Describe the Organization's Program Activity:
Part 3 - Line 4a
I KNOW ME RESUMED REGULAR FIELD BASED PROGRAMMING IN THE SUMMER OF 2021. STAFF REALIZED THAT DURING THE 14 MONTHS OF SEPARATION CAUSED BY THE COVID PANDEMIC, YOUTH HAD SUFFERED. WE WERE DEALING WITH A PERVASIVE MENTAL HEALTH CRISIS AMONG OUR YOUTH AND WE WERE ON THE FRONT LINES. OUR RESPONSE WAS TO FOCUS ON NORMAL ACTIVITIES FOR AS MANY YOUTH AS WE COULD REACH. THIS HELPED US CONNECT WITH 80% OF ENROLLEES. IT WAS A GREAT MOMENT WHEN WE BROUGHT TWO COHORTS TO SEBAGO LAKE STATE PARK IN SEPTEMBER FOR THE HIGH SCHOOL RETREAT (ONE COHORT JUST GOING INTO HIGH SCHOOL AND ONE NOW IN THE 10TH GRADE). THE SUCCESS OF THE I KNOW ME PROGRAM WAS NOTICED AND WE WERE INVITED TO START A SIMILAR PROGRAM IN A NEIGHBORING SCHOOL DISTRICT.
THE GAME LOFT REOPENED FOR IN PERSON PROGRAMMING IN JULY 2021 WHILE CONTINUING ITS ONLINE DISCORD SERVERS. APPROPRIATE COVID SAFETY PROTOCOLS KEPT THE PROGRAM OPEN THROUGHOUT THE REST OF THE YEAR WITHOUT ANY OUTBREAKS OR STAFF ILLNESS. STAFF FOCUSED ON RESTORING NORMAL DAY-TO-DAY ACTIVITIES, HEALTHY NUTRITIOUS MEALS AND ADDED MANY SUMMER DAY TRIPS, LIKE A DAY AT THE BEACH. ATTENDANCE AND ENROLLED YOUTH WERE SIGNIFICANTLY DOWN FROM BEFORE COVID. GRADUALLY, OVER TIME, NEW MEMBERS ENROLLED, (IT IS FREE) AND OLD ONES RETURNED. IN THE SPRING OF 2022 WE RESUMED OUR WEEKLY AFTER SCHOOL PROGRAM AT MOUNT VIEW MIDDLE SCHOOL. BY THE END OF THE SCHOOL YEAR 2021-22, ALL LOFT PROGRAMS GREW TO 60% OF PRE-COVID FIGURES.
OUR AMERICORPS CONTRACT EXPANDED TO THREE MEMBERS AND AN ADDITIONAL SUMMER MEMBER. MEMBERS WERE FULLY ENGAGED IN THE I KNOW ME PROGRAM, PLANNING AND LEADING FIELD TRIPS ALL ACROSS MAINE, REORGANIZING OUR INVENTORY AND PROVIDING DIRECT MENTORING SERVICES TO YOUTH. MEMBERS LED THE CARE BAG RELIEF PROGRAM AND EMERGENCY COVID MEALS PROGRAM. MEMBERS MADE A DIFFERENCE IN THE COMMUNITY AND THE LIVES OF THE KIDS.
