Woman at community engagement event
In this free webinar from Community Heart & Soul, you'll explore a new model for more effective small-town community engagement.

Inclusive community engagement helps small cities and towns identify and achieve meaningful community and economic development goals.
During this webinar, you’ll hear how community engagement deepens resident involvement while producing compelling action plans and exciting results, from increased funding to renewed community pride.

Our speakers will share success stories from towns that have utilized Community Heart & Soul. This resident-driven process engages the entire population of a town in identifying what they love most about their community, what future they want for it, and how to achieve it.


Learning Objectives:

  1. Learn the overarching elements of Community Heart & Soul, a model for small town resident engagement;
  2. Explore how to identify who lives in a community and the ways people are connected;
  3. Understand how involving residents can bolster community and economic development.

Presenters:

  • Mark Sherman, President, Community Heart & Soul
  • Michele Bannon, Mayor and former City Clerk, City of Carbondale, PA
  • Annie Short, Project Director for Grants, City of Mendota, IL

This webinar is complimentary thanks to the sponsorship of Community Heart & Soul who will have access to registration information.
