Visitacion Valley Back To School Event

A Sunnydale community event.
Date/Time: Thursday, August 17, 2017 from 9:00 am - 4:00 pm
Where: 
Sunnydale Community Room, 1654 Sunnydale Ave., San Francisco

This project was a collaboration of all the service providers in the Sunnydale neighborhood to stress the importance of school and education. Among those present at the event were Mayor Edwin Lee and Police Chief William Scott.

Mercy Housing led this joint effort. APA's Visitacion Valley Strong Families and the Boy & Girls Club were responsible for conceiving the event's educational component. Planning began in June. Flyers were distributed to Sunnydale's development as well as surrounding businesses to get the residents' attention. Each organization in the group had a hand in providing resources, prizes, and materials for the event. 

The event day started with residents of Sunnydale's development helping to clean up the neighborhood. After lunch, the kids received new backpacks, enjoyed games, and even got haircuts if so desired. Over 500 backpacks filled with school supplies were given out. Information for useful resources for the participating families was disseminated.

Chinatown Back To School Event

An event for our Chinatown neighbors.  All APA clients are welcome.
Date/Time: Thursday, August 3, 2017 from 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Where: APA, 10 Nottingham Place,  
San Francisco, CA 94133

An event to get our preschoolers to 8th graders ready and excited about going back to school by providing them with new backpack, school supplies, and books. APA staff and volunteers were there to help with disseminating information and resources for parents to help their child achieve academic success for the upcoming school year.

This was also an "open house" for us to introduce our program and services, and provide an opportunity for them to sign up and register for upcoming workshops, classes, support groups, and individual/family counseling and therapy sessions.

The event was promoted at schools in Chinatown/North Beach. Parents also spread the word via social media. The turnout doubled our expected number of 250. We made arrangements for the latecomers to return at a later date in order for us to replenish our backpack and school supplies.
