assignment four part two

Planned Parenthood will continue the blog. The blog was established before I agreed to work with them, and they plan on continueing the blog after the semester is over. Blogging is a cheap, inobtrusive, effective way of communicating with people that are perusing your site. Blogging can be used in conjunction with other action plans and can help coordinate events.

The specifics as to who will continue the blog in the long term is up in the air and this is a concern for the extended life of the blog. I plan on posting blogs in the spring semester on a vonlunteer basis, and I talked with Amy about some grass-roots organizers that would be excellent candidates for continueing the blog. Amy discussed an upcoming meeting in the Twin Cities that will also have an impact in shaping the long-term course Planned Parenthood will take in reaching out for community support and involvement. One of the topics to be discussed at this meeting is blogging. The role blogging will take in the future of Planned Parenthood while likely be partially decided at the upcoming meetings.
