| FORM 990, PART III, LINE 1 | CADEKIDS TEACHES AND MENTORS PHILADELPHIA PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENTS TO RISE ABOVE DESPERATE CIRCUMSTANCES-VIOLENCE, POVERTY, AND APATHY-TO BUILD LIVES THAT MATCH THEIR DREAMS. FOUNDED IN 1987, CADEKIDS IS A PENNSYLVANIA-REGISTERED CHARITABLE ORGANIZATION THAT HELPS K-8TH GRADE PUBLIC SCHOOL STUDENTS MAKE GOOD DECISIONS BY TEACHING THEM HOW TO CONTROL THEIR IMPULSES AND AVOID VIOLENCE AND DRUG USE. IN 2014-15, WE SERVED NEARLY 10,200 STUDENTS IN 33 SCHOOLS: 8,000 IN OUR CORE PREVENTION PROGRAMS AND 2,200 THROUGH PROBLEM GAMBLING PREVENTION LESSONS. RACIALLY, OUR PARTICIPANTS ARE 57% BLACK, 29% WHITE, 4% ASIAN, AND 10% OTHER; ETHNICALLY, 31% ARE LATINO. CADEKIDS FOCUSES ON ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOLS LOCATED IN PHILADELPHIA'S MOST-STRESSED ZIP CODES, WHICH HAVE THE HIGHEST CONCENTRATION OF SHOOTINGS, DEATH WITH DRUGS PRESENT, AND PROPERTY CRIMES. OUR BEST-PRACTICE MODEL HELPS STUDENTS RECOGNIZE THEIR EMOTIONS TO AVOID SELF-DESTRUCTIVE CONFLICT. DEDICATED PREVENTION SPECIALISTS (PSS) MAINTAIN A YEAR-LONG PRESENCE IN THEIR SCHOOLS AND PROVIDE STUDENTS WITH LIFE SKILLS ESSENTIAL FOR ACADEMIC SUCCESS AND STAYING ON TRACK FOR HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATION. OUR PSS TEACH KIDS INFORMATION THAT REALLY "STICKS;" A LESSON TAUGHT TODAY STAYS WITH OUR KIDS ALL WEEK AND IS SUPPORTED BY THE TEACHERS, LONG TERM. PSS SPEND FIVE DAYS PER WEEK ONSITE AT THEIR DESIGNATED SCHOOLS USING PROVEN CURRICULA FEATURING SOCIAL DECISION-MAKING LESSONS, WHICH RESEARCH DEMONSTRATES IS INSTRUMENTAL IN DECREASING BULLYING AND INCREASING A SENSE OF SELF-CONTROL-KEY FACTORS IN POSITIVE SELF ESTEEM. MANY OF OUR PSS GREW UP IN THE SAME NEIGHBORHOODS AS THE KIDS THEY SERVE AND ARE ABLE TO BUILD A UNIQUE RAPPORT WITH THEM. AS A RESULT, PSS ARE WELL POSITIONED TO IDENTIFY AT-RISK STUDENTS, PROVIDE EARLY INTERVENTION, AND MAKE KEY REFERRALS WHEN NECESSARY. CADEKIDS HELPS CHANGE ATTITUDES BY TEACHING STUDENTS HOW TO THINK BEFORE THEY ACT. AS THEY PRACTICE USING SMART DECISIONS IN INTERACTIONS WITH OTHERS, THE SCHOOLS SEE RESULTS SUCH AS BETTER ATTENDANCE AND FEWER ANGRY OUTBURSTS, VIOLENT INCIDENTS, AND BULLYING. THIS IMPACT IS FELT FROM CLASSROOM TEACHERS TO PRINCIPALS AND ADMINISTRATORS. BY VALIDATING KIDS' VALUE TO THEIR COMMUNITIES AT SUCH PIVOTAL AGES, CADEKIDS NOT ONLY PREVENTS VIOLENCE, ADDICTION AND UNHEALTHY DECISIONS, IT CREATES A POSITIVE, ONGOING IMPACT; HENCE OUR NAME: CADEKIDS - "CHANGING ATTITUDES, DECISIONS, AND ENVIRONMENTS FOR KIDS." BY HELPING CHILDREN SEE THEIR OWN POTENTIAL FOR BECOMING GOOD PEOPLE AND CONTRIBUTING MEMBERS OF THEIR COMMUNITIES, CADEKIDS HELPS STEM SOME OF THE WORST AND MOST COSTLY TRENDS. - A COST-EFFECTIVE WAY TO IMPROVE CHILDREN'S RESILIENCE ($100 PER CLASSROOM STUDENT PER YEAR); OTHERWISE, WRAP-AROUND TREATMENT SERVICES FOR CHILDREN ARE PHILADELPHIA'S MOST EXPENSIVE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH EXPENSE. - $46,000 PER GUNSHOT TREATMENT (TU TRAUMA CENTER): EXCEEDS THE COST OF A CADEKIDS PREVENTION SPECIALIST IN A SCHOOL FOR A YEAR ($30,000, SALARY & BENEFITS), REACHING UP TO 1,000 STUDENTS EACH. - IF THE 30,000 STUDENTS WHO BEGAN NINTH GRADE BUT LEFT WITHOUT EARNING A HIGH SCHOOL DIPLOMA (2005 DATA) HAD STAYED IN SCHOOL, $275 MILLION OF LOST WAGES WOULD BE GAINED ANNUALLY, PLUS $88 MILLION IN TAX REVENUE. CADEKIDS HAS STATISTICALLY SIGNIFICANT EVIDENCE OF EFFECTIVENESS. IN AN AUGUST 2010 STUDY OF 6,200 PROGRAM PARTICIPANTS AND 7,900 CONTROL GROUP STUDENTS, WELL-KNOWN EDUCATION RESEARCHER KATHERINE MEYERS FOUND "REMARKABLE" FY09 RESULTS FOR CADEKIDS' STUDENTS, CONCENTRATED IN PHILADELPHIA'S LOWEST-PERFORMING PUBLIC SCHOOLS. MIDDLE (MS) AND ELEMENTARY SCHOOL (ES) STUDENTS WHO PARTICIPATED IN CADEKIDS- - WERE SIGNIFICANTLY MORE LIKELY TO HAVE FRIENDS WHO DID NOT USE DRUGS (MS, 72%; ES, 74%), ALCOHOL (MS, 68%; ES, 81%), OR CIGARETTES (MS, 70%; ES, 71%), AFTER PARTICIPATING. - SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCED APPROVAL OF HITTING BACK (MS, 59%; ES, 63%) PUSHING OTHERS AROUND (MS, 58%; ES, 32%), AND SAYING MEAN THINGS (MS, 59%; ES, 22%). PARTICIPANT SCHOOL ATTENDANCE RATES EXCEED THOSE OF THE CONTROL GROUP. ADDITIONALLY, GROUPS AT DISPROPORTIONATE RISK OF ACADEMIC FAILURE-SUCH AS AFRICAN-AMERICANS, LATINOS, ASIANS, AND THOSE WITH LIMITED ENGLISH PROFICIENCY- IMPROVED MATH SCORES AT A GREATER RATE THAN THOSE SIMILARLY LIMITED WHO DID NOT PARTICIPATE IN CADEKIDS, AND INCREASED THEIR READING ACHIEVEMENT SIGNIFICANTLY MORE IF THEY PARTICIPATED. PARTICIPANTS GAVE OUR PROGRAM HIGH MARKS (AVERAGE, 82%), WOULD RECOMMEND CADEKIDS TO OTHER STUDENTS, AND FEEL THAT CADEKIDS TAUGHT THEM HOW TO AVOID FIGHTING AND VIOLENCE ABOUT SETTING GOALS FOR THE FUTURE. IN 2014-15, AN IMPRESSIVE 98% OF TEACHERS AND SCHOOL OFFICIALS HIGHLY RATED CADEKIDS' CLASSROOM EFFECTIVENESS AS EXCELLENT (75%) OR GOOD (23%). |
