Expected Timelines and Deliverables 5 V. Selection Criteria 7 VI. Financial Proposal, Compensation, & Schedule of Payment 7 VII. How to Apply 8 I. Background Coach Across America is a national service program that uses youth-based sports as a platform to re-energize economically vulnerable communities. The program's theory of change posits that trained sports coaches are among the most effective role models in the lives of young people. Trained coaches can teach skills that lead to increases in physical activity and positive decision-making. Our evidence-based model, called sports-based youth development (SBYD), combines sports coaching and mentoring with positive youth development methodology to address some of the most persistent epidemics facing youth in urban communities across the United States. To achieve the intended impact, the Coach Program focuses on four key areas: (1) Engaging community-based organizations as host sites; (2) Recruiting adults from the local community to serve as AmeriCorps Coach-Mentors (ACM); (3) Training ACMs and their Host Site Supervisors in Sports-Based Youth Development (SBYD); and (4) Conducting SBYD activities that lead to healthier behaviors among youth and a service ethic among coaches. Through recruiting and training a national "coach force" composed entirely of ACMs, Coach Across America is able to expand access to recreational opportunities for youth and provide group and one-on-one mentoring to foster non-cognitive skills that lead to healthy decision making. The service role of ACMs produces significant contributions to existing efforts because the AmeriCorps service model of recruitment, training, programmatic support, service activities, and alumni support are excellent tools to empower ACMs with the social capital necessary to empower their community. II. Scope of the Study 2.1 Evaluation Objectives This mixed-methods study is being conducted in the second year of a 3-year AmeriCorps grant cycle for the Coach Across Americas Coach program. Through the use of qualitative and quantitative methods, the study aims to assess both program effectiveness and implementation, with the following specific objectives: • To examine the effects of participation in Program activities on youth outcomes, including social and emotional learning., • To assess coaches perceived impacts of the Program, including the quality of their relationships with youth., • To document program determinants, including barriers and facilitators to implementation. III. Study Methodology 3.1 Study Data Collection Plan We envision using a mixed-methods evaluation design that would include a combination of existing data collected through routine M&E processes and primary data through new, evaluation-specific data collection activities. We anticipate collecting data from coaches, youth participants, and host site partners. The consultant will analyze and report on all quantitative and qualitative data in collaboration with the Coach Across Americas RM&E team. All data collection activities will be conducted by Coach Across Americas staff. Raw, deidentified data will be provided to the consultant for analysis.
