Today I have the great pleasure of bringing you the amazing work of Neighbourhood Houses.
When I think of Neighbourhood Houses, certain words spring to my mind: The first one is, welcome. Other words that come to mind are: inclusion, gathering, opportunity, capacity, possibility, involvement, assets, equity. The work done in Neighbourhood Houses is definitely fostering and spreading love. These folks truly act in service of others.
My guests are CEO, Antonia Beck and Board Member, Sue Montabello. We talk about how they got connected to Neighbourhood Houses; what kinds of services NH’s offer; how NH’s differ from recreation centres; the focus on assets, capacity-building, and leadership; the NH’s role in nurturing a civil society, stories of success and what we might see if we all focused more on love. It’s a beautiful conversation! I’m excited to share it with you.
