24-25 BGC of the Foothills Data Management VISTA

Boys Girls Club of the Foothills (BGCF) was established in response to high levels of delinquency, juvenile crime, gang activity and drug use among youth in the densely populated, multi-ethnic areas of Monrovia and Duarte in Los Angeles County. Our mission is to enable all young people, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as productive, caring, and responsible citizens. Our vision is that every young person who walks through our doors receives the support and resources they need to successfully graduate from high school, set goals for the future, and demonstrate good character and a healthy lifestyle. Founded in 1994, BGCF provides a safe and productive place to spend time during non-school hours for youth who might otherwise end up on the streets, at home alone, or engaging in unsafe behavior. We provide transportation from 13 school site locations, serving 350-400 young people each day at two K-5 sites and a teen center. We are open Monday - Friday before school, afterschool, and all day during summers and holiday breaks. BGCF offers nationally recognized, evidence-based programs with a strong educational and mentoring focus, empowering youth who may have never envisioned a future to make positive choices and believe in their ability to succeed. BGCF is seeking support with data collection systems and information technology. We are expanding services onto five additional locations in the 2024-2025 school year and will be migrating to a new data management system. In order to effectively scale programming, we need to structure/refine our data collection, outcomes measurements, and continuous quality improvement procedures. We also need to ensure a smooth data import and transition to the new system, train staff on use, and set procedures for reporting and analysis.
