We provide training and coaching to leverage community leadership, capacity, and experience.
At the Resilient Communities Center, we partner with communities to find local solutions to local problems. Our team takes a relational approach to resilience building, recognizing that poverty takes many shapes and forms, including economic impoverishment and isolation.
OUR VALUES
Empower communities. Transform futures.
Resilient Affinity
We believe in the strength of doing things together. We create environments that foster trust and collective purpose to draw inspiration from local wisdom and talent. It is in the crucible of community life that our shared potential is realized. We work with you to activate realistic plans for your members.
Resilient Vocation
None of us has arrived, and we all have more to discover and experience in becoming all God intends. We mutually learn and experience what following Jesus looks like in all dimensions of life.
Resilient Formation
We embrace continuous learning and improvement. We cultivate inner health and spiritual vitality as an ongoing process. Spiritual formation is a prerequisite to lasting transformation in a community.
Resilient Identity
We hold a perspective of abundance. We acknowledge the value of every person as participants in God's purposes. We value the inherent strengths and resources within individuals and communities.
OUR TEAM
All our mentors and facilitators have been trained in the latest on dynamic learning and transformational development practices.
We apply the power of shared knowledge and experience, where mutuality and commitment guide shared goals.
We exist within a global network of laborers known as Discipling for Development®️, a ministry of The Navigators®️. Since 1983, we have facilitated Life-to-Life® apprenticeship among communities in sub-Saharan Africa, Southeast Asia, Eastern Europe, Latin America and US cities.
It’s in Christ that we find out who we are and what we are living for. Long before we first heard of Christ and got our hopes up, he had his eye on us, had designs on us for glorious living, part of the overall purpose he is working out in everything and everyone.”
Ephesians 1:11-12

Approach
At every level of engagement, from learning to launching, our priority is repairing and enriching relationships.
We never want to assume we are starting with the same idea when we say certain words, so let's define some relationships.
OUR APPROACH
Caring for the formation of individuals, teams, and communities is the path to relational health and wholeness.
You are welcome to explore our offerings only as an individual, but we hope your relationship with us leads to greater connection and resilience within your teams and community.
