Girls Program to Empower and Educate
To have an all girls camp for young girls between 8-16 to help empower them to be better, do better, make better decisions, be more respectful, and accountable. To educate to better prepare them for each school year, technology. I would love for this program to be within the community I live, South Seattle.
This proposal is being evaluated
Type of funding: Programs and services (non-capital)
Rough cost estimate: Under $500,000
Evaluation notes:
✅ This idea could be implemented without changing current policy or law.
✅ This idea is within the City's jurisdiction.
✅ This idea doesn't name a specific vendor.
✅ This idea would not incur costs indefinitely.
Justification: The City would have to assess if gender-specific facilties is the preferred choice for program expansion at this time. Additionally, what would be the focus of the camp programming (sports, arts, etc)?
Other notes: I would like input from Recreation to assess the feasibility/want for programming like this.
Thank you for sharing your idea. This idea and its evaluation have been forwarded to the budget delegates. They will use this information to group together similar ideas, narrow down options based on community needs, and develop fully detailed proposals for you and your community to vote on in October 2023.
