Whether we choose to live in a traditional community or an institutional community, the responsibility to make it a great community lies with us.
Community is about sharing our gifts with each other—giving and receiving, reciprocity, and value. Each individual brings something to the community and the community as a whole contributes to the well-being of the individual. Behind the concept of community is a solid foundation of responsibility—people make choices that affect the community and, in return, a community’s choices, made through policies, social structures, and institutions, need to support its members as well as its own long- term survival.
