Dear community-engaged scholarship colleagues,
Minnesota Campus Compact is compiling case studies for a
book focused on campus-community partnerships that have effectively employed
the principles of asset-based community development (ABCD). These projects will
have in some way increased social capital, while building on the skills,
strengths, and vision of local residents, associations, and institutions. For
more information on ABCD, visit http://bit.ly/OIZwI9
If you have questions or ideas for potential case
studies, contact John Hamerlinck at john@mncampuscompact.org
On a related note - John McKnight, ABCD pioneer, was a
keynote speaker at our first national conference in 1997. He engaged the audience in table discussions
around the question: how can higher educational institutions be assets to communities? Read what they had to say on page 7-8 of the
conference proceedings: http://bit.ly/SgiB9R
Thanks,
Rahma Osman
CCPH Program Assistant
