We are community stakeholders and passionate caregivers who are on the “front lines” of fighting poverty, hunger, and health disparities in Indiana. We are coming together to learn from each other, share best practices, and explore innovative approaches that make a difference in the lives of children, adults, and families.
Our communities and our world face such complex problems that we no longer can solve them by gathering a few experts in a room and letting them dictate change. We can only fix them if we use comprehensive community problem-solving efforts rather than single-focused approaches. We need to meet and communicate and partner with each other, and we need to include representatives from all parts of our communities.
— Dr. Tom Wolff, author of The Power of Collaborative Solutions

Here's your chance to learn from passionate and experienced specialists who are "on the front lines" of combating hunger in their communities. They are here to share their remarkable stories of the revolutionary ways children, adults, and families are better served.
We work at thousands of helping agencies — charities, churches, food banks, homeless shelters, schools, hospitals, foundations, and more. We are learning how to align our unique strengthens and collectively tackle tough community challenges with greater force and success. Results are remarkable!
Accelerating our success, are exciting new breakthroughs in networking technology, cross-sector collaboration, and community impact tools — designed to transform lives and communities.
Our mission is to connect and mobilize a large host of community impact specialists. They will equip community stakeholders, across the country, with new knowledge and capacity-building tools that can “move the needle” on poverty, hunger, health disparities, and other complex challenges. And, they will help communities learn how to collectively identify, connect, and coordinate their local resources in more powerful and productive ways.
