| The
Pennsylvania Children Youth and Families Are Resilient (PA CYFAR)
program has been active since 1996. The primary goal of PA CYFAR
is to promote building resiliency and protective factors in youth,
families and communities. Youth Engaged in Technology is the current
PA CYFAR project that started in July 2003. The previous PA CYFAR
project was the State Strengthening Project and although extramural
funding has been discontinued, two sites are still operating.
PA CYFAR is funded
by The Cooperative State Research, Education, and Extension Service
(CSREES) through the national CYFAR Initiative. The National CYFAR
Initiative supports collaboration -- forming lasting partnerships
to achieve greater outcomes and to provide a support base for
sustaining programs beyond the initial funding.
The National CYFAR
Initiative’s vision is of American families and communities
in which children and youth lead positive, secure, and happy young
lives while developing the skills, knowledge, and competencies
necessary for fulfilling, contributing adult lives.
