Update #4
Spending time writing documentation since I've mainly forgotten how this app works! Remember always to document, kids.
PhillyASAP is looking to launch this at the end of the month.
Electronic Intern will help the PhillyASAP program maintain their listing of after-school programs in Philadelphia. Instead of having interns spend all summer cold-calling these programs, Electronic Intern will send automated calls that will direct the location to either send in their details by fax, a submit form on the website or press "4" to be directed back to PhillyASAP.
Written in Python, using Twilio's voice API.

A few days ago I pretty much finished this up. It calls a CSV list of phone numbers and plays the script provided by PhillyASAP. If the user presses one it forwards to the PhillyASAP office. If the user presses four it'll repeat the instructions.
Tonight we setup PhillyASAP's Twilio account so that we're ready to make live calls. In the meantime they're going to try to get the Mayor to record a few different versions of their script to play instead of Twilio's robot voice.
Looking to go live with this in June and see how it does!
Messed around w/ the Twilio API a bit - stood up a Heroku dyno to send the call's message and got it to call me with that message.
