Join us for our March site visit to the Sciencenter!

We are so excited to be going to the Sciencenter for our March site visit! The Sciencenter is a community hub and learning space for families and kids of all ages. Join us as we take a guided tour through the exhibits learn more about plans for the future. Come prepared to ask questions and engage with us!

Site visits are an important part of our community engagement strategy and are a chance to connect with the people who are doing great work on the ground. It’s also a chance to see firsthand the staff’s enthusiasm for their mission, their commitment to it, and their hopes for the future. Our goal is to create an experience of co-discovery from engagement and dialogue during the visit. Our goals are to:

· Build trust and strengthen relationships
· Explore shared interest areas, share knowledge and identify possible new ways of working together to serve common goals
· Gain information beyond what is obtained from a written report

As a funder, we acknowledge and point out the power imbalance and we’ve made the promise to be guided by mutual respect, appreciation, and trust; approach each interaction as a partnership rather than a top-down relationship; and be a partner and ally. View our Site Visit Guidelines HERE.

If you are interested in either scheduling a site visit with us or joining us on an already-scheduled site visit, email Gloria at gcoicou@cftompkins.org.
