[Michlib-l] Social Capital Initiative Oct 20 for Southeast MI

[Mary J]

Hi,

Libraries may be interested in joining this coalition to:
- keep our customers informed about the latest programs and information in
their communities
- show other organization how library resources can support local programs
- inform agencies in our communities about how the library can be helpful
in promoting local programs

Good morning.
We had a productive *Building Community Social Connections* event on June
23.
Below we are sharing the summary snap shot of the information gathered at
the event.  The Social Capital Initiative group is using these results to
creatively and collectively move forward.  A majority of evaluations
identified that professional networking was a priority in the efforts to
connect the people they serve with resources.

The next step in our efforts to expand social connections throughout the
Metro region will take place on October 20, 2015 at MORC Clinton Twp.
*(Flyer attached)*

It is exciting that we will continue to network to:

   - expand social connections,
   - find solutions to overcome the barriers that inhibit community
   engagement,
   - disseminate information of opportunities for engagement and belonging,
   and
   - champion opportunities for people to develop inter-dependence,
   accomplishment, positive roles and positive relationships.

We look forward to seeing you at the next Social Capital Initiative Event!

Warmly,
The Social Capital Initiative Group




"Social capital is about the value of social networks, bonding similar
people and bridging between diverse people, with norms of reciprocity.”
