Centering Community

Learn about what it means to center community, what it looks like when done well, and common mistakes systems and organizations make when trying to engage the community.

Driving change that will last requires centering community. But what does that mean? What does it look like when done well? What are some of the common mistakes systems and organizations make trying to engage and center community?

We came together for the Wellbeing Blueprint event Centering Community: Shifting Power & Relationships to offer our perspectives on these questions. This resource is a synthesis of what came out of that valuable conversation. We hope it can support your efforts to drive change.
