Momentum: Igniting Social Change in the Connected Age

By: Allison H. Fine

From the Publisher: A new and empowering way of looking at and organizing social change! How can we move from serving soup until our elbows ache to solving chronic social ills like hunger or homelessness? How can we break the disastrous cycle of low expectations that leads to chronic social failures?

The answers to these questions lie within Momentum, a fresh, zestful way of thinking about and organizing social change work. Today’s digital tools promote interactivity and connectedness. But as Momentum shows, these new social media tools are important not for their wizardly but because they connect us to another in inexpensive, accessible, and massively scalable ways.

The Community Leadership Handbook: Framing Ideas, Building Responsibilities, and Mobilizing Resources

By: James F. Krile

Based on the lessons learned from almost 20 years of leadership development in the Blandin Community Leadership Program, this book identifies three core competencies for community leadership-framing ideas, building and using social capital, and mobilizing resources. The book provides both a robust mental framework for participatory community development through capacity building and a set of practical, easy-to-use tools for implementing their integrated approach.
