🔍 Ever wondered how we keep our programs healthy and in alignment with our vision at FCS - Focused Community Strategies? It's all about constant evaluation and staying true to our North Star - seeing neighbors flourish - and sometimes, staying true to that goal means letting programs go. We’re here to see people thrive, not programs. The Flourishing Neighborhood Index (FNI) is a key tool that allows us to make sure we’re on track. ▶️ Learn more here: https://lnkd.in/eb8Bde-C

From our work at the Inner North Community Foundation, we are aware that end of life is difficult for people, and not everyone knows exactly what to do about it. ‘Leave a Legacy, Not a Mess’ is a community resource to help people make it easier for their family and friends to manage their estate when they die. It consists of a list of things people could consider doing now to tidy up their estate and avoid the often difficult issues which arise for those left behind. In consultation with our community, we have developed this checklist. https://lnkd.in/gXJqeNHa Learn more https://bitly.cx/ef4Rl

Sharing a great new free resource developed by the Inner North Community Foundation, for proactively planning for your future legacy. I can vouch for the usefulness of this simple tool, and the careful thought that's gone into it, as I'm lucky enough to sit on the Foundation's Board. See link below. Or if you live, work or play in the Merri-bek City Council, Yarra City Council, or Darebin City Council areas, and would prefer a hard copy, please drop me or Ben Rodgers a note.
