Western Regional ABCD into Action Learning Gathering, 12/7-8, 2009

To Community organizers, community builders, and resident services staff from nonprofit organizations and government:

We invite you to attend the Western Regional ABCD into Action Training, December 7-8, 2009 in Oakland, CA. This event will focus on asset based community development principles and applying them to mobilizing people, organizations and communities.

ABCD in Action is a learning experience that familiarizes participants with the basic concepts of Asset Based Community Development, teaches tools to put them into practice and provides participants opportunities to develop their skills in using the tools to improve the effectiveness of programs and organizations. It is a 2-day training and uses a curriculum developed for and approved for CEUs by NeighborWorks America.

Participants in the training will:
• Learn the fundamental principles and practices of taking ABCD community building and organizing into action
• Learn how to engage institutions (health agencies, schools, social services) with their communities and vise-a-versa
• Learn methods to tap into the unique power of individuals with gifts and their voluntary associations
• Practice how to build more community engagement and involvement
• And more!
