Make a difference.  The Foundry Juvenile Court School is looking for
people with heart and soul who would be willing to volunteer their time
and knowledge in a program to help these teens get the vital reading and
math skills they need to survive.  We desperately need your time and your
knowledge to help teach a kid to read and or do simple math.  These are
the children who have been let down by our current system.  If given the
tools to think and learn they can become productive members of our
society.  The following is a profile on the school:

The Foundry was started in 1974 to service youngsters to reintegrate them
after a period of incarceration at Juvenile Hall, The Ranch or California
Youth Authority.  The Foundry serves as a stepping stone back into the
mainstream.  In 1976, The Foundry expanded its student population target
group to include not only law violators but neglected abused, and
beyond-control youngsters.  The Foundry plays a vital role in reshaping
teenage behavior through a well balanced approach that nurtures and
develops a youngster mentally, physically, socially and spiritually.  The
curriculum includes academic and dynamic fitness component, group and
family counseling.  The Foundry, the longest lasting community school in
the State of California, has for eighteen years dramatically proven a
school that concentrates on developing self-esteem through a participatory
student model will reduce recidivism or law violators.

If you or anyone you know is interested in volunteering your time and
