How Neighborhoods and Local Government Can Work Together to Make Both Stronger
Ron is the owner and founder Pacific Community Solutions, Inc., a training, consulting and technical assistance company working with community-based initiatives, nonprofit organizations and local governments.
Ron’s work focuses on helping communities discover the power within them and mobilize their assets before looking for outside resources. . Some of the most important part of this work is organizing or re-organizing those assets to make a stronger community with powerful local leadership.
Join us as we hear from Ron about his his experience working with a mix of urban and rural neighborhoods, including African-American, Latino, Southeast Asian, Native American and Hawaiian communities. After opening remarks, we’ll explore ways that his approach to community building can be translated into your own work and then open the conversation up for your questions and insights.
