What We Do
ASSET BASED COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT
We work in neighborhoods to empower community members, help them rediscover their unique qualities, and celebrate together when they make their communities safer and healthier places again.
There are two parts to LifeLine CDC
We equip individuals, churches and groups in the basic principles and practices of ABCD.
We practice it by actively being involved in various neighborhoods and communities.
LifeLine believes that the most important way to begin is with the people in the community.
Asking Questions
Listening for Answers.
"What do you love about your neighborhood?"
"If you could wave a magic wand and change any one thing about your community, what would it be?"
Community development means nurturing a shared vision of the community.
PEOPLE GIFTS NEEDS
Pulling together thereby raising new capacities, empowering new leaders.
Imagine a neighborhood where people care for each other, where they appreciate their own gifts and those of each other ...
they help each other out, know each other's names, people could trust each other, children are safe, and youth can explore their dreams and passions.
Is that still possible? Or have those times gone by?
At LifeLine, such a neighborhood is possible!!
We believe that everyone has a need and that everyone has a gift.
We believe it is through this combination that community is built and celebrated.
