For her, a community is a place she can get involved. She found the more she stayed involved with others, the more she wanted to stay strong for others. She says, “We come from a place with food where we won’t do it for ourselves, but we will do it for someone else!”

She’s been involved in over 150 small groups in 2017-18.  She’s led or facilitated meetings online, in living rooms, coffee shops,  the local hospital, gym and even her church.  People do better when they are connected to each other.  A small group experience can keep us focused, provide inspiration, direction and give us a place to add value.
