Hello Everyone, as we enter into 2025, we are thrilled to introduce Growing our ABCD practice gatherings. These gatherings are designed to bring together individuals, groups, communities and organizations that are passionate about engaging communities using a strengths-based approach. It is important for us to have regular spaces for connection and collaboration with people who are interested in or actively practicing ABCD in their community/organization/group. These gatherings will give us the opportunity to:

1. Learn and grow together by sharing knowledge and experiences.

2. Connect with like minded people to build a supportive network committed to community development.

3.Collaborate on projects, initiatives and ideas that create meaningful change.

These gatherings will be held mostly online, however we will have in-person gatherings to strengthen our connections and explore different community tools and resources for deeper collaboration.

This form, is designed to help us understand your needs, interests and current involvement with ABCD, ensuring that these gatherings are valuable and impactful for everyone.

Completing this form prompts one of the facilitators to add you to our mailing list for this gathering, so you will receive the monthly emails with the reminder of the upcoming gathering date, location and Zoom link if applicable.

We may also reach out by email before our first gathering to make sure we know how best we can support what you are looking for from the session.
