Envisioning Change: Leadership and Community Planning

From February 13-27, the Atlantic Summer Institute on Healthy and Safe Communities is offering a 
five part online workshop series on case study approaches to community planning. This educational 
opportunity is designed for those seeking to engage in comprehensive and inclusive planning to 
address community issues, safety and well-being. Community leaders, researchers, educators and 
anyone interested in working intersectorally to create change are encouraged to take part. By working 
together to address complex issues with a focus on the social determinants of health, participants will 
learn how to bring together research, policy, and intersectoral collaboration for successful community 
planning and development.
 
This workshop series is adapted from ASI's Application Curriculum and the series uses the Circle of 
Health as a tool for team planning. If you are interested in gaining skills and knowledge in an 
interactive, continuing education setting, without the cost of travel, ASI's Winter Workshop series is an 
excellent opportunity to learn about intersectoral collaboration and the resources and tools available 
for comprehensive community planning.

Workshops run Tuesdays and Thursdays in February. Workshops are 1.5 hours in length (1:00-
2:30pm Atlantic Time), for a total of 7.5 hours of instruction.
