Running Hours: 4 hours Total hours: 19 hours
On Saturday April 27th, I met up with my mentor for a youth head count walk around in the Bay View district. Though this activity was supervised by the At The Crossroads staff, it was up to us younger youth to do the walk and get an estimated count of who we thought were living in the streets. This helped us to understand more about how we saw things because what one teenager would think the ideal visual of a homeless would be, others did not. This taught us team work at the same time of also being aware of our surroundings. This activity was a experience that I enjoyed because I met many different youth members with the same interest as me as far as reaching out to other less fortunate youth members in any way possible. This activity ran from 1 pm-5 pm with minor breaks in between. We later had a BBQ thrown by the At The Crossroads staff thanking us for being apart of this experience.
