Director's Gratitude On behalf of Kodiak College and the students who benefit from JumpStart funding, I present this report with my deepest gratitude to you for your funding support for the 2023/2024 year. Your investment in JumpStart not only enriches the lives of our students but also strengthens our community as a whole. Your financial support for college education on this island and commitment to empowering individuals through that funding is a critical part of the student experience at Kodiak College. With your support, we can continue to provide vital resources and opportunities for our students, enabling them to pursue their academic and career goals with confidence. The impact of your contribution reaches far beyond the classroom, laying the foundation for a brighter future for Kodiak Island. Your belief in our mission fuels our determination to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those we serve. As you have heard from several JumpStart recipients over the course of the last weeks and months, it also drives them forward towards completion of their education goals. Once again, thank you for your support of the JumpStart program. We hope we can count on you for continuing our partnership and creating even greater opportunities for our students in the years to come. Warm Regards, Jacelyn Keys, Kodiak College Director Background Kodiak College sits on the unceded, ancestral lands of the Alutiiq/Sugpiaq people. Kodiak College (KoC), is a community college campus nested within the framework of its Major Academic Unit (MAU), the University of Alaska Anchorage (UAA), in Alaska's statewide university system. Kodiak Island is accessible only by plane or ship, making travel off -island expensive and virtually inaccessible for many island residents. Kodiak sports only 70 miles of paved or hard packed gravel roads. Seven remote villages, six of which are accessible only by small plane or boat combined with the city of Kodiak, the population hub of the island, form a borough of approximately 13,000 residents, making it the 7th most populous borough in Alaska. Kodiak is a commercial fishing town - a blue-collar community where private -sector employment, mostly in the seafood industry, accounts for 75% of jobs. Kodiak's remoteness creates problems of isolation. Internet access is impacted by limited infrastructure and high cost. In the state of Alaska, rural public education is weakened by isolation, high turnover of teachers, lack of access to mental health care, cultural dysphoria and the resulting generational trauma. Despite the struggles, Kodiak College serves as a critical access point to higher education Page 10 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. opportunities that change the narrative for individuals, our island community, and expand beyond our shores to change our state. At Kodiak College, students and community members work with caring, committed staff dedicated to their success. They have access to state-of-the-art learning labs, curricula that meet industry standards, and exceptional faculty members who are leaders in their disciplines. Small class sizes ensure a personalized student experience and support that help students navigate the collegiate environment and achieve success. At Kodiak College we invite you to Stay Close and Go Far! Accomplishments This section outlines the accomplishments KoC achieved with the 2023-2024 Kodiak Island Borough. A brief overview of each program is presented along with student testimonials. JumpStart JumpStart funds are used for the success of first time college students who are residents of the Kodiak Island Borough taking courses at Kodiak College. This encourages enrollment at Kodiak College and ensures support levels are in place that help students make progress towards achieving their post -secondary academic and workforce training goals. Under JumpStart, students earn credits at a reduced rate of $100 per credit for tuition.. With the additional funding provided by the Borough, JumpStart was increased to $77,818.25 this year. Whereas we normally can only offer JumpStart to students who start in the Fall Semester, we now have the ability to offer it to students in any of the three semesters they start. We can also provide funding for their entire first year of school. This is critical in giving students the opportunity to make good progress towards degree or certification completion. Many KIBSD high school and KIB homeschool students also benefit from the dual support of KoC and KIBSD's Early Middle College and concurrent enrollment for college classes. High school students do not qualify for federal financial aid as many of our post -secondary students do. If they meet the requirements of KoC and KIBSD, these students may enroll in up to six credits each semester. StepUp With funding from the Borough in the 23-24 year, we were able to continue to extend funds to residents of the Kodiak Island Borough taking classes from Kodiak College who were experiencing housing and food insecurity as well as those not eligible for any other financial resources through the StepUp program. This funding allows us to extend to students who are stepping up to the plate to start their education, continue their education, or who run into unexpected challenges, a helping hand and a StepUp. Page 11 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. This funding is available to help students who do not qualify for financial aid or want to take more classes but cannot afford to work less due to their circumstances. StepUp students who do not qualify for financial aid must meet the following benchmarks in order to be eligible for funding in future semesters: • Submit a financial aid appeal (if eligible) • Apply for scholarships that can supplement StepUp funding (e.g. Student Emergency Fund and the Rotary Scholarship) • Successfully complete all courses in which they are enrolled • Maintain a 2.5 semester GPA • Follow academic advising recommendations (tracked in Degree Works) • Participate in Student Coaching or take UNIV A150 or both as recommended by an academic advisor • Complete the FAFSA, UAOnline Scholarship, and Kodiak Foundation Scholarship as practice and possible funding outside the federal funding Additionally, wrap-around supports can be set in place to create access to college. Those supports could include but are not limited to: • Gas cards • Taxi vouchers • Walmart and Safeway gift cards to support basic needs • Additional expenditures of support must be approved by the Director. Student Testimonials Here are a few messages from students who were recipients of funding this year. How have you benefited from the JumpStart program at Kodiak College? Student One: Jumpstart has helped me pay my first semester of college and relieve the financial stress that came especially as a first year student. Student Two: I was able to attend this semester for free due to my scholarships and JumpStart, reducing financial strain on my family. Student Three: It has allowed me to continue my education while working full time as well as living on my own. This program has been an amazing opportunity to further my education and have a better all around knowledge as well as be the first person in my family to earn a degree. Student Four: As a working student, the program has helped me to get through my college financial problems. I grew up with a family who has financial difficulties, but my parents really wanted me to go to college. The program is helping me through college and fulfill my dreams to graduate college. Page 12 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. Student Five: Registering for the jumpstart program gave me financial benefits and helped me made my academic pursuits easier especially as a freshmen Student Six: As a student coming from a low income background, I am very happy that there is an opportunity for me to be able to go to college. Jumpstart helped me with my financial situation. Student Seven: The JumpStart program has allowed me to be a full time student without the worry of tuition building up to a cost that my parents and I cannot afford. What would you like to say to the Kodiak Island Borough Assembly Members regarding future funding for the JumpStart/StepUp Programs? *Student One: Being able to have access to a supportive community willing to fund our education has made me so glad that I stuck with a community college. I am able to work towards my degree without being in debt. The community has always been there and will always be. That is a special thing to be part of. Thank you! Student Two: Thank you for helping make college here more affordable. The program benefits students by helping pay for classes and students benefit the community by choosing Kodiak College and finding local jobs. Student Three:1 think that your donation is being put to great use and that it will impact so many people positively. I know so many people that would love to go to college but just simply cannot afford classes. I am very thankful for the help and opportunity to further my education. Thank you. Student Four: Thank you so much for providing these opportunities. Anything that helps me get through college is greatly appreciated as it eases a huge burden that most college students face which is the money. It allows us to work and do our best without stressing about our financial situation. Once again, thank you so much and we appreciate it. Student Five: As a working student, the Jumpstart program helped me through my financial problems. The Jumpstart funding is in the right amount to give to students who need it. Also, I would like to thank you for helping students with their education through Jumpstart program. As a result, we are able to seek higher education through the program. As always, Thank you for the support and encouragement to continue the journey of our college life. Student Six: Jumpstart is very helpful for many students trying to start their educational careers. I was one of those students, I am currently enrolled in my third semester now. Page 13 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. Student Seven: I would point out that for me it was very influential in my decision to pursue my college education. This program has lessened the financial burden on my family and without that burden I can focus my attention on my studies. I am a bit sad that during this busy time of year I did not see this email in time. Now I run the risk of not receiving this crucial financial assistance. When students are trying to pursue a degree for the first time as an adult, their lives look much different than those that are much younger. However, I do understand that no matter how the guidelines are written, someone will not be happy. Overall this is a great program and one I greatly support. One suggestion I would like to make is maybe an incentive for people to restart if they stopped going to school. Thank you. *Random quotes were selected from a variety of students and do not represent the same student in each section.

SERVICES Email Address: 1.1 Describe the organization and the service(s) it provides to the Kodiak Island community. Response: The Kodiak Seafood and Marine Science Center (KSMSC) is a University of Alaska Fairbanks facility located on Near Island. Formerly known as the Fisheries Industrial Technology Center (FITC, or FishTech), KSMSC was established in 1981 to serve the Alaskan seafood industry. The mission of the KSMSC is to increase the value and guide the wise use of Alaska's seafood industry, inclusive of commercial fishing and other marine resources, through research, technical assistance, workforce training, education and service.

Response: The work conducted at KSMSC addresses three powers of the Kodiak Island Borough listed above: education, health and economic development. The applied research, technical service, education and outreach support the safe and sustainable use of marine resources and serve as an economic driver in the Kodiak community. Kodiak consistently ranks as one of the top four largest seafood ports in the nation, is the largest fishing port in Alaska, and has a large resident seafood processing and fishing workforce, with plants operating 11 months a year. Conservatively, it is estimated that the seafood industry represents 30 percent to 40 percent of the local economy, measured in terms of income and employment, respectively (McDowell Group 2016). This financial request is for scholarship and travel funds for Kodiak residents seeking workforce training or training in food handling. With these funds, more Kodiak residents can benefit from the programs offered at the Kodiak Seafood and Marine Science Center. Three categories of workforce training opportunities are described.

DocuSign Envelope ID: 6E7169B9-6F7C-47CE-A241-6BOFA47F184D KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH GRANT REPORT Please complete this report based on funds received from the Kodiak Island Borough during the period July 1, 2023, through June 30, 2024. Organization Name: Kodiak Seafood and Marine Science Center 2023-2024 Grant Amount: 1. Describe the accomplishments made with grant funds (limit 500 words): KSMSC successfully utilized 100% of the awarded $14,681.76 for workforce and seafood utilization training to 56 Kodiak Island Borough industry employees and residents (Table 2.1). In fact, the scholarship funds were overspent due to the need in the workforce. The overage was compensated through additional training funds provided by the Alaska Marine Education Association, and in part by Alaska Sea Grant. This past year was the second year we pursued educational funds under this request and we are again pleased to be able to offer these training opportunities to our interested Kodiak community. We experienced success in executing this award which proposed balancing funds between three separate initiatives offered by our Center (marine safety, seafood processing, seaweed processing). However, due to demand most of the funds were spent on the seafood processing sector. It is useful to have flexibility in the spend down of the funds as we continue to evaluate training needs. Seafood: The KIB funds covered partial tuition cost for 7 residents enrolled in the Baader training; full tuition for one person in the NAACP class; and full registration for 19 people attending the Smoked Seafood workshop. The smoked seafood and HAACP training were planned in the FY24 proposal and award. However, there was interest and need for funds to be made available for Baader training which was organized post award. Faculty at KSMSC felt this was a good use of funds and re -allocated internally. Mariculture: For the second year, no KIB funds were used to cover costs of mariculture trainings and workshops. At this time, this industry has sufficient funding and we will not be pursuing additional grant funds for the upcoming year. Marine Safety: Three marine safety classes were offered this past year, with 27 commercial fishermen and 2 agency mariners trained. Classes were offered beginning January 2024 due to the limited availably of the instructor in the fall. The January class and the first May class filled with an ideal number of participants. However, the second May class did not fill. These May safety classes are usually in very high demand, and we speculate the limited interest this year was related to the depressed industry and slow start for the Kodiak salmon season. Summary In summary, the awarded funds were fully utilized and awarded funds prioritized internally. The work conducted at KSMSC addresses KIB powers including education, health and economic development. The applied research, technical service, education and outreach offered at KSMSC support the safe and sustainable use of marine resources and serve as an economic driver in the Kodiak community. This past year, KSMSC provided training to 56 people in areas important to the physical and economic health of the community and we are thankful for the funds.

Organization Name: Alutiiq Museum & Archaeological Repository Mailing Address: 215 Mission Road, Suite 101, Kodiak, AK 99615 Contact Name: April Laktonen Counceller, Executive Director Phone: 844-425-8844 Email Address: april@alutiigmuseum.org 1. SERVICES 1.1 Describe the organization and the service(s) it provides to the Kodiak Island community. The Alutiiq Museum is a public non-profit organization (501[c]3 and 509a) in downtown Kodiak, founded and governed by the Alutiiq/Sugpiaq community. We opened to the public in 1995 to preserve and share the heritage and living culture of the Alutiiq people. The museum earned national accreditation in 2011 and became an official natural and cultural history repository for the State of Alaska in 2015. The museum cares for over 250,000 objects and photographs reflecting more than 7500 years of Kodiak Alutiiq/Sugpiaq history. These collections are a foundation for public education and research. We develop culturally accurate educational programs, exhibits, and publications that help people of all ages, abilities, and heritages explore Alutiiq heritage. We develop displays, host events, work in schools, lead visitor tours, provide trainings and workshops, and create and share educational resources—through radio, newspaper, Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit funding Application Page 22 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. the internet, circulating materials, and extensive partnerships with community organizations. Our programs reach across the archipelago, serving the Kodiak Island Borough widely. Our website allows thousands in Kodiak and beyond to connect to the Alutiiq world. The museum's research programs help artists, educators, students, and researchers connect to the Alutiiq world through object studies and the use of our publicly accessible library (4,000+ titles). As part of our research efforts, we maintain an active archaeological program to document the deep, unwritten history of the Alutiiq and promote historic preservation. Additionally, the museum operates a retail store that sells the work of local artists. The Alutiiq Museum Store provides economic opportunities by helping Kodiak's creative community develop skills to take their creations from the studio to the marketplace. We assist with training, pricing, marketing, and sales. This is important as many Native artists have limited access to markets and struggle to compete in the creative economy. Our store is the largest retailer of genuine Native art in Kodiak, providing authentic work for shoppers and reliable income for rural artists. 1.2 The powers of the Kodiak Island Borough are: • Education 0 Emergency Services Planning 0 Road Services • Health • Economic Development ♦ Street Lighting Planning & Zoning • Fire Protection & EMS • Parks & Recreation . Animal Control Describe how the project or service for which funding is requested will be consistent with the powers of the Borough. The Alutiiq Museum's building is currently under renovation with completion scheduled for December 2024. The project is expanding our facility by 3,400 sf across two floors. Most importantly, it will transform the entire first floor into public space with a classroom, gathering area, double the exhibit space, and a larger museum store. This once -in -a -generation project reflects years of planning, fundraising, and a demonstrated community need. A 2019 survey of 519 patrons of all heritages revealed frustrations with our facilities. People recognized the quality of AMAR's building but saw serious limitations in the space available for public use. They expressed a particular need for a classroom so workshops, presentations, and celebrations could occur in the museum. The renovation is adding this space. It will create a 1947 sf multi -use classroom with a capacity of 100 people. This classroom will support the Borough's powers of education and economic development as discussed below. We respectfully ask the Borough for $5,000 toward furnishings to support classroom development. The museum has just 24 stackable chairs. We propose to purchase 50 more, plus four dollies for chair moving and storage, and ten folding tables. The materials will allow the museum to configure the classroom for many purposes—from a carving workshop space to a lecture hall or a potluck dinner venue. We have selected durable plastic furnishing that can be easily cleaned, moved, and stored in large wall cabinets in the classroom. These furnishings will be a lasting contribution to the public use of the classroom. Moreover, outfitting the classroom and supporting the educational services it will make possible, are consistent with two central powers of Kodiak Island Borough—education and economic development. Through public education, the museum creates opportunities for all people to connect to Kodiak's Native heritage and learn about the rich history of the Kodiak Archipelago. Museum staff members offer diverse, enriching educational experiences for Borough residents and visitors, providing opportunities for people to Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 23 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. learn in accessible and engaging ways. With quality programs and accurate educational materials, the museum deepens understanding of the history and culture of the Kodiak region. This helps to dismantle misunderstandings and stereotypes about Native heritage and promotes community healing. Borough support for furnishing the classroom will help the museum continue this essential work and build a strong, connected, and diverse community. It will also support long-term educational collaborations with other local organizations—Kodiak Island Borough School District, Kodiak College, Kodiak Arts Council, Kodiak History Museum, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and others.

The new museum classroom will add valuable infrastructure for our growing visitor industry. The 2021-2026 Kodiak Rural Region Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy notes a need for tourism infrastructure downtown. Further, it identifies the Alutiiq Museum as an important visitor resource and a place where additional capacity could be added. The new classroom will provide a piece of this infrastructure by creating a place where visitor programming can take place—cultural demonstrations, arts markets, dance performances, presentations, classes, and much more. It will help the museum enhance visitor opportunities and the economic benefits they generate. Finally, by investing in the Alutiiq Museum, the Borough will enhance our ability to attract additionaf funds that support Kodiak's economy more broadly. Local support shows that the museum matters to Kodiak. Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application 3 Page 24 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a.

Organization Name: Alutiiq Museum & Archaeological Repository 2023-2024 Grant Amount: $4,500 1. Describe the accomplishments made with grant funds (limit 500 words): With support for a 2023-2024 KIB non-profit grant, the Alutiiq Museum continued to serve Kodiak and its artists through the museum store. As part of this effort, we moved the store to the Downtown Marketplace during our building renovation. This allowed us to continue selling the work of local craftspeople, share interpretive materials, and host small events. To make this possible, we leveraged funding from the Borough to obtain support from RurAL CAP Foundation. Borough funds helped to pay staff salaries while a RurALCAP grant supported movers, supplies, furnishings, and advertising. The Alutiiq Museum covered rent, utilities, and the remaining personnel costs. The Marketplace location has proven popular with Kodiak residents, local artists, and visitors. Visitation and sales have been strong. We have consistently generated income for local artists who depend on the museum for access to patrons. We've also participated regularly in First Friday Art Walk, greeted hundreds of visitors — including many from cruise ships, and used the space as a pickup/drop off for our popular traveling education boxes, and much more. The space has been a valuable home base for the museum and our busy staff during the renovation. 2. Provide a breakdown of how the grant funds were expended: All grant funds were expended to support the salary of the museum's gallery manager, the person who oversees the daily operations of the Alutiiq Museum Store and its outreach to artists. Funds not expended by June 30th must be refunded to the Kodiak Island Borough.

In managing the Alaska Food Coalition, I work with more than 200 food banks and pantries, tribal organizations, faith -based groups, among others to support policies and programs that alleviate hunger, build healthy communities, and promote access to affordable, nutritious, and culturally appropriate food. We recognize that our coalition is only as strong as our individual members and the Brother Francis Shelter in Kodiak is an important partner in feeding Alaskans. We are currently working with Brother Francis to provide infrastructure updates that include maintenance on their walk-in freezers and refrigerators along with electrical work and new heating units. These renovations will help them better serve the community. Please consider fully funding their grant request so they can continue to support Alaskans less fortunate facing homelessness and hunger in the Kodiak community.

Box 110610 Juneau, Alaska 99811-0610 Main: 907.465.3090 Fax: 907.465.4632 I am writing to express my strong support for the Brother Francis Shelter Kodiak (BFSK) application for the Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding for FY25. The grant award is crucial for the continued operation of Kodiak's only Emergency Shelter, which provides critical services to our community 365 days a year. BFSK offers a safe and warm environment for a vulnerable population, including men, women, and, at times, children. In addition to shelter, BFSK provides warm, nutritious meals, which are essential for the health and well-being of those they serve. The Kodiak Public Health Center proudly partners with BFSK monthly to address the community's health needs. Our engagement includes administering vaccinations to reduce the risk of communicable diseases, distributing naloxone to combat the opioid crisis, offering blood pressure checks, and providing various health-related materials like hygiene kits. These efforts are crucial in ensuring that our community members experiencing homelessness have access to basic support. The impact of BFSK extends far beyond the immediate provision of shelter and emergency services. Their efforts contribute to a broader, long-term vision of a healthier and more equitable Alaska. By addressing both immediate needs and providing ongoing support, BFSK plays a vital role in promoting the overall health and well-being of our community. The scope of work undertaken by BFSK is extensive and reaches all levels of our community, making it imperative that their operations continue without interruption. Please consider fully funding this request. Sincerely, A Alyssa McKenzie, MPH Health & Equitable Communities Program Coordinator Page 37 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a.

BFSK is Kodiak's only emergency shelter, and it provides a valuable role: offering safe, warm housing and a nourishing meal to those in need. AHFC has partnered with BFSK on multiple projects resulting in positive economic, physical, and emergency outcomes for the Kodiak community. Among them, BFSK played a crucial role by distributing federally funded rent relief in response to the COVID pandemic to the community. This assisted both the renter and landlord by keeping individuals housed and money flowing into the community in desperate times. Additionally, BFSK has participated in AHFC's Housing the Homeless program that has resulted in 75 individuals/families in the Kodiak community finding permanent housing over the past 18 months. This was not an easy task, given the current housing shortage. BFSK has worked with these individuals and given them the necessary tools to obtain self-sufficiency. Further, AHFC has collaborated with BFSK in their Homeless Prevention and Emergency Shelter program. The Kodiak Shelter is open every evening of the year offering safety, warmth, and nourishment to all in need. In our experience, BFSK works diligently to improve the lives of those who are homeless, poor, and struggling within the community. We support their efforts to seek additional grant funding so they can continue providing the community with much-needed emergency shelter services.

We do this by connecting students and their families with existing local post -secondary education and workforce training opportunities, helping them navigate the resources available to support their success, and by advocating for existing and supporting the creation of new local education and training opportunities for residents in our region. Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 52 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. IGP specifically seeks to support local college and workforce training programs and students who reside in or intend to return to the Kodiak region after receiving their postsecondary training. For example, in 2023- 2024, with a grant from RurAL-CAP we facilitated a multi -agency partnership to create the Kodiak Fire & EMS Training Program (KIFEMS), a free and accelerated local workforce training program that made it possible for ten local residents to earn the industry certifications needed to qualify for local firefighterjob openings. Students completed their training at the end of May 2024 and as of this writing two have already been hired by the City of Kodiak Fire Department. In addition, during the 2021-2022 school year, along with Kodiak College-UAA and Kodiak Island Borough School District (KIBSD) leadership, IGP acted as an intermediary organization to help design, develop and establish a research -based and innovative early -middle college program for high school students. Since then, Kodiak College has staffed an outreach office at Kodiak High School. This has resulted in close collaboration between college advisors and high school counselors and over 100 students have earned college credits in high school. Collectively, these students have earned an average GPA above 3.0 and an average successful course completion rate of 90% or higher. IGP supports these efforts by hosting after-school supplementary postsecondary planning sessions at Kodiak High School through our Find Your Future Initiative. 1.2 The powers of the Kodiak Island Borough are: • Education 0 Emergency Services Planning 0 Road Services • Health Economic Development 0 Street Lighting • Planning & Zoning Fire Protection & EMS • Parks & Recreation • Animal Control Describe how the project or service for which funding is requested will be consistent with the powers of the Borough. Response: Island GRAD Project is currently an all -volunteer organization formed by long-time, local individuals with backgrounds in the fields of education and public service in Kodiak. KIB funds would be used to leverage matching funds and donations to continue building our capacity to deliver critically -needed, supplemental post -secondary transition services and programs that we identify in close consultation with stakeholders in our region (students and families, local schools, human services agencies, and industry partners). For 2024-2024 our focus will be on our second FYF Challenge and after-school postsecondary planning sessions. Labor for this program is all -volunteer but funding is needed for insurance, KIBSD facilities fee, and food and prizes to incentivize student participation and engagement.

KODIAK ISLAND BOROUGH GRANT REPORT Please complete this report based on funds received from the Kodiak Island Borough during the period July 1, 2023, through June 30, 2024. Organization Name: 2023-2024 Grant Amount: $4,675.00 1. Describe the accomplishments made with grant funds (limit 500 words) The KIB Grant made it possible for IGP to design and launch our first Find Your Future Challenge and award our first two student scholarships. The FYF Challenge, inspired by the popular Discover Kodiak Adjust Your Altitude Hiking Challenge, offered a series of free, after-school postsecondary planning sessions at Kodiak High School to KHS juniors and seniors. The bi-weekly planning sessions were coordinated with KHS school counselors to supplement and support their work, and to provide a space for students to work on any activity related to planning for life after high school. A volunteer IGP College & Career Coach was on hand to assist students with their activities and connect them to resources as needed. To help incentivize student engagement, we offered door prizes at each session (small items like planners and highlighters, and $30 gift cards to local businesses). Students kept a log of all of their activities and earned entries into the grand prize cash drawing for each activity completed. Abigail Pruitt won the $1,000 Senior prize and Hector Suarez won the $500 Junior prize. Our Academic Persistence Scholarship ($1,000) was awarded to Courtney Ibabao, a 2014 KHS graduate who is attending medical school at the University of Washington and plans to return to Kodiak. Our CTE -Workforce Training Scholarship ($1,000) was awarded to Diego Belarde, a 2024 KHS graduate who will be attending AVTEC for welding. Diego plans to attend UAF after a year at AVTEC and intends to return to Kodiak to run his family business. For 2023-2024, we planned the FYF Challenge in fall and offered the sessions in the spring semester. Our first challenge included just 12 students because we had only one volunteer College & Career Coach and it was a "soft - launch" pilot program. These 12 students were also an excellent student focus group who provided feedback for future efforts. Of the 12 students, 6 were juniors and 6 were seniors; 6 students would be first in their family to attend college; 8 students were students of color (Filipino, Hispanic, and/or Alaska Native), and 2 were students with documented disabilities. While this is a small sample, it illustrates potential for this type of programming. As we grow capacity, we hope to recruit additional volunteer coaches and more heavily recruit high -need students. With increased funding and community partnerships, we seek to expand the FYF Initiative to include: (1) hosting an annual Find Your Future Fair for local teens and young adults that showcases college, career, and local, wrap- around support resource options (housing, food, mental health, etc.), and (2) hosting family workshops centered on culturally -affirming postsecondary planning support in Kodiak and eventually in our village communities. The scale of these activities will depend on funding and recruitment of volunteers. The need is great and it is high -touch, human -based work. The support of the KIB helped IGP procure two donations in support of our FYF Initiative activities; we received $1,000 from the Elks Club of Kodiak and $1,000 from the Kodiak USCG Spouses Association.

SERVICES Email Address: kamp@kodiakmentors.org 1.1 Describe the organization and the service(s) it provides to the Kodiak Island community. Response: Kodiak Area Mentor Program (KAMP) is a Christian faith -based program that builds mentoring relationships with individuals in,need of overcoming setbacks. We believe that growth and change happen through meaningful relationships with God and with people. 1.2 The powers of the Kodiak Island Borough are: • Education • Emergency Services Planning • Road Services • Health Economic Development Street Lighting • Planning & Zoning Fire Protection & EMS • Parks & Recreation Animal Control Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 57 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. Describe how the project or service for which funding is requested will be consistent with the powers of the Borough. Response: KAMP's services align with the powers of the Borough in the areas of Education, Health, Emergency Services Planning and Economic Development. Education: We support the mission of the Kodiak Island School District through the support we provide to families who are impacted by incarceration, substance abuse and mental health crises. Substance abuse impacts families and can often cause children to be absent from school, be unprepared for class, lack the supplies they need for their classes, and suffer from insufficient sleep. Children who are neglected and not nurtured at home fail to thrive in the school system. Through our efforts to provide services to families through food cards, gas cards, housing assistance, utility assistance, workshops on parenting skills, and opportunities for fellowship with other healthy families, the school system will reap the benefits. Health: For many of the same reasons mentioned above, KAMP benefits the health of the Kodiak community members. We promote healthy relationships and provide discussion groups, opportunities for fellowship and outreach, strive to promote a message of achieving abundance in all areas of life through sober living. Emergency Services Planning: KAMP has been able to assist families who have suffered sudden homelessness due to fire. We have the infrastructure to assist with individuals and families who are in crisis due to opioid/fentanyl overdose, the loss of the breadwinner in the family due to incarceration or overdose, and other areas of community need that is related to substance use disorder and mental health issues. Economic Development: Healthy Kodiak citizens are healthy for the community. Economic development is more likely to thrive if we can reduce the negative impact that substance use disorders have on our community. Our efforts to reach those who are struggling with addiction are designed specifically to improve the overall well-being of all community members. Individuals involved in substance abuse often commit crime to support their addiction. Homelessness is associated with substance abuse and our efforts are targeted at this population as well. 2. FINANCIAL INFORMATION 2.1 Amount requested. $5,000 2.2 Provide a budget for expending the funds requested. Additional financial information is not needed. Response: These funds will be used to support the KAMP Headquarters, which is located in the heart of the downtown area where the greatest need exists. Our visibility and accessibility in this location is critical to our ability to provide outreach to the target population. The grant funds will go towards the cost of rent and utilities for the KAMP Headquarters.

Describe the accomplishments made with grant funds (limit 500 words): The grant funds awarded for FY24 were applied towards our operating costs for the KAMP Headquarters. The ability to maintain a location in the heart of the Kodiak downtown area within walking distance of the boat harbor, Brother Francis Shelter, Kodiak Public Library and other locations that are linked to where the greatest need for our services lies, is instrumental to the success of the program and our community. The KAMP banner is visible from the boat harbor, can be seen by passing pedestrians and motorists, and is a local beacon of light in this location. KAMP Headquarters is a safe -haven and a hub for help for the community. We meet year-round every Friday night to provide a nourishing meal, present a discussion topic, provide opportunity for community members to mingle, and provide childcare so that entire families can join us. We hold special events and have invited speakers and trainers to make presentations at our centrally located headquarters. Our strategic location in the heart of the downtown area, among the bars, a liquor store and where many of the homeless population congregate, is critical to our outreach efforts. 2.

Organization Name: Kodiak Area Native Association (KANA) Mailing Address: 3449 Rezanof Drive East, Kodiak, AK 99615 Contact Name: Ted Irvin Phone: (907) 486-9816 Email Address: Ted.Irvin@kodiakhealthcare.org 1. SERVICES 1.1 Describe the organization and the service(s) it provides to the Kodiak Island community. Response: The Kodiak Area Native Association (KANA) was formed in 1966 as a 501 (c) (3) non-profit corporation to provide health and social services for the people of Kodiak Island. KANA's service area includes the city of Kodiak and six remote Alaska Native villages: Akhiok, Karluk, Larsen Bay, Old Harbor, Ouzinkie, and Port Lions, encompassing ten federally -recognized Tribes of Kodiak Island. KANA exists through resolutions by the Tribal Governments of the Koniag region. Since its inception, KANA has evolved into a service provider for healthcare and social services within our region. KANA operates Community Health Centers in five of the six village Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 61 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. communities, as well as two located in the city of Kodiak, to provide primary medical, dental, behavioral health, radiology, and Women, Infant, and Children (WIC) services to all. In addition to delivering services from the KANA Health Centers, KANA operates a Community Services Center, Child and Family Services Center, Wellness Center, and Substance Use Disorder Treatment Center. Services and programs offered at these various centers include Family Services, Employment and Training, Infant Learning, Tribal Operations, Vocational Rehabilitation, Elder Services, Public Safety, Economic Development, Intensive Outpatient, a Child Advocacy Center, Indian Child Welfare Act programming, Medical Nutrition Therapy, Physical Therapy, Massage Therapy, Tobacco Prevention outreach and education, and Physical Activity programs. Housed within the Community Services Center, KANA administers the Infant Learning Program (ILP) and the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) programs for the Koniag region. ILP provides free vision and hearing screenings to any child within the Kodiak Island Borough. Additionally, ILP holds the enterprise for the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) Program, which offers developmental screenings for children from birth to age five, which has been instrumental in catching early childhood developmental delays, allowing families to work with providers to create individualized plans. Children found to experience developmental delays can be supported through therapies including occupational, physical, and speech therapy; as well as family service coordination to help the child's team. The KANA WIC Program serves low-income pregnant, postpartum, and breastfeeding mothers, infants, and children up to the age of five. WIC provides nutrition and breastfeeding education, referrals to other social services, and assistance with healthy food to families in need. Pregnancy and early childhood are critical periods of growth and development. By providing access to healthy foods, nutrition education, and breastfeeding support, the WIC program improves the health of nutritionally at -risk, low-income women, infants, and children. A major part of the WIC program is monitoring participants' heights, weights, and hemoglobin levels; followed by a nutrition assessment. All of this is completed at the participant's annual certification, which now can be completed in person or over the phone, whichever is the most convenient and accessible option for those we serve. Our team also provides recipes and food ideas and teaches participating families how to use the food that they receive through WIC to maximize its nutritional value. 1.2 The powers of the Kodiak Island Borough are: •g cation Emergency Services Planning Road Services •lth Economic Development Street Lighting • Planning & Zoning 0 Fire Protection & EMS • Parks & Recreation 0 Animal Control Describe how the project or service for which funding is requested will be consistent with the powers of the Borough. Response: KANA's funding request, if approved, will be used primarily to maintain and improve outreach and educational opportunities delivered through the ILP and WIC programs at resource fairs and community events, as well as address consistent resource shortages that these programs have historically experienced. ILP currently facilitates two efficacy -based trainings that will continue being offered (Strengthening Families and Circle of Security Parenting). For the past several years, these trainings have benefitted KANA communities by having ILP staff conduct community visits to offer these trainings directly to individuals and Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 62 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. families. While the ILP team is able to continue delivering impactful trainings with support from its existing funding partners, funding is being requested from the Kodiak Island Borough to purchase additional supplies to ensure local demand can be met, as well as to cover wholesome meals for the families who attend, which KANA's current State and federal funding sources do not allow. This will incentivize participation and help boost attendance for beneficiaries KANA ILP offers vision and hearing screenings to the youngest children in our community and throughout the Archipelago. These vision and hearing screens have helped ensure that individuals who need auditory or ocular corrective devices are being identified and referred to appropriate providers in a timely fashion. While these screenings are painless and quick, hearing screenings rely on single -use, disposable materials which can unfortunately only be purchased from one vendor that now charges high shipping rates* for delivery to Alaska. Having the appropriate support for adequate hearing and vision improves the health and overall development of our children. Through the WIC program, the nutrition and breastfeeding education materials purchased with KIB funds will be used in two primary ways. First, educational materials are handed out to community attendees at the annual Coast Guard's Welcome Aboard Fair, the annual Children's Fair, and village health fairs. Examples of these types of materials are children's toothbrushes with our program's contact number and flyers with the benefits of family meals. Second, these materials are used as teaching aids during WIC appointments that WIC families are then able to take home. Nursing bras are a perfect example of something that is offered to pregnant mothers during WIC appointments. They not only aid in educating a mother on breastfeeding but also ultimately improve her overall breastfeeding experience. Using the education supplies in both of these manners improves the health of the young families in Kodiak. 2. FINANCIAL INFORMATION 2.1 Amount requested. $17,770 2.2 Provide a budget for expending the funds requested. Additional financial information is not needed. Response: Infant Learning Program (ILP) Funding Request: Infant hearing screening is a vital part of the Infant Learning Program, as ruling out hearing concerns is the first step in a developmental delay evaluation. Supplies are expensive and many are single -use; for example, probes and tips are used once and disposed of. The ILP team does more than 80 infant hearing screens a year, and will also offer hearing screens to community members of all ages when traveling to remote villages on Kodiak Island. A total of $500 is being requested for hearing screening items. Hearing Screening Items: $500 KANA ILP is requesting funding to purchase miscellaneous items to families that support the developmental learning of children. Items such as high chairs and learning towers help incorporate children into a family's daily routines, including cooking and meal times. Many families that KANA serves don't have the financial resources to purchase sturdy, age-appropriate items like high chairs and learning towers, so ILP supports families in purchasing high-quality items so that children can be safely included in day-to-day activities that facilitate learning and connection to their caregivers. Funding will be used to purchase and * See Figure 1 on pg. #7 reflecting the high cost of shipping for single -use hearing screening supplies Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 63 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. provide KANA clients with high chairs, learning towers, and other age-appropriate safety and educational items including car seats and bouncer seats. ILP maintains an inventory of these items and loans them out enrolled families or families who are referred to ILP with the expectation that they will be returned as the child grows out of them and the family no longer has need; however, some items are either damaged during use or do not ultimately get returned to KANA's ILP team, so there is a need to periodically purchase new items for loan to other families in need. A total of $3,000 is being requested for the purchase of miscellaneous child development resources as described. Miscellaneous Child Development Resources: $3,000 ILP offers outreach items to give out at fairs and other community events, promoting Infant Learning services as well as education on developmental milestones. Setting up booths costs funds that State and federal grant funds do not allow spending on, but are nevertheless integral aspects of outreach that help raise awareness and drive participation. Booths offer a chance for parents to learn about development and children to play and explore. A modest budget for various age-appropriate games, activities, and booth decorations is being requested to help garner interest and engagement with families at community events. A total of $500 in funding is being requested for booth activities and decorations. Activities & Decorations for Community Event Booths: $500 ILP staff is requesting funding for virtual STAT (Screening Tool for Autism in Toddlers and Young Children) training, offer through Vanderbilt University. The STAT is an experience -based screening tool to screen for autism in children two to three years old. The STAT is a play -based screener that takes about 20 minutes and can be done in the child's home or the Infant Learning Office. The screen is designed to be used by community service providers such as ILP providers and helps to identify the need for autism evaluation referrals to Neuroscience. Wait lists for Neurosciences can be over a yearlong and early detection of autism has shown to lead to improved child outcomes. STAT Virtual Training & Resources: $770 The ILP provides free vision and hearing screenings and evaluations to children and families, and KANA program staff conduct regular outreach to ensure that families are aware of the services provided. ILP does not have the staff to provide all fields of therapy, so private therapy at Providence Medical Center is often required by KANA's clients. Providence charges fees for services, and the KANA ILP covers cost overages if the family's insurance doesn't pay for the entire cost. Once families are enrolled, a 'Consent to Bill Insurance' is signed by parents, a majority of whom are covered under Medicaid or Tricare. However, in some instances, a family will have private insurance, and services delivered by Providence will often result in a required copay. KANA receives funding from the State of Alaska and federal Part C funds which can be used to cover these copays, but these resources run out quickly and KANA has found a consistent need for additional funding to assist low- and moderate -income clients with the copays. A total of $4,025 is being requested to provide co - pay assistance to families, based on an anticipated 115 visits for therapeutic and other services and estimated $35 co -pay per visit for KANA families receiving services through Providence. Set -Aside Funding for Private Therapy Co -Pay Assistance: $4,025 In addition to booths at resource fairs and other community events, ILP staff seek to encourage word-of- mouth referrals and engage with prospective clients by phone to encourage families with children to take advantage of the child development resources that KANA offers. Purchasing KANA-branded promotional items such as tote bags*, notebooks, pens, and other items with programmatic contact information to give to clients Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 64 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. and handout at events will help promote referrals and increase access to program services. A total of $2,000 in KANA promotional items is being requested. KANA-Branded Tote Bags & Promotional Items: $2,000 TOTAL ILP FUNDING REQUEST: $10,770 Women, Infants, and Children Program Funding Request: The WIC program is requesting funding for various programmatic supplies associated with hemoglobin * See Figure 2 image of promotional tote bags on pg. #7 blood testing, infant and child dental care, nutrition education, outreach and promotion, nursing and lactation assistance, and infant and child evaluations: • Hemoglobin Blood Testing - $500 lump sum supply request for HemoCue test kits, lancets, alcohol pads, Band-Aids, gloves, gauze, and other testing materials • Baby Scale Liners - $200 request for single -use baby scale liners (5 qty. x 250 liner case @ $40/case) • Nutrition Education Materials and Handouts - $500 requested for purchase and distribution of nutrition education pamphlets and handouts to KANA clients and regional community members • Nursing Bras - $300 request for purchase of nursing bras for nursing mothers • Breastfeeding Aids - $400 request to purchase nursing pads, cold packs, pillows, and other supplies commonly requested by breastfeeding mothers • WIC Outreach Materials - $300 request for professionally -printed WIC informational material for distribution at resource fairs and other regional community events • Children & Infant Dental Care Supplies - $500 request for the purchase of child and infant toothbrushes, toothpaste, teething toys, and other dental care items • Children's Books - $200 request for new children's books for WIC clients' use before and during appointments • Fruits & Vegetables at Outreach Events - $500 request for the purchase of health fruits and vegetables to distribute at health fairs and other community outreach events • Nutrition Education Give-Aways - $2,500 request for plates, cups, utensils, placemats, and other items with nutrition information for distribution to potential WIC program beneficiaries and clients at outreach events and during appointments • Nutrition Education Toys - $100 request to purchase new toys that infants and children visiting KANA offices can play with during WIC client appointments TOTAL WIC PROGRAM FUNDING REQUEST: $7,000 While KANA maintains a federally -negotiated indirect cost rate agreement with the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services, our organization does not wish to include indirect costs in the funding request or collect indirect, if awarded.

SERVICES 1.1 Describe the organization and the service(s) it provides to the Kodiak Island community. Kodiak KINDNESS Project exists to help Kodiak families nourish their babies' bodies and souls with compassion, providing free and evidenced -based support regarding all aspects of infant feeding. KINDNESS offers a relationship with families from the time of birth with education and support for all aspects of infant feeding including breast pump and infant scale loans, classes on introducing solid foods, and home visits. All services are available in Tagalog, Spanish, and English with native -speaking Peer Counselors. Families do not wait for scheduled appointments and health insurance is not billed. Feeding concerns are often addressed the same day, and KINDNESS makes referrals as needed to appropriate partners. Families can also call a live KINDNESS "warm -line" 24 hours/day for immediate help.

Health: KINDNESS prevents infant feeding problems even before (or as soon as) they arise. KINDNESS removes barriers for all Kodiak parents to access high quality primary health services related to any aspects of infant feeding in a timely manner, at no cost to them_ It is well known that longer duration rates of exclusive breastfeeding have proven life-long impacts on physical, emotional and cognitive health for both infants and parents (htt s: ublications.aa .or ediatrics article 150 1 e2022057988 188347 Polic - Statement-Breastfeeding-and-the-Use-ofl; 97 percent of KINDNESS enrolled families intend to breastfeed as long as they can. Healthy People 2030 goals aim to increase the duration of exclusive breastfeeding at six months from the current 24.9% to 42.4% and increase the proportion of infants still breastfeeding at one year from 35.9% to 54.1%(https://www.cdc.gov/breastfeeding/data/facts.html). Cumulative data (2006— present) show that at six months, 55.6% of families participating in KINDNESS are exclusively breastfeeding and 56.2% continue breastfeeding at one year. Both outcomes exceed CDC and WHO goals and are far above national averages. It is a safe assumption to state that Kodiak Island Borough can boast the highest rate of exclusive breastfeeding in the nation, due in largely to timely KINDNESS services, as well as the close collaboration KINDNESS maintains with KCHC, KANA and PKIMC to coordinate care and ensure every Kodiak family with an infant is offered KINDNESS enrollment, regardless of where they are born. Education: KINDNESS nurtures the wisdom instinctive to all parents through confidence -building and reassurance of normal human biology related to infant feeding. We educate parents and community members on all infant feeding topics needed to meet their goals, regardless of feeding choices, through individual, proactive coaching targeted to each baby's stage of development and free community infant feeding classes. The internet and social media are poor substitutes for evidence -based, individualized support provided in the context of a trusted relationship, especially when infants are not born with personalized instruction manuals. Exclusive breastfeeding results in optimal brain development during the critical first three years of life, in turn leading to increased readiness for school. Kodiak KINDNESS contributes to a higher likelihood of a whole generation of Kodiak kids meeting their full cognitive potential. Emergency Services Planning: An often overlooked but obvious benefit of high rates of breastfeeding is increased community resilience in times of an emergency. Kodiak is at risk of natural disasters such as earthquakes and tsunamis that may affect families' access to infant formula and potable water for mixing the formula. In February of 2022, contamination discovered at a Michigan infant formula plant triggered a shutdown that caused a nationwide infant formula shortage lasting 10 months. In Kodiak, this event added insult to injury because local supplies of infant formula (and other items) are routinely low or out due to shipping and supply chain disruptions to our isolated island. Kodiak KINDNESS services helped support families through the 2022 formula shortage by connecting them with safe alternatives, and in some cases helping mothers to re -lactate so they could continue breastfeeding their infants. Infants are particularly vulnerable in times of emergencies, and KINDNESS services help Kodiak families stay prepared. Simply put, breastfeeding saves lives.

Organization Name: Kodiak Soil and Water Conservation District (KSWCD) Mailing Address: 301 Research Court, Room 245, Kodiak, Alaska 99615 Contact Name: Blythe Brown Phone: 907-486-5574 Email Address: blythe.brown@kodiaksoilandwater.org 1. SERVICES 1.1 Describe the organization and the service(s) it provides to the Kodiak Island community. Response: The Mission of the KSWCD is `To provide education and leadership by coordinating and implementing programs for the conservation, use and sustainable development of soil, water, and related resources." We are a member of the Alaska Association of Conservation Districts (AACD) a 501c3 non-profit, and the National Association of Conservation Districts (NACD). KSWCD is an entity authorized under Alaska state statute AS 41.10 but receives no regular state funding. Employees are hired by the non-profit AACD, paid Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 88 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. through grant funding, with local oversight by a five -member volunteer board of supervisors. Our programs and services are available to all residents and visitors. KSWCD's current projects support natural resources and community education concerning invasive species, agriculture, community gardens and fish habitat restoration. Our activities are grant -dependent so actual projects fluctuate with funding opportunities. The invasive species programs help protect Kodiak agriculture, subsistence resources, and wildlands by encouraging landowners to control infestations. KSWCD utilizes grant funding to assist landowners (including the Kodiak Island Borough) to map and apply control measures to high priority species and infestations in critical areas. The Kodiak Island Borough has never directly funded invasive species control on their lands. KSWCD has been providing this service through grants (sometimes partially matched by KIB non-profit educational funds). In 2024 match is not required, but our grant funds have been reduced leaving us with a funding gap. KSWCD manages the Kodiak Community Gardens which provides space for community members to grow food for their families. Kodiak 4-H kids maintain two beds, and several growers contribute their produce to Kodiak area shelters and the food bank. With funding provided through federal partners, our fish habitat projects have improved conditions for anadromous and resident fish throughout the Buskin and Lake Orbin watersheds. These projects contributed hundreds of thousands of dollars to the local economy by hiring local contractors to replace inadequate culverts and remove debris from the river. The new culverts are engineered to allow salmon access to upstream spawning and rearing habitat. We currently have no active construction contracts but are working with partners to plan and implement new projects. Kodiak does not currently have a University Cooperative Extension Service Agriculture Agent on island, so KSWCD has been filling that educational niche by providing CES publications and information in our office and at events such as the Community Learning Series Forums, the Kodiak Rodeo and State Fair, and outside of our office in the Touch Tank Building. KSWCD also provides free pressure canner gauge testing to community members. This is an important safety step in ensuring proper pressure canning of low acid foods like meat, fish, and vegetables. Many Kodiak residents rely on pressure canning their garden and wild harvest to preserve food through the winter. 1.2 The powers of the Kodiak Island Borough are: • Education Emergency Services Planning Road Services • Health 0 Economic Development 0 Street Lighting • Planning & Zoning 0 Fire Protection & EMS • Parks & Recreation • Animal Control Describe how the project or service for which funding is requested will be consistent with the powers of the Borough.

Response: KSWCD programs provide Education to Borough schools and community; the messages concerning habitats, local food production, and food preservation safety have a direct relationship to Health; preventing the spread of invasive species will protect our Parks & Recreation areas for public use; KSWCD promotes Economic Development through the support of agricultural projects and sustainable use of natural resources; we hire local contractors for our projects and have contributed millions of dollars towards local fish passage projects in the Buskin watershed; KSWCD benefits Road Services by bringing in funding and partnering with the KIB Engineering Department to replace culverts and by controlling invasive species along some of the Borough's road rights of way. 2.

Describe the accomplishments made with grant funds (limit 500 words): KSWCD utilized Kodiak Island Borough non-profit funds to participate in many educational activities throughout the year. Our outreach and education reached Kodiak residents and visitors of all ages. We participated in events including the Kodiak State Fair, KALI/Alutiiq Grown conference, Kodiak Community Learning Series Forums, the US Coast Guard Newcomers Fair, and ComFish. We combined these funds with other grants, including a USDA NRCS agreement to hire an Agriculture Outreach and Education Coordinator which allowed us to expand our activities, provide more staff participation, and reach a broad range of the Kodiak community. During the last funding period, KSWCD staff responded to requests from the public for information about soils, invasive species, and other natural resource related topics. KSWCD mailed our pressure gauge for annual calibration and tested home pressure canner gauges for food safety. Staff also provided UAF Cooperative Extension Service (CES) bulletins at events and in the KIB KFRC hallway outside our office. KSWCD held a training session with local DOT&PF employees about best management practices for preventing the spread of invasive species. Staff attended Nuniaq Camp and took campers on plant walks, provided information and activity sheets at the Kodiak National Wildlife Refuge visitor's center for Alaska Invasive Species Awareness Week, and taught students and teachers at The Rock about invasive species and held an outdoor survey session with classes. KSWCD staff developed several public outreach materials such as a "Plant This, Not That" poster for Kodiak gardeners, a flyer about responsible trail use, and coloring sheets about native and invasive species. We also designed a page in the hiking passport booklets given out to Adjust Your Altitude hiking challenge participants about invasive species on the trails. KSWCD staff purchased supplies and created resin crayfish specimens for use in classrooms and at outreach events. 2.

SERVICES Email Address: darlene@kodiakteencourt.org 1.1 Describe the organization and the service(s) it provides to the Kodiak Island community. Response, Kodiak Teen Court, Inc., founded in 1995, is a community-based restorative justice project developed and operated in a manner consistent with the goals and recommendations of the Alaska Governor's Conference on Youth and Justice. We are a non-profit organization providing the benefits of citizenship and leadership to the youth of the Kodiak Island Borough. The Teen Court Program provides Restorative Justice, an alternate adjudication and sentencing procedure for young offenders, offering an opportunity for those who make mistakes early in their lives to constructively pay their debt to society without incurring a criminal record. An atmosphere of respect for the law is fostered through the principle of judgment by peers, restitution for the offense committed, and community service. Kodiak island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 92 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. Kodiak Teen Court will serve the community of Kodiak and victims of juvenile crime. KTC will ensure that once a youth defendant is sentenced a combination of restorative justice measures including community service, paying restitution to the victim, writing apology letters, and other appropriate restorative justice sanctions authorized by the program are initiated. Kodak Teen Court will work closely with other local service agencies to provide the best possible service to the youth in the program, the youth Clients served by the program and to the community service agencies to provide the best possible service to the youth involved in the program, the youth Clients served by the program and to the community Kodiak Teen Court will offer an opportunity to those who make mistakes to constructively pay their debt to society without incurring a criminal record. Kodiak Teen Court will foster an atmosphere of respect forthe law through the principle of judgment by peers and restitution for wrongs committed. In most cases, Kodiak Teen Court will emulate State of Alaska adult criminal proceedings to provide an opportunity for youth to learn about the criminal justice system. Kodiak Teen Court recidivism rate is less than 10% over a 5 -year period. The benefit of providing this program to the Kodiak Island Borough community reduces crime and teaches youth the importance of community awareness an involvement. General State recidivism rates are over 75% 1.2 The powers of the Kodiak [stand Borough are: ® Education • Emergency Services Planning • Road Services m Health a Economic Development • Street Lighting m Planning & Zoning O Fire Protection & EMS • Parks & Recreation • Animal Control Describe how the project or service for which funding is requested will be consistent with the powers of the Borough. Response: Education and Health 1. Current teen attorneys and judges include Forty (40) youth in grades 8-12; each has completed a three (3) month "Introduction to Law/Teen Court" class taught by Program volunteers in the classroom and courtroom. Sixteen (16) of these students are also gaining valuable leadership experience by serving as on the KTC Board of Directors (with 8 adult board members for continuity) of a non-profit corporation. The position of President, V.P. and Secretary are held by youth and the Treasurer is an adult. They constitute the Executive Board. 2. Corporation officers, Directors and Bar Association officers. Kodiak Teen Court members must participate in a minimum of four (4) CLE (Continuing Legal Education) training segments during each FY to remain active in the program. Clients are referred to Kodiak Teen Court in four ways. a. The Juvenile Probation Officer, with the concurrence of the minor and their parent/guardian, may refer youth following a screening process for suitability. This occurs within the terms of the "Youth Court Act", AS 47.12.400. The minor may elect to plead Not -guilty or Guilty or No -contest to misdemeanor charges, this can include felony charges that have been reduced to misdemeanors. Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 93 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. b. In District Court A minor may plead "guilty" or "no contest" in regular court to a charge of "Minor possessing or consuming alcohol or tobacco" or other infractions. With the concurrence of the judge or the magistrate, if the youth is 18 or younger, they may elect deferral to Kodiak Teen Court for sentencing. C. A minor may enter Kodiak Teen Court through the KIBSD as a referred case with the concurrence of the minor and their parent or guardian. d. A minor may enter Kodiak Teen Court through the Kodiak Police Department as a referred case with the concurrence of the minor and their parent or guardian. 4. Kodiak Teen Court's mission is to provide services and benefits to four distinctly different groups of people in the greater Kodiak area. This Year we have added a 5th A. Kodiak Teen Court provides youthful offenders with an alternative to the traditional juvenile justice system, in which they will be tried, judged and sentenced by their own peers rather than by adults. It also gives these offenders sentences that will deter them and others from re -offending, appropriate counseling services necessary to develop their rehabilitative skills, an awareness of the impact their crimes have had upon the community, and finally, an opportunity to constructively pay off their debt to society without incurring a criminal record. B. Middle school and high school students in Kodiak are benefited by Teen Court providing them with training in criminal law, which in turn hones their leadership skills, instills self-confidence and empowers them to make a difference in the lives of their peers and ultimately, in the society they will soon be entering as adults. C. The program provides restorative justice to the victims of crimes with a forum to vocalize their feelings about the offense and, at the same time, educate offenders about the impact that the crime has had on their lives, it allows for much-needed apologies and restitution to be made to the victims, and last, it gives them the necessary closure to the incident. D. The people of Kodiak benefit from Kodiak Teen Court by not only having community work service performed for them at no cost by teen offenders, but they also benefit by a lower teen crime rate and the fact that their juvenile probation office is able to provide more intensive attention to serious teen delinquency cases since their workload is lessened by the number of cases it does not need to work on because they are being handled by Teen Court. E. This FY Kodiak Teen Court will host the united Youth Courts of Alaska Conference. We anticipate 150 youth and adults from across Alaska will attend the conference October 3-6, 2024. The conference will be held at the Down Town Market Place, Kodiak Best Western inn will be providing hotel space for the attendees. Local ethnic businesses will be catering both lunch and dinner.

Response: The project for which Old Harbor Alliance is requesting funding—purchasing tents for summer camps— aligns closely with the powers and responsibilities of the Kodiak Island Borough in the areas of education and health. Here's how this initiative supports these key areas: Safe Learning Environment: The tents will provide a safe, sheltered space for educational activities during the summer camps, ensuring that learning can continue regardless of weather conditions. This aligns with the Borough's commitment to enhancing educational opportunities for its residents. Outdoor Education: By facilitating outdoor educational programs, the tents will help teach participants about local ecology, environmental conservation, and sustainable living practices, all of which are critical components of holistic education. Cultural Education: The tents will serve as venues for cultural workshops, language immersion sessions, and traditional skills training, thereby promoting cultural education and heritage preservation, which are vital educational objectives for the community. Physical Health: The summer camps, supported by the tents, will include various physical activities such as hiking, sports, and outdoor games. These activities are crucial for promoting physical health and fitness among participants. Mental Health: Providing a warm, dry, and comfortable gathering place helps reduce stress and enhances the overall camp experience, contributing positively to the mental well-being of the participants.

Tents will ensure that camp activities can proceed uninterrupted, providing a stable environment for both educational and recreational activities. Health Safety: Staying dry and warm is essential for preventing weather-related illnesses such as colds and hypothermia. The tents will provide necessary protection against the elements, ensuring the health and safety of all participants. Gathering Space: The tents will serve as central gathering spots for community members of all ages during camp sessions, fostering a sense of community and collective engagement. Inclusive Environment: By providing a comfortable and sheltered space, the tents make it possible for everyone, including those who might be more vulnerable to cold and wet conditions, to participate fully in camp activities. The $5,000 grant to purchase tents for the Old Harbor Alliance summer camps will directly support the Kodiak Island Borough's mission to enhance education and health in the community.

Organization Name: Rural Alaska Community Action Program, Inc. (RurAL CAP) Mailing Address: 731 E 81h Ave. Anchorage, AK 99501 Contact Name: L. Tiel Smith Phone: (907) 279-5511 Email Address: development@ruralcap.org 1. SERVICES 1.1 Describe the organization and the service(s) it provides to the Kodiak Island community. Response: RurAL CAP is a private, statewide, nonprofit organization operating under the mission to empower low- income Alaskans through advocacy, education, affordable housing and direct services that respect our unique values and cultures. The agency has a long, successful history of working on behalf of marginalized populations for cultural sovereignty, housing as a basic human right, and early education as a foundation for future success. Governed by a 24 -member Board of Directors representing the public sector, the private Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 107 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. sector, and the different regions of Alaska, RurAL CAP is committed to delivering innovative, community - driven solutions in response to Alaska's most challenging needs. Operating as one of the most diverse non- profit organizations in the state, RurAL CAP provides a variety of services and opportunities for people with low incomes across every region of Alaska and empowers Alaskans with low incomes through programs in Family Services, Rural Housing, and Community Development. Within the Family Services team, RurAL CAP's Early Childhood Education program operates Parents as Teachers, Center -based Child Care, Head Start, and Early Head Start programs across the state. Head Start is a comprehensive child development program serving children and families with low incomes in communities across Alaska. The program promotes school readiness by enhancing children's social and cognitive development through educational, health, nutritional, and social services. RurAL CAP's Head Start prepares Alaska's most vulnerable children for success in school and in their lives beyond academics. RurAL CAP has successfully provided Head Start services to 21 communities across Alaska for between 20 and 56+ years; RurAL CAP has offered Head Start in the Kodiak Island Borough for more than 20 years. The Head Start program promotes school readiness by enhancing the social and cognitive development of children through educational, health, nutritional, and social services while engaging parents and guardians every step of the way. These programs respect Alaskan's cultural diversity and innate potential for personal and professional growth by establishing partnerships based on collaboration, advocacy, and self-sufficiency. The Head Start program implements the Creative Curriculum. The Creative Curriculum is research -based and supports whole child development. With this curriculum children learn through holistic experiences that integrate their interests and curiosities and builds across time and previous learnings. Teachers facilitate children's learning by providing rich lessons and environments for children to take an active role in building their own understanding of the world around them. Teachers create educational opportunities through play and intentional explorations. The most important goals of our curriculum are for children to build healthy relationships and to develop a love of learning. To this end, we follow these guiding principles from the Head Start Early Learning Outcomes Framework in all our classrooms. These programs foster school readiness through individualized learning experiences. These early learning experiences function through planned and spontaneous instructions and interactions with others. As a result, this exercise reinforces social skills and emotional well-being, alongside language learning and concept development. Each child in Head Start receives developmental screenings, healthy meals, and mental health support. These services are in addition to the program's assurance of connecting families with medical, dental, mental, and social services. Families are then supported in reaching their goals and strengthening their parent-child relationships. The successes experienced through RurAL CAP's Head Start program have contributed to the lives of thousands of families since 1965. This beneficial outcome is the result of skilled professionals working closely with families and communities to promote RurAL CAP's shared vision of Healthy People, Sustainable Communities, Vibrant Cultures. By providing culturally relevant, community -driven, high-quality center -based services, the RurAL CAP Head Start Program in the Kodiak Island Borough strengthens families, promotes healthy relationship skills and Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 108 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. responsible parenting, and fosters the well-being of children and, in doing so, makes measurable progress toward child school readiness. 1.2 The powers of the Kodiak Island Borough are: • Education 0 Emergency Services Planning 0 Road Services • Health 0 Economic Development 0 Street Lighting • Planning & Zoning 0 Fire Protection & EMS • Parks & Recreation • Animal Control Describe how the project or service for which funding is requested will be consistent with the powers of the Borough. Response: In line with the Kodiak Island Borough's commitment to education, RurAL CAP respectfully requests classroom enhancement supplies to support its Head Start program in Kodiak. Specifically, we seek support for supplies for the existing hydroponic garden, as well as dramatic play materials for the classroom. The hydroponic project will expand the existing hydroponic garden at the Kodiak Head Start facility, through the purchase of new materials and a larger water reservoir. The new garden will be able to run throughout the entire year without constant supervision by staff on weekends and holidays. This addition would allow the staff to stagger the seed starting and harvest continually throughout the school year. Children will participate in starting the seeds and observe their growth as seedlings. While the plants are developing, they will receive information about the plant lifecycle. Eventually, they will help transfer the seedlings to the hydroponic towers. Once the greens are ready, the children will learn how to harvest the plants. Hydroponic gardening offers a clear and engaging way for children to observe and understand the plant life cycle. They can watch seeds germinate, see seedlings develop, and observe how plants mature and produce fruits or flowers. This continuous, visible cycle helps children grasp complex biological concepts in a simplified and relatable manner. Lessons can be structured around each growth stage, providing opportunities for children to document their observations, make predictions, and discuss changes they notice, reinforcing their understanding through active participation. A hydroponic garden also provides a hands-on learning experience about the origins and nutritional value of food. By growing their own vegetables and herbs, children gain a tangible connection to the food they eat, fostering an appreciation for fresh, healthy produce. Teachers can use the garden to introduce lessons on different nutrients found in plants and their importance for health. For example, while growing tomatoes, children can learn about the benefits of vitamins A and C, which are essential for vision and immune function. This practical approach helps children understand the direct link between the food they grow and their own health, encouraging lifelong healthy eating habits. The program will feature a "Family Fun" event which will include snacks for the participants using the produce grown in the hydroponic garden. Supplies and educational gardening information will be provided by the Head Start program. Lessons for families will include information on container gardening and Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 109 of 166 FY25 Nonprofit Funding Discussion AGENDA ITEM #2.a. maintaining small garden beds. These lessons will be aimed toward families who may rent their homes or have no yard space, demonstrating alternative methods of gardening and continuing the process at home. This project will increase the amount of fresh produce the children consume, introduce and educate families on growing greens, share locally grown recipes with families, and extend the learning outside of the classroom by teaching families to start seedlings at home. The purchase of dramatic play materials for the Kodiak Head Start program will complement the nature - based education of the hydroponic garden and would significantly enhance the development of the children's imagination and their exploration of community roles. Dramatic play materials, such as costumes, props, and themed playsets (e.g., kitchens, doctor's offices, and grocery stores), provide children with the tools they need to engage in imaginative play. This type of play is crucial for young children as it allows them to create scenarios, develop storylines, and act out various roles, fostering creativity and cognitive development. By incorporating dramatic play materials, children can explore and understand different community roles. This exploration helps children grasp the functions and responsibilities of various community members, promoting social awareness and empathy. Moreover, dramatic play supports language development as children communicate and negotiate roles with their peers, enhancing their vocabulary and conversational skills. It also encourages problem -solving and critical thinking as children navigate the dynamics of their imaginative scenarios. Funding for hydroponic garden supplies and dramatic play materials will significantly enhance the educational experience in the Kodiak Head Start classroom. The hydroponic garden will provide hands-on learning opportunities, teaching children about nutrition, plant biology, and environmental stewardship. Meanwhile, dramatic play materials will foster creativity, social skills, and an understanding of community roles. Together, these resources will create a dynamic, engaging learning environment that supports holistic development and prepares children for future academic success. 2.

(SCOK) used Kodiak Island Borough FY24 funds of $23,375.00 to match the Nutrition, Transportation & Support Services (NTS) state grant.

SCOK cannot charge for meals according to the Older Americans Act and can only ask for a suggested amount for each meal, which many cannot pay. KIB funds greatly assisted in matching the NTS grant and assisting in continuing to meet the increased demand for meals. Having a hot nutritious meal each day is vital for seniors being able to live at home independently and in our community. SCOK projects serving more than 25,000 meals this FY24. 2.

TEXAS A&M ENGINEERING —T National Emergency J�7AResponse and Recovery Training Center EXTENSION SERVICE AGENDA ITEM #4.a. CRISIS LEADERSHIP MGT -340 This seminar uses one of four case studies to examine the dynamics of crisis leadership and decision making from an elected or senior official's perspective. The four hour seminar uses the case study to frame the discussion on ways to overcome leadership challenges in planning and responding to a large scale incident. The final outcome of the seminar is the development of individual and jurisdictional action plans to guide improved preparedness and emergency response. Available Case Studies: • Hurricane Harvey: Chaos on the Gulf Coast • Mayhem at Mandalay Bay • The Camp Fire: Crisis in California • Fear and Realities: Managing Ebola in Dallas Course Length One Half Day (4 hours) Class Size 30 Participants Venue Seminar Topics Planning for Effective Disaster Response: The plans that are in place at the outset of a disaster have a significant impact on the success of the response and recovery. In order to be effective, plans must be adequate, feasible, adaptable, and all -hazards based. It is imperative that leaders, both elected and appointed, understand the role they play in the planning process. Jurisdiction Leadership and Decision Making During a Crisis: Senior officials must recognize their roles and CE Credits responsibilities as leaders in advance, rather than 0.40 CEUs discovering their obligations for the first time in the midst of a crisis. They must also identify ways in which they will develop the situational awareness necessary for decision making in a disaster. Participants • Elected Officials • Senior Appointed Officials • Chiefs/Department Heads • Emergency Management Directors • Educational Institution Administration • Public and Private Sector Executives • Public Health and Health Care Officials • NGOs • State/Federal Agency Representatives • Public Information Officers (PIO) • Local Business Partners For more information, contact: TEXAS A&M ENGINEERING EXTENSION SERVICE Executive Programs 200 Technology Way College Station, Texas 77845-3424 855.245.1614 (toll-free) execprograms@teex.tamu.edu TEEX.org/nerrtc Crisis Communications: Disasters present unique communications challenges, from coordinating the response efforts of multiple agencies to ensuring the information needs of both the press and the public are met. Developing strategies for planning, conducting and managing public information and warning—to include the role social media plays—can be vital to successful response and recovery efforts. Developing an Action Plan: From the lessons learned during seminar discussions and reading of the case study, a broad personal and jurisdictional action plan will be developed to guide future emergency preparedness planning.

Signature Kristin O'Lear, Executive Director Printed Name and Title June 29, 2024 Date Kodiak Island Borough Nonprofit Funding Application Page 160 of 166 AGENDA ITEM #9.a. Dear Kodiak Island Borough, I am writing this letter in support of the Brother Francis Shelter's request for 25,000.00 dollars under the non-profit Health & Social Service Grant funding. I am a current Brother Francis board member so I am privy to all the services the shelter provides and the need for funds so that the shelter can continue those services. The shelter not only provides a place to sleep for those that don't have one, but it also provides those that are underpaid and underserved the ability to get housing and or continue to stay in their housing location. The shelter also provides a nightly meal for those that cannot provide for themselves or their family. As we all know the cost of living in Kodiak has risen and wages cannot keep up with those costs. The individuals and families that are helped by the shelter provide an essential service in the community. They include but are not limited to our retail employees, cannery workers, food serves employee, handymen, widows and widowers. Many of the families the shelters aids have children that need a roof over their heads and nourishment in their bellies. I am aware that Kodiak has many other worthwhile non-profit organizations that serve as a vital resource for Kodiak, but without financial support for the Brother Francis Shelter we may lose our most vital resource and that is the families of Kodiak.

Nova Javier From: Mary Linscheid <mlinscheid@gmail.com> Sent: Thursday, July 11, 2024 3:03 PM To: Clerks Dear Clerk, I request that this letter be read into the record at tonight's assembly meeting by the clerk at the meeting. Thank you. Mary Linscheid 907-539-6828 July 11, 2024 Assembly Members Kodiak Island Borough 710 Mill Bay Rd. Kodiak, AK 99615 Dear Assembly Members, I am writing you this letter on behalf of Brother Francis Shelter Kodiak to show my support for a monetary grant through the Borough. I believe BFSK is deserving of the NonProfit Funding Grant because it provides essential services to financially struggling individuals and families who have limited resources. As a board member for 5+ years, 1 support BFSK because it provides a safe place to sleep when housing, both permanent and temporary, are at an all time high cost. In addition, it furnishes quality meals at a time that people are struggling to afford groceries. Not only does BFSK provide shelter, but it also assists in finding permanent housing for those who have difficulty navigating the steps necessary to acquire it. Finally, resources are brought to the shelter to provide all types of life coaching and counseling as well as basic medical services to those who struggle to access it. The staff at BFSK direct their finances carefully and host successful fundraisers and donation campaigns to help them maintain a well managed budget. However, your local support of a grant is also necessary when seeking matching funding. For these reasons, I hope you consider BFSK as a top contender for the NonProfit Funding Grant. Thank you for your time and consideration. Sincerely, Mary Linscheid BFSK, Chairperson Page 162 of 166 July 11, 2024 Kodiak Assembly Members, AGENDA ITEM #9.a. I would like to thank you for your support over the years to the non- profits of Kodiak. As a member of the Brother Francis Shelter for many years I have seen the valuable services that Brother Francis provides to our community. The shelter serves those that are homeless, as well as those who are Kodiak residents. Some of the services the staff at the shelter provide are: shelter for homeless, daily meals for both homeless and many other that are in need, connection to social services, assistance with applications for housing and public assistance. The HAP(homeless prevention program) provides clients with down payments to get into housing and also financial aide to keep clients in housing when they are in financial crisis. The shelter through the HSS(Homeless Stabilization Services) was able to house 75 clients this year. This program has been successful due to the dedication, hard work, and compassion of the Brother Francis staff. I am hoping that you will provide Brother Francis with a full grant to continue the work of supporting all those in need in the community of Kodiak. Thank you for this consideration, Ellie Werbe Page 163 of 166 Colleges 100,000 KoC 80,000 UAF 20,000 Total 100,000 H&SocServices 130,000 Bro Francis 20,000 KMXT 20,000 KWRCC 20,000 SCOK 20,000 Salvo 20,000 Hospice 5,000 Humane 5,000 KAMP 5,000 KANA 5,000 KATS 5,000 Kindness 5,000 130,000 E/C/R 41,000 Alutiiq 4,500 Red 3,500 Hope 4,500 GRAD 2,000 KAC 4,500 Maritime 4,500 Soil 4,500 Teen 6,300 Old Harbor 4,500 Rural Cap 1200 40,000 270,000 AWk5d67�0'-#9l.a. jart t 6n n -7- Page 164 of 166 0 Are you a single family residence? f L .es Self -Haul* Or Roll -Cart** BILLING UNITS Are you a Are you a i business? duplex or T - triplex?
