Why Community Event Planning?
In a Care Economy, we must have intentional spaces where we come together and grow our community. Community is an essential resource for our survival. The role of the event planner is to support new connections. These new or strengthening connections creates a social safety net, a web where excess resources can be distributed so that we can all get our needs and desires met.
