CRCS staff works with eligible nonprofits in the community to help court volunteers complete their service. CRCS staff also coordinates participation in the Hospital and Morgue (HAM) Program and Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) Victim Impact Panels to help build awareness and empathy for people with specific offenses. This ensures that court volunteers can maintain their employment, education and other positive influences while completing their community service. 192180 OPERATION TEDDY BEAR Operation Teddy Bear is the Volunteer Centers volunteer-powered literacy program that provides an educational boost through a kind gift more than 4,000 schoolbags filled with books, educational materials and wellness tools, along with a lesson in kindness, compassion, volunteering and identifying emotions to the most underserved first-graders in the South Bay, Harbor and Long Beach areas each year. The program also provides volunteers with an opportunity to help the children first-hand by preparing items and schoolbags, and then interacting with students in the classrooms. During school visits, volunteers read an original story about kindness, facilitating a lesson about helping others, and they use the experience of receiving the schoolbag and the teddy bear to help the students identify, process and work through their emotions. 149377 FOOD FOR KIDS Food For Kids is the Volunteer Centers volunteer and donation-driven food pantry that provides bags of non-perishable food and health-related inserts to low-income elementary school students at partner schools each week. Volunteers sort, pack and deliver bags of food filled with enough items to make two breakfasts, two lunches and two dinners for a family of four to the schools every Friday. The schools identify families with the greatest need, and those students take the bags home to share over the weekend. 106127 4900 912258 true true false false false false false false false true true true false false false false true false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false true 3 0 true 17 true false false false false false false false 0 false false false false false false false X 16 16 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true true false CA X TREASURER 3102125009 1230 CRAVENS AVENUE TORRANCE CA 90501 SARA MYERS Executive Dir. 50.00 0.00 X 102601 0 1752 BETTY LIEU Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 SANDY MUKAI-KIM Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 RENEE MOILANEN Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 ROSEANNEY LIU Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 ELIANA SANCHEZ Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 STEVE KOVARY Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 SHIRLEY STARKE-WALLACE Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 PAULA COX-MARSHALL Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 HEATHER GOYAN Director 2.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 BRENDA WILLIAMS BOARD CHAIR 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 KEVIN MORROW Treasurer 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 BETSY BRIEN SECRETARY 3.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 DENISE BEGGS Fund.

Recipients are selected based on their ability to overcome challenging circumstances while still finding time to make a positive contribution in the community. Applicants learn about the scholarship through their high schools, and awardees can use the scholarship toward the college of their choice. Funding for the program is generated through the interest from the Durfee Family Scholarship Fund. Most recently, five scholarships at $1,000 each were provided to resilient and deserving students. OTHER PROGRAM SERVICES 6: YOUTH MENTAL HEALTH Evidence-based community prevention programs that help students connect with peers in an informal non-profit or youth program setting are not easily accessible locally. Teens asked for a safe, neutral space in which they could learn to better balance their lives, and learn to identify and express emotions in healthy ways. They loved the idea of a program that would teach them resiliency skills, and help them be kinder and gentler with both themselves and others.In response, the Volunteer Center has worked closely with families and mental health professionals to reimagine its popular teen program, now renamed Connect. Connect is designed to be an accessible program framework to bring helpful coping tools and proven techniques to teens in their own, non-medical environment. The program will help teens with:Strength and value identificationSelf-acceptanceGroup sharing and belongingEmotional intelligenceCoping skillsConnect also addresses the concern that students, parents and community leaders share around the excessive use of disconnection vices such as screen time and its impact on emotions, sleep and feelings of isolation. While designed ultimately to be a prevention and early intervention program, the Volunteer Center has hired a certified mental health professional (LPCC) to create specific lesson plans and presents six Connect calls, (five for teens and one for parent/caregivers) during the pilot.
