Training to Strengthen Communities

Embrace provides training to institutional partners in how to strengthen communities from the inside out using our Empowered Communities Framework of engagement.

The Empowered Communities Model is a framework designed to build a multi-sector network of institutional partners.  These partners commit to developing the internal capacity of communities by investing in existing and emerging community leaders of all ages. The model utilizes Asset Based Community Development best practices and is informed by more than twenty years of practice.
