The Coeur d'Alene Tribe is one of five federally recognized tribes in Idaho. The Tribe will provide prevention services to impact risk factors for delinquency and will provide intervention for court-involved tribal youth. Services will be provided to the target population of 379 youth ages 6 to 18 years. The tribe will provide year-round after school and summer programming at the wellness center, community center and two satellite facilities. The After-School and Peer Mentoring Program provides closely supervised and monitored physical and educational activities for voluntary enrollees and those assigned by the Court to perform community service by working with the participating youth. The educational component focuses on the prevention of alcohol, tobacco and other drug use.
