ABOUT OUR PROGRAMS:

BUILDING DREAMS

Through our proprietary behavioral health SaaS offering, the Building Dreams App, we provide a complete system developed from the evidence based Multi-Tiered System of Supports model, the resource combines Social Emotional Learning curriculum with Social Emotional Behavioral assessments, Positive Behavioral Interventions & Supports, Data Analytics, and communication resources.

The Building Dreams platform enables users to make data driven decisions to meet the needs of students, families, and staff. With our ability to engage, collect, and process data through our sensor, we meet the needs of trauma filled schools and communities. We are the sensor that is needed to directly assess and address school culture and climate while proactively shaping the mindset of the student population, their families, and the overall community. This strategy is being deployed to combat the current negative Psychosocial Behavioral conditions of poor minority communities. This strategy helps families cope with their Social Determinants of Health and reduce student ACE scores. We treat and reduce trauma by providing the resources needed to build a growth mindset and improve decision making.

The primary goals are to: Reduce student’s emotional distress; Reduce conduct problems; Improve academic performance; Improve teacher classroom management skills; Increase parental engagement; Improve school culture; and Connect students and families to the care and services they need.

SEAL THE DEAL

MAKE BIG PLAYS IN THE GAME OF LIFE.

Seal the Deal includes a series of youth flag football camps. While helping students improve their athletic skills, Seal the Deal is designed to help students “Make big plays on and off the field,” by combining the game of football with the game of life and daily character development activities. Seal the Deal means, “Make a big play,” which is what we want our participants to strive for throughout their lives by developing the social skills needed to make even bigger plays off the field.

Seal the Deal is a youth flag football camp and tournament that utilizes sports-related activities as teaching agents to help students “make big plays on and off the field.” The 2-day Youth Football Camps focus on agility, conditioning, football fundamentals, competition, character building, and fun.

R.A.P.

R.A.P. is a program built to teach self-reflection skills to youth in order for them to reach greater self-actualization. The most important thing our youth can do, and often times the hardest, is to speak up about what has happened to them. Utilizing music interpretation, participants learn to recognize and understand the symptoms of the hardships and challenges that they may experience in life and thereby learn the self-control necessary to react in healthier ways. Students actively share their ideas, observations, and feelings. Because it is in speaking their truth and reaching out that they can connect with and learn to trust other people, FFLF believes that developing greater self-actualization is the essential ingredient for developing leadership abilities, resilience, and healing in our “at-risk” youth.

Like Building Dreams, R.A.P. is also an SEL program that helps students improve the following core competencies:

Self-Management
Self Awareness
Social Awareness
Responsible Decision Making
Relationship Skills

BE A BLESSING

Be A Blessing is an event-based program that provides holistic support to FFLF participant families. The goals are threefold: to reach out a hand to those in need, help to encourage children to stay on the right path, and to aid parents in providing for what their children need to be successful in life.

Each Year FFLF hosts program participants on field trips and Christmas that expose children to new environments, and memorable Holiday experiences for at least 725 children (K-5) that may not otherwise have one of these experiences.
