ABCD for Community Change

ABCD for Community Change

Thursday November 15 2018, 3:25 PM
@ Cleveland, Ohio

A two-day training on November 15-16 with ABCD Institute Fellow and Faculty, Indigo Bishop and Mark Chupp, at Case Western Reserve University, Cleveland, OH 

What:

A two-day training introducing the core principles and practices of Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD) for use in local communities and organizations. ABCD builds community from the inside out as residents and those who are seen as clients become producers rather than needy people seeking services. Learn the power of asset mapping, a fundamental tool that discovers the gifts of individuals, networks and associations, and local organizations that are then leveraged to create change. Presentations and exercises will occur in light of current issues about racial equity and social justice and will enable participants to think deeper about responses to these challenges.

When and Where:

November 15-16, 2018

Mandel Community Studies Center of Case Western Reserve University, Room 115

11402 Bellflower Road, Cleveland, OH 44106

8:30 am - 4:30 pm

Who Should Attend:

People who seek a working understanding of ABCD as a strength-based approach to change. Though not a requirement, experience shows that the effectiveness of the training is greater when more than one person from the same organization attend together.

Workshop Leaders:

This workshop will be led by experienced ABCD practitioners Mark Chupp, PhD, ABCD Institute Faculty Member, and Indigo Bishop, MSSA, ABCD Institute Fellow.

CEUs in Social Work:

Both PD Hours for students and CEUs in Social Work are available for this training.
