Esplago Marivic Mahinay March 2016 CHAPTER 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND This chapter aims to know the different factors that affects the out-of-school youth in Barangay Mulawin of San Jose Del Monte City, Bulacan. Introduction Researchers focused much of their attention in studying the Factors Affecting the Out of School Youth in Barangay Mulawin of San Jose Del Monte City, Bulacan during the School Year 2014-2015, to determine the different factors that affects in every youth in studying. According to Rizal (1861-1896) that “The youth is the hope of the Fatherland” Rizal (1861-1896). This statement of Rizal says that the youth are the future leaders, workers and citizens of their nations. Yet in many Barangay in San Jose Del Monte City, Bulacan, out of school youth is a vulnerable population with complex needs.

...like war and natural disaster struck Zamboanga City, it is just timely to assess similar situation especially on a depressed placed like Barangay Sta. Catalina which was directly affected by the 2013 Zamboanga Siege. According to Villanueva (2006), juvenile delinquency refers to an anti-social act or a child/minor/youth’s behavior which deviates from the normal pattern of rules and regulations, custom and culture which the society does not accept. Bocar (2012) mentioned that the prevention of juvenile delinquency is an essential part of crime prevention in society. Guevara and Bautista (2008) quoted that, “an ounce of prevention is better than a pound of cure”, this clearly manifests the importance of misbehavior deterrence among the youth. Theoretical Framework Numerous theories tried to explain many factors causing juvenile crimes or juvenile delinquency. One of which is Robert Merton’s Strain Theory. Strain theory holds that crime is caused by the difficulty those in poverty have in achieving socially valued goals by legitimate means, making poverty the reason to commit crime. Another theory that juveniles turn to crime is the differential theory. The theory of Differential association also deals with young people in a group context, and looks at how peer...

...different types of discrimination that LGBT youths are faced with and the effects on these youths. The paper will elaborate on the severe impacts on LGBT youths not only caused by discrimination but also due to lack of support and guidance. The paper will also discuss the roles of the parents and schools in helping minimize discrimination against LGBT youths. This paper will also hopefully instruct schools and parents to accept and support gay students rather than add to the discrimination that they already face. Doing so will reduce the high school drop out rate and most importantly the youth suicide rate. In essence, the purpose of this research paper is to identify the different effects on LGBT youths due to discrimination and to explore various actions that can and should be taken by schools and parents to help these youths live a normal and happy life. Therefore, my target audience is the school system as well as the parents of LGBT youths. Suicide is the leading cause of death among gay and lesbian youths. Gay and lesbian youths are 2 to 6 times more likely to attempt suicide than heterosexual youth. Over 30% of all reported teen suicides each year are committed by gay and lesbian youths. . . . Gays and lesbians are at much higher risk than the heterosexual population for alcohol and drug abuse. Approximately 30% of both the lesbian and gay male populations have problems with alcohol. Gay and lesbian youth are at greater risk for school failure than heterosexual children. (U...

...Youth At-Risk: Preventing Student Dropouts and Facilitating Reintegration A State of Israel Experience Full Paper Melfi M. Caranto. Technological Institute of the Philippines, Manila Overview of Israel’s Educational System The wellbeing of the youth is being taken as a serious national issue in Israel and they have done concrete actions about it. First of all, Israel has a very good educational structure and system. Education is free and compulsory from 1st to 12th grade. There is no private school in Israel because almost all of the school is supported by the state. It is very interesting to note that there is no student who repeats a term because of difficulty coping with lessons. They have a good team who are composed of a school counsellor, a home room teacher and a subject teacher who ensures that a student is getting the attention and the help that he/she needs to finish the term or the school grade where they belong. The Baggrut or the Matriculation examination is a very systematic way of assessing a student’s readiness to land on a decent job or go to college after serving the army. It is a must for all students to enter the Israeli Defense Force (IDF). After finishing the 12th grade (senior high school) boys have to serve in the army for three years while the girls should serve for two years.

...Homeless Youth General Education Capstone October 14, 2013 Homeless Youth Homelessness affects many youth today; 46% runaway because they express their gender identity, and or sexual identity because their family rejects them, 43% are kicked out by parents also known as thrown away. Youth also take more things literally then adults, so they feel misunderstood especially when they are opening up about their sexual lifestyle. Homelessness in youth is worldwide and needs a world wide solution. Just to name a few countries that have issues with youth and homelessness; Russia’s homeless population has decreased some since the 1990’s but according to Anna Rudnicki the totals are still around 3,000 – 10,000 homeless street kids. (2013). In Australia the homeless youth rate is “estimates that 50,000 Australians under the age of 24 years are homeless with numbers increasing” With numbers increasing Australia needs to find a situation that will help lower their numbers and help get these teens off the street, Since health issues can become an issue. Another area with a heavy population of homeless youth is in Canada. Every day in Canada you can find homeless kids. “Canada, on any given day it is estimated that there are 150,000 homeless youths on the streets” (Rogers, 2012). Rogers’s states that this is an estimate since most homeless youth do tend to avoid shelters. With every country and every town we can find a teen that is homeless, while being homeless the can become sick, and...

...The term “Youth Gang” has evolved to become a common term in the generation we live in. It is a term that is covered in most media outlets on an almost daily basis. In order to fully understand the weight of the influence of youth gangs in our communities, we must make an attempt to look at how various scholars define it. There seems to be no clear-cut definition for the term “youth gang” because different communities have their own perception on what they refer to as a “youth gang”. Various researchers agree that defining, recognizing and identifying youth gangs is perplexed by inappropriate labelling of youth social groups by outsiders (Mathews, 1993; Gordon, 2000; Church Council on Justice and Corrections, 1995). There is also insufficient...

...Aquino’s Final SONA | Education, employment turn worse – youth groups “The onslaught of commercialization and education deregulation under the Aquino administration has driven not one, but many students to desperation and even death. This is Aquino’s real legacy to the Filipino youth.” By ANNE MARXZE D. UMIL MANILA – Expensive cost of education, unemployment and more out of school youth. This is what the youth has endured under President Benigno S. Aquino III, said progressive youth groups. “Education, employment, standard of living – all of these aspects took a turn for the worse under Aquino’s five-year rule,” said Kabataan Partylist Rep. Terry Ridon. He said tuition rates and youth unemployment are at their highest, the gap between the rich and the poor continues to widen, while wages remain stagnant if not decreasing. “These are the facts that Aquino will undoubtedly omit in his last State of the Nation Address (SONA) on Monday.” Commercialization of education “Education is a public good, but ironically under this regime, it has become a private good because of the commercialization schemes and policies of Aquino, such as tuition and school fees deregulation, and the Roadmap to Public Higher Education Reforms (RPHER)”said Sarah Elago, National Union of Students in the Philippines (NUSP) president. Data from the Kabataan Partylist showed that in Aquino’s five years in office, tuition increased by an average of 108 percent at the national level, from P257 ($5...

...At-Risk Youth for the Future A large fraction of American youth perform poorly in high school, and many of these youth fail to obtain a high school degree. The costs of failure in high school are growing, both for the individual student and for society overall. Mathematica researchers have conducted many of the most important studies of at-risk youth and interventions designed to address their educational needs. Synthesizing Lessons from Dropout Prevention Programs We have studied a diverse array of dropout prevention approaches, ranging from small programs in a single school to those designed to address the dropout problem in clusters of schools or entire school districts. Mathematica's staff are also principal investigators for the What Works Clearinghouse comprehensive review of evaluations of dropout prevention programs. Our staff are assessing the strength of the evidence on the effectiveness of dropout prevention initiatives and synthesizing the lessons from these studies for policymakers and educators. Re-Engaging Out-of-School Youth Youth who drop out of high school represent a loss of human potential. For the Office of Vocational and Adult Education within the U.S. Department of Education, Mathematica conducted case studies of six dropout recovery programs that help youth ages 16 to 21 return to school, earn a high school credential (either a diploma or GED), and prepare for further education and jobs. Drawing on site visit interviews and an analysis of school records...

...Azalea Youth Outreach and Referral Program Latonya Nichols/Dr. Adadevoh Business & Society 5/1/2013 About our outreach program The Azalea Youth Outreach and Referral Program’s goal is to empower our youth and focus on pro-active coaching and early intervention to address the youth and family issues through skill building, education, and advocacy. We reach out through the community, schools, churches, civic groups, social groups, and nonprofit organizations. The program promote efforts by its grantees to build relationships between our youth and outreach workers, their local communities, local schools, and social setting with homeless, troubled, low income youth. Grantees also provide support services that aim to coach youth into stable housing, daily living skills to prepare them for independence. It requires grantees to incorporate elements of the Positive Youth Development approach into their programs. PYD suggests that the best way to prevent risky behavior is to help young people achieve their full potential. Youth development strategies focus on giving young people the chance to exercise leadership, build skills and become actively involved in their communities.

Programs designed to keep children and youth off the streets, such as foster care, health centers, and other youth-serving institutions, are often ill-prepared or unsafe for gay and transgender youth due to institutional prejudice, lack of provider and foster-parent training, and discrimination against gay and transgender youth by adults and peers.As a result, many youth run away from these placements, actions that could also land them in the custody of the juvenile justice system....

...regarding the term at risk youth, it has been shown that the term does not have a clear, consistent, and agreed-upon definition. The term is most often accepted as an individual’s susceptibility of dropping out of the education system, but it extends further. It extends to specific life circumstances and experiences that hinder healthy development and increase the likelihood that youth will “underachieve in school despite adequate intellectual endowment and, as a result, will underachieve as [an adult]” (Comer, 1987). Factors that increase risk in children include certain behaviors, environments, and developmental patterns such as: compromised mental health, school struggle and failure, alcohol and drug consumption, law-breaking/deviancy, poverty, sexual activity, minority status, dysfunctional family dynamics, absenteeism/truancy, and under resourced schools (Capuzzi & Gross, 2006; Milkman et al., 1996; Stepney, 2001). A better definition of at risk youth is youth who are failed by one or more adults of an...

...Achievement of children and youth in foster care Joanna Bermudez Mercy College Summer 2013 Introduction and Problem Statement Approximately fifty percent of adolescents in this country’s foster care system are graduating from high school each year. In NYS, less than forty-four percent of adolescent’s in the foster care system graduate from high school yearly. The outcomes of youth who leave the foster care system between the ages of 18 and 21 are statistically grim; less than 50% of these youth are equipped with a high school diploma (Scannapeieco, Connel-Carrick, and Pinter, 2007), and with-in two years of leaving the system, 25% of them face unemployment, homelessness, and/or incarceration (Krinsky, 2007). For all children, especially children in foster care, having the proper advocacy, stability, educational coordination and guidance are vital in ensuring their academic success. Unfortunately, children in foster care are less likely to receive these components to assist them in becoming successful in academia, which in turn affects their chances to live a productive adult life. The needs of the children and youth in foster care are in need of reformation across each state throughout the nation. Since the development of foster care, the focus of intervention has and continues to be a reactive approach, instead of a tactical approach. The intervention of foster care seeks to ensure the physical safety and well-being of each child and youth, which oftentimes leads to...

...Preventing and Intervention for School Violence Project Summary Research evidence indicates that school violence has increased over the past years. The Federal Government has made a committed to ensure school safety and reduce school violence. The “Let my Child Live Foundation” grant application report that I have created will seek to develop reality based intelligence and find out what works to promote safety and healthy environments in the school. We hope to collaborate with juvenile law enforcement personnel, psychiatrist, psychologists and the entire school system to achieve the needed grants and funding. There are many things that we hope to accomplish. If grants are given to this program we will strive to reach our number one goal which is to create a safe school environment, mandatory prevention strategies that every school is mandated to use. There will be student behavioral, emotional and social support given throughout the entire school year. We also hope to achieve substance abuse prevention, on campus mental health services and annual mental health screenings. The schools will also have social and emotional learning programs available to each child early on. School violence has penetrated our nation for quite some time now. School violence is on the rise, and society is wondering why. Violence has injured and killed our youth. The question we must ask is “why are our youth so angry”? The program will work toward providing school and communities in the Chicago...
