Pilot: 1 on 1
  1. Recap of last call (e.g., root causes and strategies)
    1. Did you have an opportunity to discuss root causes with staff?
      1. They had an internal meeting to discuss root causes further. They added one new point and were able to identify 2 root causes to prioritize
  2. Returning to root causes – what might make direct recruitment of youth challenging?
    1. Anything to add to our current list based on conversations with staff or your own thoughts:
      1. Perception of abstinence programming
      2. Lack of clarity of what the program is
      3. Zoom fatigue
      4. Youth capacity to participate – families may only have one computer
      5. Staff are new to recruitment – less familiar with outreach methods to capture youth
      6. Where to find youth during the pandemic? Especially as can’t get into traditional places, like community centers
      7. New program/staff, have to learn new software and marketing tool
      8. Abstinence is not promoted
    2. Prioritize top 2-3 causes
      1. Staff are new to recruitment – less familiar with outreach methods to capture youth
      2. Abstinence is not promoted
  3. Strategy discussion
    1. Idea from last call: Using youth ambassadors to cultivate a social media space for youth
      1. Still working on recruiting youth to run social media space. Want to have a separate space for them.
    2. New idea from current call: Staff are reaching out to different, new providers providing new information. Testing out new promotion strategies to reach new clients effectively.
      1. This is a new strategy they brought up during the meeting. They agreed to stick with the youth strategy above though. This may be brought up further as our meetings progress.
    3. Other ideas that address your prioritized root causes?
      1. Possible plans
        1. Add current youth to follow the social media spaces.
          1. Instagram is their top market site.
          2. Possibly do a survey on which social media site resonates with their youth group.
        2. Migrate videos over to these social media spaces
        3. Working on two separate sites (one for kids, one for adults)
