Since further evaluating my original plan to host a community event with donation drives and resource connections, I have discussed a more subtle approach on my issue with community leaders and school administrators. Instead of going big right away, we (COCA members & directors) have decided to plan an outline for a“feeder” survey which we would implement in school first before taking it anywhere else. This “feeder” survey would essentially cover a larger ground in terms of all of the issues us COCA members focused on. This survey would ask questions surrounding homelessness, mental health, bullying, gun advocacy, & the need for more diversity in offered programs at school. By adding a variety of questions on this survey, the students taking it wouldn’t feel obligated to label themselves by answering a survey surrounding just one specific issue, but can answer to anything they need help with and still have sense of privacy. Through this survey each of us (COCA members) will be receiving data on our issues, basically feeding into each of our projects (hence the name) in which we can use that data in more active steps.
