1. Is this worth trying here?

What we hope will change: Offers former Interactors a safe bridge from school-based service into adult or age-appropriate opportunities, preserving school and youth-protection boundaries.

What is happening in our club or community now?What is the smallest useful version we could try? What will we leave out?
