• Transportation - * Annual Community Meeting at Aposento Alto with representation from EBR Sheriff's Office, District Attorney's Office, Crime Stoppers, EBR School District. On the other hand, play, creative and physical activities stimulate brain connections and, hence, academic performance. We cannot measure these effects, but we know that providing safe and healthy experiences for children reduces the negative impact of living in a densely populated environment such as the Gardere community. Our middle and high school youths worked during our 8-week summer program and retaining their engagement assures continued leadership development and a commitment to community involvement. Also, the work teaches basic work skills that include punctuality, teamwork, respect for supervision, responsibility among others. Transportation is a major barrier for our youth to gain work experience other than the opportunities.
