This report outlines the Bridgeport Futures Initiative, a collaborative project undertaken in 1990 by health, education, and social service organizations in Bridgeport, Connecticut, to improve the lives and educational outcomes of children and youth. The report discusses the origins of the initiative, as well as the cross-systems co-location case management model used to provide education, health, and human services to families in need. It also discusses the Strategic Intervention for High Risk Youth program, which is designed to provide prevention and intervention programs for young adolescents at risk of involvement with drugs and drug-related crime. The report includes a copy of the first annual "Bridgeport Report Card on the State of Our Children," which presents: (1) a demographic profile of children in Bridgeport and patterns of service utilization; (2) information on child and youth substance abuse, teenage pregnancy and health, education, and youth employment; and (3) the goals of the Bridgeport Oversight Collaborative to improve the lives of children and youth.
