When We Belong: Partnering With Community | Season 2 Episode 1

Welcome to the FIRST episode of When We Belong Season 2! We're excited to bring you along on this journey where we talk about how state agencies can bring forth belonging through intentional partnerships with community groups. Our hosts ask the important question: What are some of the common pitfalls that governments can fall into when beginning to do partnership, and why do they happen? Systemic change requires state employees to create partnerships with communities and understanding their point of view.
