Some press on our workshop. These community "check-ins" are great opportunities for more personal interaction and feedback that cannot occur during formal meetings. When folks feel like they are being heard, it goes a long way in community building. Side note- when someone comes in to "fight city hall" and leaves in a better place, that's a win (for the community) in my book!
Successful evening in Ferrysburg discussing the future of the community.

So often we hear conversations about “density” and adding density. To me, the biggest challenge is applying these ideas to areas outside of urban cores. I sat next to a gentleman this weekend who made the point of “proximity” and how proximity is really the driver for blending this conversation between urban/suburb/rural. The “one-mile-radius” is a great example of this proximity and how ALL communities can think about proximity and how we crave it. That proximity will be different from the urban core vs Main Street USA, but it is important recognize that these proximities exist in all type of communities.
The “one-mile-radius” effect is a positive wave of impact that builds momentum neighborhood by neighborhood. As neighborhoods become hubs of community more partners enter that community and other neighborhoods begin to enter a period of revitalization, eventually creating a stronger, healthier community at a city’s core. Learn more about the one-mile-radius principle in my latest blog.

It’s been two weeks since we launched our Toronto’s Vital Signs report at Toronto Foundation and I’m still energized by that day. Having nearly 300 people in a room to celebrate a project you’ve led for nearly a year is overwhelming. If you live in the city, this is a must-read! The report provides a comprehensive picture of the city across 10 issue areas (housing, arts, environment etc.), all through the lens of social capital—how people relate to one another. The findings are stark: 37% of people in Toronto are lonely, making our city one of the loneliest in the country. We’re also less engaged with others, participation in groups is down 30% versus before the pandemic. These numbers and so many more point to significant declines in our connections with one another and broader civic participation. That’s why we made this one of the most actionable reports including dozens of recommendations on how to restore that connection between us and our city. We also launched a public campaign, The Power of Us, enlisting dozens of organizations across the city to commit to an act of civic optimism and partnered with Volunteer Toronto to create a microgrant program for anyone to be a catalyst in their community. Read the report, reflect on the findings, and let’s all find a way to reconnect again. https://lnkd.in/gvkZ7iKF

"Anchor institutions can embrace community wealth building, an alternative approach to economic development. While traditional economic development assumes that development will “trickle down” benefits to residents, community wealth building employs and builds on existing assets within the local community to build sustainable ecosystems that promote equity and provide direct benefit to local residents. The figure below outlines the drivers of community wealth building and highlights the differences between community wealth building and traditional approaches."

“I believe many people care and would like to help make change, yet we are still using limited tools from the toolbox when we don’t have to. We recognize that this work is difficult and that the City and organizations aren’t opposed to these principles, but rather they aren’t built to commit to and do this work,” Dr. Bill McKinney writes in a guest commentary for the Philadelphia Citizen. “While Kensington continues to face significant short- and long-term challenges, we also stand at a moment of opportunity to mobilize a robust, resource rich and engaged civic network to bring about sustained outcomes and solutions, if only those in the private and public sector would commit to aligning their strategies with the Kensington communities self-determined priorities and preliminary strategies.” In a new report, Co-Creating Kensington: Alignment, we give recommendations and examples for how government and private entities can adopt trauma-informed, participatory, and comprehensive models of change to bring about sustained outcomes and solutions in Kensington and ensure that residents are You can read Dr. Bill McKinney’s full guest commentary "A Guide for Co-Creating Kensington's Future" for the Philadelphia Citizen here (linked in bio): https://lnkd.in/egVmJ99n and the full report at https://lnkd.in/eyura-J6. #communitydriven #participatory #traumainformed #communitydevelopment
