I'd like to make a suggestion as a result of reading
the thread on museum education and how things work in
a museum.  You're probably also familiar with the
concept of Take Your Daughter (Child) to Work Day.

There are a lot of children's shelters filled with
young people who might get to take advantage of the
Take Your Daughter to Work Day because they are banned
from contact with the abusive or nonpresent parent.
There are many single people who don't have children
who might benefit from showing young people the value
of museums work.

You might consider contacting a shelter in your area
and working something out with the administrators to
allow their residents to have some of these
experiences with you.  For many years, I was
affiliated with one in my area, and I pared up several
of the residents with other employees who didn't have
children so that they could both enjoy the experience.
 It was extremely positive, and I recommend it to you
if you can work it out.
