It's Sunday afternoon and our first scheduled workshop is tomorrow! I've spent the past week finalizing all of the translations for the workshop handout as well as having our facilitator (Claudia Viveros) and my advisor (Darcy Lear) go through the material to catch mistakes, improve the phrasing, etc... It's been quite a bit of work to get this together but it's great to finally have a tangible product! In addition to Claudia and Darcy, I also want to take time to thank the translators for this first workshop: Maggie West, Linda Chamiec-Chase, and Lily Smith. All of these people have been amazing and without them none of this project would be possible.
In addition to finalizing the workshop material, I also spent the last week doing a lot of advertising. This included talking to participants the ESL and computer classes that occur at the HRC as well as passing out flyers to the parents of the children who hang out in the center during the afternoon. Here's what the flyer looks like:
Hopefully our efforts are successful and we'll have a decent turn out tomorrow. I'll try to post a quick update tomorrow night to let y'all know how it goes.
Thanks,
Ben
