"Identifying Assets in Your Community" Teleconference

This teleconference will provide information on how child health community-based projects can identify assets in communities and individuals. The presentation will cover how to identify and work with associations and institutions in the community, how parents are partners in this process, and where to find resources for asset-based community development. In addition, two current community-based projects will discuss their experience in identifying assets, one at the community level and the other at the individual level. At the end of this Web-based teleconference, there will be a question/answer session.
