SC and LA Community Development Project

2005

The goal of the SC and LA Community Development Project is to implement a community development model in four communities across the two states that will create and celebrate community connections for all citizens, including those citizens with disabilities. The project’s underlying premise is that all communities and all of their citizens have capacities and needs. Further, all citizens, including those with disabilities, must be leaders in building social capital for all of the community’s citizens. Thus, the project’s goal is to move beyond models that are designed only to increase the inclusiveness of citizens with disabilities, and instead, addresses the needs, assets, and inclusiveness of all of a community’s citizens.
