Employment Class (presented by Francoise)  Concern raised by Marie: Do we have to be registered students of South Seattle Community College to use their services? Answer: yes  Concern raised by Francoise: South Seattle is too far away from Mary’s Place. Seattle Public Library may be better because it is closer and more accessible.  Suggestion from Feben: Look into Central Seattle Community College. It’s closer than South Seattle.

Criteria for Selecting Locations  Proximity to Mary’s Place (within walking distance, within one bus ride, etc)  How much does it cost? (free is ideal)  When is it available? (Is it available within the hours that Mary’s Place is open?)  How accessible is it? Can children be admitted or accompany the adults? Does it accommodate older adults?  Are there additional resources we need to bring to the class (like exercise equipment, gym clothes,…)  What is capacity of location or class? How many people can participate?  Are there prerequisites? If it is a class, do you need certain skills or have taken classes ahead of time?

Fitness Class (presented by Yvonne)  Do we want to just invite current Mary’s Place members, or do we want to invite lower income elderly residents nearby?  Mary’s Place will have to consider capacity, and see if it can accept additional members  Advertising/ flyers/ word-of-mouth/ street advertising/ bulletin boards of other organizations  Other nearby shelters (especially women’s shelters). Ask the nearby shelters ahead of time if you can present.  Get listed on websites and reports.  Maybe offer different classes for each age group
