Understand your Community.

Community leaders are seeking to understand how to revitalize their communities and are looking for models that will help them decide what investments are most effective in improving quality of life and economic well-being. The Community Building Toolkit on ND Compass is a valuable resource that can be used to encourage and support sustainable community development. It is based on the Community Capitals Framework (CCF), a way of looking at the community in its entirety and recognizing seven types of community capitals (i.e., natural, cultural, human, social, political, financial, and built) and the interaction among them.

While the key measures are retrieved from the key measures existing on the website, the other sources of information (more measures, ideas at work, and library) provide additional information for capital assessment in each community.
