After months of negotiation the 2009 Yesler 2014 Program has been approved and budgeted for funding from the Seattle Housing Authority's Executive Board!!!
This years program will begin recruiting in April and applications will be posted at the Yesler Terrace Management Office as well as the Community Center.
This year's program will focus on DESIGN. This means that focus will be placed on community assessment, skills development around design, drawing, model building, and assessing, planning, and learning the tool required for the design process.
This year the Seattle Department of Transportation (SDOT), Department of Planning and Development (DPD), Seattle University, University of Washington, the Urban Land Institute (ULI), American Planning Association (APA), and DK Architects will be working with Creative Community Builders, LLC to make this year better, more engaging, and enjoyable for all that participate.
There are only 8 positions this year for new enrollees, but there are two Intern spots for older teens to work and learn management skills!!
We are excited and look forward to getting the process started for recruitment.
