Facilitating Community Change: Making Sense of Opportunities, Resources, and Potential

While many Extension professionals recognize the importance of claiming or accepting a role with community change, it can be difficult to navigate the dynamics and prepare for that role. This workshop will outline key opportunities for professional learning, including appropriate sequencing from novice to advanced experiences. We will take care to highlight publications and in-service opportunities that have emerged from two different program teams: Leadership, Volunteerism, and Civic Engagement (LVCE), as well as Community, Local, and Regional Food Systems (CLRFS).
