As part of this commitment to local engagement, over 162 Santa Ana youth participated in a <br />summer outreach effort to gather feedback and encourage youth involvement in the update of <br />the Santa Ana General Plan. Their input resulted in the creation of an easy to understand <br />infographic, the establishment of a social media campaign utilizing a customized hashtag <br />(#SantaAnaGeneralPlan), and a series of pop-up events throughout Santa Ana. <br />The meetings attracted a wide range of stakeholders representing various constituencies across <br />the City including seniors, business leaders, community advocacy groups, youth, neighborhood <br />association leaders, mobile home park residents, school parents and neighbors from different <br />geographic areas of the City. Each meeting was able to reach a different segment of the <br />population.
