“学生公平计划”为“青年培育计划”设定了以下预期成果:将课程完成率提高6%, increase basic skills course 完成 by 6%, increase degree/certificate 完成 by 3%, and increase transfer rates by 3%. 根据2013年秋季的数据，上述目标预计将在三年内实现. 该计划还希望看到寄养青年的基准平均绩点从1增加.6 to 2.0 over the same three year period. 另一个预期的结果是，由于外展和教育的努力，校园内的寄养青年人数会增加. 预计到2016年秋季，比特学院的寄养青年人数将增加25%.

激励学者计划的目标是提高校园寄养青年的坚持度和完成率. 我们也有兴趣通过帮助他们完成入学和注册过程，为寄养青年增加进入皇冠新现金网的机会.
Strategy 1 - Develop a Mentoring Program
Develop a mentoring program for foster youth
Mentoring has proven to have positive impacts on student outcomes including, 保留, 完成, 平均绩点, 毕业, 和转让. Most foster youth lack positive role models in their lives. 有一个导师来示范行为，导致在教育和/或就业目标的实现，将有助于提高我们的培养青年的教育成果，这将导致增加自尊, improved mental health and financial independence.
Strategy 2 - Operating Budget
Establish a budget for operating expenses
General office supplies are needed for staff; toner, 纸, 等. We also need a budget for postage, computer repairs, 等.
Strategy 3 - Increase Dedicated Academic Counseling to 23 Hours
目前，每周有8小时的学术顾问. This is insufficient to meet current student needs.
Dedicated academic counseling will hopefully lead to increase 保留, faster course 完成 and 毕业 rates, and a more meaningful college experience for foster youth at Butte College.
Strategy 4 - Summer Bridge for Foster Youth
我们想在2016年夏天开始为现在和以前的寄养青年创建一个专门的夏季桥梁项目.
Foster youth entering Butte College are apparently unprepared for college, as demonstrated by their academic outcomes. 研究发现，夏季桥梁项目对学生的学习成绩有显著的积极影响. 为寄养青年实施暑期桥项目将有助于实现学生平等目标以及皇冠新现金网的总体目标.
Strategy 5 - 供应 for Students
Purchase supplies and 学生读物 as needed.
Occasionally, students are in need of supplies to get started. 他们经常在没有任何资源的情况下使用，甚至没有开学所需的基本用品(笔), 笔用, 绑定, 纸, 背包). 因为他们的生活中可能没有人帮助他们为大学做准备, 或者他们因为转学而错过了高中的助学金活动, their financial aid is not ready when school begins. For this reason, it would also be helpful to have funding for books. While we strive to get them connected to all resources available, 他们在第一学期并不总是有参加EOPS项目所需的单元，所以他们没有书本资源.
Strategy 6 - Hire a Program Assistant or Special Programs Clerk
聘请一名全职项目助理或特别项目办事员来监督项目的扩展.
鼓舞人心的学者 has grown tremendously since being established in October 2014. The program has seen nearly 100 more students taking advantage of program offerings. 另外, 许多社区成员现在正在寻求帮助，将现在和以前的寄养青年与皇冠新现金网联系起来. 学生需求的增长对目前的人员配备来说是一个挑战——一个全职项目协调员和一个兼职秘书. 另外, 该项目计划在未来一年大幅扩展，创建一个指导项目, 夏季桥牌项目, and increases in 外展 and recruitment. 需要一个全职的项目助理来协助协调和监督这些新项目, 随着学生和社区成员的需求预计将持续增长.
Strategy 7 - Increase Program Secretary's Hours
将秘书的工作时间从每周24小时增加到32小时，每年从10个月增加到11个月.

Strategy 8 - Hire 学生助理
Hire two student assistants for a total of 30 hours per week.
The Program Coordinator position is only 24 hours per week. It is important to have someone in the department at all times. He is expected to participate in management activities, 外展, 帮助, 校外培训, events offered by the funders, 等. 让学生在自习室工作将是非常有帮助的，也有利于学生自己. The student assistants would also serve as ambassadors for the program.
