“When the people of a community come together to visualize and work together to achieve a common future, they recognize that everyone–regardless of education, job, race, age, or background–has something important to contribute to personal and community empowerment. Indeed, the greater the diversity of the participants, the richer the vision and the more effective its accomplishment."
Lorraine Garkovich, University of Kentucky
