The Optimist Club provides a year-round program which aligns with the Miami -Dade County Public School (MDCPS) calendar, beginning in August on the first day of school, and ending the last day of school. During the school season, the Optimist Club runs a 5-day spring break camp, 10- hours per day. Following the school season, the Optimist Club runs a 9-week summer camp, for 10-hours per day.

RE: Playing to Our Strengths DATE: December 16, 2021 ORGANIZATION HISTORY Established in 1993, as a volunteer -based community safe haven for children during the critical out of school hours. The Overtown Optimist Club has had a long-term collaborative partnership with the City of Miami, as its exclusive community provider at the Theodore Gibson Park (located within the heart of Overtown, Miami). In its 28-year history, The Optimist Club has successfully pivoted its hallmark, sports enthusiast programming, to include academic advisement, ensuring students are on track for on -time grade promotion, high school graduation, while preparing them to successfully navigate their post- secondary life experiences. Utilizing our strength -based case management model to heal and empower youth to becoming leaders through academics and athletics and their unique gifts and talents. Students join the Overtown Optimist Club, as early as four years of age, and continue through high school graduation and beyond. MISSION The Optimist Club of Overtown has a vision of increasing student and family access to affordable, high quality youth development programming, utilizing a strength -based case management model to build character, social emotional development, self-determination, and leadership abilities. The Optimist Club of Overtown cultivates student leaders by empowering them in the areas of art, academics and athletics. OVERTOWN OPTIMIST CLUB, INC. 350 NW 12th Street Miami, FL 33136 P.O.

Our philosophy believes that children of all abilities have a right to equal access to and meaningful participation in education, enrichment, character education, and social emotional development. IMPLEMENTATION APPROACH Our approach to implementing this differentiated model, includes four distinct learning styles, which include auditory, kinesthetic, reading (writing) and visual. Similar to student athlete training, kinesthetic learners perform greatest when participating and solving problems in a hands-on manner. The use of play is a great motivator for students to participate and to remain engaged with an assignment. The Journal of Science and Medicine in Sport found that first grade students experiencing sedentary time and no running around also had a negative impact on their reading skills and their ability to do math.

Packet Pg. 22 "We Put The Community To Work" 2021-2022 OVERTOWN EMPLOYMENT ASSISTANCE CENTER "History" c U 0 0 0 a 4- CD E 0 0. E w Overtown is one of the oldest neighborhoods in the City of Miami. initially designated as a community o for Blacks when Miami was incorporated in 1896. It was inhabited by people who worked on the railroad and other early industrial and commercial ventures, and was a thriving center of commerce and o culture for the Black community, particularly for music and entertainment in the 1940s and 1950s. Over the decades, the area declined economically due to migration of middle-class Blacks and the 6- construction of I-95 and I-395 that bisected the community. In recent years there have been efforts to 0 preserve the historical churches and the Lyric Theatre and to revitalize the entire Overtown area. The City of Miami and Southeast Overtown Park West Community Redevelopment Agency in their ti infinite wisdoms has not forgotten the promises that were made to the people of the Overtown community to restore the neighborhood. N The SEOPW CRA recognizes that structural revitalization of a community with new buildings, 0 infrastructure and state of the arts facilities without economic revitalization of the existing businesses and employment opportunities for the residents, recognizes that it would be inconsistent with its goals g to foster progress and growth that reflects the vision and priority of the community. The Overtown community has transformed over the past decade, it has become one of the fastest growing and most desired place to live, work and play in South Florida, which makes Overtown a point of destination for many. On June of 2015, the City Council of the City of Miami Gardens, Florida issued an ordinance; ordinance number 2015-06-341. This ordinance is known as the City of Miami Gardens Business and s- Resident Economic Plan or CMG-BREP. This economic plan is designed to ensure that the residents 6 and the businesses of Miami Gardens not only see and enjoy the structural revitalization of the m community, but this ordinance guarantees that they will take part in the economic revitalization and be M assured that the dollars that the City of Miami Gardens gets from its residents and the dollars that they get on behalf of its residents, will now find its way back into the homes of the residents they serve. The City of Miami Gardens Community Development Department has a motto that says, "Connecting the pieces for a stronger community." This motto echoes the SEOPW CRA written policie that will connect the Overtown community to its resources and make it stronger. s Pg2 a Packet Pg. 23 yslo1% 0rainin9 it:, 7e:' CWTP "HISTORY Continue" The City of Miami Department of Community & Economic Development mission statement is to assis in creating a viable urban community for the neediest people in our City while reducing poverty, embracing diversity, assisting with economic development, and improving the overall quality of life. In November 2004 the SEOPW CRA conducted the Dover Kohl study that outlined 14 guiding principles aimed to facilitate the redevelopment of the Overtown community. In 2009 the City of Miami Planning Department updated the plan to further focus and defined the guiding principles to structurally and economically revitalize the Overtown Community. Within the plan, principle number 4 of 14 states "There must be variety in employment opportunities" and an EMPLOYMENT CENTER should be located within the neighborhoods to accommodate thoE who wish to live in proximity to their work and reduce dependence on the automobile and long commutes. In conclusion the general consensus in the community was that employment opportunities should be a high priority and made available to the existing residents of the Overtown Community. "We Put The Community To Work" "PROBLEM" Overtown is faced with a unique situation when it comes to employment, not only are the residents faced with high unemployment and underemployment. Overtown has a recidivism problem, when we hear the word RECIDIVISM we often think about the revolving doors of crime in our community, whereby men, women and children are caught up in the cycle of the criminal justice system. They commit crimes, go to jail and serve time in jail, get out of jail and sadly, but often find themselves committing another crime and falling back into the cycle of RECIDIVISM. Well just like the RECIDIVISM of CRIME, the Overtown Community is faced with the RECIDIVISM of UNEMPLOYMENT AND UNDEREMPLOYMENT, There is a vicious cycle th Overtown residents face, many residents are employed or underemployed and all of sudden they just quit the job or maybe even get terminated or just laid off. 1490 NW 3 °Avenue, Suite 106 Miami, Florida 33136 Phone: (855) 298-7462 Fax: (888) 689-4811 Email: cwtp@cwtpinc.com Website: www.communityworkprogram.com Packet Pg. 24 ‘140 1 raining Pr "We Put The Community To Work" "PROBLEM Continue" There are many reasoning behind these dilemmas, the Community Work Training Program has identified these causes and the residents that face these problems need to undergo an intense and highly structured employment mentoring program.

Enclosures: File #11332 -BACKUP BACKGROUND: The attached Resolution of the Board of Commissioners of the Southeast Overtown/Park West Community Redevelopment Agency ("SEOPW CRA") authorizes a grant in an amount not to exceed $300,000.00 to Mt. Zion Developments, Inc. ("Owner"), located at 301 N.W. 9th Street, Miami, Florida (the "Property"), for its 40-year certification and roof replacement, (the "Project"). Mount Zion Baptist Church was built between 1928 - 1941 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. The Property is of architectural significance to Overtown because of its unique Mediterranean Revival style. The Property needs its 40-year recertification and a full roof replacement, and the Owner has requested assistance from the SEOPW CRA in order to bring the Property into minimum code compliance. This Board authorized a grant to Owner for $280,000.00 in 2015 under CRA-R-15-0041, to complete its 40-year certification. Owner engaged a contractor who completed $149,853.00 of the work prior to becoming unresponsive, leaving a remaining balance of $130,147.00 unspent. Since the contractor's abandonment, the Property's condition has deteriorated due to deferred maintenance and has received notices of code violations. To cure this problem, the Property now needs a full roof replacement in addition to completing the 40-year recertification. Furthermore, since the Property is on the National Register of Historic Places, all improvements must comply with their requirements. Owner needs $300,000.00 in addition to the unspent $130,147.00 to properly address all outstanding issues. It is the recommendation of the SEOPW CRA that the Board of Commissioners authorize the issuance of this grant to Mt. Zion Developments, Inc. for a full roof replacement and to complete its 40-year recertification.
