The document discusses how libraries can better engage with their communities in the 21st century. It suggests that libraries shift from being centralized institutions that people conform to, to becoming platform institutions that help people design their own experiences. Specifically, it recommends that libraries focus on being part of the community rather than just providing services. Libraries should engage with communities through volunteer opportunities, research, education, collaboration and input on action plans. The key is providing value and benefits while also giving people a sense of control over their library experiences.

St Vrain Media Kickoff Meeting
This document summarizes the key points from a meeting about libraries and communities in the digital age. It discusses how people now want more choice and control over how they access news and want more interaction. It also examines how 20th century institutions were centralized but resources are now abundant and communications are ubiquitous. People value expertise but reject authority and want to design their own experiences. Community needs of being respectful and helping the community remain important.

The document discusses an asset-based community development (ABCD) approach. [1] It focuses on identifying the skills, talents, and assets within communities rather than viewing communities as having deficiencies. [2] The ABCD approach involves asset mapping to uncover the talents and associations within communities that can be mobilized to address issues. [3] This strengths-based perspective views community members as leaders and citizens who can drive positive change rather than problems to be dealt with.

EVENTS: The Social Life of Cities: What is the designer's role?
The document discusses the role of designers in city planning and placemaking. It notes that while planned communities have existed for over 200 years, there is still much to learn about what truly makes communities work. Intervention is sometimes needed when places decline, but too much can stifle organic growth. The ideal is putting people at the heart of placemaking by promoting social relationships, shared spaces and activities, and a sense of identity and belonging. Well-designed public spaces and buildings can encourage mixing and strengthen social bonds in a community.

OBrien disability history 2017
The document discusses the history of disability rights and services in Georgia from the 1970s to the present. It notes that in the 1970s, Georgia was a leader in supported employment and community-based services due to progressive legislation, alliances between advocates and legislators, and federal funding. However, over time incentives shifted to more congregate settings and institutionalization as Medicaid control changed. Georgia now lags behind national averages in integrated employment. The document argues that resistance to change and a persistent attachment to segregation have endured over decades, despite legal actions like the Olmstead decision. Various strategies and individuals that have been effective in advancing disability rights and inclusion are highlighted.
Liz Richardson - Civil Society Innovation Network 23 Jan 2012
The document discusses challenges and opportunities for greater community involvement in local governance. It notes that meaningful engagement requires public sectors to have deeper trust and understanding of communities, see them as partners rather than problems, and adopt new approaches like deliberative democracy. However, many communities and public sectors still view each other with skepticism and pessimism. The document advocates for managing this relationship by focusing on interests over positions, exploring mutual gains, and supporting community leadership and problem-solving.

People, stuff, and the web
This document discusses people, stuff, and the web. It outlines different dimensions for designing for the wild web including value, usership, relationships, interaction, and scope. Each dimension can be controlled, hackable, or user defined. It also discusses the idea that followership can be a form of leadership and encourages the reader to think about who they will be. It provides credits and references for various ideas discussed.
Partnership working: Time, Trust and Two-way communication.
The document discusses partnership working between flood authorities and communities. It emphasizes that engagement requires time to build trust and two-way communication. Effective partnership working involves listening to community experiences and knowledge, rather than assuming authority knowledge is most important. Engagement is best achieved through facilitation that brings all stakeholders together as equals to understand flooding holistically and develop long-term solutions.
Community engagement through community transformation
The document discusses how communities change over time through population shifts, urban decline, generational changes, and increasing diversity. It outlines potential areas of concern for organizations, such as lack of stakeholders, donors, volunteers, and disconnection from the community. The document provides guidance for nonprofit boards to engage communities through the transformation, including defining roles, articulating vision/mission, building relationships, ensuring representation, and setting an open tone. It emphasizes ongoing community engagement and viewing change as an opportunity.

Community Engagement
Community engagement provides both challenges and rewards for the London Borough of Sutton's libraries and cultural heritage services. Some of the key challenges are that the public may be distrustful of local government and formal engagement processes, and community engagement requires dedicated staff time and resources. Sutton's libraries service addresses these challenges through diverse community involvement initiatives like local committees, friends groups, and neighborhood projects. When done effectively, community engagement can benefit both individuals and services by improving services, gaining political and funding support, and generating new ideas.

Keynote presentation for Coming Together 2017: "Employing Ability" on May 6, 2017. Coming Together is an annual conference hosted by Service Coordination Ottawa, targeted mainly to young adults with intellectual disabilities and their families members.
This opening keynote by Keenan Wellar, Co-Leader and Director of Communications at LiveWorkPlay.ca, was intended to inspire a call to action to encourage opportunities for employers and other citizens and organizations in the community to see the benefits of including people with intellectual disabilities and autism in their workplaces and neighbourhoods. The presentation was also recorded with the intent of being made available through the Service Coordination website.
Community engagement
Community engagement seeks to better involve the community to achieve sustainable outcomes through participatory processes, relationships, decision-making, and implementation. It is a process that enables people to become actively involved in issues that affect their lives by defining the issues, making decisions, planning and delivering services, and creating change. Community engagement involves collaborative work with community groups to address issues affecting well-being, and often creates partnerships that mobilize resources to influence systems and policies. The term seeks to broaden the focus from individuals to the whole community while promoting inclusiveness.
Back to Barnraising: Why Hyperlocal Is The Future for Online Civic Engagement...
The document discusses how barn raising was a collective action model born of necessity in small, rural communities with limited resources. While communities today are more complex, collective action is still needed to address community needs. New technologies now allow for larger-scale distributed collective action projects online. However, these types of projects can make the impact of individual contributions less clear. Local, in-person social actions like building a community playground make the impact of participation more tangible. The document suggests the future is a model of "community barn raising" that connects people and resources both online and offline to address community needs.

Mission or money bound case study
Mrs. Givinings is the director of the Community Outreach Center at Jarrow University, which prioritizes outreach to the local impoverished urban community. A successful businessman wants to donate $50,000 to the center but requires that the money also be used to include the suburban community where his children attend school. This poses a dilemma for Mrs. Givinings as accepting the donation would compromise the center's mission of serving only the urban community. The document discusses this case study through the lenses of different ethical frameworks and the potential impacts of whichever decision Mrs. Givinings makes.

This document discusses the importance of reputation for local councils in England. It notes that local councils represent over 16 million people and spend over £500 million pounds, but surveys have found only 33% of people feel their local council provides value for money. The document suggests that effective communication is key to building a positive reputation, as residents who feel well-informed about council services are generally more satisfied. It advises councils to publish guides and magazines about services to improve reputation.Primacy of Place™: Community Wellbeing
This document discusses concepts related to community well-being and the Primacy of Place initiative from Ball State University. It defines key terms like community, economic development, and provides information on wellness approaches and placemaking principles. The Primacy of Place represents a strategic choice to improve life experiences for residents, businesses, and visitors through dedicating resources. It encourages viewing a location holistically considering physical characteristics, activities, people, food, sights and more to improve community well-being.

Turning Outward: Building Emotional Attachment
The document discusses how to rebuild emotional attachment to public schools in communities. It argues that focusing only on rational factors like measurable results and cost efficiency reinforces the view of schools as commercial enterprises. Instead, communities emotionally support organizations they feel welcome in, are proud of, and have influence over. The document outlines trends like declining young families and engaged taxpayers that erode this attachment, and proposes responding by thinking of community first, embracing reinventing schools, challenging narratives, and giving communities more responsibility and relevance.
Centre for social justice presentation
The document discusses asset-based community development and moving away from needs-based approaches. It argues for focusing on community assets like individuals' skills and gifts, local institutions, and physical spaces. An asset map identifies all these resources in a community. The document advocates empowering community members and leaders to solve problems themselves through relationships and taking responsibility rather than relying on outside agencies. It also discusses how to make services and organizations more accountable to the people and communities they serve.
Cormac Russell Ageing Well presentation
The document discusses asset-based community development and empowering seniors. It advocates shifting from a needs-based approach focused on deficiencies to an asset-based approach that recognizes the skills, knowledge, and contributions of community members, including seniors. An asset map created by residents of Ballinacurra Weston, Ireland is presented as an example to catalogue the gifts, talents, and resources of the community that can be leveraged for local development. The document also discusses the importance of inclusion, co-production between community members and agencies, developing local capacity, and empowering citizens rather than treating them as clients.
Cormac russell fair share trust
The document discusses strengths-based community development which focuses on identifying community assets rather than deficiencies. It promotes an approach called the "5 Ds Process" which involves discovering strengths, dreaming of possibilities, designing plans, defining resources, and delivering actions. The approach aims to empower communities by recognizing what they have rather than what they lack.

The document outlines three paradigms of service - charity, project management, and social change - and describes how each can be expressed in either "thin" or "thick" ways. "Thin" service imposes help on others and risks worsening problems, while "thick" service invests in relationships, addresses root causes, and transforms communities. It prompts reflection on whether one's own service falls into "thin" or "thick" categories and what next steps could be taken to advance more "thick" approaches to charity, projects, and social change work.

This document provides an overview of an event on asset-based community development. It discusses the ABCD approach, which focuses on identifying and mobilizing a community's existing skills, talents, and resources rather than its needs or deficiencies. The document outlines some of the assets discovered in one neighborhood, including gardeners, bakers, teachers, and more. It emphasizes that ABCD is about starting with what a community already has and connecting individuals, associations, and institutions to create local opportunities and citizen-led initiatives.
Asset Based Community Development
This document discusses asset-based community development (ABCD) which focuses on identifying and mobilizing the assets of individuals and communities rather than focusing only on needs. It provides an overview of key ABCD concepts like social capital, the importance of building relationships, and empowering community members. It also offers tools for transforming organizations and communities to adopt an asset-based lens including asset mapping, learning interviews, and developing partnerships with community stakeholders. The goal is to discover what resources already exist in a community and empower residents to create solutions.
Community volunteering – grassroots activism or parochialism? - Richard Usher
Community volunteering provides grassroots support for local communities and organizations. It often involves volunteering at a community center to improve the local area. Maintaining motivation of volunteers and accessing training can help volunteering efforts succeed. Case studies show that sourcing funding, utilizing assets, working with partners, and engaging new groups like youth can help community organizations thrive and demonstrate their value to the local community. Community volunteering is an important part of localism and provides a foundation for initiatives while depending on ongoing grant funding.
Chc abcd training 2011
This document outlines an agenda and materials for a workshop on uncovering hidden community assets and resources. The agenda includes an introduction to key concepts like community development, philanthropy, and civic engagement. It then covers an asset-based community development framework and provides exercises for participants to map community assets and brainstorm ideas to connect assets to address local issues. Workshop materials define different types of community assets and associations, and provide guidance for asset mapping activities. The overall goal is to help communities identify internal strengths and capacities to empower local problem solving and improvement efforts.
SDS in mental health: Finding things you can change
The document discusses improving support systems for people with mental health problems. It notes that current systems are not working well based on feedback. The Social Care (Self-directed Support) Act aims to empower people through more choice and control over their care arrangements. However, simply providing more choices may not be enough if the underlying mindsets do not change. The document urges various groups, including people who use services, frontline practitioners, managers, and commissioners, to find creative ways to support people in pursuing different options and taking control of their lives rather than just focusing on traditional support models. Small changes by many individuals are needed to drive real progress in the system.
Advocacy 101
This document provides an overview of advocacy and community organizing. It defines advocacy as speaking on behalf of yourself and others to support rights and solve problems. Effective advocates build a support network of people who share their purpose of reflecting their community's needs and dreams. The community is bigger than any single advocacy purpose, so advocates must let the community guide their work and be willing to change their advocacy to fit the community's journey. Overall, advocates act as stewards of their community's assets, preserving and expanding them for the benefit of the community.

In today’s environment the public and government most often are at odds with each other. However, the current economic realities combined with the complex problems we face means separation between citizens, business and local government is a major liability for all players. Partnering between the public, business and local government is not an “interesting concept” or “nice vision,” but rather an essential reality we must achieve. In this session you will learn:
* Why this separation between citizens and local government exits
* How the public and government contribute to this separation
* A different model for partnering
* What true civic engagement really means
* Why community building is more important now than ever

Los Desafíos Fiscales de Colorado: Su Impacto en St. Vrain
El documento describe los desafíos fiscales que enfrenta el estado de Colorado y su impacto en el distrito escolar de St. Vrain Valley. Los recortes presupuestarios estatales han provocado una reducción de $24 millones en fondos para el distrito en comparación con lo esperado por los votantes. El personal del distrito ha implementado varias medidas de ahorro para estirar cada dólar, pero se enfrenta a la continua presión de mantener la excelencia educativa con menos recursos.
Colorado Budget Impact on St Vrain and Prop 103
Presentation prepared by St. Vrain board members to help community understand short and long term choices.
Douglas County Libraries
This document discusses how structural changes have led to new attitudes and behaviors among the public. Costs are decreasing to near zero and people now have unprecedented access to information, customization, participation and collaboration. This has shifted people's expectations away from centralized 20th century institutions toward more individual choice and control. Institutions face tensions between preserving their existing models and adapting to these new realities. They must help communities identify meaningful public work and support people's ability to actively contribute, in order to rebuild emotional attachment and shared purpose.
Colorado Budget Impact on St Vrain
Colorado is facing unprecedented budget challenges. How it's affecting the St. Vrain School District.
Grassroots St. Vrain
This document summarizes information presented at a meeting of the Grassroots St Vrain organization about Colorado's state budget challenges. It notes that Colorado's population and needs have grown significantly since 2001 while revenues have only slightly increased. This has resulted in cuts to public services like education, healthcare and public safety. The budget problem is described as structural rather than temporary as costs exceed revenues. Options discussed include reducing expenses through further cuts or generating new revenues through taxes, with voters having ultimate say over the state's fiscal future.
Colorado Association of School Boards
Colorado faces an unprecedented budget challenge as costs exceed available revenues. Policymakers must determine how to maintain vital public services while reducing or eliminating non-essential ones, and encourage voters to address these issues. Public attitudes show mixed messages - taxes are not a top concern but trust in government is low. While most agree services are underfunded, voters reject tax increases. Fiscal leadership requires articulating shared goals and priorities, and using resources to achieve them while considering long-term implications. It means more than one-time fixes - it requires generating new revenues, reducing future costs, and building understanding.
Emboldened Individuals/Platform Institutions
Presented to Colorado Association of Libraries. New expectations for institutions. New problems to solve.
Library Development Council Citizen Centric
The document discusses how society is shifting from an institution-centric model to a citizen-centric one due to changes in technology and infrastructure. Three key points:
1) New technologies have increased options and independence for individuals, challenging the traditional limits and control of large institutions.
2) Emerging public attitudes now value choice, self-determination, and participation in communities of interest over limited options and experts deciding for them.
3) Existing institutions must adapt to remain relevant by focusing on solving problems people actually face and supporting individual visions, rather than operating within strict boundaries of time, place and predefined services.

Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation results
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).
