Are We There Yet?


 
 
Funny enough, The Open Community primarily consists of private sector and public sector folk discussing the same problem from the other end.
 
Meanwhile, there are youth out there in NIAs and every community with similar, big-picture ambitions but no training, access or even sense of what can be done should they get those things.
 
Get informed.
 
Get engaged.
 
Make a difference.
 
It's what happens when worlds collide, when diversity meets and understanding is developed.
 
Everyone wants it.  Everyone is working towards it. 
 
We can get there faster, if we switch the focus from "moving forward together" towards "leaving no one behind."
 
I'm hopeful.
