Our birthday posts typically start with celebratory exclamations, maybe with a couple of "Woots!" and a witty self-deprecating joke. It feels wrong to do that this year. How can we celebrate in the face of seemingly insurmountable injustices on so many levels within our own communities and across the world? Because we need to talk about the good work that is happening, even if it is at a smaller scale than the change we want to see. We must change the narrative of what is happening and what is possible. We need to instill hope, in the hope of inspiring action. So we share our 4th birthday post with deep gratitude for the community and public sector changemakers, clients, and collaborators who continue to inspire us with their determination, compassion, and creativity. https://lnkd.in/e49w2c7K #PublicSector #SocialSector #SocialGood #SocialChange #DesignJustice #ServiceDesign #SystemsThinking #HumanCentredDesign

To all my lawyer and soon-to-be lawyer friends: Can starting and running a (nonprofit) law firm be a "source of pride...and joy?" Yes, it can be. Watch this short video and see what Sarah Beth Withers has done in (lil) Washington, NC. What about you? Interested in being "a beacon of hope, an agent of change, and champion of justice?" It is possible. I'm not saying it'll be easy, but it can be done. Check out the Incubator for Legal Practice and Innovation: ILPI for more details - after watching the video!
