> > CITY COUNCIL, YEARS >> AGO, PARTICULARLY UP IN THE INTERCITIES, YOU HAD A GREAT DEAL OF THE YOUNG MALES AND FEMALES TYPE OF AROUND, NOT KNOWLEDGEABLE, NOT TRAINED. THE FEDERAL FEDERAL GOVERNMENT PUMPED >> A GREAT DEAL OF DOLLARS REALLY INTO THESE CITIES AND THE CITIES ALSO GOT SEVERAL OF THEIR OWN LOCA DOLLARS. THOSE DOLLARS WERE USED TO TRAI A GREAT DEAL OF YOUR YOUNG MALES AS WELL AS LADIES. AS WELL AS I MYSELF– REALLY COUPLE OF INDIVIDUALS KNOW THIS, I WILL ALLOW THIS CAT OUT OF THE BAG– I AM LIKEWISE A GRADUATE OF TASK CORP. JOB CORP CONSERVED ME. IF I DID NOT MOST LIKELY TO WORK CORP, I MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE ENDED UP I PRISON. I WAS ABLE TO OBTAIN THE KIND OF TRAINING AND NOT SIMPLY EDUCATIONAL TRAINING, BUT SOCIAL TRAINING, HOW TO ACT AND ALSO HOW TO ACT. IT WAS A RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM THAT YOUTHFUL INDIVIDUALS COULD DISAPPEAR AND ALSO OBTAIN TRAINING IN COLLEGE, COLLEGE TRAINING, DEAL WITH THEIR G.E.D.OR WHATEVER. ONE POINT I OBSERVED IN DURHAM, THAT IS LACKING, IS A RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM FOR OUR YOUNG GUYS AND ALSO LADIES WHO FALL WITH THE SPLITS. THEY MAY NOT HAVE A PARENT OR ADULT TO ENABLE THEM TO, EQUIPMENT OR STEER THEM IN PROPERLY. WHAT OCCURRED TO ME? MY MOTHER WAS A TEEN AGER WHEN SHE HAD ME AS WELL AS I WAS INCREASED IN THE FOSTER TREATMENT SYSTEM FOR 15 YEARS. BUT THE SYSTEM THAT I REMAINED IN WAS VERY ABUSIVE. SO I STARTED TO REBEL. WHAT I WOULD DO IS RUN AWAY FROM HOME AS WELL AS OBTAIN IN TROUBLE. I WASSA I YOUNG PERSON WITH A GREAT DEAL OF CONCERNS. IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD, I SEE A GREAT DEAL OF THAT. A SEE A LONG OF OUR YOUTHFUL INDIVIDUALS WHERE I LIVE, I CAN GET UP THE CENTER OF THE NIGHT, KEEP AN EYE OUT M DOOR AND SEE
YOUNG PEOPLE STROLLING UP AND ALSO DOWN THE STREET ON RIDGEWAY, BECAUSE THEY ' RE LEAVING SEVERAL OF THE LOCATIONS. THESE YOUTH REQUIRED SOME SKILLS. I THINK WHAT OUR FEDERAL GOVERNMENT REQUIRES TO DO– WE OBTAIN A GREAT DEAL OF MONIES FROM THE FEDS, WHICH ' GOOD. WE DO NOT HAVE AN RECURRING TRAINING PROGRAM, A 24-HOUR TRAINING PROGRAM. WE HAVE ESTABLISHED HOPE SCHOOL. THEY HAVE A GREAT DEAL OF HOME. SOMEONE NEEDS TO GET OUT THERE AND ALSO CONSTRUCT A DOFRM OF'– DORMITORY. I ' M NOT CLAIMING ONLY THE CITY NEEDS TO DO IT. BUT WE HAVE CHURCHES AS WELL AS NOT FO EARNINGS IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD, THAT CAN GET TOGETHER, IF THERE ARE DOLLARS OUT BELOW. SOMEBODY NEEDS TO PUT IN DOLLARS. WE HAVE ALLOWED SOMEONE TO BUILD'A DORM NEARBY.
THAT IS BASICALLY WHAT IT IS [BEEP] THROUGHOUT THE ROAD FROM THE POLICE HEADQUARTERS. IT WILL CERTAINLY RESIDENCE A GREAT DEAL OF YOUTHFUL INDIVIDUALS. POOR YOUNGSTERS NEED THAT SAME THING, BESIDES THE UNIVERSITY CHILDREN, OUR POOR KIDS THAT FAIL THE CRACKS IN THIS NEIGHBORHOOD, THEY REQUIRED HOUSING, THEY NEED JOB TRAINING AND ALSO THEY NEED THEIR EDUCATION. I REALLY HOPE WE CONTAINER DIRECT SEVERAL OF TH DOLLARS FOR JOB TRAINING FOR SOME KIND OF RESIDENTIAL PROGRA IN THE FUTURE. YOU DON ' T HAVE TO BEGINNING WITH A RESIDENTIAL PROGRAM AT FIRST, BUT YOU CONTAINER HAVE SOME TYPE OF JOB TRAINING PROGRAM RIGHT HERE IN DURHAM. DURHAM DOESN ' T REALLY HAVE THAT. > >'THANK YOU, MS. PETERSON. LET ME, AND ALSO ARE THERE OTHERS THAT WANT TO SPEAK ON THIS ITEM? THIS BEING A PUBLIC HEARING? OTHERWISE, I WILL SHUT THE PUBLIC HEARING. I'WOULD LIKE TO GET A FOLLOW-UP TO THE INQUIRIES RAISED BY MR. BYNUM. I DON ' T KNOW IF YOU CAN DO IT THIS EVENING, IF YOU CONTAINER DO IT IN IF TIME FOR THE WORKSESSION ON THURSDAY. WHATEVER IS APPROPRIATE.
