FIT

Families In Transition


   

Each year the Families In Transition (FIT) program sponsored by Charity Cultural Services Center (CCSC) enrolls 14-18 year old, limited English proficient, recently immigrant youth from (3) San Francisco schools: Newcomer High School, Galileo High School, and Mission High School.

Achievements include increasing youth's success in the following areas:

1) Grade point average
2) Communication skills
3) Self-esteem and self-competence
4) Increase in perception for a brighter future

Working closely with school counselors and teachers, program staff participate in school orientations to introduce incoming students to the FIT program. Priority is given to "at-risk" students (those experiencing severe adjustment problems reflected in academic and social behavior and performance).

Program staff conducts assessments and interviews to evaluate applicants from other sources. Language proficiency of all applicants is evaluated through the Language and Literacy Assessment Rubic (a process developed by the San Francisco Unified School District).

Together, they develop a web site to preserve Chinese American heritage and narrow the digital divide thereby empowering all participants and increasing the workplace viability of the FIT youth.

博愛關心華裔新移民無微不至
“高中生課業輔導計劃”輔導青少年


     常聽華裔社區的人說,博愛文化服務中心爲新移民設想周到。這話一點不假。博愛除了舉辦厨師班、調酒及侍應班,職業培訓新移民學習謀生技能外,對他們的子女,也訂有一套完整的計劃。
     青少年新移民來到美國之後,全新的生活環境,完全不同的文化,令他們産生極大的恐懼感。特別在學業方面,英語能力不足,往往使他們陷入困境,無法理解課業的內容。而作爲父母的,大部分都必須爲生活掙扎,可說自顧不暇,實在再無餘力兼顧子女們學業上和心理上的問題。其中一些或許很快適應新的環境,但也會因接觸了不同文化和背景的同學和新事物,而變得與父母的關係越來越疏遠,從而又産生新的問題。在實際個案中,不少新移民的子女就因此而自暴自弃,變成問題青少年。
     有見及此,博愛文化服務中心特別針對此問題,自九三年開始,創設“高中生課業輔導計劃”(Families in Transition),聘請導師,幫助新移民學生解决課業上、家庭上,以及“如何面對新環境”、“如何選擇未來路”等種種問題。每逢週五和週六,專責社工或透過諸如參觀、訪問、旅行等戶外活動;或共聚博愛中心,以游戲、講座、戲劇、討論會形式,幫助他們認識美國的社會、風俗及文化,加速他們溶入主流社會。
     不少接受輔導學生的家長都說,曾經十分擔心兒女來美後的學業和成長,但自從得到“高中生課業輔導計劃”輔導員的幫助之後,不僅學業成績有進步,生活也充實多了。眼見兒女們不斷進步,他們作爲家長的也倍感安慰了。
     高中生課業輔導計劃的課后補習班是一個社會服務及學術性的課餘活動,可以給予新移民學子們幫助。我們在三所華裔新移民學生衆多的中學,包括迦俐略高中、米慎高中和新僑高中,每學期一共服務超過75個學生。我們的輔導計劃在文化和學術方面為學生提供了全面的輔導,包括課后的補習、雙語輔導、讀寫能力提高、自我增值、想像力培養、文化工藝活動以及職業培訓。而我們派駐學校的輔導員亦與學校輔導處和老師緊密合作,確保所有需要幫助的學生都得到我們的輔導。我們的課后補習班逢周一至周四的午餐時間以及下午課后的3點至5點之間為學生提供輔導。同時,自我增值和文娛活動也定期在周五舉辦。我們的目標是幫助學生融入社會,可以獨立和有能力地回饋社會。
