(Continued fro m pafte / column 3)
supervision for community events
and cleaning up after those events
are over.
"Since the program began, more
than 100 youths have completed the
program and better than 90 percent
were successful,” she said. "M ost
o f the young people who are
referred are experiencing some kind
o f school difficulty."
In search o f ways to teach and
show youth the folly o f getting in
trouble with the law, Mayfield said
"W e wanted to bring in people who
were positive role models, so we
brought in the Northwest Ex
offender Association as role
models. They (ex-offenders) en
courage the young people to stay in
school, to give something back to
the community,” she said.
“ We are also trying to work with
the Uhuru Cultural Club (the Black
inmate cultural club at the Oregon
State Penitentiary) in the same
way.”
M ayfield said the program is in
need of many things: vans or a large
bus to transport the youngsters,
more counselors and the bottom line
is, “ We need more money.”
"A s programs are cut we will be
called upon more and m ore,” she
said. “ We need jobs for the
youngsters. We have 80 to 90
youngsters who are waiting for em
ployment.”
One of the things they are looking
into is “ Youth-run businesses” —
business enterprises that youth can
operate solely and independent o f
adults. A workshop is scheduled for
November
on
“ youth-run
businesses” that will bring in com
munity business people to aid and
assist the youth in making selections
for possible business enterprises.
Many other things are being done
out at the Northeast facility such as
the sponsorship o f the Stars and
Stripes D rill team which has up
coming performance dates with the
Trailblazers basketball team in Por
tland and the Seahawks football
team in Seattle. Recently the cent
cr purchased approxim ately 80
books from the Talking Drum Book
Store to set up a reading center that
will encourage the youth to think.
Many other things are in the plan
ning stage that will facilitate the
learning experience.
“ There are some extremely g if
ted, talented Black youth who need
the support o f the com munity so
they can become productive
citizens— that is, productive citizens
anywhere,” Mayfield said. “ Even
though all o f the five Youth
Programs have small operating
budgets— they are quality services.”
