Inform: Inform people about what groups exist. Individuals can benefit physically and emotionally by simply becoming aware of what resources are available to them. Routinely get the word out about community organizations, activities and events.
Participate: Get involved. Attend celebrations, rallies, and vigils. See plays, musicals and film festivals. Gather for picnics, conferences, and workshops. Play in sports activities or cheer on your favorite athletes. Support yourself and others by getting actively immersed in your community.
Volunteer: A few hours of your time each week spent volunteering produces a lifetime of new experiences, memories and friendships.
