Recently, a new initiative for Strathcona County was introduced by Family Community Services. This initiative, Community Talk, encourages meaningful community conversation among Strathcona County residents to help unify the community and develop solutions for various issues. All individuals in the community are encouraged to participate and can get involved in a number of ways.
What is Strathcona County Community Talk?
Community Talk is designed as an ongoing, beneficial discussion where all residents of Strathcona County are invited to share their values and aspirations for the future. The main goal of the initiative is to establish solutions for social challenges that many individuals in the community are currently facing. Through Community Talk, Family Community Services aims to encourage ongoing community conversations and hopes to hear from 12,000 Strathcona County residents by December 31st.
How can you get involved in Community Talk?
If you are a Strathcona County resident and you are interested in getting involved with the Community Talk initiative, there are a few steps you can take.
Take the Survey
First, you can fill out the Community Talk survey to share your views and opinions regarding social connection in the Strathcona County community.
Host a Conversation
Since Community Talk is about having conversations and gaining deeper understanding, you can participate by hosting a community conversation.
Promote the Initiative
One way to ensure Community Talk is able to achieve its goals is by involving as many people as possible. You can help by distributing and sharing promotional materials.
A few other ways you can be involved with the Community Talk initiative is by participating in the Unity Project, volunteering, and posting on social media using #SCcommunitytalk. For additional details about Strathcona County Community Talk, you can visit the initiative’s website.
At Sherwood Ford, we are proud to be a part of a community that promotes honest, productive conversation among individuals and groups. And we encourage all of Strathcona County to participate in the Community Talk initiative. We look forward to seeing how the endeavor changes and improves our community!
