Referral Response:
TO: Councilman Sarantou
THROUGH: Abby Arnold, Deputy Director
FROM: Joe Fausnaugh, Director Parks and Youth Services
We ask our program partners submit detailed reporting at the conclusion of their programming services. Most of our summer programs are still actively engaging kids so we have very little data returned at this point. Therefore, I don’t have the information available to provide “participation To Date” data. We also don’t have the ability sort 2024 data on a “To Date” criteria.
I can report that program partners are informally reporting good participation in programs. We have been performing site visits at multiple programs per week and have been very pleased with the numbers of kids at the programs as well as the effectiveness of the engagement through the programs.
