<DIV><FONT size=3>Family Support Networking is a grass roots
community mobilization approach that increases community capacity and social
capital by engaging citizens to pool resources, network with one
another and co-create initiatives for the common good of the community. As
a Community Weaver, you will learn how to start-up Family Support
Networks in schools, churches, neighborhoods, associations and agencies within
your community and train volunteers as Family Advocates/Liaisons. You
will gain insight into transformative community building theories and
practices and learn practical applications of ABCD (Asset-Based Community
Development) and Family Support principles that underpin the FSN
methodology. All the tools, techniques,
technology and expertise you need are provided to
customize change initiative(s) to empower families toward self-sufficiency and
better meet the needs of your community. You'll be amazed at how
easy it is to engage, train and mobilize a grass roots social
support system that serves as a safety net for families, fosters social
capital and functions interdependently with formal systems to improve the health
and welfare of the whole community from the inside out. </FONT></DIV>
