Community Focus Areas

Community FocusAreas

6. Usually,

whether formally or informally, sometimes highly functionally, sometimes semi-disfunctionally, all of the organizations addressing the same general area get together to discuss common concerns to coordinate their efforts to figure out how to work together for greater benefit than they could achieve individually without coordination. Like-minded people from these organizations get together to coordinate the work of their different organizations so that the work of their organizations can be more effective collectively than it would be as scattered, uncoordinated organizations. (Many/most of the people in a particular organization really just want to focus on that organization’s mission rather than look around town and try to understand what everyone else is doing too, and then work to figure out how everyone can work together.) We can call these efforts to coordinate the organizations working in common areas Community Focus Areas.
