*How does Gratitude fit into Asset-Based Community Development? *
<https://abcdinaction.org/mailer/link/943655/3196>
How does being grateful and then extending an invitation to others to also
be grateful prove to be a powerful community-building tool? Jeff Yost from
the Nebraska Community Foundation is looking forward to co-hosting as we
explore this question together.

*What If "Neighbor" Meant More Than Just the People Living Next Door?*
<https://abcdinaction.org/mailer/link/943656/3196>
Let's explore what it might look like if we made the word "neighbor" mean
something more than just the people who live immediately around you. What
new resident-led, participant-driven or grassroots collaborations could
happen in your area if we focused some attention on our streets? Joel
Zaslofsky is excited to co-host this session to explore street-level
“neighboring”.
