Collective
Leadership A different kind of leadership is springing up
in communities. It is more collective, relies on the strength of
relationships, and is bent toward inclusion and justice. This
collective leadership becomes possible when the members of a group,
motivated by a common purpose, begin to build relationships with
each other that are genuinely respectful enough to allow them to
co-construct their shared purpose and work. This is about expanding
from solo perspective of “I” to include the “We.”

Gracious
Space Developing collective leadership for community change
requires the capacity to build effective relationships and
partnerships that operate from a deep place of caring, connection,
and purpose. In order to cultivate these relationships, we need
safe, supportive space where trust can grow. Gracious Space
provides a container for deepening relationships and having
challenging conversations. The definition of Gracious Space is a
spirit and setting where we invite the stranger and learn in
public. View

Learning
Exchanges Learning exchanges are held at least three times
per year. They are 3-day gatherings of approximately 40-60 people
from communities throughout the U.S. A host community shares their
successful approach to collective leadership for change with others
and helps participants apply the learning to work back home. This
section provides descriptions, materials, and stories from past
exchanges. View
resources.
Racial
Equity Anyone involved in community work that seeks to make
communities healthier, more just and inclusive quickly encounters
the effects racism. Many of our institutions do not serve people of
color well or have been unable to undo the lingering effects of
past practices. This inequity extends to new immigrants and
refugees. Carrying out social change in communities requires that
we address racial equity. View

Youth
Engagment Youth are commonly viewed by adults as future
leaders. More and more people are taking a different view,
believing that youth have important gifts and perspectives to offer
now to improve our communities. Adults who partner with youth to
work together on critical issues of communities can achieve greater
progress. View
