Johnson O'Malley Program Evaluation. 1984-85.
Zastrow, Leona; Johns, Jennifer S.
The Johnson O'Malley (JOM) Program for 1984-1985 in the Albuquerque (New Mexico) Public Schools provided the 1,622 eligible JOM students and their parents with the opportunity to receive supplemental counseling, support services, and information through newsletters. Six high schools and two junior high schools with sizable eligible JOM student population were chosen for supplemental counseling. Six certified counselors were hired to provide supplemental counseling. All counselors were supervised by the District Coordinator of Indian Education. Supplemental counseling helped students accomplish specific competencies. Four problem-solving programs were developed to help students in the areas of drugs and alcoholism, personal and social problems, leadership, and parental involvement. A directory of resources was compiled listing agencies for referral. Students were provided support services for obtaining school supplies and participating in school activities. Parents were informed about the program activities and services through a series of six newsletters. Program achievement was evaluated in terms of seven objectives. Twelve recommendations are offered for continued improvement. (JHZ)
