Collective Impact Forum

How can communities build trust and belonging across lines of difference?

At the 2026 Collective Impact Action Summit, you can join, “Belonging as the Bedrock: How Communities are Strengthened Utilizing the Welcoming Standard.”

In this interactive online workshop on April 14, Briana L. Broberg (Welcoming America), Rachel Joy (City of Champaign), and Thomas Yu (City of Champaign) will share how communities can strengthen connection and social cohesion during times of change.

Using the Welcoming Standard framework, you’ll explore practical ways to build trust between long-time residents and newcomers, strengthen welcoming infrastructure, and foster belonging for all.

We hope you join us April 14–16 to learn alongside collaborative leaders from around the world. https://collectiveimpactforum.swoogo.com/ciactionsummit26/9927407
