Broad-Based Relational Model of Community Building
By building relationships first, engaging people with different perspectives and experiences, we can effect lasting change in our communities and meet the real needs of our selves and our neighbors.
When we start with issues, we often get the same people at the table. We want to involve new people, new ideas, new skills, and new perspectives.
