According to the most conservative estimates, individual and community investors can expect a social
return on investment of at least $4.89 for every dollar invested in youth intervention programs.
The social impact of a donation to Bolder Options is even greater when the cost of putting a youth
convicted of shoplifting through a Juvenile Correctional Facility ($40,200) is compared with the cost
of one year with Bolder Options ($2,400). Moreover, instead of simply returning the youth to the environment
that brought them to trouble in the first place, Bolder Options is a long-term solution, teaching youth
life skills and facilitating supportive friendships in the midst of their challenging environments.
By donating to Bolder Options, you can also feel confident knowing that you’re investing in a program that works.
Over 80 percent of the youth who graduate our one-year program do not return to the system from which they were
referred.
