🚨 UPDATE!
Based on interest, we will be going forward with our community meetings! We'll be sharing details shortly regarding dates, times, topics, as well as which platform we will utilize to host the meetings!
We're very excited hear from you and learn about ways we can work together!
🗣️We Want Your Input!
At Central Arkansas Development Council (CADC), we're exploring the idea of launching Community Conversations, a monthly virtual discussion series where community members can connect with us, share concerns, discuss local challenges, and help identify opportunities to strengthen services and resources throughout our communities.
These conversations could cover topics such as:
• Utility Assistance & Household Expenses
• Employment & Workforce Needs
• Transportation Challenges
• Housing Concerns
• Family & Community Resources
• Financial Literacy
• Food Access
• And other topics that matter to you
Before we get started, we'd like to hear from you.
📊 If this is something you'd be interested in, let us know in the comments by answering these questions:
✅ Would you participate in a virtual community discussion?
✅ What topics would you like to discuss?
✅ What day of the week works best for you?
✅ What time would be most convenient?
Community Conversations would be designed to give community members a voice in identifying needs, sharing ideas, and helping us better understand the challenges facing individuals and families throughout our service area. The information shared would help us strengthen existing programs, identify emerging concerns, and guide future services and initiatives.
As a new idea, we're looking for your feedback to determine whether there is community interest and how we can make these discussions meaningful, useful, and accessible.
Because the best solutions start with listening.
