Good morning.<br>
We had a productive <b>Building Community Social Connections</b>
event on June 23. <br>
Below we are sharing the summary snap shot of the information
gathered at the event. The Social Capital Initiative group is
using these results to creatively and collectively move forward.
A majority of evaluations identified that professional networking
was a priority in the efforts to connect the people they serve
with resources.<br>
<div> <br>
The next step in our efforts to expand social connections
throughout the Metro region will take place on October 20, 2015
at MORC Clinton Twp.<br>
<i>(Flyer attached)</i><br>
<small><br>
</small>It is exciting that we will continue to network to: <br>
<ul>
<li>expand social connections, <br>
</li>
<li>find solutions to overcome the barriers that inhibit
community engagement,</li>
<li>disseminate information of opportunities for engagement
and belonging, and <br>
</li>
<li>champion opportunities for people to develop
inter-dependence, accomplishment, positive roles and
positive relationships.</li>
</ul>
We look forward to seeing you at the next Social Capital
Initiative Event!<br>

</small>Warmly,<small><br>
