BACKGROUND AND GOALS. The Oregon Open Learning Hub (“the Hub”) was launched May 2020, during emergency school closures related to the COVID-19 pandemic. The Hub is intended to encourage collaboration and resource sharing among educators in Oregon, both during the pandemic and beyond. This grant project has been designed to leverage OER and the Hub to better serve Oregon’s students. By analyzing traditional data (i.e., state assessment) and incorporating anecdotes and experience, we know that students who are emergent bilingual are largely underserved throughout the state. This project aims to provide equitable access to high quality materials for educators, school staff, and other education partners. We believe this is an opportunity to provide professional learning and begin building partnerships that lead to the development of sharable, high quality materials that center students who are emergent bilingual. Using the Hub and OER to share the products of this work means that the reach will spread beyond the educators who participate in this grant project. Resources identified as high quality through this process will be shared and highlighted on the Hub for all educators across the state to access and use with their students. Resources can also easily be shared across the nation, allowing Oregon to share with and benefit from national workgroups. The 2021-22 OER Development Grant: Supporting Students who are Emergent Bilingual (“the OER Development Grant Project”) is an eight-month long project which will include three (3) Phases. In Phase One of this Project, participants will learn about OER, the Oregon Open Learning Hub (“the Hub”), Oregon’s collaboration space and repository for K-12 OER, and strategies that support students who are emergent bilingual and how these strategies can be included in OER. Additionally, they will select an OER lesson or lessons to revise to include strategies that support students who are emergent bilingual. Phase Two of this Project will focus on piloting the resources with students, and Phase Three will include a final evaluation of the resources revised throughout this process.
BACKGROUND AND GOALS. The Envision Route 7 project, which is generally described in the Route 7 Corridor Transit Study Final Report (January 2017), incorporated herein by reference the “Envision Route 7 Project”, recently completed the Envision Route 7 Phase III Conceptual Engineering Study. The key findings Envision Route 7 Phase IV‐1 Mobility Analysis Study Memorandum of Agreement May 3, 2021 from the study to date are that a Bus Rapid Transit (“BRT”) along Route 7 from Mark Center to Tysons, via the East Falls Church Xxxxx Xxxxxxx is a viable transit solution for the corridor, generally described as the “Corridor”, providing added connectivity and multimodal choices. The key activities in the preceding efforts were to estimate the potential demand and forecast the ridership, compare possible alternative modes, determine possible funding mechanisms and strategies, define the right of way, identify guideway needs, and provide a cost estimate for both capital and operating cost. The BRT showed high demand across all trip purposes. The service would benefit not only commuters with key connections to Mark Center, Tysons, and Metro; but serve other trip purposes including shopping and recreational trips. The travel demand forecast showed approximately two‐thirds of the new riders traveling for non‐work purposes. The Phase II Study focused on determining which mode best serves the Corridor, and if and where the BRT should deviate from Route 7. Following the Phase II study, NVTC conducted a conceptual engineering study (the “Envision Route 7 Phase III Planning Level Conceptual Engineering Study”). The conceptual engineering study helped to refine the project cost, identified potential areas of concern, developed a potential staging strategy, and provided guidance on preserving the required right‐of‐way. This study identified right‐of‐way that could be utilized by the BRT and provides a guide for jurisdictions in their subarea and sector planning. The next step on the Envision Route 7 Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) project will be Phase IV‐1 study. The overall objective of the Phase IV‐1 Mobility Analysis Study is to evaluate and determine the mobility benefits and impacts resulting from the proposed BRT from Tysons to Seven Corners. This effort will require the development of a traffic micro‐simulation model. FCDOT has already developed a model from Tysons to the City of Falls Church. This effort will take the model files and add approximately 3.5 miles onto the current network. The Entiti...
BACKGROUND AND GOALS. The mission of Agency’s Oregon Youth Conservation Corps (“OYCC”) is empowering youth by providing outdoor work and stewardship experiences throughout Oregon. OYCC has responsibility for implementing ORS 418.650 through 418.663, the general purposes of which are: To establish a disadvantaged and at-risk youth work program in order to perform conservation work of public value in the most cost-effective manner; To utilize such a program as a means of needed assistance to protect, conserve, rehabilitate and improve the natural, historical and cultural resources of the state; and To utilize such a program to increase educational, training and employment opportunities for disadvantaged and at-risk youth for the purpose of improving work skills, instilling a work ethic and increasing employability. OYCC’s vision is that Oregon’s at-risk youth are successful community members engaged in work, stewardship, and lifelong learning. Therefore, the intent of an OYCC grant is to fund local, community-oriented projects that are administered by local programs and employ local youth. Grantee has applied for an OYCC grant to provide funding for the Project(s) more specifically described in Exhibit B.
BACKGROUND AND GOALS. This agreement is to establish goals for treatment with opioids so that we can balance pain management with safety concerns. The goals of this treatment are to improve your quality of life and ability to function in your daily activities. If these goals are not met, or if the side effects outweigh the benefits, my clinician will stop this treatment and look for alternatives.
BACKGROUND AND GOALS. YDO serves as a state designated agency for Title II Formula Grants Funds. House Bill 3231 of the 2013 Legislative Session established the Youth Development Division (“YDD”) within the Oregon Department of Education, under the direction of the YDC. YDO coordinates an aligned system of service for resilient yet vulnerable youth. YDO administers both state general funding and federal funds through strategic investments in a variety of community-based youth development programs and services designed to serve these youth populations effectively. Oregon’s three-year plan for comprehensive juvenile justice and delinquency prevention programs are developed to meet the needs of youth through the collaboration of the many local systems before which a youth may appear, including schools, courts, law enforcement agencies, child protection agencies, mental health agencies, welfare services, healthcare agencies, and private nonprofit agencies offering youth services. Alternatives to detention and placement programs invest in community-based alternatives to incarceration and institutionalization for youth to improve outcomes for these youth and reduce subsequent referrals. Additionally, our intent is to impact racial and ethnic disparities, and improve equity for all youth concerns. YDO supports culturally specific community-based programs and services to work with youth to expand their services which will include families and other positive, supportive adults.
