The SOS Program
The SOS Program provides options for disadvantaged youth and young adults of all ethnicities and backgrounds who have completed high school but have limited skills to obtain living wage jobs. The program is intended to give these out-of-school youth the skills, job training or retraining, technical assistance, career counseling and work experience they need in order to secure full time employment in one of San Bernardino County’s fastest growing industries–Transportation and Logistics.

Charting impact
Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.
What is the organization aiming to accomplish?
Young Visionaries Youth Leadership Academy will spend the next year building a strong,
committed and active leadership team with representatives from the board, the staff, and key
volunteer members within the organization. Initial steps involve recruiting a team, orienting
them to the sustainability plan, and developing a subcommittee to work on the implementation
goals.
What are the organization's key strategies for making this happen?
Young Visionaries Youth Leadership Academy will work towards developing a thriving volunteer
engagement component of organizational services and operations. This will be accomplished by
conducting a thorough assessment of organizational volunteer needs, and developing the
systems to support volunteer recruitment, retention, and recognition activities.

- We review compensation data across the organization (and by staff levels) to identify disparities by race.
- We ask team members to identify racial disparities in their programs and / or portfolios.
- We analyze disaggregated data and root causes of race disparities that impact the organization's programs, portfolios, and the populations served.
- We disaggregate data to adjust programming goals to keep pace with changing needs of the communities we support.
- We employ non-traditional ways of gathering feedback on programs and trainings, which may include interviews, roundtables, and external reviews with/by community stakeholders.
- We disaggregate data by demographics, including race, in every policy and program measured.
- We use a vetting process to identify vendors and partners that share our commitment to race equity.
- We have a promotion process that anticipates and mitigates implicit and explicit biases about people of color serving in leadership positions.
- We seek individuals from various race backgrounds for board and executive director/CEO positions within our organization.
- We have community representation at the board level, either on the board itself or through a community advisory board.
- We help senior leadership understand how to be inclusive leaders with learning approaches that emphasize reflection, iteration, and adaptability.
- We measure and then disaggregate job satisfaction and retention data by race, function, level, and/or team.
- We engage everyone, from the board to staff levels of the organization, in race equity work and ensure that individuals understand their roles in creating culture such that one’s race identity has no influence on how they fare within the organization.
