Project Description: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
||
Project system integrates the three-quarter century combined organizational experience of South Florida's three largest non-profit educational services organizations; SER-IBM Business Institute, Youth Co-Op, and SABER. This combination provides a full SYSTEM of services to at-risk and out-of-school youth. These organizations have previously operated a similar program sponsored, in part, by the Florida Department of Education and have exceeded all program goals and measures established by Department of Education. |

Services Provided/Benefit to State: |
|

|
|
|
||||
Education, training, counseling, and employment for at-risk and out-of-school youth. State funds will be matched on a one-to-one by sources which include JTPA, the local school district, and the private sector. The three organizations sponsoring Project SYSTEM have documented success in reducing dropouts, preventing delinquency, and increasing the number of former students who are recovered. The State's investment in Project system will save an average of $7,887 per dropout. |
