Surround people with leadership, personal, professional, and community change success resources. 4. Leverage our communities collective power, capabilities, ideas, and resources to create fundamental and lasting change. There are six ever-present components in the community change model.

These six components flow through all three phases of the model (the whole person college program, the young leaders program, and the whole community program.) each of the six components is executed differently depending on life stage, need, and a varying emphasis on individual support or community change work.”
