- To give an overview of strength-based community development strategies and, in particular, Asset-Based Community Development (ABCD);

- To provide an overview over community development projects that employed such a strategy; and to

- To elaborate possible themes that could encapsulate the spirit of the project."

Living Proof: Telling Your Story to Make a Difference

Living Proof: Telling Your Story to Make a Difference is our new book on how to use personal stories as effective advocates and spokespersons for a cause or organization. It's based in the training work my colleague and I have conducted for 20+ years and draws on the great things we've seen happen when ordinary people become extraordinary advocates. I'm happy to share the work with the InCommons community or speak about the use of personal stories and advocacy.
