Our Agency
Full Circle of Lake County, Inc. is a non-profit 501(c)(3) with a mission “To provide opportunities,education, and caring relationships to help Lake County become a place where youth make
healthy choices, families thrive and the community is united.”
History: The Full Circle Project began in 1991, with a single employee, as part of a project toevaluate the effectiveness of inter-generational mentoring in reducing youth substance abuse.Based on the success of the initial mentoring project, the Full Circle Advisory Board decided topursue continuance funding and expand the services offered based on need. Full Circle of LakeCounty, Inc. was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) organization in 1997 and programs were added to
prevent substance abuse in high school students and to provide parents with child-rearingskills. Full Circle has expanded to offer a program for at risk middle school students, a
women’s empowerment group and leading a community integration initiative.
Programs: Youth exhibiting at-risk behavior or coming from at-risk environments are enrolled indevelopmentally appropriate programs as follows: Youth ages 9-12: Mentoring & After-school
program, Youth ages 12-14: Outdoor Leadership, Youth ages 14-18: High School programs(Boogie Down Productions DJ club, Girls Circle, Boys Council, Latinos Unidos, W(rec)K-LESS).
Parents referred by Social Services, Lake County Combined Courts or self referred attend DAREto be You and Active Parenting parent/child parent education and may also participate in the
Empowerment Group for acculturating mothers. Family Leadership Training Institute is open toall community members and increases civic engagement and leadership.
Approach: Full Circle’s approach to prevention is founded on the Social Development Theory ofHawkins & Catalano (http://www.communitiesthatcare.net/userfiles/files/ Investing-in-Your-
Community-Youth.pdf) which focuses on increasing Family and Community protective factors. Allprograms follow the Strategic Prevention Framework and Evidence Based Principlesfor Substance Abuse Prevention. Full Circle has statistically significant results across
multiple measures for the past 25 years. Measures include: Bonding, Cultural Appreciation, 30day use of alcohol & marijuana, Attitudes toward anti-social behavior, Parent/child Bonding,
School Bonding and Limit Setting.
Partners: Full Circle collaborates with more than a dozen local agencies, government entities andthe Lake County School District to deliver its services. The agency was the founding member and
continues to serve on the Lake County Build A Generation community prevention board. FullCircle helped organize and facilitate the 2012 Youth Master Plan. Over the past year we havepartnered with Lake County Build a Generation on a Health Equity initiative to improve socialdeterminants of health. Primary sources of funding are state prevention agencies and private
foundations though the agency also receives strong community support through in-kinddonations and fundraising events.

Mentoring
Since its inception in 1991, Full Circle’s Mentoring Program continues to be a valuablecomponent of the agency’s efforts in the prevention field. In the past year this program has
served 45 children in grades 4 through 12, and 31 active mentors (44 matches, as somementors have multiple mentees). At any given time Full Circle averages 36 active matches.The amazing dedication of our volunteer mentors-with more than 2804 hours of donated
time has made a huge impact.
These relationships are fundamental to the development of healthy behaviors and attitudesof youth within our community. Most of the youth in the mentoring program are in 4th-6thgrades, though many matches continue for years. Research has shown that a positive adult
role model in a child’s life will prevent substance abuse, criminal behavior, school drop-out andteen pregnancy.
The Full Circle Mentoring program continues to provide a variety of after-schoolactivities for our 4th—6th graders to keep them engaged in positive activities. Our kids areable to experience the unique environment Leadville has to offer through such activities as
hiking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing, swimming, sledding, ice-skating, fishing, artsand crafts, cooking, and community service. This year there were 104 activities provided forboys and girls. Monthly mentor/ youth activities continue to be a successful way to engage
mentors and kids together in a festive atmosphere.
New brain research has demonstrated the importance of a consistent mentoring relationshipfor youth to be able to learn and succeed academically. This really reinforces what we have
seen over the years. Youth in our mentoring program are more bonded to school and thecommunity. Full Circle Mentoring strives for excellence and quality. Through technical
assistance and training we have improved our recruitment and screening process.

Outdoor Leadership
Full Circle's Outdoor Leadership Club builds healthy youth leaders in grades 6th, 7th and 8th.We served 86 youth with 70 activities. These activities are structured to encourage positive
choices and life skills through outdoor recreation and participation within an after-schoolprogram, as well as weekend and summer expeditions. Youth activities include team building,
leadership, outdoor adventures such as hiking, biking, rock climbing, downhill and crosscountry skiing, and snowboarding, as well as outdoor skills, sports, games, crafts, and
community service learning. The activities also provide an opportunity for participants toform relationships with adults and peers, as well as to develop and practice communication,
teamwork, and problem-solving skills.
Youth earn points for participation during the school year, and those with the highest pointsearn participation in special activities including ski days. Monthly events include activitieslike rock climbing, snowboarding, and camping. The Utah climbing trip in June is a capstone
adventure encompassing all the skills learned throughout the year. We took two groups thisyear, girls and boys and everyone did the massive rappel! The group also did two 10th Mt.Hut trips this past summer and stacked wood and cleaned the hut for public use. Thanks toour diligent youth the huts are ready for the public. Youth, especially those who enter theprogram with the greatest need show statistically significant increase in resilience which
includes: determination, problem-solving and self-discipline.

High School Programs
This was another exciting year for Full Circle’s wide variety of high school programs—whichall focus on prevention. Throughout the groups, there were 66 youth participants in our
unique programs.
Girls’ Circle is a model program engaging girls in discussions around body image, health,decision making and positive self concept. Boys Council is the parallel program for boys. FullCircle offered Girls' Circle and Boys Council to 50 youth; 161 class periods and 37 activities
were facilitated. Latinas Unidas/ Girls Group members attended weekly activities that focuson skill building around dating violence and healthy relationships, and uses strength-basedapproaches. We incorporate education around alcohol, drugs, violence and other high risk
behaviors into fun alternative activities. Students Against Destructive Decisions(SADD) members conducted social norms campaigns and hot-spot mapping, monthly
educational activities that reach the entire high school. W(rec)k-less Club is an after-schoolactivity-focused program working with youth at risk for drinking and driving between the
ages of 13-17. Students meet weekly for a combination of positive healthy activities,discussion, and education. As a result, both alcohol and marijuana use declined among
students who used previously. Boogie Down Productions is our DJ club where high schoolstudents attend our weekly practices to learn the skills of playing music for a larger audience.
The group learned about segues, public speaking, set up and tear down and equipmentoperation while discussing music styles, lyrics, and careers. Once student DJs are trained they
go out into the community to DJ community events. Our JUNTOS program helped 14 highschool seniors with life plans. Students are provided support to help decide a path post-highschool, including including community college, 4-year university, vocational/ trade schools,and into the workforce. Reconnecting Youth is a substance abuse prevention curriculum
offered as a class this year at Lake County High School. 26 youth completed the course. FullCircle's Restorative Justice program at the high school ended in May 2017, when the
restorative justice program transferred to the school district to continue the work. Duringthe 2016-2017 school year, Full Circle led a course that focused on leadership skills, team
building, and conflict resolution strategies. Full Circle will no longer be leading therestorative justice work in the school district, but are always available to support the schools
through and after the transition!

Parenting Education
The Family Support Project continues to empower parents to create healthy environmentsfor their children. Parents were better able to set limits and create a positive home
environment. Children used their personal power to make better decisions. Parents and theirchildren enrolled in the Family Support Project this year.
DARE to be You, a model evidence-based parenting curriculum, was completed four times,
twice in Spanish and twice in English. Active Parenting was also facilitated in both languagesfor parents of older children in grades 3 to 8. We also provided 5 teenagers the opportunity to
work as “teen angels” in the DARE to be You children’s classes. This is an impactful way toteach teenagers parenting skills before they become parents, and to prevent teen pregnancy!
We had 29 children complete the curriculum, and many women continue with Full Circleby participating in our Women's Empowerment group.
Research has shown that children receiving High Warmth/Low Criticism style of parentingwill be less likely to engage in alcohol, tobacco and other drug use. The scales Full Circle usedare indicators of High Warmth/Low Criticism parenting techniques. Full Circle participants
showed changes in: Stress, Limit Setting, Positive Attitude, Communication, and Parent/Child Bonding.
Families actively engage in these programs which are highly interactive and use a positiveapproach toward improving family environments. Many parents are referred by the Dept. of
Human Services or Divorce Court. Almost all indicate an improvement in their family life as aresult of these programs. There are many cultural differences across parenting practices, and
these parenting programs offer opportunities to learn effective approaches to raisingchildren. Many parents have mentioned that the parenting classes are very beneficial
because they are able to build community around learning positive and healthy parentingtechniques, and have a place to bring questions and concerns to get guidance.

Women's Empowerment
Started in 2001 the Women’s Empowermentgroup continues to meet weekly throughoutthe year. Full Circle works to decrease stress
and domestic violence and to increaseleadership skills both in the family and in the
community. From art projects to discussion offamily issues, acculturating women developinto community leaders. Women significant
increases in community involvement and insense of self.
This year, women in the group learned how tosew clothing and then used to their newly
developed skills to make folkloric skirts thatrepresent the Mexican skirts used in ballet. The outfits are often showcased in large or
parades, and our Women's Group membersshowcased their work at the Fiestas Patrias
parade on Harrison Ave. in Leadville. Theskirts were a big hit.
Familias Juntas
Full Circle's newest program addition, FamiliasJuntas, creates opportunities to bring Latino
families in our community out into thewilderness and learn about outdoor activities.
The program began in March 2017, and 8activities took place through the end of thefiscal year in June 2017. Activities includedhikes and picnics, and focused on engaging
families to enjoy the outdoors together.

Health Equity
Full Circle is a partner in the Colorado Trust Health Equity Advocacy strategy that wasdesigned to strengthen individual and collective capacity to “seed” an emerging health equity
advocacy field in Colorado. Health Equity: Attainment of the highest level of health for all people. Health Equity means efforts to
ensure that all people have full and equal access to opportunities that enable them to lead healthylives.
Full Circle and Lake County Build A Generation partnered to build the advocacycapacity of those most affected by health disparities to ensure their voices drive thechanges necessary to ensure equitable health outcomes for their communities. Thepartnership serves as a remarkable example of how a direct service provider and a
community organizing group can work effectively together to address health inequities intheir community. Lake County HEP’s work is fueled not only by concerns about major
inequities faced by their community members, but also by a frustration that rural residentsare so often excluded from health equity advocacy efforts. The partners emphasize that in
Colorado’s rural high country, residents face critical and unique health challenges that are toooften overshadowed by metro counties in statewide health equity conversations. These
challenges include a child poverty rate that is higher than the state average (27% versus 18%,according to 2012 Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment data), a large andunderserved immigrant population, food costs that are 18% higher than the national average,
and extremely high health care costs relative to metro areas.
Lake County HEP’s Phase 2 Work Lake County HEP’s work over the course of Phase 2 has been focused primarily on
increasing the leadership, equity, and advocacy capacity of community members andagencies working to ensure the community’s well-being. Community member capacity
building occurred primarily through the implementation of two key programs: the FamilyLeadership Training Institute (FLTI) and Lake County’s Health Learning Series. “I think
[this work] has created an appreciation that there is a really different perspectiveout there that we can tap into when we work directly arm-in- arm with the people we
most want to be inclusive of and engage with.”−Alice Pugh, Executive Director
Civic Engagement has increased and family leaders are contributing important projects toour community.

Family Leadership Training Institute
Family Leadership Training Institute (FLTI) Leadville completed our second class of amazingleaders in October 2016. Two years ago, Full Circle and Lake County Build A Generation
teamed up through our health equity work funded by the Colorado Trust to bring FLTI to ourcommunity. We believe that equity in housing, economic justice, transportation, and
opportunities begin with family leaders. The first few years have been very successful! In oursecond year of FLTI, 7 participants completed the course. The alumni, primarily immigrants
who have never had a voice in the community, chose to complete their course projects inmany places across Lake County. Examples of projects include forming a suicide prevent
coalition, creating bi-lingual victims advocates positions, and building a safe highway crossingcoalition.
The third class began in May 2017, with 11 spanish-speaking participants. The courseimproves every year and we are excited to see the major impacts the 11 Latina women will
have across Lake County.
Full Circle firmly believes that supporting leadership and civic engagement is crucial towardmoving the needle on health equity. An engaged and passionate community can best make
change happen, and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to partner with strong communitymembers to continue to change how our community defines Leadership.
