Community Guidelines

Out of the combined of our collective experiences and resources, we can shift the equilibrium on issues that require a different way of thinking, working, and living.

I believe that collaboration and awareness are the limiting factors to resolving community issues at scale.

I also believe that accurate information and a positive attitude are essential components to productive conversations.

Online communication does not replace in person connection.

In this forum: Respect each other, share in collaboration, bring in data and your experience. Take the time to frame conversation in an actionable positive manner.

I encourage participation from all people that believe localized community collaboration is possible.

Clearly frame whether your ideas are speculation, based on personal experience, based on survey data, or based on double blind studies.

Do your due diligence when sharing outside information please read what you share, and know what sources they cite.

Those not engaging in good faith conversations (trolls) will be issued warnings. Repeated warnings will prompt a ban. Inappropriate comments and blatant misinformation will be removed.

Community rules may be updated in the future.
