DVSA’s model for project development and implementation begins and always comes back to community engagement through information dissemination, feedback solicitation, and project steering. It is an iterative and ongoing model, in which each process continues as we continue to add new elements to our projects.
Our programs begin with listening to issues identified by our community and other stakeholders through an extensive and ongoing engagement process. We then collect data, both in the form of existing information and data that we collect through our own citizen science and information gathering projects, and present this information back to our community in accessible and culturally relevant ways. Then, together with the community, we begin envisioning solutions to the issues we identified in our information gathering stage, while also providing the youth will skills to do this. Finally, we begin developing pilot projects and prototypes, and then scale up for widespread impact.
Our fiscal sponsor is the Seattle Parks Foundation.
And counting!
