2 Statements & Search Criteria Mission Statement ENB s mission is to invest in the future of our region by creating opportunities for English language learners to pursue their educational, economic and civic aspirations. Background Statement Since 2001, English for New Bostonians (ENB) has served over 1,000 English language learners annually by providing funding, training and technical assistance to organizations that offer ESOL classes. ENB offers individuals and institutions that are interested in investing in life-changing ESOL programs a system-wide approach to improving ESOL programs across the state. In addition, ENB also advocates for increased services to address the serious gap between demand for ESOL services and available supply. An integral piece of the ENB approach is its English Works Campaign, a targeted initiative focused on immigrant employee/employer needs relative to ESOL, especially in the workplace. ENB was launched in 2001 following a series of meetings hosted by the Mayor s Office of New Bostonians (ONB, now the Mayor's Office for Immigrant Advancement, MOIA) to identify challenges facing Boston immigrants. Among the top concerns cited by over 150 leaders from diverse communities was the lack of ESOL resources. ENB was founded by ONB in collaboration with the Mayor s Office of Workforce Development, the Boston Foundation and several leading Boston-area private foundations, to address the urgent need for English classes for Boston immigrants. Together with community leaders, they crafted a solution to address the immediate need for ESOL, as well as the long-term imperative to expand Boston's ESOL system. ENB has launched initiatives such as ESOL for Parents and Caregivers, whose model of curriculum development, field-testing, refinement and evaluation, and then expansion, was used to launch ESOL for Entrepreneurs in The organization offers tested strategies such as distance learning and supporting grassroots, emerging programs that reach isolated populations that would not otherwise access ESOL. 2

3 Impact Statement In the last year, ENB 1) Made grants to 26 programs, serving 1266 participants. 2) Promoted systems change with targeted grants including Pre-Vocational ESOL (now known as ESOL for Employment) to improve outcomes, build field knowledge.targeted grants were made to 11 high-performing programs to improve specific student outcomes and develop expertise in the field. Four Pre-Voc/Voc programs increase the availability of high-quality pre voc and vocational ESOL at all levels and increase the number of learners who transition into skills training, new/better jobs, bridge programs, or post-secondary education. 3) Expanded evaluation capacity to assess longitudinal and community impact. Using ENB s Data Collection Plan is drives data analysis and evaluation to inform strategy. The Plan enables reporting at the student level and analysis by demographics such as native language, education level, etc. ENB also measures indicators specific to targeted programs, e.g., job/career-related placements, increased wages, etc. We are improving our ability to capture longitudinal learner progress. 4) Increased ENB s long-term sustainability. After careful analysis, ENB's board voted to incorporate and ENB became an independent 501c3 on July 1, This follows 13 years under the sound fiscal management of The Boston Foundation. In Fall 2015, ENB completed its first successful audit with Aronson, Alexander and Finning CPA. ENB s Finance Committee streamlined financial operations, implemented a 5-year plan, redesigned the budget to delineate revenues and expenses by program area. Staff is building an individual donor base. In the coming year, our goals are to 1) Continue building a high-quality ESOL system in Boston, 2) Improve ESOL learner outcomes and impact,such as gains in English language skills and school engagement by immigrant parents in our ESOL for Parents initiative; 3) Increase organizational sustainability through enhanced governance structures, communications and diversification of funding. Needs Statement ENB s most pressing needs are to 1. Add additional resources to the ESOL system in Boston in order to address the unmet demand for services among the city s burgeoning immigrant communities. ENB strives to add new slots and to promote high-quality classes that help immigrants to integrate in their communities, schools, workplaces and other institutions. 2.Connect with businesses that employ immigrant workers to promote ESOL partnerships; 3. Add dedicated staff to the task of promoting the ESOL issue and engaging volunteers in teaching English. 4. Expand ENB s individual donor base. 5. Increase board membership to increase finance, fundraising and business expertise while maintaining strong immigrant community representation. 3

4 CEO/Executive Director Statement An investment in ENB is an investment in the education and economic vitality of Boston s lowincome immigrant families and communities.our 25 programs provide a gateway to immigrants participation in Boston s civic process and communities; in particular, our Pre-Voc/Voc ESOL and English at Work Initiatives help prepare immigrants to adapt to the U.S. labor market and to gain a foothold in the local economy. With the support of ENB staff and consultants, professional teachers help students learn English and make a plan, for example, to move from an immigrant job in a restaurant or factory to a better-paying mainstream job in a hotel, or to enter a skills training or certificate program with a higher language competency level. ENB works with programs to adapt to an employment focus, engage employers in their programs, and improve economic outcomes for students. ENB offers funders and donors an investment strategy that addresses urgent community needs and provides assurance of effectiveness, transparency, and accountability.grassroots agency representatives sit with private and government stakeholders and ENB staff on our Board and Program Committee, which reviews each grant proposal before it is funded, conducts site visits to funded programs, and monitors outcomes. Community reps also help identify neighborhood needs, and set priorities and design culturally appropriate services. As a convener of diverse stakeholders, ENB inspires collaboration among private, public and community agencies working to strengthen skills, improve quality of life and create opportunities for civic engagement for low income immigrants. The City supports ENB through the Neighborhood Jobs Trust, and provides leadership, the Mayor s leadership, outreach to philanthropic organizations and events such as the Office for New Bostonians We are Boston gala. ENB strategizes closely with the city around grant making, using our private funding to inject flexibility and learner options into the system, while building neighborhood capacity. ENB fills gaps such as programs for people with low literacy and for parents with school age children, while testing new approaches. Board Chair Statement "As immigrant community leaders, private funders, and city officials, we feel there is an urgent need in our region to build capacity and increase the availability of quality ESOL instruction. ENB impresses us with their ability to work on a systematic level through a variety of different methods. The work ENB does benefits not only the immigrant community, but the Boston community at large. Whether it's the Distance Learning ESOL program or the English Works Campaign that engages employers to become part of the solution, they ve proven to be a valuable and important partner that gets results." -ENB Board Co-Chair, Jesús Gerena, Family Independence Initiative-Boston Service Categories Adult Education Ethnic/Immigrant Services Fund Raising & Fund Distribution Geographic Areas Served ENB programs are in 15 Boston neighborhoods, serving approximately 47% Latinos, 16% Asian Americans, 13% Haitians, 8% Cape Verdeans, 6% Africans, 6% Brazilians, and 5% other.

Through a partnership with the Mayor s Office for New Bostonians and Boston Public Schools Adult Education, ENB supports programs that are located in community agencies, elementary schools, and a Head Start Program. ENB helps parents increase their English skillsandtheir knowledge of the Boston early education and K-12 systems so they understand the options available, make informed decisions, and advocate for their children. Being able to communicate in English also allows parents to be more involved and active in their kids education and in schools themselves. ENB also has developed a 25-unit unified curriculum including lessons on MCAS, how to read report cards, School choice, and expectations of parents. The curriculum is shared city-wide, enabling teachers and community groups to connect parents with their kids education.

ESOL programs will forge relationships with local schools in immigrant rich neighborhoods of Boston. Immigrant adult learners will improve their English language skills and their ability to support their children s academic success. Specifically, parents will be able to assist their children with homework and at home reading, increase their communication with their children s teachers, understand how to advocate for their children, be able to navigate school choice, understand report cards and MCAS,etc. ENB makes annual site visits to all funded programs, collects semi-annual reports from sites on student demographics, learning gains as measured by standardized tests, and progress toward goals. ENB conducts pre- and post- self-assessments by students about their involvement with their children s school and education. ENB also surveys program staff who receive training and TA from our team to evaluate our effectiveness. 8

I have learned about ways to read to my young daughter that will help her to be a better reader. I ve also learned how to read my son s report card, and what the MCAS is that my son took for the first time this year. Now I can help my son with his homework. He won a medal at school because he is good in math and does all his homework and helps the other children in the class. ABCD motivates us to participate in all community activities. I joined the Sumner School Parent Council, and now I am the Treasurer. I encourage other Sumner parents to attend Parent Council meetings. We support activities at School. I also help out in my daughter s classroom at HeadStart where I helped update a Family Resource Guide. I am training to become a parent Ambassador to talk to other parents in the community about opportunities for helping their young children with their learning and education. 9

11 Program Short Term Success v Work with business partners in selected neighborhoods to conduct planning process; assess needs, logistics, and benchmarks; and customize curricula and evaluation. o Assess markets served, learner English levels, and class design and location needs; barriers that may prevent successful completion by participants; and ways in which English gains might strengthen business performance. o Design cross-site curricula and data collection tools/evaluation methods, including formative use of student feedback and quizzes to refine week-to-week delivery. v Fund and support 3-4 provider/partner programs, each serving owners/employees, for at least 4 hrs/week over two cycles (ranging from 8 to 20 weeks). o Help individual sites to develop work plans and goals. o Provide at least 2 on-site TA sessions per program to help them meet goals. o Convene 3-4 trainings for ESOL providers and business partners on workplace needs analysis, tailoring curricula, measuring business outcomes, and as-needed topics. o Convene regular review and sharing meetings with business association leaders, teachers, and ESOL program coordinators. v Convene ESOL for Entrepreneurs Advisory Group whose members include a successful immigrant business owner, and representatives from Boston s Office of Business Development, The Center for Women and Enterprise, U.S. Small Business Administration, Tech Goes Home small business program, a bank, a funder, and an adult education leader. The group serves as an expert sounding board and source of guest speakers for the classes, and provides overall vision to the initiative. v Evaluate and disseminate results. o Collect quantitative data and qualitative feedback (please see monitoring section). o Hold two convenings upon completion of program-end analysis: 1) grantees and their business partners to review data as a cohort, compile lessons and best practices, and discuss next steps, and 2) grantees, business partners, funders, city and workforce sector representatives and other stakeholders to learn about initiative outcomes and ways to support its success and replication. 11

12 Program Long term Success The goal of the ESOL for Entrepreneurs Initiative is to enable business people to improve their English skills in order to expand their markets, better access business assistance resources, and help invigorate local economies. Classes target primarily business owners, but employees are eligible. ESOL for Entrepreneurs offers classes at requested times and locations, with curricula customized to business goals. Many U.S. cities face challenges similar to Boston s being home to large immigrant populations who struggle for economic stability yet having ESOL systems inadequate to meet the breadth and depth, and perhaps more importantly, the diversity and specificity of need, for English language instruction. ENB envisions ESOL for Entrepreneurs as a model that will spawn curricula, methodology and partnerships specific to the needs and interests of businesses served, and replicable across Boston and possibly nationwide through sharing of best practices as they evolve. For example, a curriculum, with vocabulary and customer services skills specific to nail and hair salons, could be readily adapted whether for Vietnamese, Haitian Kreyol, or Spanishspeaking learners. This Initiative is intentionally being developed as customizable and replicable. 12

13 Program Success Monitored By Anticipated Outcomes and Success Indicators: Programs will submit quantitative and qualitative data at the end of each session, as well as mid-point, to enable ENB to help programs improve on any shortcomings and to cross-pollinate best practices. In addition to the information captured through tools described below, all programs will used BEST Plus standardized tests to pre- and post-test learners. Participant Surveys: A post-program survey aligned with the main units in the curriculum will use a Likert scale (a social research method) to measure students learning gains in content areas, such as, describing my business in English, using English with customers, writing a business plan, marketing to new customers, knowledge of licenses, permits, insurance, taxes, and how to communicate with city and state officials (inspectors, police)." Students also will note examples of how they used or plan to use new skills in the future. Teacher Reporting: With an eye toward curriculum refinement, teachers are documenting students most significant needs/interests, and experiences students report as resulting from classes (communicating effectively with city inspectors, confidence approaching customers). Site Visits: Though labor intensive, site visits enable continuous quality improvement and inform ENB s investments. Our Program Manager, Board members, and sometimes our Executive Director visit each one of our programs at its halfway mark. Direct observation reveals program progress and successes, professional development needs, and any other issues. Individual conversation with students, who typically give high marks to teachers, do reveal needs, such as wanting more practice time or feeling left behind. Post-visit reports are sent to Program and Executive Directors with commendations and recommendations. 13

14 Examples of Program Success The first ESOL for Entrepreneurs class culminated December 2, and its impact is already being felt. In the words of the owner of Telepage: When I came to the U.S. I studied English for 3 years. But this class is different. We do pronunciation and the teacher had us do a business plan and a slogan. I know my English has progressed. Recently, with our new telephone inventory, there have been a lot of different kinds of people coming into my store Americans, Moroccans, Filipinos. They don t speak Spanish so I need to help them in English. I need to know what to offer them and help to them feel more secure in what they are buying. 14
