Neighborhoods and communities are the building blocks of our future. If you are looking to connect, send out a bat signal and try to find your people. We can find belonging – our people – who care about what we do, but we may have to look for them. There are others who care about our kids and our future and want to do something. If you send out that flare, you will find them.
