The National Innovative Communities Conference could be held anywhere. Aren't all communities looking for ways to better serve their populations? Maybe. But holding it in the Inland Empire sends a message: The IE is larger than 26 of the states in the US, and yet is one of the places that receives the least amount of investment. Because of this, the work and accomplishments happening here have been the result of collaboration, sharing of ideals and determination, and relationships built to cross political divides and really focus on the well-being of our community. The message? If we can do it here, you can do it anywhere. #NationalInnovativeCommunitiesConference #CommunityBetterment

Happy to contribute, Donna Ziegler, MFA-P, MAPC IIC, ACC. Was great collaborating on the Vital Signs report, Victor Roman Morrow. Thank you for the opportunity. Great launch event yesterday as well. On that note - Flow Community Projects has a unique service offering called Report Review and Enhancement, in which we are your last-mile check-in before you release a public report to your stakeholders. The way we look at community development reports, like Vital Signs, is that they are common agents for change. The benefit of our service offering is that it gets a fresh set of eyes on your report (which is how most of your stakeholders will see it - freshly). We use a systematic process to give you feedback on making it more impactful through content restructuring/reorganizing (moving, adding, subtracting), storytelling and narrative thread finding, recommendations for visuals/graphics (we do not do design), and aligning the report with your goals and objectives. Lastly, and arguably most importantly, we can help you create an action plan around the time of the release so that all that hard work you just put in does not go to waste and you can keep the momentum flowing! https://lnkd.in/gSPYvPjH

Fundraising Researcher at the University of York with experience in project development.
The reason why I decided to study Science of the Family as my undergraduate degree, 10 years ago, was because I wanted to contribute to society. I learnt that in order to improve social cohesion, we need to understand families better, from there we can then build tailored solutions at a macro level. As shared by this article of The Young Foundation: “A ‘community up’ policy vision, that is empowered through national, local and regional governance, can ignite the potential for growth and innovation that exists in our neighbourhoods. It can improve people’s lives, support healthier places, and create the conditions for a productive, caring and just society.” #family #sustainability #policy #development
