Review for Communities Of Shalom Inc, Fairmont, WV, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

I became involved with Communities of Shalom when I participated in a political forum the organization sponosored. Through this forum, I learned more about the organization and how an interfaith group could do so much with so little. I immediately wanted to become involved.

Communities of Shalom, Inc. focuses on problems from a different angle -- how can we use the assets already available in the community to make the situation better. It's not throwing money at a problem and walking away from it. It is taking action to assemble the positives to eliminate the negatives.

Of the faith based organizations with which I have been involved, Communities of Shalom is a unified, cooperative organization that I am very pleased to be a part.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

The establishment of Teen Court.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

Provide additional money to enable the group to do further community outreach and asset building activities

Role:  Board Member & I am the current chairperson.
