Youth - Meeting 2
I met with the youth again last night and distributed the surveys. I received a total of 22 surveys and will possibly be receiving more in the near future. The group surveyed was a combination of male and females from different ethnic backgrounds and ranged in age from 14-17. I will begin analyzing the results and will have that completed this weekend. Below is a copy of the survey which was distributed. This same survey will be distributed to the Elderly as well.
Elderly Meeting
I met with a group from a senior center on Thursday October 30. They were very informative on how they felt about the youth. They feel that the youth aer not provided with leadership and support and are very willing to step up to fill in that gap for the youth. They felt that they had a lot to offer the youth, but were a little skeptical on what the youth could provide for them. After much discussion some of the seniors believed that there were some things they could learn from the youth such as technology aspects. The main thing they focused on was having a view of the youth and making sure that the seniors had their own area they could socialize in. They enjoy being with the youth but also need their own space.

Youth Fears regarding the interaction
Please post here any fears or concerns you have regarding the interaction in the community center.
School Aged Youth Activities
Please post here any activities you would like to see included in the community center. Please also mention if you would participate in these activities with the elderly or preschool children. For example a wii tournament against the elderly.
Group Spaces Vs. Community Spaces
Please post your views on creating spaces for the three different groups (preschool children, school age youth, and the elderly) vs. community spaces. For example should there be spaces for each group to go to on their own or should it be one big open community space? How should the spaces be regulated time wise? Please post any information you would like to share and feel free to comment on each other's comments.
