Main Areas Of Our Focus
Education
Education is imperative for the growth of everyone, and comes through experience, books, teachings, and observation. The imperative thing to remember about education is, everyone has something to teach and everyone has something to learn.
Community
Community is important to the health and well-being of both individuals and the collective whole. Community Connecting Us is an Asset Based Community movement providing folks a sense of belonging and connection to others through numerous opportunities.
Creativity
Creativity facilitates personal growth and development by encouraging individuals to think and solve problems in new and innovative ways. Collectively, creative opportunities lead to increased social connections.
Wellness
Focusing on wellness and mental health allows individuals and the community to grow in knowledge and strength. Having a focus on wellness and mental health can help individuals take an active role in improving and maintaining their own health, as well as the health of others.
Our Operating Model
We operate under a "pay-what-you-want" model. This means that we rely heavily on the donations of others to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to participate, regardless of their socioeconomic status. Whether you have or have not; all are welcome and all are equal here.
