How Asset Mapping Can Unite a Community

Asset Mapping is a way to look at the community as a “glass half full” by looking for the assets that are already there. This workshop offers practical ways to discover the assets individuals, churches, businesses, and organizations have that could lead their communities toward genuine shalom.

The poor are isolated by more than economics. Inadequacies in transportation, family support, aid agencies, and even the unique poverty culture erect a series of walls that keep the poor, poor. This workshop unpacks the major barriers to individual and community transformation, and looks at one model for tearing down the walls.
