I'm David McCain and I'm a MA Candidate in the Sustainable Communities Program at Northern Arizona University in Flagstaff, AZ. I have participated in a number of OSTz (several led by Raffi - thanks for posting this, Raf:) and I am considering organizing one regarding a community center that is looking to expand its operations in Flagstaff. I'm very interested in connecting with OST folks in the area and finding information on OSTz that have been held in a "community organizing" framework. This information would would help me compose a research paper on the project.</span><br style="color: rgb(69, 69, 69); font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size:
