Needs and Uses: DoD Child Youth Programs (CYPs) require
Anchored4Life (A4L) to provide Transition and Resiliency training to
Navy (USN), Air Force (USAF), Space Force (USSF), Army (USA) and Marine
Corps (USMC) School based elementary, middle, and high schools,
installation CYPs, and Geo-dispersed locations. Service Branch CYPs are
required by Title 10 U.S.C. 1785, ``Youth Sponsorship Program'' and DoD
Instruction 6060.04, ``Youth Services (YS) Policy,'' to provide School
Liaison program and Youth Sponsorship. Service Branches use CYP
Education Services (CYES) to execute this requirement using School
Liaisons (SL), School Based Programs (SBP) and Youth Programs (YP).
Execution includes providing resiliency and transition training and
support, as well as system navigation assistance to parents of military
associated children. A4L is an essential element of the military CYPs,
PreK-12 System Navigation, and youth sponsorship programs and shall be
provided at military installations and be available to Geo-dispersed
locations.
The USN, USAF, and USSF, through the Trevor Romain Contract HDQMWR-
21-D-003, are requesting OMB approval for a qualitative study of the
A4L program intended to support military-connected youth. Military-
connected youth in kindergarten through 12th grade face challenges that
are similar to their civilian counterparts and also face unique
challenges specific to their association with the military (e.g.,
deployments, frequent moves; Karre & Perkins, 2022). There has been
little research examining the implementation or effectiveness of
programs and initiatives available to support military-connected youth
(Karre & Perkins, 2022).
The purpose of this study is to investigate the implementation of
A4L training to support military-connected youth (i.e., kindergarten
through 12th grade) to review current research on K-12 military-
connected youth and evaluate A4L programming to determine effectiveness
of transition, deployment support, and resiliency impact on other key
youth issues including bullying prevention, as well as recovery from
grief and suicide. The long-term goal is to foster life skills and
resiliency in military-connected youth while in school. Supporting
youth is helpful to the military since about 45% of military-connected
youth enter Military Service as adults. Having these life skills will
assist youth in becoming productive young adults.
The evaluation questions to be addressed are as follows:
(1) How is A4L programming being implemented within schools and the
Child and Youth Programs?
(2) Is the training and support increasing program quality through
knowledge acquisition and standardization?
(3) Are the youth being supported by their peers when going through
the transition topics supported by A4L?
(4) Are youth learning life skills, beginning in elementary school,
that increase their resiliency to become productive young adults?
(5) Are the partnerships or other programs having the intended
impact?
(6) Based on the analysis of the implementation data, what
recommendations related evidence-informed practices within youth
development need to be implemented or enhanced?
To answer these evaluative questions, semi-structured interviews
will be conducted with A4L Stakeholders (Military Connected
Individuals, Administrative points of contact, Advisers, and A4L Staff)
and youth participating in A4L (Team Leaders, Crew Members, and A4L
representatives).
Affected Public: Individuals or households.
Frequency: Once.
