Tools for Community Building and Thinking

In these comments the Harwood Institute often gets mentioned because of the work they have accomplished in structuring tools for community building and community growth. The last Public Innovators' Lab they held had 60 participants. One participant from a United Way Metro group did a recap of his experience at the lab that the Harwood Institute had shared with their lists. If you are interested in community building, you will be interested in this person's observations from the Innovators Lab.

In Hartsville and the Hartsville area we have our work cut out for us as we try to find the "sweet spots" that can bring people together to build community. We have many people with strong interests and commitments and they work hard. The next step in the growth of our community is increased collaboration, cooperation and cohesion.
