. Positive quantitative outcomes such as increased academic performance by participating youth and a decrease in the high crime, drugs, and gang activity were evidenced regularly. Due to the Lerwick Community Center’s success, a City of Citrus Heights councilmember approached CLC, asking if CLC could replicate the program in Citrus Heights. The City of Citrus Heights designated funding to start CLC’s after-school community center in a 2-bedroom apartment on Sayonara Drive. The Sayonara After-School Program (Sayonara Community Center) opened its doors in Citrus Heights in 2004, serving 25 youth. The Sayonara Community Center quickly outgrew the two-bedroom apartment provided by the City of Citrus Heights, so CLC rented two units and combined them by removing a wall, which worked temporarily. Because of the increased number of youth attending and the tremendous success of the Sayonara Community Center in reducing the rate of crime, drugs, and gang activity on Sayonara Drive, upon reviewing the program, the City Manager realized the City of Citrus Heights needed to build a facility in which to house the Sayonara Community Center. In 2011, the City of Citrus Heights constructed the Citrus Heights Children and Youth Center and generously provided the facility for the Sayonara Community Center (Sayonara Center).

The Sayonara Center has been highly successful in serving Citrus Heights residents. When we opened in 2004, we ITEM 11
Agenda Packet Page 214
served approximately 25-30 students and their families; 20 years later in 2024, we have 105 students enrolled.

This increase from 2004 can be attributed to the great need in the area due to family dynamics and language barriers, integral partnerships with the City of Citrus Heights and many other community partners, and the consistency and value of the services offered. The increase speaks volumes about the true value of the services offered and the care with which they are given. It should be noted also that the Sayonara Center originally was founded to serve Sayonara Drive residents, but, over the years, as the reputation of the Sayonara Center has grown favorably, we expanded to serve the surrounding neighborhood. Through continual collaboration with the City of Citrus Heights, the Sayonara Center’s presence has positively impacted the community by helping to decrease the crime rate, increase services for low-income families, instill confidence in children and youth, and improve students’ academic performance, and we expect to continue to see these outcomes through this grant project.

The Sayonara Center will serve approximately more than 300 Citrus Heights residents. Registration is held at the Sayonara Center at the start of each school year. The parent(s)/guardian(s) of each child who participates must ﬁll out a registration form noting name, address, number of people in household and ages, schools attended by their children, income, race, ethnicity, and household characteristics. Each time a new child begins to participate at the Sayonara Center during the school year, their parents are required to ﬁll out the same form. This process allows us to accurately track the number of residents being assisted and provides the Sayonara Center with pertinent identiﬁcation information including ethnicity, race, and household income data. This ensures that the participants at the Sayonara Center meet the objective of helping low- or moderate-income persons. The number of people we assist outside of direct Sayonara Center participants and their families ﬂuctuates. If we are able, we oﬀer food or clothing, or we may refer individuals and families to another agency in the community that can provide the help they need.

In addition to those we help who are not regular Sayonara Center participants, the number we serve includes registered Sayonara Center participants, as well as the families of those children. Approximately 63% of the students with whom we work have non-English-speaking parents, who face great challenges to help their children academically due to the language barrier. To further support and equip the parents of the Sayonara Center participants, we offer monthly dinners and parenting classes, which have been extremely well received. We currently have 105 students registered at the Sayonara Center, so, based on participants and their families alone, we serve approximately 300 people. Figuring in an unknown number of requests for help throughout the year, we estimate that we serve more than 300 people over the course of the year.

For ongoing programs, describe how your organization will fund future expenses.

Campus Life Connection (CLC) continually seeks strategies and resources to work on self-sustainability. The Sayonara Center participates in organization-wide fundraisers, including luncheons, dinners, auctions, ﬁreworks booths, and golf tournaments each year. All proceeds of donated items procured by Sayonara Center staﬀ go toward funding the Sayonara Center.

Sayonara Center staff communicate monthly with hundreds of supporters, sharing stories of success and the Sayonara Center’s needs, through which more financial supporters are gained. CLC staff are continually pursuing grant opportunities to help fund the Sayonara Center and our development staff continually pursue new avenues for raising funds through community agencies, businesses, and individuals.

CLC has a strong base of supporters made up of individuals, businesses, and nonprofits in the area. The majority of these donors contribute on a monthly basis and several provide generous yearly gifts to help meet the financial needs of the Sayonara Center. Supporters of the Sayonara Center are engaged for special fundraisers throughout the year and asked to participate and garner the involvement of others to help raise funding through these special events/opportunities. Through community outreach, grant proposals, and individual networking, we continually pursue funding for self- sustainability.

How much of the total project costs is your organization requesting from the City? Our organization is requesting $25,000 from the City of Citrus Heights out of the total projects costs.

Describe how the funding requested serves only Citrus Heights residents.

The Sayonara Center serves only residents of the City of Citrus Heights. Campus Life Connection keeps all programs segregated—funds are not comingled, so Citrus Heights money is not used in other programs.

The Sayonara Center will serve approximately more than 300 Citrus Heights residents. Registration is held at the Sayonara Center at the start of each school year. The parent(s)/guardian(s) of each child who participates must fill out a registration form noting name, address, number of people in household and ages, schools attended by their children, income, race, ethnicity, and household characteristics. Each time a new child begins to participate at the Sayonara Center during the school year, their parents are required to fill out the same form. This process allows us to accurately track the number of residents being assisted and provides the Sayonara Center with pertinent identification information including ethnicity, race, and household income data. This ensures that the participants at the Sayonara Center meet the objective of helping low- or moderate-income persons.

Funding Request for Citrus Heights HART Rental Assistance Program Supporting Families and Veterans
Description of Funding Usage: The requested $75,000 will be allocated to the Citrus Heights HART Rental Assistance Program, prioritizing households with two or more individuals, families, and veterans who are on the brink of homelessness. These funds will be used to prevent evictions, provide rental support, and ensure housing stability for vulnerable households in Citrus Heights.

Households and Families: This new program, focused on larger households, veterans, and families, is a response to our deep understanding of the community's needs. T o date, Citrus Heights HART has provided $102,734 in rental assistance to vulnerable households, with a focus on rapidly answering requests for financial help without a specific demographic or household size focus. Through operating the general program and running the Underground Clothing Connection—our free clothing store for vulnerable families in the San Juan Unified School District—we recognize the significant financial challenges many families in Citrus Heights face in maintaining their housing due to COVID-19, medical emergencies, or other unexpected expenses.

A Focus on Veterans: One of Citrus Heights HART’s first programs in 2018 was organizing the local “Stand Down” event. Since then, HART has become a critical partner in supporting unhoused and vulnerable veterans, working alongside local veteran-focused nonprofits. In addition to focusing on families and larger households, a portion of the funding will be used in partnership with the Citrus Heights Veterans Center to provide rental assistance to local veterans in need. The Veterans Center will identify veterans requiring support, and Citrus Heights HART will evaluate their situations and provide funding where appropriate.

Citrus Heights HART’s goal in providing rental assistance is “Homeless Prevention.” Our rental assistance program aligns with HUD’s definition of “Homeless Prevention.” This new program is designed to prevent families from entering emergency shelters or living in public or private places not meant for human habitation by identifying their needs before disaster strikes and they become homeless.

Steps for Implementation:
● Identification of At-Risk Households: The Rental Assistance Committee Citrus Heights HART internal Committee, in collaboration with partner organizations such as St.

Vincent de Paul Society, The Veterans Center, and Community Health Works Outreach Navigator, will identify families facing imminent housing instability.

ITEM 11
Agenda Packet Page 221
● Assessment and Evaluation: Citrus Heights HART members will conduct thorough evaluations to determine the eligibility and sustainability of housing for the identified households.
● Household Interviews: Interviews will be conducted with the households to understand the root causes of their economic challenges, employment prospects, debts, family size, and connections to community resources.
● Decision-Making Process: The Rental Assistance Committee will review the gathered information and vote on the allocation of funds to the identified households. ● Disbursement of Funds: Upon approval, funds will be disbursed to landlords to prevent evictions and ensure that families and individuals can maintain their housing. ● Resource Connection: Regardless of the funding outcome, Citrus Heights HART will connect households with essential community resources to provide ongoing support.

Schedule for Completion:
● Gegin Identification and Assessment: Within the first month of receiving the funding. ● Begin Household Interviews and Decision-Making: Conducted within two months of funding allocation.
● Begin Disbursement of Funds: Initiated within two months of funding approval. ● Resource Connection: Ongoing support and resource connections will be provided throughout the program's duration.
*A note about aforementioned Schedule for Completion: Schedule above is based on estimates for creating the program. This process will be ongoing until funds are extinguished or the end of the grant term.

Expected Outcomes:
● Prevention of Homelessness: The Rental Assistance Program aims to prevent evictions and homelessness for families and individuals on the brink of losing their housing.
● Housing Stability: By providing financial support, the program will ensure that vulnerable households can maintain their homes and avoid displacement. ● Community Impact: The program will positively impact the community by reducing homelessness, promoting housing stability, and fostering a sense of security for at-risk families and individuals.

Anticipated Number of Citrus Heights Residents Served: The $75,000 funding request will support families and individuals facing housing insecurity, ultimately contributing to our mission of empowering individuals to become self-sufficient community members. Based on an average of $1,500 per case for 2 persons per case, we anticipate serving approximately 100 individuals directly through our Rental Assistance Program. By targeting those who have recently lost a job or experienced financial hardship due to a layoff, we aim to prevent homelessness and provide crucial support to those in need.

Community Impact: Preventing homelessness has a significant indirect impact on the entire Citrus Heights community. By keeping families housed and stable, we contribute to the overall ITEM 11
Agenda Packet Page 222
well-being and economic stability of the community. Stable housing benefits not only the individuals directly assisted but also helps maintain a sense of community reduces strain on local social services, and fosters a safer and more prosperous environment for all residents. Our focus on preventing homelessness among individuals facing job loss or financial hardship addresses immediate needs and contributes to the long-term stability and resilience of Citrus Heights as a whole.

Prior City of Citrus Heights Funding Awarded in the Last 5 Years:
● $5,000 Community Event Grant for the grand reopening of the Citrus Heights HART Underground Clothing Connection. The Underground Clothing Connection supports vulnerable students in the San Juan Unified School District and the surrounding area by providing free clothing and other resources.

Application for 2025 CDBG Funds: No.

*A note about aforementioned secured funding: This funding was received to fund Citrus Heights HART’s general rental assistance programs not our program to specifically support Families and Veterans. 95% of this funding has been used.

As of Q2 2024, Citrus Heights HART has invested $102,734 in rental assistance dollars into the Citrus Heights community. These funds are depleting rapidly due to the high demand in our neighborhood.

We expect to raise $20,000 from our annual spaghetti fest fundraiser, as in past years.

Additionally, we anticipate raising around $10,000 for Rental Assistance funding through our grant writing program.

Future Funding for Ongoing Programs:

T o sustain and expand our Rental Assistance Program, Citrus Heights HART is committed to employing a multi-faceted approach to secure the necessary funding.

Our strategies include:

1. Grant Writing: We will actively pursue grant opportunities from various sources, including government agencies, foundations, and private organizations. By crafting compelling grant proposals that highlight the impact and success of our Program and the effectiveness of Rental Assistance in preventing homelessness, we aim to secure additional funding to support families, individuals, veterans, and others in need.

2. Annual Spaghetti Fest Fundraiser: Our signature event will continue to serve as a significant funding source for the Rental Assistance Program. This event, featuring raffles, live music, and community engagement, raises approximately $20,000 annually, providing essential funds to sustain and expand our programs, including rental assistance for vulnerable families.

ITEM 11
Agenda Packet Page 224

3. Partnership Development: We will strengthen and cultivate partnerships with local businesses, churches, and community organizations to garner financial support for the Rental Assistance Program. By collaborating with like-minded entities that share our commitment to ending homelessness and supporting at-risk families, we can leverage resources and expertise to maximize the impact of our programs.

Through strategic grant writing efforts, the Annual Spaghetti Fest Fundraiser, and ongoing partnership development, Citrus Heights HART is dedicated to ensuring the long-term sustainability and growth of our Rental Assistance Program. By diversifying our funding sources and engaging the community in our mission, we aim to continue providing critical support to families on the brink of homelessness, empowering them to achieve stability and self-sufficiency.

The proportion of Total Project Costs Requested from the City:

Citrus Heights HART is requesting $75,000 from the City to support our Rental Assistance Program Supporting Families and Veterans. Alll administrative costs, encompassing 30 volunteer hours per week, are covered by our dedicated volunteers, which equates to approximately $65,000 per year. Therefore, the requested $75,000 will constitute 50% of the total project funding for the year.

Our program is entirely scalable, thanks to the volunteer hours and the typical RAP assistance amount of $1,500. Furthermore, we ensure that 100% of donations received go directly towards funding the Rental Assistance Program, maximizing the impact of each contribution to assist families in need within our community.

Funding Exclusively Serving Citrus Heights Residents:

Citrus Heights HART , established in 2014, is dedicated to addressing the unique challenges of homelessness within Citrus Heights, California. The organization’s primary mission is to support local residents. The Rental Assistance Program, operated exclusively by Citrus Heights HART , serves individuals and families residing in the city, ensuring that financial aid is directed toward maintaining housing stability within the community. Additionally, the program emphasizes relocating individuals (if necessary) into housing within Citrus Heights, underscoring its commitment to serving and uplifting the city's residents.

Citrus Heights HART and its expected partners (Veterans Center, Community Health Works, and St. Vincent de Paul Society) vet rental assistance referrals to evaluate their level of need and their physical location. Citrus Heights HART only receives referrals from our partners for cases located within the city limits of Citrus Heights.

Project Budget Narrative
Project: Plunge into Social and Soft Skills
Total Project Cost: $15,000
Total Request to City of Citrus Heights: $10,000
Total Amount to be Paid by Other Funding Sources: $5,000 ($2,500 from U.S. Bank and $2,5000 from Cathay Bank)
Junior Achievement of Sacramento (JA) proposes to bring three JA empowerment programs to 100 teen and young adult lifeguards in partnership with Sunrise Recreation and Park District at a total cost of $15,000, based on our cost structure of $50 per student. Our costs have increased in the past two years, causing us to adjust the per-student cost. However, the cost remains efficient and feasible due to our innovative program delivery model, which leverages volunteers from the local business community to lead JA lessons. Our unique delivery model not only keeps costs down but also provides invaluable benefits to both students and the community. By incorporating business volunteers, we ensure that students receive real-world experience and insights, making the curriculum more engaging and relevant.

Additionally, students have the opportunity to network with professionals, opening doors to potential internships and mentorships within the community.

As reflected in the attached project budget, it is essential to recognize the significant staff hours required for planning, volunteer recruitment and training, curriculum customization, ongoing support to group leaders and volunteers, registration tracking, gathering feedback and data, and program evaluation. In addition there are JA USA Program and Support Fees that includes curriculum, learning management system, licensing fees, digital access to classroom materials and volunteer and teacher guides, student access to a plethora of online resources and apps, insurance, and support. The administration costs are relatively low at 8% of the total project budget.

Confirmed funding includes $2,500 funding from U.S. Bank and $2,500 from Cathay Bank allocated to work readiness and financial literacy programs.

Project Sustainability
A priority of the JA President, Board and staff is to continually work toward supporting the JA mission by organizing fundraising events and seeking foundation, corporate, government, and private funding while staying abreast of local, state and federal grant opportunities. A few of our steadfast businesses, corporations, and foundations that support JA financially include U.S. Bank, State Street, Franklin Templeton, ECMC Group, First Tech Federal Credit Union, and Cathay Bank. Some newer support from our continual solicitations include the Tegna Foundation (ABC 10), Del E. Webb Foundation, the UPS Store, and Target.

Junior Achievement of Sacramento Purpose
With a vision of a world in which young people have the skillset and mindset to build thriving communities, Junior Achievement of Sacramento’s (JA) three pillars - work
readiness, entrepreneurship, and financial literacy - give young people the knowledge and confidence needed to
match their talents with potential careers, build the skills that entrepreneurs need and employers desire, and make smart financial choices that can last a lifetime.

Leveraging hands-on, experiential learning activities and mentors from the business community, our comprehensive
menu of economic empowerment programs offer cumulative
K-12 grade-level lessons, point-of-entry programs, pop-up programs, out-of-school hour clubs, online activities and resources, convenient “bite-size” lessons, competitions, and deep-dive semester programs for high school students offering specialized/advanced topics that instill crucial life skills to transition to adulthood successfully.

Project Description
We invite the City of Citrus Heights to join a transformative partnership with JA and Sunrise Recreation and Park District (SRPD) to strengthen the overall quality of life in Citrus Heights. The proposed project, “Plunge into Social and Soft Skills” will equip 100 SRPD Lifeguards, hired for the 2025 swim season, with essential skills to elevate customer service while engaging with the 100s of residents visiting Rusch Park Pool and the Antelope Aquatic Complex daily for swim lessons, recreation swim, and special events.

Aligning with the City’s core value of responsive customer service, soft skills such as active listening, empathy to understand a customer’s situation, positivity, problem-solving, and conflict resolution will be attained by lifeguards through real-life scenarios, and practical applications to ensure the best experience possible for residents. Trained, experienced JA volunteers from our partner businesses will lead the JA programs while sharing their social and soft skill experiences, and career and education journeys.

As an added bonus, JA experiential learning activities will equip the teen and young adult lifeguards with the knowledge, skills, and confidence to increase their future employability and prepare them for economic advancement. Research shows that young people that have access to personal finance education and career guidance have better outcomes as adults, which results in access to healthcare, financial security, mental stability, healthier lifestyles, and an overall higher quality of life.

The project entails each SRPD Lifeguard receiving three JA empowerment programs such as:
• JA It’s My Job -Soft Skills - Students learn the value of professional communication and soft skills, making them more employable across multiple career clusters.

Students practicing negotiating and conflict resolution during JA It's My Job – Soft Skills.

• JA Excellence Through Ethics – students will learn
the importance of ethics and ethical decision-
making and how ethical and unethical choices
affect everyone in a community.
• JA Personal Finance – Students experience the
interrelationship between today's financial decisions
and future financial freedom. To achieve financial
wellness, they learn about earning, employment and
income, budgeting, savings, credit and debt,
consumer protection, smart shopping, risk
management, investing, credit card use, debt
management, and net worth.
• JA Career Speaker Series - Brings professionals to students to share information about their career, work, and education and includes interactive discussions. • JA All About Cars - introduces students to the essential costs related to buying and operating a first car, and offers tips on being a smart consumer when purchasing a vehicle.

In addition, the lifeguards will walk away with magnitude of self-guided resources beyond the JA programs above such as:
• JA Connect - Offers an abundance of interactive, bite-size learning activities and resources in which students can track their progress toward attaining the skills, attitudes, and behaviors necessary to ensure they are workforce-ready and financially capable. • JA Afford Your Future – Young people explore income and education funding options that will help them make smart choices for your financial well-being in the future.

Implementation Schedule
• Coordinate with SRPD point of contact to select the three JA programs best suited for their teen and young adult lifeguards.
• Confirm details including dates, times, locations.
• Recruit volunteers from our business partners.
• Train volunteers and equip them with the JA Volunteer Guidebook and materials specifcto the JA program they are leading.
• Promote the partnership and supprot received from the City of Citrus Heights. • Evaluate success of project and the feasability of adopting the structure with other park and recreataion agencies throughout Sacramento County.
• Project Completion will be spring 2025.

Success will be measured by meeting the pre-determined quantitative goals including:
• With guidance from professionals, 100 SRPD teen and young adult lifeguards will participate in three JA economic empowerment programs providing experiential, hands-on learning activities to equip them with social and soft-skills critical to engaging with the hundreds of residents visiting pools daily.
• Three to six experienced JA volunteers will be recruited from our business partners to lead JA programs in classrooms and bring the curriculum to life by sharing their expertise and career and educational journeys.

Though it is hard to quantify the number of residents that will benefit from the teen and young adult lifeguards understanding the importance of social and soft skills, we anticipate positive interactions and resolutions to issues.

As a qualitative measure, we expect similar feedback received recently such as:
“I don’t think I would be ready to be an adult without this information.” (Student) “I am going to carry all the information I learned from this program to my life, and I am really excited to start on that journey.” (Student)
“I especially loved hearing you mention that it's okay to not be the best at what you're doing, but you should continue to improve to be the best version of yourself” (Student) “JA gets students to think more about real life outside the classroom.” (Teacher) Prior City of Citrus Heights Funding Awarded
JA will not be applying for 2025 CDBG funds. JA has received the following funding from the City of Citrus Heights in the past five years:
• 2023 - $3,500 community support was provided by the City of Citrus Heights through the Community Projects Grant that sparked the entrepreneurial curiosity in 250 young people at Skycrest Elementary School.
• 2024 - $8,200 prior community support was provided by the City of Citrus Heights through the Community Projects Grant that will focus on providing JA programs to elementary and/or middle school students.

Thank You
Thank you for the opportunity to partner with the City of Citrus Heights to enhance the quality of life of your residents. We are thrilled with current partnerships and look forward to continuing to serve the residents of Citrus Heights.

Non-profit Community Support Fund Program Grant Application 1 August 16, 2024

PROJECT PLAN & DESCRIPTION

1. A description of how funding will be used including steps for implementation, schedule for completion and expected outcomes.

Since 2006, the San Juan Education Foundation has funded more than $800,000 in Direct-to-School Grants across the San Juan Unified School District. Our 2024 – 2026 Strategic Plan focuses on raising more funds, deepening our impact, and engaging with a greater number of educators, families, and community members.

With a mission to harness the combined power of philanthropy and partnership to propel student achievement and enrich the lives of educators, funding from the City of Citrus Heights’ Non-profit Community Support Fund will be used to fund The Community, School, Family: Connection - Direct-To-School Grant Pilot Project at the following Citrus Heights elementary and K-8 schools:
• Arlington Heights Elementary School, 6401 Trenton Way, Citrus Heights • Cambridge Heights Elementary School. 555 Fleetwood Drive, Citrus Heights • Carriage Drive Elementary School, 7519 Carriage Drive, Citrus Heights • Grand Oaks Elementary School, 7901 Rosswood Drive, Citrus Heights • Kingswood K-8, 5700 Primrose Drive, Citrus Heights
• Lichen K-8, 8319 Lichen Drive, Citrus Heights
• Mariposa Avenue Elementary School, 7940 Mariposa Avenue, Citrus Heights • Skycrest Elementary School, 5641 Mariposa Avenue, Citrus Heights • Woodside K-8, 8248 Villa Oak Drive, Citrus Height
As community hubs, these schools are places where family and community members can come to connect, collaborate, and build community. When our school communities are active and engaged, the broader community thrives. This engagement fosters shared values, drives collective efforts toward common goals, enhances civic participation, and leads to greater student success.

Today’s Citrus Heights families deserve greater engagement opportunities and more support in raising our future leaders. More deeply engaged families and successful students will strengthen and improve the overall quality of life in Citrus Heights.

ITEM 11
Agenda Packet Page 253

Non-profit Community Support Fund Program Grant Application 2 August 16, 2024

Long-standing research proves that the more engaged families are in their children’s lives, whether at home or in school, the better their children’s success in school and in life will be.

Research by Kathleen Hoover-Dempsey, Joyce Epstein and Karen Mapp shows effective family engagement accomplishes five things:

1. Raises student achievement, improves behavior and student attendance rates, decreases dropout rates and improves the emotional and physical well -being of children;

2. Assists in the assessment of a child’s school readiness as well as the decision of students to pursue higher education;

3. Creates a greater equalizer for students, contributing to their increased academic achievement, regardless of parent education levels, ethnicity or socioeconomic background;

4. Raises student academic achievement so substantially that schools would need to increase spending by more than $1,000 per pupil to receive the same results; and

5. Creates positive benefits for children that span the life of a student. 1 Schools can play a significant role in building a stronger community through family and community engagement strategies like:
• Hosting After-school activities like festivals, celebrations, or open houses • Creating Welcoming Environments: resource rooms/display boards/signage/welcome kits (including things like hygiene items, laundry detergent, school supplies) • Offering Family Workshops/Trainings
• Implementing a Volunteer Recruitment and Recognition Program • Building Family Engagement Toolkits including welcoming information, homework help instruction, and engagement ideas (multi-lingual)
• Developing deeper partnerships with local service groups, non-profit agencies, and volunteers that can provide direct services to families to improve their lives However, most schools do not have enough funding to delve as deeply into family engagement as they desire. This pilot project will provide unrestricted funding of up to $1,000 per school to inspire and fund greater family and community engagement. (If not all schools decide to apply, the schools that do will receive more funding as their project can use it).

The Community, School, Family: Connection - Direct-To-School Grant Pilot Project will offer each of the schools listed above up to $1,000 to support a new or elevated family and community engagement strategy.

Non-profit Community Support Fund Program Grant Application 3 August 16, 2024

Should this funding be received, the following actions will be taken:

1. By October 1, 2024, the San Juan Education Foundation will distribute this Direct-to School Grant opportunity to school site leadership

2. In October 2024, San Juan Education Foundation leaders will collaborate with school site leadership to develop strategies and tactics to level up the school site’s family and community engagement efforts

3. By November 1, sites will submit a one-page request documenting their project goals, strategies/tactics, budget request, and timeline

4. By November 15, the grant awards will be approved and announced publicly

5. Between November 2024 and May 2025 sites will complete their projects

6. By June 30 sites will submit a one-page report documenting the project’s outcomes and successes (including data)

7. By August 30 the San Juan Education Foundation will submit a final report to the City of Citrus Heights and determine if this pilot project will continue
The expected outcomes of this pilot project are:

1. Increased numbers of family members engaged at each site.

2. Greater awareness among educators, family members, and students about the importance of family and community engagement (data collected by surveying participants who participate in the strategy).

3. Improved school environment (data will be collected from the annual School Climate Survey)

4. A survey of the sites’ experiences and the data collected above will determine if the San Juan Education Foundation will develop this pilot project into a regular Direct-to-School Grant Program.

2. Indicate the anticipated number of Citrus Heights residents served.

Approximately 3,500 students attend the nine schools targeted for this funding. Every one of these students could be served with this funding in addition to members of their families, however, we will assume only 50% of the families participate. If we assume one family member per student served by each school, we could reach at least 3,500 Citrus Heights Community Members. Additionally, educators at these schools (who may not reside in Citrus Heights) will also benefit from this investment.

3. List all prior City of Citrus Heights funding awarded to your organization over the past five years.

The San Juan Education Foundation does not currently receive, nor has it ever received, any direct funding from the City of Citrus Heights. However, since 2020, we have partnered with Republic Services to deliver the Republic Services/City of Citrus Heights Sustainability Scholarship Program, which funds three graduating seniors, who reside in Citrus Heights and plan to study environmental science, with $1,000 scholarships.

4. Is your organization applying for 2025 CDBC funds and if so, for what amount? No

Project Budget & Grant Request

1. What is the total proposed program/project costs?

This request is for $10,500. Direct costs will be $9,000 (up to $1,000 for each school in Citrus Heights) to pay for equipment, materials, and supplies that will level up their Family and Community Engagement efforts. We estimate approximately 25 hours of staffing to support this effort totaling $1,500.

2. Detail all current and anticipated funding sources. List other organizations/agencies for which your organization will receive funding for this project.

This request is to support a stand-alone pilot project and because it will focus on only a few schools in our district and has a geographic target, we will not request funding from others to support it. The Foundation, however, will use some of its own unrestricted funding to support staffing the effort.

This pilot project, however, could become something much greater if successful. The San Juan Education Foundation raises unrestricted funding all year long to support its Direct-to-Teacher/School Grant Program. During the 2023-24 school year, we awarded $155,000+ in grants to San Juan Unified classrooms. In the 2024-2025 school year, we will raise unrestricted funds to support at least $50,000 in Direct-to-School/Teacher Grants (separate from this pilot). We have also submitted grant requests to SMUD ($44,000) and SAFE Credit Union ($20,000) to support Direct-to-Teacher/School Grants specifically to increase STEM Education across the district during the 2024-25 school year.

3. For ongoing programs, describe how your organization will fund future expenses.

If this project is successful in terms of supporting increased family and community engagement the Foundation will consider adding the Community, School, Family: Connection - Direct-To-School Grant Program to our Direct-To-Teacher/School Grant Program Portfolio so that all schools and communities in our district can benefit.

If it is added to the grant program portfolio, the Foundation will raise funds to support this future program through grants and direct contributions just as we do for our other grant programs.

4. How much of the total project costs is your organization requesting from the City? We are requesting most of the project costs (95%) from the City for this pilot effort.

ITEM 11
Agenda Packet Page 256

5. Describe how the funding requested serves only Citrus Heights residents.

Only schools in Citrus Heights will be able to receive this funding. The San Juan Education Foundation does not typically offer this sort of geographically related project; however, we know there is great need for increased family and community engagement at our Citrus Heights schools. Additionally, this funding offers us a chance to pilot this effort to see if this sort of program would be worthwhile to grow across the entire district.

Thank you for considering our project for funding for the Non-profit Community Support Fund.

Remove and replace the asphalt in the parking lots at the Sunrise Christian Food Ministry campus located at Advent Lutheran Church
Attach the following details to the application in a separate file using a maximum of 3 pages) • A description of how funding will be used including steps for implementation, schedule for completion, and expected outcomes
The funding will be used to remove and replace the asphalt in the parking lots at the food closet campus.

This includes the 4 parking lots utilized daily by the food closet and the clients that visit the campus for food assistance. Once funding is secured the food closet and Advent Lutheran will enter into a contract with the selected contractor to complete the work as described on the attached proposal and diagram. The expected outcome of the project is improved safety and capacity to serve more Citrus Heights residents in need by repaving the parking lot and improving the traffic flow of the clients visiting the food closet. This will be accomplished by redefining the lanes used in the lot to hold waiting clients at the time of repavement.
• Indicate the anticipated number of Citrus Heights residents served 2500 unduplicated households consisting of 6900 unduplicated individuals annually. This number goes substantially high when you take into consideration that clients visit the food closet on average 3 times a year, with some visiting daily, weekly and/or on a monthly basis. As is the case with our numerous unhoused clients that visit the food closet every distribution day for a “ready to eat” sack meal.

Total cost of the project is to be split between Sunrise Christian Food Ministry and Advent Lutheran Church.

In addition to the City of Citrus Heights, the Food Closet is supported by 26 faith based organizations, civic groups and private donors. Funding for this project will be raised via our existing and future donors as a one time fundraising campaign to remove and replace the parking lots at our campus. • For ongoing programs, describe how your organization will fund future expenses. n/a

Our goal is to increase the number of Citrus Heights residents we serve. In order to do this we must make ourselves available to all individuals facing food insecurity. Without this provision to include all geographic areas, the Sunrise Food Closet wouldn’t have the resources to serve our City’s residents.

Opening our services to all allows us to provide a much greater amount and variety of food to all our clients, including the residents of Citrus Heights.

Agenda Packet Page 270
Project Plan & Description
Single-parent families are an underserved, at-risk population, who, without support, may experience disastrous health and socioeconomic outcomes that can affect generations and balloon already burdened social services systems. Single Mom Strong's innovative blueprint deploys comprehensive resources like support systems, career advancement tools and extraordinary childcare solutions to improve these families' trajectories.

Single Mom Strong (SMS) is a local nonprofit organization with a mission to empower single mothers and their children through enrichment, encouragement and educational programs. According to “Be Healthy Sacramento”, 26% of children under the age of 18 in Sacramento County reside in single-parent households. The BHS website states, “Adults and children in single-parent households are at a higher risk for adverse health effects. They are more likely to develop depression, smoke, and abuse alcohol and other substances… [They] suffer from lower perceived health and higher risk of mortality.” Additionally, children of single parents are more likely to have educational deficiencies, engage in high-risk sexual behavior, have lower occupational status and income as adults, and give birth outside of marriage themselves.

SMS works to prevent these outcomes for our families by:
-Fostering connection: The community aspect of SMS is one of the most important to these mothers, who have little to no support and find comfort in bonds built on their common experience.
-Increasing economic stability: Career Advancement tools, like Career Exploration events, Career coaching and the Career Clothing Closet, directly influence career success.
-Providing childcare solutions: EmpowerME Preschool & Childcare is quality early childhood education, that's affordable, even on a single-income budget. Full-day childcare is also offered to school-age children during school closures.

Single Mom Strong has been operating in Citrus Heights for five years. While our programs serve single-parent families throughout the Sacramento region, our greatest saturation is in the City of Citrus Heights. Our high-quality, low-cost preschool and childcare program: EmpowerME (which we are proud to say has been named “Best of Citrus Heights” three years in a row!), can serve up to 67 children at capacity in Citrus Heights each day, providing them a solid foundation to their education, while allowing single mothers to work with confidence that their child is being well cared for. Not only do the children benefit from the safety and educational support provided in our center, but their mothers have the ability to provide for their families, with the assurance that their children are being well-prepared for school. Plus, the financial burden is less than they would experience elsewhere, since our pricing is approximately 30% lower than average preschool tuition in our region. This savings significantly impacts the family budget.

ITEM 11
Agenda Packet Page 271
Single Mom Strong’s current workforce development programming includes Pre- Employment Coaching: one-on-one sessions with local business executives that provide a single mother assistance in improving a resume, practice interviewing or a knowledgeable resource to explore a career change with, the Career Clothing Closet which gives single mothers free access to professional clothing for interviews or job readiness and Career Exploration events, which provide information and access to industries with minimal education requirements and high-income potential, in order to increase single mothers' income and long-term financial security, while contributing to regional economic development.

Registration forms, which include basic demographic information, are completed by all program attendees, and, as a licensed childcare provider, enrollment paperwork must be accurately completed for each EmpowerME participant. Addresses are included in enrollment paperwork, which is updated annually. These two tools allow us to measure engagement of Citrus Heights residents.

In the past year, our network of single mothers has increased from just over 800 single moms to 1,308. However, as this community has grown, utilization by Citrus Heights residents has not proportionately increased. 23% of children in Citrus Heights reside in a household led by a single mother. With approximately 8,000 single mothers residing in Citrus Heights, we recognize a great opportunity to serve this City. Therefore, this project will focus on hyper-local growth, by building relationships and awareness in Citrus Heights schools of Single Mom Strong programs and services. Not only will this increase our reach among Citrus Heights families, but it will support the City’s strategic priority of “Enhanc[ing] community vibrancy and engagement” by “partnering with San Juan Unified School District to support student and parent investment into Citrus Heights schools.”
In prior years, 76% of EmpowerME Preschool & Childcare participants resided in Citrus Heights, but this has changed to 41% currently. The remainder of Single Mom Strong programming serves single mothers throughout the Sacramento region. 5 of the 50 single mothers who utilized a Single Mom Strong service in the past 90 days reside in Citrus Heights. Single Mom Strong has the capacity and opportunity to serve many more Citrus Heights families. We believe, through the effort made with this project, we can not only increase the percentage of EmpowerME utilization by Citrus Heights residents to the prior level, but we can increase Career Advancement and Men’s Mentoring program utilization to double the current level with the entire increase comprised of Citrus Heights residents. An estimate of residents served upon completion will be:

-EmpowerME (with limited turn-over): 70 attendees*75%= 53 children+53 mothers= 106 -The Career Clothing Closet is expected to serve 80 per year. Assuming half of the beneficiaries are Citrus Heights residents, 40 will be served in the next year. -Pre-Employment Coaching: 2 per week after project completion= 8/ month * 50%= 4/ month or 48 per year
-Career Exploration Events: 30 attendees * 50%= 15 per event * 3 events per year= 45 residents served
-Men’s Mentoring Team: 16 participants * 50%= 8 residents served

ITEM 11
Agenda Packet Page 272
Success will be measured by both increased awareness of Single Mom Strong within the City of Citrus Heights, and sustained relationships with Citrus Heights schools.

Long-term success will be indicated by utilization of each service, as outlined above.

Project Funding & Grant Request

The total project cost is $13,276. Project costs include a temporary college marketing intern to research and create a school contact datatbase, administer marketing and begin to build collaborative relationships with all Citrus Heights Schools. The budget also includes on-site school events, equipment, supplies, and two direct mailing campaigns for homes within a one-mile radius of the Empowerment Center. This equates to a cost of $53.75 per Citrus Heights resident served. The majority of the project is comprised of one-time upfront costs. Once the research is done, a directory of school and contact information is created and relationships are formed, our Childcare Director can maintain the relationships made with the schools and we can reduce the frequency of on-site school visits and events, continuing them quarterly by utilizing existing staff and requesting small donations or grants from local service clubs for supplies.

Single Mom Strong will not be applying for CDBG funding.

Project Plan & Description
A description of how funding will be used including steps for implementation, schedule for completion, and expected outcomes
UCP is requesting funding to offer 9 recreation activities in Citrus Heights that will span out throughout the year, with preference for attendance for Citrus Heights families. In addition to the reoccurring activity, we are looking to create new opportunities for events in Citrus Heights. We are looking for funding to partially cover the costs of 3 Movie Nights and 7 Skate Nights. The funding will allow us to reduce the cost to families. We are requesting $8,055 to cover rental, food, and other expenses listed in the budget attached.

Particularly, we have seen success in two events that we host; a sensory movie night and roller-skating nights. A sensory movie night is an event where UCP’s recreation team books an entire theater and works with the theater staff to adjust the lights, audio, include subtitles, and provide space for the participants. Movie theaters can be overwhelming for some of our participants. We aim to create a safe space where our participants are free to express themselves by singing, crying, dancing, walking around, talking or shouting while enjoying a movie. Movie nights have allowed an opportunity for parents to relax during a movie and not have high anxiety because of what their child may do doing the movie.

Because all of our families have similar experiences, there is room for empathy, patience, and understanding. In addition, movie nights have allowed our participants to go to the movies with friends and experience date nights. During the skate nights, we work with the Sunrise Rollerland to provide an empty rink that allow easy accessibility for walkers for some participants, lots of space for wheelchairs to go as fast as they want with less worry for safety and allowing everyone the opportunity to skate no matter the level. We have seen participants who have moved from being wheeled around the rink to now skating with a walker in a matter of three skating visits
Our goal is to host movie nights at the Greenback movie theater, providing a closer opportunity to Citrus Heights families. We already have an established partnership with Sunrise Rollerland, and are aiming to expand what we do together.

It is important that UCP works together with the individuals we serve to set goals, create personalized plans, and put those plans into practice, ensuring that those we serve have a voice in their actions. UCP will use staff and volunteers to manage and support the day-of recreational activities. Recreational activities are currently paid for through private pay for ITEM 11
Agenda Packet Page 283

clients with some funding available through a grant received to help reduce the cost of programs for families.

We monitor success and suggestions for future events through surveys sent to families that ask quantitative questions on a scale of 1-5 rating their experience, as well as qualitative questions such as “What was your child’s favorite part of the event. ” These events have been successful in other locations in the past so we believe they will be successfully replicated in Citrus Heights.
• Indicate the anticipated number of Citrus Heights residents served UCP currently has 60 Recreation Participants that live in Citrus Heights. We also have many clients in our Family Respite program who reside in Citrus Heights, which we hope to include. Many of our families have restrictions surrounding transportation and thus, taking the events we host into speciﬁc communities, those families will be able to attend.

Organizational History
Yes2Kollege Educational Resources Inc. (Y2K) is a non-profit organization established in 2002 by Executive Director Sharon Chandler. The organization’s mission is to provide African American students and families with educational tools and resources to live a healthy and productive life while successfully aspiring to higher education opportunities and careers. Ms. Chandler founded the organization based on her experiences raising her two children as first-generation college graduates.

Nearly ten years ago, Y2K took on the challenge of addressing chronic diseases like Type 2 Diabetes, Hypertension, and Obesity in the African American community. Three women gathered around a kitchen table with homemade soups, salads, and cookies, dedicating themselves to learning about these diseases. They created the African American Women’s Health Legacy (AAWHL) program to educate and empower women and girls to prioritize wellness for themselves and their families by incorporating fresh fruits, vegetables, and herbs into their diets.

Since 2021, Y2K has implemented a mini-patio garden project program for more than 50 African-American seniors living in apartment complexes in Sacramento County. Yielding more than just food and vegetables, we have developed a sense of community for participants, addressing the epidemic of loneliness and isolation. The seniors have learned how to increase their use of food vouchers at farmers’ markets and have built support networks for emergency services and information sharing.

1. A description of how funding will be used, including steps for implementation, schedule for completion, and expected outcomes.

Acknowledging that Y2K cannot serve all vulnerable communities throughout Sacramento, Y2K is proposing training and providing technical assistance to a learning cohort of 10 non-profit organizations in the Citrus Heights community that work with low-income Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) families and older adults to help them develop and implement a mini-garden program. The City of Citrus Heights’ residents would benefit from local agencies' ability to efficiently promote and improve individual and community nutrition and food sovereignty through increased consumption of fresh produce.

ITEM 11
Agenda Packet Page 287

Participating organizations will receive training and technical assistance in a year-long learning cohort program to learn how to develop and implement a sustainable garden program. The program includes a service-learning project identifying 25 Citrus Heights families to install mini-gardens, provide nutritional education, and cooking demonstrations. In addition, the Mini-Garden TTA participants and the 25 families will also take field trips to local farms, community gardens, or farmers’ markets.

nutrition, promote community engagement, and increase access to local food sources in Citrus Heights.

This will be achieved through sustainable gardening practices, nutritional education, and community engagement strategies. The program will also focus on improving individual and community nutrition by increasing access to fresh produce through mini-gardens, fostering a sense of optimism and positivity.

Additionally, the program will involve a service-learning project benefiting 25 families (approximately 125 + individuals) and expose participants to local food systems through field trips. The sustainable impact of the program will be achieved through the training and technical assistance provided to participating organizations, creating a ripple effect of improved food security, nutrition, and community well-being in Citrus Heights.

2. Indicate the anticipated number of Citrus Heights residents served. The service-learning project will significantly and immediately impact 25 families (approximately 125+ individuals) in Citrus Heights by delivering tangible and meaningful benefits. Each of the 25 households will have a mini-garden installed, providing them with a sustainable source of fresh fruits and vegetables at their doorstep. This direct access to homegrown produce will improve their dietary habits and reduce their reliance on store-bought goods, potentially leading to significant savings on grocery expenses.

These organizations work directly with low-income BIPOC families and older adults in the community, ensuring that the program's benefits are confined to Citrus Heights. Additionally, the service-learning project funded by this program will focus on identifying and supporting 25 families within Citrus Heights. These families will have mini-gardens installed at their homes, receive nutritional education, and participate in cooking demonstrations designed to immediately improve their access to fresh produce and enhance their overall health. This program will fund field trips and other educational activities for Citrus Heights Mini-Garden TTA organizations and participating families. These activities, including visits to local farms, community gardens, and farmers’ markets, are meticulously designed to strengthen the local food system and ensure the program's benefits remain within the community. The funding is aimed at creating a positive and lasting impact within Citrus Heights by strengthening the capacity of the community, ensuring food security, and promoting the overall well-being of its residents.

FY 2024-2025 Economic Development Support Fund Budget
*The Non-Profit Community Support Fund will be considered at the October 9, 2024, City Council meeting, and this total reflects staff recommendations and is dependent on the City Council's final vote.

Allocations will be distributed on a first -come, first-served basis. However, funding balances are not fixed and will be adjusted based on departmental demand forecasts. This approach allows for flexibility in funding based on program participation levels.

Background and Analysis

In response to the City Council's direction to enhance community connection, staff developed targeted community engagement programming to promote participation in Neighborhood Associations and support for REACH. These efforts resulted in record interest levels for attendance at the Neighborhoods USA (NUSA) conference last fiscal year, sparking discussions around practical funding usage. As a result, the Council directed staff to return with a policy ensuring these funds are used to empower residents to shape their neighborhoods.

The City Council acknowledges the value of attending conferences and workshops, such as Neighborhoods USA (NUSA), to promote community engagement and foster community connection. During the April 11, 2024, City Council meeting, the Council directed staff to develop a policy for using the Neighborhood Improvement Partnership funds to support t he NAs and REACH in attending conferences and workshops. The Council expressed concern that this funding allocation should not negatively impact the availability of funds for the Neighborhood Improvement Partnership Grant, ensuring that community- driven improvement projects remain fully supported.
