Ponder this… : 

Ponder this… 1. If young adults are visiting websites or posting to community pages on Facebook but your community does not have a Facebook page or social network, what does that say about your community? 2. If young adults can go to websites of communities in your area and see current events planned for the weekend but not in your community, what does that say about your community? 3. If young adults hear that the leaders are interested in making changes, but they rarely see opportunity for young adults to have input… what does that say about your community? ? 2011 Copyright Lynette Hawkins
