Summary of Further Inputs from Workshop Participants <br />Workshop participants used their own experiences and perspectives to expand on the insights gathered <br />from the qualitative research. The following is a recount of their feedback. <br />Older youth aged 18 -25 are seeking employment to finance themselves and often their families as <br />well. They value time to be social and hang out with friends. Many are still enrolled in school and seek <br />guidance on the decisions that will impact their lives. Without proper entertainment options — they may <br />choose dangerous alternatives, like "ditch parties. "This demographic would benefit from employment <br />opportunities, business training, classes to pursue hobbies and interests, and positive spaces for social <br />engagement as part of an ideal wellness service /center. <br />Weekday morning activities include commuting to work or school, eating at nearby coffee shops or <br />restaurants, or grocery shopping for things that they or their family may need. Evening activities include <br />time at the gym, outdoor fitness activities, and classes or hobby based activities. Weekend activities <br />include visits and outings with family, grocery shopping and spending time in downtown Santa Ana and <br />socializing with friends. <br />Younger adults aged 26 -39 are starting to establish their lives, and have a particular interest in <br />employment and educational opportunities, meeting others their age, starting families, childcare and <br />housing. They often need support accessing local information on these issue areas, and may struggle <br />for economic sustainability at this stage. They want to maintain relationships with family and friends <br />and seek a variety of food and entertainment spaces that allow them to spend time with others and <br />build these relationships. The types of needs vary widely across this demographic, but it was suggested <br />by workshop participants that when this demographic is downtown, "they want to feel connected to <br />their culture, who they are and where they come from. "This demographic tends to work during the <br />day. Common weekend and evening activities include exercise, classes and hobbies, spending time with <br />families and friends, grocery shopping for household necessities, and going out to bars and music venues. <br />Older adults aged 40 -64 are primarily focused on safety, stability of their employment, finances, access <br />to affordable health care, and the needs of their family members. As parents and grandparents they are <br />concerned about their family's wellbeing and want to satisfy their needs and demands. They want their <br />children to access good education and are concerned that they may fall subject to crime or dangerous <br />activities. They may work multiple jobs, but aspire for full time employment with medical benefits. It can <br />be very stressful for the individuals in this demographic, especially if they have low levels of education <br />and precarious work environments. <br />Morning activities include commuting to work or daily exercise routines for those that have flexible <br />work schedules. Evening activities comprise of exercise and recreational activities, shopping for groceries, <br />and meal times with friends and family. A large number of those interviewed in our qualitative sample <br />used the Latino Health Access (LHA) for their regular fitness activities or went for walks in their <br />neighborhood. Weekends are a time to share meals or go on outings with family members; to take care <br />of household chores and grocery shopping for the week; and to do fitness and recreational activities. <br />The Next rap WS—B-2 Ra Ana Wellness District: Astudy of derriand and supply for wellness goods and services <br />
