The Landscape

Vulnerable Youth – A Generation At Risk

The future legacy of our nation is currently “at risk”. Here are some statistics:

The high school dropout rate of the top 50 cities in our nation is at 51.2%!

The average high school graduate student today, without any further training or education, will experience a 42% employment rate over the age of 25! That’s 58% unemployment experience over the course of their lives.

Behavior lost time in schools today accounts for over 70% of the suspension occurrences. Ignoring school policy rules is the top contributor!

In Connecticut alone, the lost time in 2005 was equivalent to 2080 students missing an entire school year!

The Landscape

The Most recent statistics on U.S. standings on “behavior” (Crime-FBI national bureau statistics- source) indicate that we are a nation at risk today:

#1 in assaults per year –over 2.2million ( S Africa 2nd at

500,000/yr)

#4 in drug related offenses -560 per 100,000 ( only

Switzerland, Netherlands, New Zealand higher)

#6 in capital offenses in the world – over 12000 murders per

year!

#1 in overall incarcerations – over 2million in jails ( China 2nd

at 1.5 million)- but they have almost 10 times the population!
