- Increase social capital---Great book to read is Bowling Alone by Robert Putnam
- Make school the center for community activities
- The staff knows the community, networks with the community, and builds relationships
- Do asset building--"Protective Factors"--some great resources are Bonnie Bernard's book Resiliency, Stephen H. Glenn's book Raising Self-Reliant Children and the 40 Developmental Assets.
