199 Words1 Page

1. Examine community capacity around ASRH issues, including its level of ASRH Awareness.
2. A catalytic event: awareness may be catalyzed by a specific event (e.g., the death of an adolescent due to an unsafe abortion) or by an accumulation of ASRH-related observations, such as a rise in school dropouts due to pregnancy. External catalysts such as ASRH programs can often build awareness of ASRH issues, facilitate community dialogue and collective action, and build the capacity of local organisations and individuals to play catalytic and support roles, but can lead to controversy as some may perceive them as negative or foreign to community norms and values.

  • Big Michael Cummings Essay

    1345 Words  | 6 Pages

    Although outside experts and assistance can help bring resources to the community, actual change must come from lifting leaders within the community who have been raised and affected by the structural racism and violence. The communities typically will listen to, believe, and trust the leaders because they were once victims of the system and are showing great effort for change. These leaders are the experts of the communities and can reach out to people like Professor Jorja Leap for additional help in gaining access to the specific resources needed. Elder Cummings and his work is a prime example of how the actions of a single person can serve as a beacon of hope for the entire community. Through the various projects previously mentioned, Elder Cummings is making positive changes in the community.

In his book Our Divided Political Heart, E.J. Dionne discusses what community is and its significance to society. Through my writing, I would like to specifically talk about “community action”, “community standards” and “community policing”.
