Join us this Friday November 30^th for a Community Development Conversation Circle in Saskatoon.

Topic: Building trust in community development.

How do we build trust in our community work? Often we are working with people and groups with differing needs and diverse backgrounds. What strategies/approaches have you used to make meaningful connections and build trust.
