Stepping Forward: Community Strategic Planning Kit. Sackville, Canada: Mt. Allison Rural and Small Town Programme , 1994
Recommended By: The Rural and Small Town ProgrammeTo Acquire Contact: The Rural and Small Town ProgrammeNotes: "The Stepping Forward Series is a very practical series of books published by the Mt. Allison Rural and Small Town Programme in 1994. It is intended for use by community members and leaders. The six manuals are simply and accessibly written, full of practical and imaginative ideas that engage the real problems and aspirations of rural communities. They identify obstacles to community development and suggest strategies for working around them. Working with 8 communities, the Mount Allison (New Brunswick, Canada) Rural and Small Town Programme learned that tools designed for community leaders should be based on several approaches: self-help; sustainability; self-reliance; collaboration; and strategic planning. Stepping Forward is a process designed for volunteer community leaders who want to facilitate a grassroots community development process to address all aspects of the community - environmental, social, economic, and organizational. Stepping Forward is the process of preparing a strategic plan that integrates all aspects of the community. This process has been divided into a series of steps that occur in three phases: getting started; examining information; and strategic planning. Mt. Allison Rural and Small Town Programme.
