Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) is a powerful approach to community development that focuses on discovering and mobilizing community assets. ABCD emphasizes:
EVERYONE HAS GIFTS
With rare exception people can contribute and want to contribute. Gifts must be discovered. This workshop will help you find it.
RELATIONSHIPS BUILD A COMMUNITY
See them, make them, and utilize them. An intentional effort to build and nourish relationships is the core of ABCD and of all community building.
CITIZENS AT THE CENTER CAN ENGAGE THE WIDER COMMUNITY
People in leadership in everyday life must be at the center of community initiatives rather than just helping agency leaders.
Who Should Attend? Representatives of public health districts, community based organizations and local and state government.
