Students will be given the <br />opportunity to take an Arts activity of their choice and any day of the week in the following disciplines: a) <br />Music, b) Art & Technology and c) Dance during after -school hours (M-F) and also on Saturdays! Our After - <br />School Arts program runs every day from 3:30 pm - 8:00 pm (M-F) and on Saturdays from 9:00 am - 4:00 pm. <br />In addition to the After School Arts Program, the youth will be provided with the opportunity to receive daily <br />tutoring in our Learning Academy Program, and receive academic support with any subject they are <br />struggling with academically, such as math, science, reading, etc. at school. Tutors will be available Monday <br />through Friday during the same after school hours of operation to help our youth on any given day of the <br />week. We also provide tutors at Willard Middle School for students that cannot come to OCCTAC. <br />Parents - In addition to the programs offered to the youth, the parents will also be invited to participate in <br />a weekly series of Parenting Classes focused on crime prevention, discipline strategies, communication skills, <br />family conflict, behavioral problems, family violence and others. This parenting program is designed to help <br />parents learn to recognize both prosocial and antisocial behaviors, employ social learning techniques (e.g., <br />positive reinforcement, ignoring, distraction, punishment),preventing delinquency and family violence. <br />Families experiencing crisis will also be offered Counseling. Both youth and parents will get the needed <br />counseling. <br />Youth - Students identified by Willard administrators as victims of violence and/or engaged in crime <br />activity, will be placed in our Therapeutic Arts, Family Counseling and Crises Intervention Program. These <br />students will be given the opportunity to participate in our therapeutic programs which focus on youth with <br />severe behavioral and emotional problems. These programs have a therapeutic emphasis that the After <br />School Arts programs do not have. However, youth can engage in both (After School Arts programs and <br />Therapeutic programs). The emphasis of the Therapeutic Arts program is on Healing. <br />Parents - In addition to the programs offered to youth, the parents will be invited to participate in both <br />Parenting Classes and Family Counseling. Families experiencing Crises Intervention and <br />emotional/behavioral problems, will be provided with weekly Counseling and therapeutic programs for both <br />youth and their parents. 2 Frequency of Service Delivery- The frequency of the service delivery will depend on the <br />specific component of the program and the nature of the problem.
