Boys & Girls Clubs of Omaha
Career Explorer Club Grant Proposal
Executive Summary
The Boys & Girls Clubs of Omaha proposes to provide 100 youth ages 14 and 15 with opportunities to actively
participate in a comprehensive career exploration and academic support program. The program is called Career
Explorers Club. Boys & Girls Clubs of Omaha will offer the program at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Omaha's
North Omaha unit located at 2606 Hamilton Street from September 3, 2002 through August 31, 2003.
For forty years Boys & Girls Clubs of Omaha have been in the forefront of youth development, working with
young people from disadvantaged economic, social and family circumstances. Boys & Girls Clubs of Omaha
have actively sought to enrich the lives of both girls and boys whom other youth agencies have failed to reach.
Boys & Girls Clubs of Omaha has five locations located at 2606 Hamilton Street, 3506 Franklin Street, South
22nd Street, Carter Lake and Southgate Housing Apartment Complex in Bellevue.
Program Components
The Career Explorers Club program will provide both academic and career development support. The Career
Explorers Club will provide career exploration activities for youth ages 14 and 15 before they are of
employment age. It is designed to educate boys and girls about career opportunities, orient them to the world of
work and begin preparing them for employment opportunities. Through its engaging instructional activities,
participants explore interests, identify options and begin to make plans for the future. Career Explorers Club
helps the participants anticipate a future that will be productive, rewarding and worth working.
The academic support component will establish the vital link between academic training and employment
opportunities for tomorrow. Through the academic component of the program we want the participants to:
• Be proficient in basic educational disciplines
• Be able to use technology
• Graduate from high school
• Be motivated to pursue learning opportunities throughout their lives.
Without significant educational support, many of the participants may accept low standards of academic
achievement and lower their aspirations for higher education and careers. Low achievement in school is a
pathway to unrealized potential—and can lock young people into limited options for employment. We address
this serious circumstance through tutoring and high yield learning activities that reinforces skills necessary for
success in school.
The BGCO proposal responds to the Workforce Investment Board's (WIA)request for proposals (RFP) for
Youth Workforce Development Services. The purpose of the RFP is to provide to eligible youth seeking
assistance in achieving activities, which shall include a variety of options for improving educational and skill
competencies and provide effective connections to employers; and to ensure on-going mentoring opportunities
for eligible youth with adults committed to providing such.
The Career Explorers Club will operate Monday through Thursday from 5:00 to 7:30 p.m.
1
•
Health & Life Skills —develop the participants' capacity to engage in positive behaviors and live successfully
as self-sufficient adults. This component also helps the participants prevent the use of alcohol, tobacco and
other drugs. The programs include Smart Moves, Smart Girls, and Passport to Manhood.
Character & Leadership Development— empowers youth to support and influence their community and
develop a positive self-image. Through the Keystone Club the youth will plan community service activities
both inside and outside of the programs. Youth that participate in the Keystone Club are given additional points
when applying for scholarships managed or offered by Boys & Girls Clubs of Omaha. The club manages 27
different scholarships.
The Career Explorers Club program hours will be 5:00 P.M. to 7:30 P.M. Monday through Thursday. The
program will be held at the Boys & Girls Clubs of Omaha's North Omaha unit located at 2606 Hamilton Street.
The duration of the program will be September 3, 2002 through August 31, 2003.
The participants will be able to access career exploration stations at the Club that will enable them to have
actual hands-on experiences with a minimum of 3 different stations such as retail, telemarketing and food
service. The participants will be able to participant in college prep activities, and guidance and counseling.

Each participant will receive a nutritious meal and then spend at least one hour in a designated `learning center"
completing homework assignments, or being tutored. Staff and volunteers will conduct small-group tutorial
sessions each day. Participants who do not present homework assignments will complete Power Pages, which
contain grade-appropriate problems or questions that reinforce basic skills. The participants will take part in
high-yield learning activities that enable them to practice using academic skills in fun ways such as pen-pal
clubs, quiz bowls, geography bees, newspaper production and computer-based learning. Friday will be devoted
to service projects that stimulate skill development.
The Career Explorers Club program is driven by three fundamental goals:
1. Increase the participants' academic readiness by implementing after-school learning opportunities
and rigorous academic preparation.
2. Increase the participants' pro-social and resiliency skills for better relationships with peers, better
management of conflicts, more cooperation with adults, and greater self-confidence.
3. Provide the participants' parents with opportunities to become comfortable in assisting with their
children's learning processes.

Conclusion
Teens in Nebraska want to work. Employment is an important part of their socialization and development to
independent adulthood. They want the value and importance that comes with a job, and they want the rewards,
especially money. Some teens need help to develop the skills necessary to successfully enter and stay in the
work force. The Boys & Girls Club of Omaha, through its Career Explorers Club program, is prepared to serve
100 youth annually in need of career exploration and job readiness services. These young people are worth the
investment now, and the support for this program will be seen for years to come as participants enter adulthood
and pursue careers of interest and contribute to the local economy. Without the hope and promise of work and
self-sufficiency, and left to their own devices, these teens may get involved in negative activities, and require
the very costly resources of the juvenile and criminal justice system. They are worth the investment now.

The program can enhance the protective factors among the participants by teaching their parents to take a more
active role in their children's lives including talking with them about drugs, monitoring their activities, getting
to know their friends and understanding their personal concerns.
i) The youth will have an opportunity to evaluate each component of the program. The evaluation will include
the ability to make suggestions for improving the program.

• Boys and Girls Clubs of Omaha is a part of a nationwide affiliation of local, autonomous organizations. The
national organization, Boys and Girls Clubs of America, works together with the local chapters to help youth of
all backgrounds develop the qualities needed to become responsible citizens and leaders. Boys and Girls Clubs
of Omaha employs 80 paid professional staff supplemented by 682 part-time volunteers.
Evaluation
The Boys& Girls Clubs of Omaha will evaluate the program. With prior approval from Greater Omaha
Workforce Development, we will seek the assistance from the University of Nebraska at Omaha for help in
developing the evaluation process and refinement of the evaluation tools.
Conclusion
Teens in Nebraska want to work. Employment is an important part of their socialization and development to
independent adulthood. They want the value and importance that comes with a job, and they want the rewards,
especially money. Some teens need help to develop the skills necessary to successfully enter and stay in the
work force. The Boys & Girls Club of Omaha, through its Career Explorers Club program, is prepared to serve
100 youth annually in need of career exploration and academic support services. These young people are worth
the investment now, and the support for this program will be seen for years to come as participants enter
adulthood and pursue careers of interest and contribute to the local economy. Without the hope and promise of
work and self-sufficiency, and left to their own devices, these teens may get involved in negative activities, and
require the very costly resources of the juvenile and criminal justice system. They are worth the investment
now.

NARRATIVE
Narrative for SECTION A—Budget Summary by Categories
Personal (Salaries & Wages): The career education components will be delivered in class sizes
with a 1 to 20 ratio. There will be one exception to this rule, and that is, in the area of academic
support—tutoring. Tutoring and homework help will be delivered in smaller groups, based on
the needs of the participants. The staffing configuration enables the certified teach and
education/career director to provide concentrated academic assistance as needed. The outcomes
identified in this proposal supports Greater Work Force Developments desire to see the
participants improve academically. The Youth Development Professionals will conducted the
daily career exploration classes and facilitate the occupation stations.
Transportation: Staff transportation cost will be absorbed by BGCO.
Equipment Rental: To assist the participants in exploring the variety of occupations, traditional
and nontraditional occupation stations will be utilized. The stations will be hands-on activities
where the participants can learn about the occupation and explore its probability as a career. The
stations will be in place a minimum of 5 days to a maximum of 4 weeks.
Confirmed stations include: Cashier—4 cash registers will be rented at $175 per month, 2
register will be restaurant registers and 2 will be retail registers ($175 X 4 registers = $700.00).
Volunteers from the employee training units from restaurants and retail stores will conduct the
classes. The youth will learn the importance of math in the restaurant and retail sectors.
Educational use microscopes will be rented. $100 per week X 4 weeks X 4 microscopes =
$1600. Volunteers from the medical, health research, agriculture research and forensic research
will conduct the classes on how this job tool can be used. Real-time Captioners machines will be
rented. It is guesstimated that the machines will cost $300 per week to rent, if a local vendor can
be secured.
Supplies: Staff supplies include paper, pencils, pens, computer disks, files, lesson plan books,
calendars, and copies.
Youth supplies include paper, pencils, pens, markers, computer disks, folders,journals, and
disposable cameras at a person student cost of$25 per participant.
Contractual Agreement: The agreement would be with the University of Nebraska at Omaha,
with prior approval from Greater Omaha Workforce Development, to facilitate the program's
outcome evaluation for the project. Conversations with Jerry Deichert, with UNO's Department
of Public Affairs Research indicate that they could design the evaluation tool and process, refine
the tool and conduct the assessment of the data as well as generate recommendations within the
proposed $7,000. The outcome evaluation will provide a comparison of what did happen as a
result of the youths' participation in the program with what would have happened had the youth
not participated in the program. The outcome evaluation will document the characteristics of the
youth who participate in the program and services. Participant descriptive information is needed
1
to assess whether or not our program seems to be more successful with some types of
participants rather than others. Information reading level of participation is needed to explore
whether a certain minimal level of program involvement seems indicated to achieve the intended
benefits of our program.
Other Costs—B Activity Fees: Each participant will receive a BGCO T-shirt, that must be
worn on all field trips and designated events within the building. The T-shirts cost $7.00 per
shirt X 100 shirts = $700.00. The T-shirts enable the BGCO participants to be easily identified.
Also included in this line item are incentives-symbolic rewards such as certificates, badges,
plaques, ribbons and other items that represent accomplishments. Cost of name badges $30.00
per pack of 50 X 3 = $90.00. Certificates of Achievement 25 per pack X 10 packs @ $5.10 per
pack= $51.00. Incentives include notebooks, pens, pencils, and paper.

GREATER OMAHA WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT
EQUAL OPPORTUNITY AND NONDISCRIMINATION
COMPLAINT PROCEDURE •
This procedure applies to any applicant, participant, youth, limited-English speaking
individual, contractor, subcontractor, employee, WIA staff, labor unions, community based
organizations, and other interested parties effected by the Greater Omaha Workforce
Development system, including One-Stop Partners and service providers, doing business with
Greater Omaha Workforce Development. These procedures include full compliance as set forth
in the WIA regulations and Civil Rights Act of 1964; these procedures insure that no portion of
any program will in any way discriminate against, deny benefits to, deny employment to or
exclude from participation any person on the grounds of race, color, national origin, sex, age,
disability, religion, political affiliation or belief, or participant status, and against certain
noncitizens. All interested parties identified in this document have the right to present
grievances/complaints arising from the provisions of the Workforce Investment Act of 1998;
Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, as amended; Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of
1973, as amended; the Age Discrimination Act of 1975, as amended; Title IX of the Education
Amendments of 1972, as amended; and 29 CFR Part 37.
Any person who believes that either he or she or any specific classification of individuals
has been or is being subjected to discrimination prohibited by the Workforce Investment Act, or
the regulations implementing the nondiscrimination provisions may file a written complaint,
either by himself or herself, or through a representative. The complaint may be filed with either
the Equal Opportunity Officer for the City of Omaha, the Human Relations Director, Reginald
Young, 502 Omaha/Douglas Civic Center, 1819 Farnam Street, Omaha, NE 68183, or to:
Director - Civil Rights Center, U.S. Department of Labor, Room N4123, 200 Constitution
Avenue,N.W., Washington, DC 20210.
If a complaint is filed with the Equal Opportunity Officer for the City of Omaha, the
complainant must wait until a written Notice of Action is received or until 90-days have passed,
whichever is sooner,before filing with the CRC.
The following procedure shall be used to insure that the complaint procedure information
referred to throughout this document is reasonably defined and provides a process for dealing
with complaints from all parties affected by the local Workforce Investment system.
1
v 7
Step 1
1. A complaint must be filed within 180-days of the alleged discrimination.
However, for good cause, the Civil Rights Center (CRC) Director may extend the filing time.
Each complaint must be filed in writing and must contain the following:
• The Complainant's name and address (or another means of contacting the
Complainant); and,
• The identity of the Respondent (the individual or entity that the Complainant
alleges is responsible for the discrimination); and,
• A description of the Complainant's allegations. This description must include
enough detail to allow the CRC Director or the recipient, as applicable, to decide
who has jurisdiction over the Complaint, whether the Complaint was filed on
time, and the merit of the Complaint, (whether the Complainant's allegations, if
true, would violate any of the nondiscrimination equal opportunity provisions of
WIA or the regulations); and,
• The Complainant's signature or the signature of the Complainant's authorized
representative. •
2. The recipient shall provide, through certified mail:
• An initial written notice to the Complainant that contains an acknowledgment that
the recipient has received the Complaint and Notice that the Complainant has the
right to be represented in the complaint process.
• A written statement of the issues, provided to the Complainant, that includes the
following information:
A list of the issues raised in the Complaint and for each such issue a statement,
whether the recipient will accept the issue for investigation or reject the issue and
the reasons for each rejection. If a recipient determines that it does not have
jurisdiction over a Complaint, it must notify the Complainant in writing
immediately. This Notice of Lack of Jurisdiction must include a statement of the
reasons for that determination and notice that the Complainant has a right to file a
Complaint with the CRC within 30-days of the date on which the Complainant
received the notice.
Step 2
There shall be a period for fact finding or investigation of the,circumstances underlying
the complaint. There may also be a period during which the recipient attempts to resolve the
Complaint. The methods available to resolve the Complaint include Alternative Dispute
2
Resolution (ADR). The ADR procedure provides that the choice whether to use ADR or the
customary process rest with the Complainant.
The procedures allow for a party to any agreement reached under ADR to file a
complaint with CRC Director in the event the agreement is breached. If that happens then the
nonbreaching party may file a complaint with the CRC Director within 30-days of the date in
which the nonbreaching party learns of the alleged breach and the CRC Director must evaluate
the circumstances to determine whether the agreement has been breached. If he or she
determines that the agreement has been breached, the Complainant may file a Complaint with the
Civil Rights Commission based upon his/her original allegations, and the CRC Director will
waive the time deadline for filing such a Complaint. If the parties do not reach an agreement
under alternative dispute resolution, the Complainant may file a Complaint with the CRC
Director.
Step 3
Within 90 days of the date on which the Complaint filed a written Notice of Final Action
must be provided to the Complainant. The Notice of Final Action must contain for each issue
raised, a statement of either the recipient's decision on the issue and an explanation of the
reasons underlying the decision, or description of the way the parties resolved the issue. In
addition, this notice must include notice that the Complainant has a right to file a Complaint with
the CRC within 30-days of the date on which the Notice of Final Action is received if he or she
is dissatisfied with the recipient's final action on the Complaint.
Data and Information Collection and Maintenance
Each recipient must collect and maintain records to determine whether the recipient has
complied or is complying with the nondiscrimination and equal opportunity provisions of the
WIA.
Records must be collected and maintained on applicants, registrants, eligible
applicants/registrants, participants, terminees, employees, and applicants for employment. Each .
recipient must record the race/ethnicity, sex, age, and where known, disability status of the
specified groups. These records must be maintained for a period of not less than three year from
the close of the applicable program year.
3
11. I;
The information must be stored in a manner that ensures confidentiality, and must be
used only for the purposes of recordkeeping and reporting, determining eligibility for WIA Title
I financially assisted programs/activities, or other uses authorized by law.
Each recipient must maintain, and submit upon request of the State EO Officer or the
Civil Rights Center, a log of complaints that allege discrimination. The log must include the
name and address of the complainant, the grounds for the complaint, a description of the
complaint. Records regarding complaints and actions taken on the complaints must be
maintained for a period of not less than three years from the date of resolution of the complaint.
