<br />Describe the basic program approach (workshop/classroom/in the community). <br />The basic program approach for Project RYTMO includes 8-weeks of introductory, <br />intermediate, and advanced classroom training in a state of the art recording facility <br />located in Anaheim (Love & Laughter Recording Studios). The approach is "hands-on" <br />and is completed in a workshop setting using the studio facility. As the training <br />progresses, some Saturday labs may be necessary. Saturday training is used for <br />application of music technology software programs, digital recording techniques, and <br />group projects. Participants are assigned a variety of creative tasks and deadlines to <br />complete both individual and group projects. <br /> <br />Participants are challenged with advanced skills occupational training, leadership <br />development opportunities, and peer volunteer work experience in the program. <br />Incentives include free studio recording hours, access to music industry work experience <br />opportunities and internships, and exposure to entrepreneurships that can lead to paid <br />working opportunities in their respective fields of training and interests. <br /> <br />Since the program design is based on musical and artistic expression, participants are <br />encouraged to become involved in a number of community-based activities including <br />work experience at RYTMO Satellite music technology classes, community concerts <br />and performances within Orange County, recruitment presentations to youth at local <br />high schools, community sponsored events, etc. <br /> <br />Describe how you will conduct outreach and recruitment. Include how <br />enrollment goals will be met by the second quarter of the contract. <br />Outreach and recruitment is a vital part of maintaining enrollment of new participants in <br />the program. Project RYTMO will become actively involved by: <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Establishing communication leading to partnerships and/or co-enrollments with local <br />youth agencies and other Youth Council Providers for qualified youth who are <br />residents of Santa Ana. Such efforts will be made primarily during the months of <br />July through December. 2007. This will ensure that enrollment goals are met by the <br />second quarter of the contract. <br /> <br />. <br /> <br />Maintain consistent communication with youth agencies and programs that service <br />Santa Ana youth regarding enrollment deadlines. These include monthly and <br />quarterly emails, flyers and notifications sent out to agencies such as Probation, <br />Dept of Recreation, Middle Schools, High Schools, eontinuation Schools, Colleges, <br />Youth Council agencies, etc. <br />
