In partnership with community adults, we nurture young people in Red Hook to be inspired, resilient, and healthy, and to envision themselves as co-creators of their lives, community and society. We envision a Red Hook where all young people can pursue their dreams and grow into independent adults who contribute to their families and community. false false 2615351 13624 High School Programs (ages 14-18): When members reach 9th grade they become Youth Leaders (YL) at RHI. This is a 4-year program focused on employment, education and leadership. YLs not only focus on their own goals and personal development, they are also employees at RHI and receive training to provide programs and services to their peers. Each YL works close to 10 hours per week with some time spent on tutoring and academic support. Exposure to opportunities in college and careers, as well as developing life skills, are important program components during these years at RHI. Every 11th and 12th grade student has a weekly post-secondary planning group in addition to their work as a YL. In FY18, the High School Program served 100 students from the Red Hook community who reached hundreds of their peers and neighbors. Young Adult Programs (ages 19-24): RHI served over 200 young adults through small group and individual services in FY18. Formal programs and groups include: HSE classes, College Scholars Program (for students planning to apply to college or working toward a two or four year degree), Work Progress Program (8-12 week placement in paid job-training program), and a professional development training program (two-week program teaching basics in job readiness and professional development). Individual services include: coaching, benefits screening, clinical counseling, legal referrals and housing referrals.Community Building Programs: RHIs work to build a healthy and sustainable Red Hook flows directly out of our focus on youth development, but engages residents of all ages. Our approach to community building is to facilitate authentic participation and leadership, build social capital, and create positive institutional change in Red Hook. High school juniors and seniors learn about community organizing and advocacy and then lead an action or campaign of their choice. Since 2014, RHI has trained over 200 adult Local Leaders in emergency preparedness and community organizing, equipping public housing residents to be resilient in the face of emergencies and building their collective power. 2615351 true true false false false false false false false false true false false false false true true false false false false false false true true false false false true false false false false false false false false false false false true false false false false false false false false false true 22 0 true 247 true false false false false false false true true false 0 false false false false false false false false false false X 13 13 false false false false false false false true true false false true true true true true true true false false NY X Barrie Koegel 7188586782 767 Hicks Street Brooklyn NY 11231 Gregg Bishop President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Janice McGuire Vice President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 David Xi Bing Ma Treasurer 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Maria Mottola Secretary 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Andrew Strauss Vice President 1.00 0.00 X X 0 0 0 Millicent Comrie Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 John Kline Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Brandon Holley Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Rebecca Kirszner Katz Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Donovan Hamlet Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Chris Cardona Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jennifer Wheary Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Eden Wurmfeld Director 1.00 0.00 X 0 0 0 Jill Eisenhard Executive Dir. 40.00 0.00 X 135540 0 0 Jennifer Sainsbury Chief Prog.

These grants include computers for College Scholars going off to school for the first time. Other grants tend to be to address a crisis, which is evaluated by an RHI Case Manager or Social Worker, who then maintains a relationship with the recipient to make sure the grants are being maximized. Typical requests are for transportation (to school or work), text books or food. Those in need are required to complete an application, with support from an RHI Case Manager or Social Worker who is helping to identify and name the need; determine what amount of support is appropriate; and incorporate the grant into a bigger picture action plan to handle the emergency situation. The application includes questions about what other forms of funding have been investigated. The applicant/recipient signs off on receipt of the grant and the Social Worker or Case Manager follows up on its use/application. These are awarded on a case by case basis.
