Without access to positive role models, they often fall prey to the dysfunctional cycles of poverty, delinquency, teen pregnancy, substance abuse, and incarceration that characterize their neighborhoods and schools. Mentoring is an evidence based approach to addressing positive youth outcomes, and is one of the strategies identified by the Center for Disease Control and Prevention as a means to prevent juvenile delinquency. Big Brothers Big Sisters has been identified as a "Model" program by the U.S. Office of Juvenile Justice & Delinquency Prevention. 4h u,��111�I!11eI11 ��lll'��111�/ ��1111_�1II'��11I ��III �III`� ��III�III/olll% ��III�/�III 0111 111 °111 FEMIII0®II1' 5F9 OI11M.1110 111 , 1II EI1I EG!/111ee1110E1110 E `III u L Our Model n II The core concepts of the BBBS model are: • Volunteer efficacy —volunteers feel and are effective.

These interrelated stressors have a cumulative effect of making youth more vulnerable to destructive behaviors and delinquency. The risk factors for delinquency that exist for the majority of youth currently being served in mentoring relationships, and on the waiting list, include: 1) economic deprivation 2) family conflict, parent separation (including due to incarceration), and low levels of parental involvement 3) substance using or gang involved peers 4) presence of hyperactivity/low attention 5) being a member of a racial/ethnic minority. u��111�11I �111'� !_� III �11I � �`�I11�III �111 ��III �111 ��i1111�11I%�Iil'/ �l�lllelll G 111 1'11 E°1'11' 111 '-a11'1 E 1.11E111 :-E-111 ELM E111' /111 1110E111051e1 111 II WhyBigBrothers BigSisters? a Our Children's Success Since 2002 adult volunteers mentor thousands of the most vulnerable youth across the Brazos Valley in our evidence based mentoring program.

Brazos County has seen tremendous growth in the past decades,and it seems that pace will only accelerate. With this growth comes hardships. Food,housing,and clothing insecurities contribute to the lack of education,crime,and a miserable life for an increasing number. These hardships negatively impact all the citizens of Brazos County. Reactive responses to the problem require more and more tax dollars. In 2023,The Salvation Army on Cavitt Avenue distributed 510,000 pounds of food to 27,510 hungry individuals,5981 items of clothing;helped 98 families with rental assistance,and assisted 169 families to prevent their utilities from being cut off. Many other services that we provided are listed on the printed sheet. Until March of this year,due to COVID,our food pantry program provided food to those in our community with food insecurity every Wednesday. Each family was allowed to receive food once a month.We brought the food to their car. Many times this winter,the line of cars was NINE BLOCKS LONG,all waiting for help.Oftentimes we were out of food by 10:00 a.m.Anyone who had to work that morning or came on a different day was sadly1turned away empty-handed. The cycle of reactive assistance repeats over and over.What if there is a proven way to reak this cycle of poverty for those who truly hope to be self-reliant?The Salvation Army of Brazos County's quest is to break this cycle of poverty for those in Brazos County who truly want a better life for themselves and their families. It is called the Pathway of Hope. This Salvation Army program has achieved remarkable, proven success in many locations th Ioughout the United States. It has and is working right here. In 2023,seven families were in the Pathway of Hope program'. Currently,for food distribution, we are having clients come inside,and we visit about their needs.We are unique.We are providing more than food. This interaction is the first step in the Pathway of Hope. But with our current facilities,we are only able to make a difference to some,not all,of the people who yearn to become self-reliant.We want to build hope,a!Center of Hope.As you will see, we want to shepherd many more people who want to lead a better life. Success will take working with them and their families for a few months or,in some cases,two years in nutrition,life and job skills,securing transportation,clothing, finance,and a mirid of the things necessary to live life more abundantly. Part of this life-changing program includes transitional housing for families. Our desire is not to duplicate the services provided by many excellent charities in Brazos County.Instead,we would like to work alongside them and with them for the greater good of our citizens. Another service we provide is Disaster relief. The Salvation Army Disaster Services and the Baptist Men are known for being the first to arrive on the scene,working alongside law enforcement,fire departments,and utility crews. Beryl called us to serve. For thirteen days,Our Brazos County Corps canteen provided 6,400 meals. The Salvation Army served 12,877 meals plus over 76,000 drinks,13,000 snacks,and over 6,000 cases of water. Disasters don't just cause physical harm but long-lasting mental trauma. We provide comfort and spiritual care. We stay until hope returns.The Army provided emotional and spiritual care to 11,642 hurting individuals in the Houston area We are driven to be good stewards'of the gifts bestowed on us.The funds given in Braz s County will stay in Brazos County.We are a mix of professionals and volunteers. The Salvation Army has full-timec employees such as professional ministers,educators,accountants,psychologists,and workers.The Pathway of Hope is staffed by paid professionals.We want to ensure someone is always there to serve when needed. However,the Advisory Board of the Salvation Army of Brazos County is a diverse group of local people who see, understand,and make sure those in need are helped.The i Women's Auxiliary,The Aggie Salvation Army,the tutoring programs,disaster relief,and food distribution rely on volunteers to help the most,with the most efficiency.The Salvation Army spends 83 cents of every dollar donated to programs. If we are not effective good stewards,citizens don't support us. We have served Brazos County for 75 years.We ask for your support to meet the needs--of our hometowns and county as we grow.This is a special place with lofty goals.Please join us in Doing the Most Gook .: 1 �i 1 . ` :'..:, 'N '";:Q.:': \ ' OUSE ,,.. ,,,, , , SCOTTY s \ . .
