Colleagues,

Those of you who are working with teen parents or who have other teens in 
your program may be interested in the tool described below.  I downloaded it and 
found it to be compatible with the EFF Role Maps. 


IMPROVEMENT FOR EDUCATION PROGRAMS & SCHOOLS SERVING VULNERABLE YOUTH
The National Youth Employment Coalition (NYEC) is pleased to announce a
new tool for continuous improvement for education programs and schools
serving vulnerable youth. NYEC EDNet consists of detailed criteria
identified as common to effective education programs and schools by a
national working group of educators, practitioners, policymakers and
researchers. NYEC EDNet also includes a comprehensive self-assessment that
can assist education programs and schools improve their services and also
inform policymakers, funders and the public about what works for youth.
To inform and improve instruction for vulnerable youth; 
To assist educators, practitioners and administrators; 
To build a knowledge base and field of community-based/alternative education; 
To collect better and more information in order to create better policies and 
resources for youth; 
To create more options to achieve; and 
To better prepare youth for post-secondary education, careers and training. 


NYEC EDNet was developed with support from the Charles Stewart Mott
Foundation.
