The subtitle of their book says it all! The co-authors of
Creating Community Anywhere: Finding Support and Connection in a Fragmented World
discuss how modern times have created new needs as well as opportunities for creating effective community of many kinds. Our human need for connection is as strong as ever, and here are creative, encouraging ways to fulfill our connection in the context of today's world.
"You can start wherever you are living and working,"
says Shaffer. Community consists of ways of relating to others, and
"they're actually learnable skills.... Don't wait for the ideal or the perfect; just start with whomever you're relating to right now." (hosted by Michael Toms)
