Community Capacity- Building the Foundation for Success
Community capacity by definition is the interaction of human capital, organizational resources and social capital existing within a given community that can be leveraged to solve collective problems to improve or maintain the well-being of a given community. It’s not just about getting people in the room, it’s about utilizing their natural skillsets in order to move the work of the coalition forward and, in turn, giving them a sense of purpose. Come join Kym Laube as we move from a group focus to a team approach, creating meaningful ways for members to contribute to and improve community outcomes.
