How to Build Community
turn off your TV leave your house know your neighbors greet people sit on your stoop plant flowers with someone take a friend to the library play together buy from local merchants share what you have help a lost dog take children to the park fix it even if you didn't break it have potlucks honor elders pick up litter read stories aloud together dance in the street talk to the mail carrier listen to the birds know that no one is silent...though many are not heard-work to change this put up a swing help carry something heavy barter for your goods start a tradition ask a question hire community youngsters for odd jobs organize a block party bake extra and share ask for help when you need it open your shades sing together share your skills turn up the music turn down the music listen before you react to anger mediate a conflict seek to understand learn from new and uncomfortable angles
