How Can I Improve Access to Outdoor Recreational Opportunities to Underprivileged or Low-Income Youth?
Driving Questions I Must Answer vs. How I Will Learn
1. What prevents youth from recreating?
2. What constitutes low-income or underprivileged?
3. What systems are already in place to allow youth to recreate?
4. What recreational activities are relevant to youth in Jackson and which are they interested in?
5. What liability is involved in youth outdoor recreation?
6. What equipment costs are involved in youth recreation?
7. What family work is required to effectively integrate youth into the outdoor recreation culture?
