(100 words or less) <br /> STRIVE is Boomerang's alternative to suspension program designed to keep middle and <br /> high school students from further school disengagement by helping them understand the <br /> issues behind their suspension, providing social-emotional learning and goal-setting for <br /> successful school re-entry. Working closely with school and family, Boomerang bridges <br /> students back to school and provides in-school follow-up to high school students on a <br /> weekly basis during the school year. <br /> The program is part of a community network of human services that protects and promotes <br /> the well-being of youth, champions education at all levels (BOCC Goals and Priorities), and <br /> helps children improve their education outcomes (Strategic Objective 1). <br /> 7.Target Population: Please complete the table below with numbers (not percentages) of individuals served <br /> and projected to be served. <br /> Program Target Population Demographics <br /> Projected Actual Projected Projected <br /> 2018-19 2018-19 2019-20 2020-21 <br /> Gender <br /> Men 100 95 100 100 <br /> Women 50 48 50 50 <br /> Nonbinary/Genderqueer 0 0 0 0 <br /> Self-Describe 0 0 0 0 <br /> Total 150 143 150 150 <br /> Race and Ethnicity <br /> Black or African-American 65 50 65 65 <br /> American Indian or Alaska Native 0 0 0 0 <br /> Asian 0 2 0 0 <br /> White 75 67 75 75 <br /> Cover Page P a g e 6 o , <br />
