Please find the Sankofa Outreach Connection April report submission. Sincerely, LaTasha DeLoach, LMSW Sankofa Outreach Connection Co -Founder & President cm O'Das Sanko�a Outreack Connection City of Iowa City: Human Rights Commission Grant: Social Justice Racial Equity Reporting Date: April 1, 2018 Sisters @ the Center Grant Report Recap: Sisters at the Center's goal is to address barriers to health and wellness for women of color, in Iowa City and the surrounding community. By design, it consists of a series of programs intended to educate, while simultaneously creating a sense of connectedness for women of color. The main objective of the Sisters at the Center program is to address disparate access to affordable recreational facilities and health -related information. Lack of access to this information often serves as a barrier to general health and wellness for women of color in Iowa City and in the surrounding community. Since July 1st, 2017, we have been using grant funding to address this objective through a variety of programming. We have been making progress on our primary goals: 1) to increase the overall wellness of women of color in our community, 2) to decrease social isolation of women of color, and 3) to connect women of color to existing spaces such as recreation centers, walking/biking trails, and free to low cost amenities that increase wellness in our community. Since November 1st, we have been offering programming in various local facilities, to help accommodate those that want to participate in health and wellness options. We have, and continue to offer food and nutrition classes at different local facilities to provide information and healthy alternative options for traditional meals. We plan to assist in bringing more women to our local farmer's markets this winter for community social engagement, as well as exploration of more fruit and vegetable options. This Spring, our goal is to create and care for a 319.541.0669 1 www.sankofaoutreach.com I sankofaoutreach@gmail.com community plot to grow vegetables that women in our program can share free of charge. We are making progress on our outcomes to: 1) Increase of facility utilization numbers: program participation numbers: This fall we partnered with the City of Iowa City Recreation Department to enroll women into a work out class called Fit Club at the Robert A. Lee Recreation Center which was taught by a member of our online S.I.P.sters group. We also conducted along with our Fall Power In Wellness Health Fair women a Hip Hop Aerobics class and some local vendors participated including the local police representative and a member of the fire department. The women really enjoyed the class and we look foward to finding other ways to engage more women in this class this summer. We also have a day at the Farmer's Market that is coming up this summer in June. 2) An increased connection to the community and an overall increase in the knowledge of City resources: More women have attended community events including resturant meet ups, movies during Women's History Month, we saw increase attendance of UI lecture series. Many women believed that they would not have known about many of the opportunities if they were not members of the organization. We presented to the community our Power In Wellness Health Fair where we were able to get many organizations together and we gave able few health and wellness doorprizes such as a starterjuicer, a free massage, a free facial. We also had a Stepping and Llne Dancing Class fro six weeks which reached and was enjoyed by our more middle aged members. For an organization that is intergenerational in its reach we feel we are reaching the women set out to serve. 3) Healthier lifestyle choices by our members: We love our partnership with Hy-Vee! Our recent Cooking Class in February included learning delicious substitutes like mashed cauliflower instead of potatoes and other vegetarian and vegan options for meatless meals. We were also able to have a free yoga session where women were able to participate and some women brought their children. We also had one additional Juicing Class which many of the elders women from our respective communities where very engaged and appreciative as they found it very beneficial. 4) 15% increase S.O.C. membership numbers: We have gone above and beyond our 15% increase. When we first submitted this grant we had about 300 women and now we have increase to well over 400 women by November 2017 and now we have almost 600 women who are connecting with other women and learning about resources, employment opportunities, social opportunities with 319.541.0669 1 www.sankofaoutreach.com I sankofaoutreach@gmail.com other women as well as health and wellness options for not only themselves but for their families. We currently have engaged in, or have planned the following activities: • Kickboxing - We are having a Mother and Daughter Kickboxing class coming up this Spring • Sankofa Outreach Connection is sponsoring the 8th Annual Juneteenth Commemoration's Health Fair section where we will pay for all vendors table fees. • We also have a Healthy Grilling Class happening in May 2018 where we are partnered with Hy-Vee again. • We are partnering with the Iowa City Farmer's Market to hold an event or gathering at the Farmer's Market in June as one of our final uses of grant dollars to connect women with the local resources at the Farmer's Market. • We just completed our connections conference/summit called Brighter Future Focused (See results below: Summit Results) Summit Results Quantitative Findings.

With 100% of respondents stating they would be very likely to attend a similar event in the future, the organization hopes to turn the summit into a yearly event. The majority of attendees indicated they were either very satisfied or satisfied with the various aspects of the events. The event was successful because it brought together a diverse group of individuals, and a large number of respondents found the data provided helpful. An aspect of the mission of the event was to bring individuals together, and 18 respondents stated what they liked most about the event was the discussions, which means we were successful, at least partially in fulfilling our mission of the event.
