j DUBLIN SENIOR CENTER ADVISORY COMMITTEE
MEETING DATE: AUGUST 7, 2014
SUBJECT: Senior Center Outreach Strategy
Report Prepared by Anna Hudson, Recreation Coordinator
ATTACHMENTS: None
RECOMMENDATION: Receive report, brainstorm and discuss.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT: None
DESCRIPTION: At the June Advisory Committee meeting, CM Krausnick asked
about the status of the Outreach Subcommittee. Staff is providing this report to provide status and to
solicit ideas for outreach strategies.
Outreach is defined as "an activity of providing services to populations who might not otherwise have
access to those services." One outreach strategy may be to provide an "educational role, to raise the
awareness of existing services, or establishing new activities/services to fulfill a specific need."
Staff suggests having a brainstorm session with the goal of identifying new ways and activities to attract
a new group of senior "populations or cohorts" to the Dublin Senior Center.
i
During the brainstorming session, the Advisory Committee is encouraged to "think outside the box" and
come up with new activities, classes and/or programs to be offered.
