Langa Focus Group

My first focus group today went really well. Thank you all for your support. If they all go like today, I will be in good shape. As one of the LoveLife Youth Centre staff drove me into Langa, I had a pretty good feeling about everything, and it worked out somehow. I didn't have much time to take photos, but here are a few of the center and its facilities.



I had nine youth come, which is great. For focus groups like this, anywhere from 6-10 is good. The youth were really inspiring, energetic and wicked-smart. They gave me great feedback on MYMsta and thoughts/ideas I think LoveLife will appreciate. I had such a good time meeting them all. Below are a few photos of a couple of youth who participated in the group. They use a small radio studio LoveLife has set up to teach teens how to produce their own radio pieces. I also took a few photos of younger kids playing foosball with another one keeping score for a ping-pong match.




A couple of them asked when I was coming back, and I really wished I could tell them I was. Maybe someday...
