When the COVID-19 outbreak hit in March 2020, our STAR participants needed to keep learning and stay connected to their community. In a matter of days, our staff tailored face-to-face programs to virtual platforms.
And our STARs didn’t miss a beat. They quickly logged on to Zoom classes and Facebook workshops. And there, they brushed up on their math, read some good books, stretched in yoga classes, cooked meals, learned job skills and danced in Club STAR.
Since mid-March, they’ve engaged in hundreds of virtual experiences and counting. Today, virtual programs are a permanent and critical part of our curriculum, connecting STARs to engaging and innovative classes and activities–no matter where they are.
All programs on this page are open to all STARability participants and included in annual enrollment. You can also view them, along with our monthly socials and other participant events, in our STAR Connections calendar. Enroll in virtual Trailblazer Academy curriculum here.
Virtual programming is supported by grants from the Community Foundation of Collier County, Golisano Foundation, Richard M. Schulze Family Foundation and the Vasari Cares Foundation.
