United Way has long had deep partnerships with nonprofit agencies, community leaders and the corporate sector. These partnerships have helped drive decades of significant, positive impact. But they can’t speak directly for the residents living in the communities where we work. Only those residents can tell us what’s working for them and where the need is still unmet. This gap in insight has led us to broaden our strategy and invite members of the community directly into the conversation.
We brought together more than 400 residents to share their experience and inform our work. Read the report to find out what we’ve learned.
*****
For the first community convo social posts – We recently undertook the largest listening session in our history, enlisting 25 trusted community leaders to conduct Community Conversations with nearly 400 residents of towns with some of the highest poverty rates in Eastern Massachusetts. The results of these conversations led us to some profound rethinking about how we operate. Be among the first to see what will be at the heart of our work going forward.
Poll
We recently held Community Conversations with more than 400 residents from 18 communities across our region. Their goals for financial well-being will help guide our work going forward. How do YOU define financial well-being?
- Owning a home
- Not worrying about daily expenses
- Saving for the future
