NOBLE Youth Initiative 2008

7th Annual NOBLE Youth Leadership Conference Marriott Marquis -Times Square New York, New York July 27-30, 2008 Leadership: Unleashing the Power From Within

INVESTING IN THE FUTURE OF YOUTH

THE NOBLE YOUTH INITIATIVE Since the inception of the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE), it has enjoyed an excellent reputation in law enforcement training. NOBLE recognized a need for a youth component to the annual conference. The organization wanted to add an educational component to the youth activities during the annual conferences, as well as enhance its long standing devotion to community. To that end, the NOBLE Youth Initiative was developed. Thei ni t i at i ve’ sgoalwast o capitalize on the same training concepts that made the annual NOBLE conferences successful, such as quality speakers and offering timely and relevant subject matter related to law enforcement issues. The NOBLE Youth Conference was developed to offer an expanded and robust schedule to the youth activities. The participants not only include the offspring of NOBLE conference registrants, but young people who reside in the communities in and around the conference location. The target age of the NOBLE Youth Initiative is 13-18.

The NOBLE Youth Initiative, since 2002, has touched the lives of young people in Tampa, Florida; Tulsa, Oklahoma; Dallas, Texas; Atlanta, Georgia; Cincinnati, Ohio; and in July 2007, the NOBLE Youth Conference was held in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.

At the conferences, the youth participants develop projects to be initiated in their communities. The participants gain an understanding of leadership ideals and practices, and learn the nature and purpose of leadership through community service and project development.

In 2006, Hill Harper, actor and author, was ushered in as the NOBLE Yout hI ni t i at i ve’ sf i r stHonor ar ySpokesper son. Mr .Har perwasi n attendance at the conference and spoke to the youth participants about his career and his book, Letters to a Young Brother: MANifest Your Destiny.

The 6th Annual NOBLE Youth Conference was held in Fort Lauderdale, Fl or i dai nJ ul y2007,wher eSet hGi l l i am f r om HBO’ sThe Wire and Law and Order: Criminal Intent served as the 2007 NOBLE Youth Initiative Honorary Spokesperson. Mr. Gilliam discussed his upcoming acting roles and the overall strategy of his acting career.

The vision of the NOBLE Youth Initiative is to prepare youth to assume leadership roles in their communities and to maximize the opportunity for youth to develop their full potential. This initiative: Exposes youth to various educational components; Develops life skills and build character; Develops leadership skills; Enhances communication skills while educating youth about law enforcement issues; Increases knowledge and skill levels; and Instills a sense of community pride.

COMPONENTS OF THE NOBLE YOUTH INITIATIVE The ANNUAL NOBLE YOUTH CONFERENCE The NOBLE Youth Initiative convenes an annual youth conf er encei nconj unct i onwi t hNOBLE’ sannualnat i onalt r ai ni ng of law enforcement executives. The concept of the annual Youth Conference was born out of a need to affect change in young people and to enhance community relationships between minority youth and public safety organizations by increasing awareness, appreciation, and career interest in public safety. In addition, the conference was instituted to educate young people on how to meet challenges and develop leadership skills through an exciting action-oriented curriculum.

The conference aims to expose youth to the many critical issues faced by law enforcement in combating crime and promoting public safety, while introducing youth to ways to prepare themselves for successful leadership careers in law enforcement and other occupations. The conference is utilized as a mechanism through which young people can learn skills common to effective leaders. The NOBLE Youth Initiative believes that young people who have the desire to be leaders can excel if given a chance with exposure to skills and concepts. During this conference, participants learn to assess their strengths and weaknesses, develop strategic plans, collect and analyze data, set goals and communicate effectively to build networks.

The participants are engaged in workshops, such as:  The Law and You  Entrepreneurship  Community advocacy and service  How to obtain scholarships  Leadership development The NOBLE Youth Initiative utilizes a non-competitive application process, which includes the submission of an essay.

Young people are assured a slot in the conference as funding is available. The inclusion of an essay in the application process emphasizes the importance of writing skills, which is an avenue to better grades and academic achievement. NOBLE ensures participants are exercising their writing skills in preparation for the SAT, as well as for the college and scholarship application process.

In order to recruit young people to participate in the conference, NOBLE has cultivated relationships with numerous youth oriented national programs throughout the country. In addition to conference site youth oriented organizations, other partnerships include the Tavis Smiley Foundation, National Urban League, National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and the Boys and Girls Clubs of America.

PARTNERSHIPS THE LAW AND YOU In a collaborative effort, the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, Allstate Insurance Company, and NOBLE has joined together to develop The Law and You: Guidelines for Interacting with Law Enforcement Officials. This is a nationally recognized training for young people designed to improve their communication with law enforcement officers.

THE TAVIS SMILEY FOUNDATION The partnership between NOBLE and the Tavis Smiley Foundation was developed because of a shared commitment to prepare youth to assume leadership roles in their communities. In J ul y2002,NOBLE’ sNat i onal Training and Exhibition Conference held its first youth conference with youth presenters who completed leadership training provided by the Tavis Smiley Foundation. This partnership continues as youth leaders are identified and trained by the foundation to improve and advance their training at the annual youth conference.

PRINCETON REVIEW In partnership with the Princeton Review, NOBLE sponsors students to participate in the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) preparation courses. The cost associated with the SAT preparation has discouraged students from seeking better scores, or has simply discouraged students from taking the test. SAT preparation is featured during the NOBLE Youth Conference in conjunction with the Princeton Review.

FEDERAL DEPOSIT INSURANCE CORPORATION Many young people are unskilled in managing personal finances, yet this crucial life skill will greatly affect their economic well-being. It is essential for young people to possess a basic understanding of banking products and services, of savings and the importance of good credit. In partnership with the FDIC, it presents various modules of its Money Smart Financial Education Program.

Scripps Howard News Service for July 19, 2005

By Martin Schram They are African-American teens, more than 100 of them, many from tough places, facing tough times and tougher choices. They plan to slip into downtown Atlanta this weekend. And the cops and the FBI are on the case -planning in-your-face surveillance from the get-go.

Bu tdon ’ tr ush home to catch the clash on your favorite 24/7 cable TV news network. For this is the sort of news story that usually slips under the radar of my print and electronic media colleagues. It is about good news.

Noble news.

NOBLE -- the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives -- is holding its 29th convention in Atlanta this week. For the fourth straight year, a NOBLE Youth conference is planned. Top cops and others will run workshops on how African-American youths can break the traps of their circumstances and forge promising futures. Sessions range from motivational to practical -- the Princeton Review runs a workshop on how to prepare for SATs. Th epr og r a ms t a r t e da sj u s ta ne x pe r i me n tbyNOBLE’ st h e n-president, Police Chief Leonard Cooke of Portsmouth, VA, and FBI special agent Rhonda Glover. When no one volunteered to run it, Glover did, in her spare time, on a shoestring budget aided by modest money from a few foundation and corporate pockets. Yet it has produced first-person results that are hopeful, even heartwarming. “ I tt a u gh tme… h owt oh e l pot h e r s-- h own ott oj u s ts i tbya n dl e tt h i ng sh a ppe n , ”s a y sDenisha Malveaux, 17, ofTe x a r k a n a ,Ar k . ,wh owa sc h os e nbyal oc a lof f i c i a lt oa t t e n dl a s ty e a r ’ sc on f e r e n c ei nDa l l a s .Sh e says she learned that young African-Ame r i c a n sc a n“ dobe t t e rt h i ng sot h e rt h a nj u s twa s t i n gt h e i rl i f ea wa y . ”Sh e pa u s e s ,t h e na ddss of t l y :“ Ia l s ol e a r n e dh owt ol ov emy s e l f . ” Tog r a s pt h ef u l lme a ni ngofDe n i s h a ’ swor ds ,un de r s t a n dwhe r es h ei sc omi ngf r om:“ I nmyr e a l i t y ,t h e r e are a lot of bad influences where I live in Texarkana.

THE HISTORY OF NOBLE

The critically high rate of violence in neighborhoods of the nation=s cities in 1976 prompted top-ranking black law enforcement executives to gather as a symposium about urban crime. These officials understood that the participation of minority law enforcement officials in initiatives that reduce crime and enhance the delivery of police services was vital.

The deliberations at the symposium accented the relationship

between socioeconomic conditions and criminal activity as well as the leadership that black police officials have to offer communities.

Recognizing that black law

enforcement executives could have more of an impact on the criminal justice system through a unified voice, participants called upon the occasion to create the National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives (NOBLE). NOBLE marshals the experience and expertise of federal, state, and local black law enforcement officers, not only at executive and command levels, but throughout all levels of our policing agencies with responsibility for the safety and welfare of urban communities.

Its

mission is to promote a holistic community-wide approach to the reduction of crime and delinquency. We are committed to the establishment and implementation of effective programs that increase diversity throughout all levels of law enforcement.

NOBLE

conducts research and training in a wide array of areas, but gives particular focus to issues which affect minority communities and minority law enforcement officers and agents. Priorities of the organization include the opening of channels of communication between law enforcement agencies and bridge building with community organizations.

NOBLE also serves as a forum for the exchange of views about law enforcement issues and the role black law enforcement executives can play in the promotion and preservation of fairness in the administration of justice.

MISSION STATEMENT To ensure equity in the administration of justice in the provision of public service to all communities, and to serve as the conscience of law enforcement by being committed to justice by action.

VISION STATEMENT The goal of NOBLE is to be recognized as a highly competent, public service organization that is at the forefront of providing solutions to law enforcement issues and concerns, as well as to the ever-changing needs of our communities.
