ACCELERATING THE VELOCITY OF MASTERY The void separating an interest in a particular career path and having mastery of it has been expressed as 10,000 hours (irrespective of one’s innate talents) of deliberate time invested in real world business practices. This summer it will be possible to accelerate the mastery clock and gain a level of expertise in a few days that will take others many of those 10,000 hours to acquire. THE KEY Worldwide is offering unique access to the leaders of in-demand industry sectors this summer. The short, but intense courses will give the student an opportunity to immerse themselves in their potential career interest, discover the real-world workings of that sector, integrate what they have learned with other business sectors that complement their new mastery and work in tandem with other students and experts to produce an annual 5K philanthropic event. The popular business sectors offered this summer will be: Event Management, Philanthropy, Sports Management, Public Relations & Advertising, Music Performance and Marketing, Government Service, Community Service, Fashion and Merchandising and Digital Media and Entertainment. If we do become what we think, and acknowledge the clock is running, then now is the time to accelerate the velocity of your thinking.


One step at a time

1736 Family Crisis Center provides the way out and a complete integrated resource to handle crisis, and to create long term recovery and hope. The Center’s five 24-Hour Suicide and Crisis Hotlines take in children, teens, adults, pregnant girls and women, and families, every hour, however severe the crisis. Five shelters throughout Los Angeles County give a roof, food, protection, clothes, 24-hour protection, and

step-by-step professional guidance to combat abuse, homelessness, poverty, mental illness, and strain. Newborns start fresh lives in the Center’s shelters rather than on the streets or in violent life-threatening homes. Teens and children of all ages are heard. Their voices count. New strategies are learned for anger response and healthy interaction with family and society. The philosophy is one of respect, human

empowerment, and finding the tools to take a stand for a life of health, achievement, safety, economic viability, and purpose. In addition to 1736 Family Crisis Center’s five shelters and 24Hour response lines and stations throughout Los Angeles County, the Center operates three Community Service Centers for the general community in need, and extensive

5K

The Key and 1736 Family Crisis Center have launched a powerful collaborative to blend the talents, life experiences, and creative insights of youth from diverse backgrounds in order to build futures, conceptualized by and for tomorrow’s leaders, role models, and citizens in our society. Side by side, as friends and equals, children think, find solutions, and create change, regardless of their individual backgrounds of homelessness, abuse, neglect, or functional upbringings. Following a week this summer of intensive team building, the children will discover their commonalities while creating and producing 1736 Family Crisis Centers first Annual 5k Run and Concert, with proceeds to benefit the shelters and support programs of 1736 Family Crisis Center and to help in establishing the Center’s ninth and tenth service locations in Los Angeles County. Successful participants will receive invitation to the prestigious “1736 Young Leadership Board,” a segue to many future chances to participate in citizenship, volunteering, campaigns for youth and families, local/ national/global youth policy matters, future expanded leadership and study opportunities, entrepreneurial programs to think out-of-the-box and build careers and futures, and hands-on comprehensive help for those who critically need it. 1736 Family Crisis Center established in 1972 and believes that a healthy future for our society, free of homeless, abuse, joblessness, and despair, can and will stem from the harnessed energy, brilliance, creative vision, and actions of today’s dedicated youth.

David Kelley, founder of legendary design firm IDEO, built the company that created many icons of the digital generation – the first mouse, the first Treo, the thumbs up/thumbs down button on your Tivo’s remote control, to name a few. But what matters even more to him is unlocking the creative potential of people and organizations so they can innovate routinely. David Kelley’s most enduring contributions to the field of design are a methodology and culture of innovation.

3, Every year, thousands of children, women, men, and families who have fallen victim to abuse, abandonment, poverty and homelessness receive nurturing care from 1736 Family Crisis Center and are given a chance to start anew. The individual stories of abuse are graphic, sickening, and difficult to comprehend, yet they keep occurring at alarming rates. National averages show that four people die at the hands domestic partners every day. Domestic violence ties to disease, mental illness including for the children, economic crisis, suicide, homicide, and enormous personal, community, and economic toll. Often hidden, and broadly underreported in California and throughout the nation,

6 3 Suicide is the third leading cause of death among teens in the United States, triggered by social pressure, school stress, family stress, depression, hopelessness, rape, child abuse and neglect, domestic violence, bullying, and feelings that no one will understand, that there is no one to talk to. Several hundred thousand teens report being raped each year; 84% know their attackers, 57% happen while on dates; 16% are stranger rapes. Dropout rates are staggering and are tied to such youth challenges as well. 36% of the reported 3,030,000 U.S. kids who drop out of high school in a year are in the ninth grade.

victims come from every socio-economic class, walk of life, religion, race, and culture. Family violence kills. It is intergenerational, for both girls and boys. 85% of the 1.3 conservatively estimated victims of serious physical assault by a family member in a year are women. Boys who witness violence in the home are twice as likely to abuse their children or partners when they grow up, unless interrupted by programs like those of 1736 Family Crisis Center.

The No. 1 and No. 2 causes of women's deaths during pregnancy in the U.S. are Domestic Homicide and Suicide. Published estimates show 254,000 homeless in Los Angeles County in a year with 82,000 homeless on any given night, with up to 43% being children accompanied by a mother or completely alone. Police, hospitals, and hotlines see millions of cases each year from victims who are facing life and death situations. Local statistics are among the highest anywhere.
