Community Resources

Our community is the group of people living close around us. It should be a major aim of people in communities to get to know one another, helping to work together to provide for common goals, and providing support in times of need. People working together can accomplish much in improving the health and happiness of friends, neighbors and others living near by. Working in the community can give opportunity for service and friendship. Look for opportunities to be active in your community.
