Goals
The
following is a list of goals the Comité would like to reach
in 2004-2005, addressing the educational, economic, social and housing
needs of families in this neighborhood.
• Research
the possibilities of low-income housing and co-housing in the Mesa
area for Comité families.
• Expand
working partnership with other community agencies throughout the
State.
• Start
a much needed after-school program for the children of the neighborhood,
due to the lack of youth amenities in the area (i.e., Boys &
Girls Club, YMCA). This would ideally include computer instruction,
daily snacks, arts and crafts, and academic tutoring.
• Develop
a childcare co-op for 2–4 year-olds in the afternoons.
• Develop
a community technology center.
• Develop
closer ties to appropriate City departments and community agencies.
• Start
an economic development program for adults in this neighborhood
such as a job bank and job training.
• Start
a micro-business venture utilizing the talents of our member families.
