It was inhabited ► .eople who worked on the railroad and other early indistfiarand commercial ventures, and . a thriving center of commerce and culture for the Black community, particularly for music and en ' . inment in the 1940s and 1950s. Over the decades, the area declined economically due to mi on of middle-class Blacks and the construction of I-95 and I-395 that bisected the community recent years there have been efforts to preserve the historical churches and the Lyric Theatre a ' • revitalize the entire Overtown area. The City of Miami and Southeast Overtown Park Wes s mmunity Redevelopment Agency in their infinite wisdoms has not forgotten the promises that re made to the people of the Overtown community to restore the neighborhood. The SEOPW CRA recognizes that structural re ' . ization of a community with new buildings, infrastructure and state of the arts facilities w dut economic revitalization of the existing businesses and employment opportunities for the resid; , recognizes that it would be inconsistent with its goals to foster progress and growth that reflect e vision and priority of the community. The Overtown community has transfor - d over the past decade, it has become one of the fastest growing and most desired place to li work and play in South Florida, which makes Overtown a point of destination for many.

"PROBLEM" Overtown is faced with a u ' - situation when it comes to employment, not only are the residents faced with high unemploy ► t and underemployment. Overtown has a recidivism problem, when we hear the word RECID we often think about the revolving doors of crime in our community, whereby men, women children are caught up in the cycle of the criminal justice system. They commit crimes, go t► . it and serve time in jail, get out of jail and sadly, but often find themselves committing anoth: rime and falling back into the cycle of RECIDIVISM. Well just like t ECIDIVISM of CRIME, the Overtown Community is faced with the RECIDIVIS ► f UNEMPLOYMENT AND UNDEREMPLOYMENT, There is a vicious cycle that Overtown r: . ents face, many residents are employed or underemployed and all of sudden they just quit the j . •r maybe even get terminated or just laid off. 1490 NW 3 RDAvenue, Suite 106 Miami, Florida 33136 Phone: (855) 298-7462 Fax: (888) 689-4811 Email: cwtp@cwtpinc.com Website: www.communityworkprogram.com SUBSTITUTED "PROBLEM Continue" There are many reasoning behind these dilemmas, the Community Training Program has identified these causes and the residents that face these problems to undergo an intense and highly structured employment mentoring program.
