Capacity Building through Individual Strengths Encouragement |
At the heart of Community Capacity Building is the belief that community change always comes from within, and that residents in communities are the best experts on how to achieve that change.
? Community residents work together to develop a vision that enhances their quality of life,
? Residents learn from each other and share their gifts and assets, mobilizing community participation,
? Inclusive community dialogue helps identify areas of concern, such as addiction, poverty housing, or HIV/AIDS in a community, and
? The Salvation Army facilitates the community change process by identifying individual, family and community resources, wisdom and knowledge.
