[YEP-DC] “Town Hall Conversation” : Transcribing Opportunity

Would you like to play an important volunteer role in creating community dialogue here in DC? 

Do you have a laptop computer that you can use and are you good at inputting synthesizing information? 

Would you like to be a part of DCTV's maiden voyage into "Town Hall Conversations" on Saturday, May 19^th from 9:30am-11:30am?

DCTV, DC's own public access television provider (www.dctv.org ) in partnership with the DC Children and Youth Investment Trust Corporation (www.cyitc.org) will be holding three, simultaneous "Town Hall Conversation" on the topic of Out-of-School Time programs…

ü  How do young people benefit from them? 

ü  What role do they fill in the District's youth-serving landscape? 

ü  What do we need to do to make them better?

For this event we are looking for three volunteers with an interest in youth-work and community discussion to synthesize and input the community response from these three discussions – and either save it to a flash drive which we will provide or email it back to DCTV studios – where staff will cull your synthesis into a raft of questions to be put before a moderated panel of Out-of-School Time experts  whose discussion will be broadcast live. 

The locations for these three "Town Hall Conversations" from 9:30am-11:30am on Saturday, May 19^th will be….

Ø  DCTV Studios at 901 Newton Street, SE (Big mansion in the middle of lawn right next to the Brookland/CUA Metro Station)

 

Ø  The Capital View branch of the DC Public Libraries at 5001 Central Avenue, SE (5 blocks from the Benning Road Metro Station)

 

Ø  The Martin Luther King, Jr. branch of the DC Public Libraries at 901 G Street, NW (2 blocks from the Gallery Place/Chinatown Metro Station)

 

If you can commit to filling one of these three, key, scribe/synthesizer roles (and have a laptop you can bring with you to use), please contact Trust Director of Programming and Curricula Development, Peter Guttmacher (pguttmacher@cyitc.org 202-939-1399) to make further arrangements.  This will be the first in a series of "Town Hall Conversations" which DCTV will undertake, and there is potential for continued involvement on this exciting project.
