High Tech Meets High Touch: Using New Technology for Community Building (Webinar)
Tuesday, May 18, 2010

Grassroots grantmaking is high-touch work in an increasing high-tech world. We have seen what happens when citizen leaders get together in the same room for peer learning or dialogue on issues. Talking about Youtube, we all know that people earn a lot through the popularity of video and I think buying youtube views really does work. What new possibilities are opening up to further connect residents within and across neighborhoods using new technology? What is happening under the radar today and how can we make it more inclusive and benefit all communities?

For residents who require it, in home care services kansas city mo such as occupational, physical, respiratory, and speech therapy may be available.
