What better way to share your news of your dialogue-to-change effort than on YouTube! This week, a YouTube video created by Woodbine, Iowa, came to our attention. The community came together in dialogues to find ways to address area poverty through Horizons--an anti-poverty leadership program of the Northwest Area Foundation--and came out with a new youth mentoring program.
After taking part in dialogues to find solutions and sharing ideas in an action forum, residents realized that they needed to do more for their young people to succeed and thrive in and out of school. They identified the TeamMates™ as a program that could empower the youth. Watch how the program came to be and what it's accomplished in the community so far.
