Responses are anonymous, and help shed light on areas of improvement from a coordinator standpoint. Discussion on coalition naming- opened dialogue regarding inclusive titles. Current name implies the coalition only serves Quilcene when in reality the grant covers areas where Quilcene high school residents live. Due to Brinnon’s geographic proximity and secondary students attending Quilcene HS, it could be appropriate to change the coalition name.
