In 1966 Kentucky got, for the first time, a roughly accurate look at its juvenile delinquency problem. In that year, the Attorney General's Office, in cooperation with the Department of Child Welfare, developed a voluntary and uniform juvenile offense reporting system . They found the over-all picture bleak, showing little end in sight to the rising tide of juvenile crime in the state of Kentucky. The Kentucky Youth Conference was designed to do something about this problem. It is based on the theory that y oung people, if given the opportunity, can themselves develop solutions to the problem of juvenile delinquency; that their energy, insight, and imagination cannot be overlooked; and that they should seize the l eadership in dealing with this problem. These concepts of the Conference became a reality in August of 1967 and again in August of 1968 when more than 800 high school age people from a ll parts of Kentucky gathered at Eastern Kentucky University in Richmond to ask themselves what they could do about juvenile crime in their local communities. Their discussions, s timulated by exce llent speakers, programs , and the most comprehensive data on juvenile crime available , sparked many ideas for local projects . Youth Conference delegates have organized a teen jury in Henderson; a three - county Central T een Council in northern Kentucky involving county judges and police judges ; a youth employm e nt servic e in Versailles which, in its first year of operation, found jobs for s ome e ighty young people in the area; a nd a Boyd County program which has involved pre-teen children of indigent parents in the area in picnics and horseback riding . Many such programs throughout the Commonwe alth have met with such great success , unprece d e nted c ommunity interes t a nd widespread s upport tha t the annual Conferen ce will now remain a perm a n e nt ins titution in Ke ntucky. l �Delegates to the Conference have been sponsored in the past by more than twenty thousand Kentuckians representing corporations, labor unions, civic clubs, schools, and church organizations. These groups, along with various other foundations and youth organizations interested in the development of Kentucky youth and the prevention of juvenile delinquency, lend financial support to the Conference efforts. The Kentucky Youth Conference is now sponsored by the privately financed, non-profit Kentucky Juvenile Delinquency Prevention and Youth Development Foundation of Louisville, Kentucky and has begun a Sustaining Member Program intended to broaden its financial base, while giving Kentuckians a chance to participate in its efforts in an important and essential way. Throughout the entire state businesses, organizations and individuals recognize and support the tremendous potential of the Kentucky Youth Conference, and of Kentucky young people, to mobilize the resources of the state in effective combat against juvenile delinquency and to explore new areas of constructive citizenship for the young.

Atlanta, Ge orgia 30334 Re : Atlanta Youth Council Dear Mayor Allen: John Cox has tendered and the Executive Committee of the Youth Council has accepted his resignation from his job as Executive Director as of July 31, 1969. John is leaving the Youth Council to take Frank Thomas' job as Executive Director of the Butler Street Y. The Executive Committee of the Youth Council feels that John has served the Council diligently and effectively during his tenure as Executive Director. Before attempting to recruit a successor to John Cox, we wanted to ask y ou if you had any s uggestions for a s uccessor that we could offer to the committee in charge of selecting such a person and also to ask y ou if y our conception of the Youth Council or of the job to be filled had changed. As y ou may remember, there was some talk last Fall of conso lidating the Youth Council with another group s uch as the Crime Commission or the Community Relations Commi ssion. At that time, we were anxious to ge t the Council functioning and i t s pro g rams underwa y and did not want to ge t involved in a re-examinati o n of its p urposes or its p l ace in the structure o f City Government. That is still a fair assessment of the sentiment of the Executive Committee. Ne v e rthe l e s s , if changes in the status of the Council are contemplated, the Executive Committee felt that these changes should be known to it and taken into ac c ount in its p roce s s of rec ruiting a s ucces s or to John Cox .

Many of Atlant a ' s young teen-age children come to that community during the weekends and are exposed to the use of drugs. Also there are other people who come from outside of Atlanta who are not knowledgable about the dangers of drugs. Duane Beck bas asked the Youth Council to undertake a drug education program in the Hippy community and it is his suggestion that if it is to be effective it must avoid moralizing over the use of drugs and it must involve members of the community .

Said proposals are: Absenteeism Project; Central Coordination Services for Model Cities Youthi Juvenile Delinquency Prevention; and, United Youth Outreach. It is my understanding that the above projects were a part of the total program submitted to and approved by HUD. It is my further understanding that Jerry Luxemberger and John Cox appeared before the Executive Cormnittee to review and discuss the projects at which time questions were raised on the Absenteeism Proi!:_ct and the others were 11 all right 11 • Later Mr. Luxemberger conferred with Mr. Dan Sweat to obtain the general position of the Mayor concerning the Youth Council's Projects. It is my understanding that Mr. Luxemberger was informed that all of the projects were approved by the Mayor e xcept the Absenteeism Project. While we understand the broad responsibilities the Model Cities staff has in finalizing all of the projects submitted by the various agencies and organizations, the Youth Council Board is unable to ascertain reasons for the seemingly unusual delay in funding Council's projects.

A big part of the urban problem i8 essentially a youth problem in terms of hwnan resources and development; and any urban planning must take into con ider tion this very important ingredient. 1 would recommend that youth be intimately involved in any coordinating activities aimed at helping youth. I would specifically recommend that : 1. yo~th serve ob the Board of Youth Commie ion; 2. youth serve in an advisory c pacity to your City Planning Department; 3. youth rv Education; 4. youth rve 5. youth erve Agency; 6. youth rv in an advisory capacity to your Board of s con ulta.nts to your Recreation Dep rtin nt; con ultants to your Public Employm nt consultants to th Mayor' Office . �The problem of youth unrest is certainly one to be dealt with . This is not only true in Atlanta, but is the case in every major city in the nation. Atlanta's approach to dealing with this problem centers around the . general lack of services, commitments and interest on the part of larger communities . In this respect, the Atlanta Youth Council has been very effective in getting agencies to provide more services on a need basis; the result being those youth most in need of the services, receiving it. In addition, the total community has been alerted to the pressing need for providing adequate and effective services for all youth in the Metropolitan area . It is my feeling and while all of ful involvement sary ingredient that Atlanta has been very successful in this regard the youth problems have not been solved, the successof the total com.m unity on youth problems is the necesto succeesfully solving these problems; I hope this brief explanation has been helpful to you and will assist you in planning and coordinating the various services in your city.

The Youth Council, at its September meeting, decided that the Drug Education Project in the 14th Street area was an item which required further study by the Council and the Interagency Committee on Alcohol and Drugs before it could commit wholeheartedly to it. As you know, Lewis Dinkins has been trying to find some space in that community for housing a clinic sta rted last summer, a nd to date, has been unable to do so. We will certainly continue these efforts. Also, Lewis contacted Fulton County Health Department in efforts to ascertain resources which they had a vailable for drug educa tion and found tha t they were not substantial, to s ay the least . _After considerable discussion, the Youth Council Boa rd decided that any drug educ a tion a ctivity should be , a t present, under the juris diction of the Interagency Committee on Alcohol and Drugs which was c r eated in cooper ation with your organization .

However, we have now secured what we consider an excellent slate and would like to seek your approval s6 that they may begin serving as soon as possible. We realize that it is also necessary for these officers to be approved by the Board of Alder men, but since we have a Board meeting scheduled for Thursday, December 11, we would appreciate your signifying that they take office at this time. Clarence Elsas has agreed to serve as Chairmano Fletcher Coombs, who has been our treasurer, and DeJongh Franklin have agreed to serve as Vice Chairmen. Although you do not need to appoint the balance of the Executive Committee, we would like for you to know that they are: Horace Sibley as Secretary, Jerry Luxemburger, John Cox, and myself, as members - at - large. Because the terms of these proposed members of the Executive Com mittee have expired, it will also be necessary to re - appoint Clarence Elsas, DeJongh Franklin, Jerry Luxemburger and Horace Sibley for another one (i) year term . John Cox is a Hong the ne w board members to be appointed and has already been nominated in this capacity by the Youth Council Board in October .

The City of Atlanta, in turn, designated E0A as the agency who will · receive such fundso This does not mean, nor has it ever meant, that this is an E0A project exclusively or an E0A delegate agency; this simply means that E0A's responsibility in this project has been the administrative input necessary for effective program implementation . The City Sanitation Division also co-sponsor e d this p r oject with specific responsibilities accepted by them as an equal to E0A, Atlanta Youth Council and all other sponsors and co-sponsors. Most of the agencies participating in this project have been fle x i ble enough to make sufficient input and provide sufficient re sources to move the project effectively at this point in time o However, some of us are still laboring under long - range and irrele vant concepts which tend to hamper and render ineffective any progress in this area. . . . . - -..- . - --.. - - ·-· . - " .- . . . ·- . �-2- As Director of the Rodent Control Project, I am requesting that you use the influence of your office to insure that such short comings be effectively dealt with and eliminated .

This action would be in lieu of the Council having to submit a new scop:? of ser vices in another Amendatory Application for 1969, and 3. In addition to the abo ve, the Council requests additio~al federal funds from HUD for the Youth Opportunity Progr am for 1969 in t he amount of $30,000.

Edmunds of February 25, 1969 This is to request that you transfer the $8, 615 remaining in Amendatory Application #2 of the Community Improvement Program to the Atlanta Children and Youth Services Council. It was the inte nt of the Pre sid e nt's Council on Youth Opportunity that the CRP in HUD b e used simply as a conduit to provide funds to city youth agencies for summer planning and programming. There was no intent to require local CRP (CIP) agencies to justify the use of these funds as a part of the normal CRP program activities. This is also the understanding of John Edmunds. I see no reason w hy w e should not transfer the rema1n1ng funds from the 1968 approv al to the Youth Council immediately so they w_ill b e able to continue their present activities without interruption. Mr. E dmunds has informe d me th a t the $30, 000 for 1969 YOP activiti e s has been set aside by HUD in Washington for Atlanta's use.
