Description:
Successful programs are welcoming and consider the needs of participants. It is not just the number of participants that indicate success - it is how reflective your participants are of the population of your town, city or jurisdiction. Equity in your program planning will help you identify who should you serve and why. What will be required to serve them and how? This session will help you to build an equity program planning toolkit for your organization. It will be presented by members of The City of Seattle’s Park and Recreation Department and The City of Seattle and King County’s Aging and Disabilities Services Division. Examples of services and programs from both will be shared.
Learning Objectives:
1. Attendees will be able to plan program offerings for diverse communities, abilities and identities.
2. Attendees will be able to identify what population resources are available to them.
3. Attendees will be able to create an equity embedded program.
