Please also <br />explain how the program aligns with the Town of Chapel Hill and Carrboro's Human Services Program <br />Results Framework and/or Orange County's BOCC Goals and Priorities (250 words or less). <br />12000 12000 <br />Burwell's visitor services provide historical education, tours, programs, and other <br />services. This aligns with the following BOCC goal: "Ensure a high quality of life & <br />lifelong learning that champions diversity, education at all levels, libraries, parks, <br />recreation, and animal welfare." The target populations are adults and school- <br />aged children of all backgrounds; our tours, lessons, and experiences are <br />carefully researched in order to offer accurate and engaging programs to our <br />diverse audience. Our goal is to maintain a safe site and to provide free and <br />inspiring visitor services for all. The Burwell School has been an instrumental part <br />of Hillsborough and Orange County's historic landscape since the 1970s. We <br />welcome visitors of all ages, both in-person and online, to learn about the girls' <br />academy, Elizabeth Keckly and other people of color, and life in the nineteenth <br />century. Our programs are designed to promote an interest in historical learning <br />that extends well past the duration of the visit. <br />Docusign Envelope ID: F5E5F5C2-1D2F-4220-AB83-15724033E4F0
