Elevate Washington is powered by the critical information that youth program providers share with us in our member system. From demographics to funding streams to program content—these data can show us who’s being served and where gaps exist. If you haven’t already, join hundreds of other Washington expanded learning programs and become a member!
When you join Elevate Washington, your sites and programs are listed in our youth program directory. The directory is geared toward families, advocates and young people seeking a free, comprehensive tool to find and evaluate direct-service programming for youth, ages 5 to 24.
Members benefit from paid and organic search engine and social media marketing designed to help people find and access the programming they need.
Elevate Washington is continually working to improve and add value for its members. We are currently developing these new tools:
Elevate Washington collects information about organizations, the site locations where programs are offered and details about each program. Some organizations have one site and one program and others have multiple sites and many programs.
Information in the member system is structured hierarchically with the Organization at the top, then Site(s), and then Program(s).
Each level has a unique profile where you enter the information for your organization, site(s) and program(s). Details range from contact information to youth demographics. An overview of the data we collect can be viewed here.
If your organization has been approved by Elevate Washington, then your sites and programs are automatically listed on the youth program directory. (You have the option to unpublish programs.)
Once your organization is approved and sites and programs have been added, you can invite other staff to join and assign them access roles.
Click the JOIN NOW button and then provide your name, email address, and a password. You'll receive an email verification. Follow the link in the email to log in to the member system.
Once you're logged in, you'll need to create your organization profile. You'll be asked to include basic information for one site and one program as well. If you already see your information in the youth program directory, you'll be prompted to claim your organization. Simply enter the name as it appears in the directory.
Elevate Washington will review your profile submission within 2 business days. You can continue to add information during this time, including additional site and program profiles.
Elevate Washington shines a light on youth programs and youth-serving organizations across our state. We tell community-connected stories that focus on great programming, innovation, leadership and data-informed insights.
