December is a season that not only brings a series of celebrations, but a time of reflection and giving to others. Jen Budd serves as the Operations leader of our site in Barrie, Ontario, and fosters a spirit of community giving all year long. The Barrie site stays active in the community by supporting several organizations, including the mission to fight ALS after a former colleague was diagnosed. #MakingLifeBetter #IRL

Orchard Place is the only provider in Iowa certified by The Sanctuary Institute. This certification symbolizes our organization’s commitment to providing a higher level of care, a trauma-sensitive environment for the children and families we serve, and a better work environment for our team members. One easy way to use Sanctuary values is by holding a "Community Meeting" where the following questions are asked: How are you feeling today? The purpose of this question is to help all of us recognize our feelings and to manage them. What are your goals for today? Asking this question keeps us focused on the future. Who can you ask for help? The purpose of this question is to build our relationships with each other and to know we are not in this alone. #OrchardPlaceStrong #CommunityMeeting #Support #ChildrensMentalHealth #ConnectedToFeelings

"Putting power in the hands of citizen assemblies is a popular idea in Europe. It hasn’t found nearly as much traction in the United States, but advocates hope it can be a salve for the country’s toxic division." Bend, Oregon is hosting one of the only Citizens' Assemblies in the country, utilizing small-D democracy to solve our most intractable problems. George Anders of The Chronicle of Philanthropy spoke with assembly members and hosts DemocracyNext, The Rockefeller Foundation, and Omidyar Network about this radical experiment in solving youth homelessness.

An intriguing innovation in citizen engagement in social choosing through pension fund investing is the Participant Dialogues being pioneered by pension funds in the Netherlands, designed and delivered by Emmeline C. https://lnkd.in/e_u_Rrvd Politics is a reactive, redistributive and corrective sociology for "righting the wrongs" and protecting public health, public safety and the public's wellbeing. Money is a proactive, redistributive and formative sociology for forming the businesses that form the technologies that form the choices that form the economy that forms society and our shared future. And fiduciary money, the money society aggregates into social trusts for provisioning the social goods of Workforce Pensions and Civil Society Endowments, is already accountable under the laws of fiduciary duty, to the common sense of reasonable people. Citizens Assemblies for giving people a voice in investment decision making by pensions is a powerful social innovation for our times.
