Other Description

Asset-based community development (ABCD) is a way to look at our communities. Community development has often been viewed as something that a community is subjected to from the outside and that requires outside resources such as economic development grants to implement. ABCD is founded on the concept that each community already has a tremendous number of assets, which, if only accessed and channeled, can provide the resources necessary for success. ABCD searches out the strengths of a community as means of sustainable development.
