Quantum Vision Quest

Youth-Driven Learning in Action

Quantum Vision Quest (QVQ) is helping lead a free after-school STEAM program where students learn about the impacts of stormwater runoff and how rain gardens can protect neighborhoods and waterways.

This year we are putting youth voice into practice by inviting four returning veteran students to help shape the program, guide activities, and support younger participants.

More details on program dates coming soon.

Transportation is one of the most significant barriers to student participation in after-school programs. While many families value enrichment opportunities for their children, the lack of reliable transportation after the school day often makes consistent participation difficult. Work schedules, distance from school, and limited transportation options can prevent students from accessing programs that support learning, creativity, and community engagement.

Quantum Vision Quest (QVQ) recently participated in a community discussion exploring the potential impact of an after-school transportation pilot serving the Cody Rouge neighborhood. A dedicated after-school bus route could help remove a major barrier and allow more students to participate in educational and enrichment activities.

Organizations driving this initiative this are St. Suzanne Cody Rouge Community Center, Quantum Vision Quest, and the Detroit Bus Company.

To better understand family needs and demonstrate parent support for this effort, QVQ has created a brief online survey. Your feedback will help inform community partners and decision-makers as they evaluate the need for an after-school transportation pilot in the neighborhood.
