Oceans’ Post

We're counting down the days to our 40th anniversary celebration by looking back through our history, year by year. Why has our work been so concentrated on affordable housing? Because stable housing affects nearly every aspect of a person's life, particularly their health and well-being, and because that where our tools--loans and training--have enormous impact. https://bit.ly/44idbQY

Communicators need to listen. In my experience, when an underrepresented community member shares a story, it's usually a good one. I can't tell you how often dominant-narrative bias has prevented people from seeing the value in invisible narratives, the stories of lived experiences. I recently spoke on DEI communications: authentic storytelling, leveraging channels and building capacity. You can only do that by building listening skills. It's a practice that takes daily work and is part of the necessity of telling stories WITH the community instead of FOR them. When Luis Alonzo Garcia shared this photo with me, I knew I had to listen. I also knew that this needed to be shared broadly. A quick post later: it's a win for our community, platforms and strategic goals. I'm happy to see it perform well and even happier to see better representation and the sheer pride of the first-generation community being amplified. So, the next time someone shares an underrepresented story, listen. You may not end up with a published piece right away, but if you keep an open mind, you will start to see ways to bridge the narrative gap. There's a greater story waiting to be told. #DEICommunications #FirstGenerationCollegeStudent

FivePoint introduced the first of what is now eight communities in Great Park Neighborhoods 10 years ago with the promise that “life will be different here.” It’s more than just a slogan. It’s a goal and daily challenge to create a place with distinctive style and personality. One that’s lively and imaginative, with a few surprises and delights along the way. Beyond the creation of new streets and structures, residents and visitors tell us they feel a strong sense of community, opportunity and connection at GPN... something different than what they once knew before. As FivePoint continues to invite the community to celebrate GPN’s 10th anniversary, it’s been fun to find collaborators who share that vision and have an interest in creating a uniquely DIFFERENT kind of experience -- both for Great Park Neighborhoods residents and the surrounding community. In the spirit of a modern-day speakeasy, the Irvine location of Left Coast Brewing Co. (located a stone's throw from GPN) has introduced a special “life will be different here” blonde ale this month into its collection of craft brews. If you know to ask for it and tell them Great Park Neighborhoods sent you, you’ll get a free collectible 10th anniversary pint glass. And food/drink discounts (shh… it’ll be our secret). But for those who don't know to ask for it, we're hearing the name is piquing curiosity, inspiring taste tests, and creating conversation.   So... please stop by to raise a glass and say CHEERS TO 10 YEARS… and celebrate the beauty that comes with being different.

Hello, my name is Futura and during this #anniversary I will ask you to think, all #together, about the future. Let's imagine it as a mosaic of #possibilities, a labyrinth of choices leading to #infinite paths. Every action we take today transforms over time into something #unique and unrepeatable that we cannot foresee, but that we can #desire. Let's explore the present #together, embrace uncertainty, and celebrate diversity, making the #journey through time even more fascinating and meaningful. #ToOurExtraordinaryFuture #Marchesini4Future #Marchesini50 #anniversary #50anniversary
