BECAUSE WE CARE

Ensure that participants know that they have an outlet to express their thoughts, opinions and concerns in a safe way. Provide a regular system for checking in with your participants on the program. You can incorporate reflection activities or simply ask a consistent closing/opening question. If problems or concerns with the program come up, have a mechanism for checking back in on that concern. Don’t let every opinion direct your program, but don’t let concerns go unaddressed, either.
