CITY OF SANA ANA COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT Scope of Work Annual Accomplishment Goal Total number of clients anticipated to be served during the 12 -month contract period= 30 PERSONS II. Total number of unduplicated Santa Ana residents to be served with grant funds during the 12 -month contract period =_20 PERSONS 67% Santa Ana Clients III. Description of Work - in space below, describe the program to be funded during the 12 - month contract period including, services to be provided, program goals, client characteristics, & how grant funds will be utilized. The Centro presently provides Santa Ana unique music programs. The requested funds will assure that these programs continue. The music program presently consists of three separate music classes based on son jarocho, traditional dance music from Veracruz. It employs guitar -like instruments called jaranas" (small 8 -string guitar) and percussive instruments such as "el cajon" which is a wooden box played like a drum, a "maribol" (mix between a cajon and forger piano), "requintos" small 5 -string guitars, and dancers who provide percussion with their foot work. The students not only receive instruction but also perform under a group known as "Son del Centro". This year we plan to re -activate our wind instrument program teaching students how to play instruments such as the saxophone, clarinet, trumpet, baritone and trombone. The students are taught how to read music and experience what it is to perform. The primary goal of these programs is to continue to serve the needs of low income, at risk families, especially adolescents who have limited access to music and artistic programs. It is well known that teenagers without extra curricular activities are at a higher risk of becoming involved in undesirable behavior (gangs, drugs, etc.) particularly in the afternoon hours after school. Goal: to provide after school music education to Santa Ana disadvantaged youth and families. Objective: to enroll as many students as possible (no less than 30) who will learn how to read music and play an instrument and will also be giving back to the community by performing in musical groups. Instruction will fuse music and dance into a learning format that explores interactive artistic mediums as a tool for self -empowerment and social change. The grant funds will be utilized for rent, music instructors, music instruments, and an assistant to the executive director who is coordinating the program.
