Why do we talk about “responsive programming,” and what does that really mean?
A critical part of planning a new creative aging program is determining which spaces are most appropriate within your facility and/or across your community to host a program.
Assessing your own facility’s space or a partner’s space will assist you to determine the artforms you can successfully and safely implement.
Surveying prospective participants on which type of program they are most interested in should follow space assessments.
This approach will ensure successful enrollment, reduce attrition, and potentially generate a waiting list, which is helpful when making the case for future program funding.
