What we've learned over the past few years is the importance of community and those who live in our neighbourhood. This is the time to try something new and reflect on how our cities and towns have changed and how this affects the way we show up in the community. We need to rethink the role that the people and communities play in solving local problems.
In this workshop, you will be introduced to Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) as a people-centered approach to program planning. The ABCD approach looks for and starts with people's gifts and strengths (assets), when these assets are connected they can then address the problems and challenges in their communities. Learn more about ABCD at ABCD Canada | Home (deepeningcommunity.org)
Join STOPS to Violence and Heather Keam with the Tamarack Institute to work through the foundations and principles of ABCD and how to center community in your programs and activities. This workshop is for those who are new to ABCD or want a refresher as ABCD has changed a lot over the past 10 years.
We will be providing snacks and lunch. Please let us know about any dietary needs or other accommodations to support your participation that we should be aware of.
