“Each of us has a choice to choose chaos or building community,” Dr. Tatum explains. To build a community of acceptance, we must actively choose community over chaos and then find out who’s missing from our community, who needs to be invited to the conversation, and whose voice isn’t being heard. “Who’s missing?” she asked. “If we answer that question, we’ll have a roadmap. So, ask the question: Who’s missing? - Dr. Beverly Daniel Tatum author of “Why Are All the Black Kids Sitting Together in the Cafeteria?” Are you making decisions on behalf of your organization or business? Who have you asked for input from to inform your decisions? Whose voice is missing? Have you engaged staff? The clients you serve? What about hard-to-reach people? Engaging diverse voices in decision-making is critical; however, it is difficult to implement in practice. At Building Community, LLC we save you time by conducting outreach, facilitating focus groups, and providing a consultation or report on findings.

Council buildings for community decision-making, including Senate, assembly, synagogue, and Greek bouleuterion, hold usually no more than five hundred participants. The personal interaction between them is of the utmost concern. They often have galleries for observer seating. 📍Philadelphia City Hall, Pennsylvania pg. 189, The Art of Classic Planning #councilbuildings #philadelphia #classicplanning #traditionalarchitecture

2024, we aspire to travel and trek more intensively, widen our community outreach and contribute as well as strengthen public discourse. All our work is drawn from a sense of belonging and purpose, peace, empathy and love we receive from our deep community bonding. This year, together with grassroots interventions and community stakeholders, local civic and professional leadership, we would diversify our work, integrate digital platforms effectively, focus on economics of scale, setting up of more independent rural enterprises and would advocate on direct access to information, markets and resources, and most importantly direct representation by people across all platforms. We shared the premise of our work and the reason behind community-led interventions - how these help discover and uplift individual voices. By the way of sharing many experiences working in communities, we expressed how a human condition varies with demographics, how important it is to look at a human situation, factoring other basic and necessary life dimensions as well. And, how with a stable source of family income, impact of vulnerability is reduced. Therefore, a social cause is better defined through public discourse, involving broader citizenry.

What is one of the most important things we've learned over the years at ELDI about revitalizing a neighborhood? The first — and most crucial — part is listening to the community and letting them guide the way. In the late 90s, ELDI hosted hundreds of meetings with community members to start forming a plan for the neighborhood. The result of those meetings was East Liberty's first community plan, A Vision for East Liberty. That plan was later updated in 2010, and more than 25 years later, it still serves as a living, breathing document that guides neighborhood planning. ➡ Learn more about how we keep that plan up to date and present in the minds of community leaders in our impact report: https://lnkd.in/ga-xaX2N #communitydevelopment #cdc #pittsburgh
