3:46 am
volunteers his time to coach kids killed all want to be bad give don't want to be gangsters they don't want to be drug dealers they don't want that but without a time live they help a kid came be we can see when we first came this play was a major because we had to work on that we had to get that to be the number one thing and we won a battle was there so we were going to stay here we're going we're going to be engaged in life want to develop bases and we're serious about where we want to go what we're doing there we saw a change the n.i.d. or disrespect they appear attention more focus they're more concerned and eager to want to learn and grow under developed for the fifth patches and brought more part of the daily commitment is helping kids to see a brighter future seventy five percent children i worked with couldn't write down their dreams and their hopes their aspirations we talked to a nineteen year old who didn't realize what he was going to do in five years and he said i'm not to be alive and appears. and so we realized we had to wipe that slate
3:47 am
clean that that curriculum is not going to work here we had to start with the basics teach the kids how to imagine again one of our foster children that lived with us during this time came up to me very very worried he was nine he thought that my seven year old there was something wrong with him because the seven year old was sitting on the couch saying hey chris ok rin spaceship we're going to go explore you sit here and i'll be the pilot and chris was trying to convince me that there was something wrong with my son because he didn't know where he was chris had lost at nine years old the ability to imagine while development activities for youth vis pageants realize that many of the children at the center only getting fed in school. we said we did something one thursday night that's now turned to every thursday night we had some extra money and we had a donation come in that we were allowed order pizza with we had everybody come in
3:48 am
and they had to sit down at a meal i rearranged all the tables into a family style meal and we served the pizza sitting down and having a meal together and they had to talk to each other well those who are not from new orleans may not know this but there are words not supposed to talk to ten thwart their mamas and their grandmothers in their great grandmothers have told them that parkway in zion city no way but the power of pizza over that seems you know when every day they have to sit down when they eat together and they have to speak to each other kids have found out they were related when they thought they were enemies kids have found out they have a common grandparent kids have found out their evacuation story was the same. and i find this common ground when they talk to each other like ethan is a very good thing for the kids to keep kids off the street to help you homework
3:49 am
we have my fun time family nights make sure no one has a fight. in their pants down below but they teach us to do the right bangs and life so we don't go in a bad direction we don't have fun and no no no way i think. that all of the kids cavities all the right ways the water they'll get farther behind us and do the right thing. quartered central city you can palm a project helps young people from around the area by providing a variety of services they offer tutoring mentor and counseling as well as special assistance to those who are transitioning back home from detention centers by providing tents case management we could help them reconnect you know with family and community and make a healthy transition into young adulthood when they self esteem is now when they begin to feel that nobody is want to give them an opportunity but then they began
3:50 am
to shut down and then they go back to the things that are in their community that they think is a way to get out of it or a nasty struggle is like a revolving door i know christian won't kill us all bodies just right you bet you they're going to run through. the we're just thinking what you think about the supports that you care and if they were not there you know with choices which you have me feeling words should be reflected in this document that you should be doing what you should be using some of this only. make you you know it's not something that's going to happen overnight it's a it's a process you know you have to get back to the things that we got away from and it's about understanding and allowing the kids. to to to know that you really
3:51 am
care you know because if you take hope i mean if you don't you know him no reason at all now for a simple way when now it is. you know i was going to be that and that and. the man you know one of the last words was that route is not going to buy. those who are actually. doing the job around these times you just get up to go crazy they now want out if she can and will help. are willing to see you on the day so yes if we knew you in the least you know we would go for a change of what we call them on. our. time and be helpful me ok you are using for all the good you do what is the reason hainsey you follow the rules i was told that a very good very good this or
3:52 am
a good one you raise a ball a. very. it's a lot of people getting killed though to a really good cd life and i will see my like i am tired of people having children and hoping that they make it i would children are supposed to make it help me with my boys the amato don't come to miles which of potato salad in your words of condolence is help me while he is alive more parks more. or you know what a fine thing but ima do better schools and they have work to keep young teens off the streets best book courts could. organization groups had us in the district i'm
3:53 am
talking about where you know somewhere else because it is we streaming know everything being we because we had no choice but to be become no deaths we see you out of me give young people come at us there you have to sort of like very british if you know it like give them back to the point where they should be you know when we talk about the future of louisiana and the future of our city we need to change around the dynamic we are first in incarceration and yet either last or next to last in education that is certainly not the way to produce a viable state in terms of economic opportunity in terms of investment but it's also throwing away an entire generation of young folks i think people finally agree that you can't are enough cops to make the city safe people say make the laws harsher harsh is harsh when you hit on a street with a man ten and some rock you don't care where the ng go away for wife or not whether a teenager is where his pants down to his knees cursing up a storm or brandishing
