Скачать или смотреть Where do we 'Grow' from here? Cultivating the Relationship-Driven Library Concluding Remarks

Description: How can we continue to build a national community of public librarians committed to working collaboratively with their communities to transform cultures of health? We’ll wrap up the event by discussing this question with a national expert on community collaboration. We’ll also discuss where do we go from here: How can we continue to come together and support each other as we all seek to start and sustain impactful community relationships?

In this session, we feature Bess de Farber introducing her CoLAB approach to cultivating relationships among strangers to drive action and social change.
