2012/2013 Annual Report

Where 2,985 youth found a place to grow, thrive and create positive change! Dear Friends,

On behalf of our staff and the 2,985 youth we served in 2012-2013, thank you for supporting Oasis Center.

As I wrap up my first full year at Oasis, one word comes to mind: Strength. President John F. Kennedy said, “Do not pray for easier lives; pray to be stronger.” For Oasis, fis- cal year 2012-2013 was about remembering, testing, and increasing our strength as an agency. I am proud to say that today, as it has been for the last forty-five years, Oasis Center remains a strong, bright ray of light shining for the youth of Nashville.

This year, we faced unprecedented opportunities for growth. Some initially presented themselves as difficult challenges, but all proved to be absolutely invaluable for us. In the face of ever-changing federal funding, we came together to ensure that not only would we continue our current services without interruption, we would also rise above the temporary challenges and face the bigger need of evaluating and strengthening our role in the community. Thanks to our dedicated staff and your support, we managed to successfully overcome our challenges and finished the year a stronger, more cohesive agency.

Thank you for believing in the power of Oasis Center to be just that for the youth of Nashville-the oasis where they can count on finding the care, the support, and the opportunities they deserve.

Sincerely,

Tom Ward, CEO

YEA incorporates the TOP ® model of care throughout its programming.

Oasis believes that every young person has the ability and capacity to create positive change. By building strong relationships with caring adults, and engaging in service learning opportunities, YEA youth realize and embrace their ability to create change in their lives and in their community.

Youth who participate in YEA programming are likely to greatly reduce the chances of early drug and alcohol abuse as well as lower the risk of teen pregnancy. Through early engagement in college preparation and leadership opportunities, youth are empowered to connect to resources that will lead them toward productive and healthy adulthood.

Youth Engagement & Action Youth Opportunity Center Oasis Center continually seeks ways to enhance the potential and opportunities for youth in our community. The Mayor’s Youth Council, Building Bridges, Just Us, The R.E.A.L. Program, The Oasis Bike Workshop, the Underground Art Studio, and MTA Youth Action Team each provide unique opportunities to empower youth in a safe way so they practice meaningful and life- changing experiences that will carry them successfully to young adulthood. 852 Youth participants 5,067 Service Hours A connection to the community & increased self esteem 88% Grade Advancement broadening future opportunities 71% engaged in College Counseling!
