Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

At least 60% of participants will report this as a new experience or an activity that is new to them. At least 75% of parents will report this experience helped build a positive connection with their child. Participant counts and ethnic background will be tracked when participants register for the activities. Participants will be asked to complete a short-written evaluation at the end of each workshop or class that will indicate their satisfaction with the class topic, date/time format, and their interest in exploring future arts activities. They will also have the opportunity to reflect on the experience as a way of building a positive connection with their child. We will document how many people participated in the activity at the Community Wellness Expo.

Measurable Outcome(s)

Classes served 55 youth and 51 adults, and Expo activity approx. 100 youth and 32 adults. 100% of respondents said it was a new activity and 81% reported positive connection. 100% were satisfied and 93% said excellent. 93% very likely to attend a similar activity. We collected written surveys, which indicated Friday is the best day for these classes and best time is evening, followed by after school
