Hi, I'm a junior at Tripoli High School and I'm taking a government class where we're studying local problems and how citizens can participate in their government. We're basically working toward promoting community service and volunteerism in our town to help improve our community; We're wondering how your organization could help us out! We've thought about creating a "volunteering club." Do you have any other suggestions on how to promote community service or how we can make our idea become successful?

Hello!





I run a young adult peer support group and am looking to find out whether there are existing national, regional, or local groups my group can be involved with. I am based in Lexington, MA, about 10 mi north of Boston. Can you point me in the direction of other young adult peer support groups or national groups? This is for mental health.





Thank you!

I was curious if it was too late to like withdraw from a class at KU. I don't really know what I need to do but I'm curious because my parents suggested that I withdraw from Chem. Also what exactly does it mean by withdraw? Will this penalize me at all? Thanks!

To Whom it May Concern,
 
My name is Ruth and I am an undergraduate student at McMaster University in Hamilton, Ontario. I am currently conducting a rapid literature review and dissemination on community engagement for a low-income community in Hamilton. I am considering using the Community Toolbox as a resource but was uncertain as to whether or not the Toolbox is based on scholarly research. If it is in fact evidence-based, I would be interested in having a citation list that I could take a look at for research purposes. Please do get back to me as soon as you can, as I am expected to report back to the community within the next two weeks.
 
Thank you,
Ruth

I'm going through the community tool box online: Chapter 27, Section 2. It is very well done and engaging. I'm not sure what the difference is between culture and identity in completing the "what is your culture?" exercise. I think identity is less strong than culture or less of an influence but are there resources that you have to help me understand the difference more clearly? Any assistance would be wonderful as I am trying to make sure I have this correct before attempting to present it to other staff or recommend that they complete the tool box themselves.
Thank you,

I am interested in starting an organization in my town to provide community members, especially families, outreach opportunities, as well as cultural education seminars/workshops for children roughly 4-10yrs old.

I covet any suggestions, feedback, direction that could come my way regarding this endeavor. I am headed to look through your toolkits now and over the weekend will be working on firming up the mission/vision of the organization and hopefully drawing a crystal clear line showing how cultural awareness/understanding goes hand in hand with community service. Something like if people know more about each other, they feel more connected and are more willing to give...

I live in a VERY affluent community, very white, very much lacking diversity and community service and I would like to see these two things grow and thrive here and need as much help as I can get building a case, finding funding, connecting community service and cultural education, etc....

So I am off to read everything I can now on your website and if it works for someone to call me I would be ever so grateful.

Thank you!!

There is a new website call "Nextdoor," one of our neighbors has started the site. I see this as a wonderful opportunity for community member to become actively involved, aware of what their local elected official are doing, crime in the area and so much more. However, with all of this potential, there is a certain City Council member, discouraging political, religion and sexual content. I can agree with restricting religious and sexual content, but politics? Ours is a very poor city, with very little commerce or growth. I believe some of this has to do with poor city management. Do you have any ideas about how I might gently persuade them to understand that we as a collective group would greatly benefit by being more informed about our cities politics? Our newspaper is extremely bias.
You are obviously far more educated than I am, if you have a persuasive research doc that would explain this, that might help too.

Thanks for being there, and Thanks for the website.

I need help writing a plan for elderly, disabled and home bound citizens for voting. I have authored 3 articles, handouts published by Democracy NC, talked with residents and administrators, social workers and activity directors and divided 108 facilities into 4 groups. I knew what I want to do long term with civic involvement. I organize residents. I am making 108 notebooks with all candidate info cross indexed by each type of race. These will be taken to all facilities and community centers. I need to propose reason for asking for funding for magnifying sheets - one for each notebook and start on power point. I freeze up when writing a mission statement and so on. Are you able to help me get started?
