Davis-Monthan Air Force Base Summer Youth Program, 1972.
Strategic Air Command (Air Force), Davis-Monthan AFB, AZ. Combat Support Group (803d).
The 1972 Summer Youth Employment Program, sponsored by Davis-Monthan Air Force Base in Arizona, included 596 youngsters, of whom 377 belonged to the Neighborhood Youth Corps, 130 more were economically disadvantaged, and 48 were American Indian students employed by the base. A wide range of government, industrial, and educational institutions supported this vocational development program by providing funds, practicum counselors and vocational counselors, school buses, and other services. The work experience proved highly successful, due to the encouragement of the work-coordinators and counselors and the use of such techniques as resource speakers, peer tutoring, a refresher course in typing, and drug education instruction. Special-education students were included in this program, which was evaluated by means of questionnaires for supervisors. Various program forms are appended. (AG)
