A Â message Â
from  Our  CEO
*VTT\UP[` PU]LZ[Z PU `V\[OÂťZ M\[\YL The work we do can have a tremendous effect on youth in Middle Tennessee, but that work falls short without the help of the community. Individuals and businesses volunteer countless hours to help us and youth in our programs, and the benefits go far beyond simple help â&#x20AC;&#x201D; not only are young people in our programs shown real-life skills and prepared for the future, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re shown that a community is invested in their success. Our transitional living program is an effective way to help young people aging out of foster care by teaching them independent living skills â&#x20AC;&#x201D; things many take for granted â&#x20AC;&#x201D; like budgeting money, finding a place to live, getting insurance and health care, filling out college applications or finding a job.

Attending college is a lifechanging event, and Next Step eases the transition from foster care to more independent college life. MTSU, in conjunction with the Tennessee Department of Children’s Services and the Tennessee Youth Advisory Council, created the program where student mentors assist incoming students with admissions, financial aid, housing, academic advising and student support. These mentors are part of the Next Step program and come from foster care or similar situations. Many of the youth participating in the tour plan to attend MTSU, and were able to meet with school officials to learn more about class scheduling, admissions and housing. “This complements what the TL program is doing with our young adults,” said Joanna Dixon, Youth Villages Middle Tennessee education/vocation coordinator. “This is a great service for our youth. Entering college is a great time, but it’s also intimidating. “It’s critical for our young adults to have that extension of support when they need it.” Youth Villages has 150 youth in the TL program in Middle Tennessee. Of that, 59 are employed and 40 are in college or pursuing post-secondary eduation. 4
Youth in the transitional living program recently toured Middle Tennessee State University and learned about the school’s Next Step Program, which supports entering students who were in foster care.

The dedicated group from Dell grilled turkey burgers and shishkababs, and provided fruit and corn on the cob for the Wallace girls and staff. “It was great to be able to do something delicious and nutritious for the Wallace Home before they have to focus on going back to school,” Tarsha Clemmons, Dell team leader, said. In addition to the cookout, the Dell volunteers sponsored the girls for their school uniforms. The entire staff at the Wallace Group Home and Youth Villages would like to thank the Dell volunteers for their continued support for Youth Villages’ group homes.

Panera donates, volunteers A team of Panera employees representing different Panera stores in the Nashville area recently volunteered as Backpack Heroes to organize school supplies and fill 321 backpacks for Youth Villages’ children in kindergarten, elementary, middle and high school. In addition to volunteering, Panera organized a Frozen Lemonade promotion to raise money used to purchase some of the school supplies. “We were thrilled to have the opportunity to be a part of Backpack Heroes,” said Courtney Ricchio, local marketing manager at Panera Bread Company. “It was truly amazing to see the amount of backpacks and school supplies we helped provide for the kids in our communities.
