Eisenhower Foundation will replicate the following model programs: 1) Youth Safe Haven Police Mini-stations, linking local officers with trained mentors who work intensively with at risk youth, aged 6-12, providing after school programs; 2) Quantum Opportunities Program, a computer based remedial education and mentoring program for older at-risk high school students; 3) Delancey Street educational and rehabilitative program for adult ex-offenders and substance abusers, teaching a multitude of academic and living skills to individuals; 4) A capacity building initiative for nonprofit organizations engaged in the above kinds of programs and related programs designed to reduce crime, reduce drugs, reduce fear, develop youth, improve education performance and provide training.
