A renewed commitment to community is emerging across America. It’s showing up in our cultural narratives, our institutions, and our lived practices in civic life. But the nascency of this movement — coupled with generations of lost communal wisdom, forgotten civic practices, and eroding civic infrastructure — has left many asking: where do we begin?
Connective Tissue is an evolving collection of projects that offers a starting point for answering that very question. Our framework provides policymakers with an actionable set of policy opportunities to regenerate connection within communities. Our newsletter surfaces ideas, organizations, and initiatives that inspire and deepen action in civic life. Our community (coming soon) supports and connects community-building practitioners, policymakers, and neighbors. We invite you to explore these projects further and join us as we build upon this work.
