ACTION PLAN
The Plan
The Community Dream Action Plan was developed to build the capacity of people to integrate a bigger dream throughout their work/core business practices.
At the foundation of the plan is a shared definition and vision of equity, and four overarching branches for service to our community:
- Community mobilization and engagement
- Communications and awareness building
- Policy and advocacy
- Local capacity building
