I am looking for some comments on how you would apply the ABCD approach when there is little or no trust of city leaders and the neighborhood residents themselves have little agreement about what action to take
Hi Kimberly.Just one thought. I would think small. Even though there is not a general consensus among community members, there are smaller groups of people who do share common goals. These smaller groups can certainly act without everyone's permission. Small successes will most likely lead to other people believing that community-building can lead to positive things.
Thanks - you are right- there are always some folks who can agree on at least some of the issues/goals. thanks for this insight
