Community Transformation Forums are essential to building community
consensus in determining key issues and opportunities for change,
supporting continuous improvement, and nurturing involvement in the
development of healthy, more livable communities. Forums bring citizens
from diverse backgrounds to the table with emphasis on the following
outcomes:
- Broaden the understanding of healthy communities
- Support the development of transformational leaders by changing
the way citizens think about their communities and opportunities
for working together
- Establish an ongoing personal commitment for creating healthier
communities
- Stimulate action of cross-sectional teams to initiate new, innovative
efforts that will impact the health and quality of life of a community
- Achieve measurable improvements and define community and health
status indicators
- Provide a self-perpetuating model as a community-building strategy
- Following the forum process, community citizens continue to work
together to energize their visions and activate their plans.
