Thoughts?
• Would you want to live in this area?
• Is the needs assessment a true picture?
• What problems do you think can be caused by looking at a community via its deficiencies?
• What are the problems for providers?
• What are the problems for residents?
• How would where you live stand up to this scrutiny?
![Page 12: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Problems with this approach?
The consultation on the joint strategic needs assessment (JSNA) in Barrow-in-Furness in Cumbria concluded that “improving self-worth is at the heart of issues related to healthy lifestyles. If people value themselves, then other behaviours like healthy eating and giving up smoking will follow. Whilst many communities recognise that their health is worse than the average, reinforcing these negative images could have a negative impact on people’s self-worth.”
• Apathy• “Its not for me”• Suspicion• Communities become passive recipients of services• Isolation• Creates Competition for funding• “Ugly Contest”
![Page 13: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
About Asset Based Community Development
• Asset Based Community Development (ABCD) Institute was founded in 1995 after 3 decades of community development research
• Formalised by Professor John McKnight and Professor Jodi Kretzman at Northwestern University, Chicago
“When people have been mapped by their deficiencies, it is often difficult to pinpoint what they care about enough to act upon” Kretzmann and McKnight, 1993
![Page 14: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Asset Based Community Development
ABCD is a different way of thinking about how to work for change – starting from a place of possibilities, strengths and capacities as opposed to problems and deficiencies.
ABCD operates on the assumption that people, regardless of their behaviour, their families and their communities have valid and valuable resources for their own empowerment.
It also assumes that people have internal motivations to act which can release these resources for the good of themselves and their wider community.
![Page 15: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Asset Based Community Development
The asset approach values the capacity, skills, knowledge, connections and potential in a community…the more familiar ‘deficit’ approach focuses on the problems, needs and deficiencies in a community. It designs services to fill the gaps and fix the problems.
As a result, a community can feel disempowered and dependent; people can become passive recipients of expensive services rather than active agents in their own and their families’ lives.”
Improvement and Development Agency, www.idea.gov.uk
![Page 16: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
About Asset Based Community Development?
• It should be noted that ABCD does not say that there isn’t a need for services or professional interventions but that these should first seek to identify what the individual and the community can do for themselves and together
![Page 17: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
About Asset Based Community Development
• This is not ‘Big Society’, or a call for more volunteering; it is a set of approaches that starts with the positive as a basis for developing innovative and sustainable solutions
• It’s not an approach that just looks on the bright side, but instead uses knowledge of ‘assets’ to make new connections and enhance social capital
• A strength-based approach focuses on what works and how to generate more of it, rather than focussing on the deficits and problems
![Page 18: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
About Asset Based Community Development
• Strength-based approaches focus on developing the capacities of individuals and communities and connecting them in new ways
• It supports and celebrates the contribution of those who are vulnerable and marginalised, whilst developing the capacity of the community to become more hospitable and inclusive
![Page 19: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)

We Can Game
Credit - Cormac Russell of Nurture Development and Inclusion Press
![Page 24: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
The We Can Game
• The 100 Capacities are based on the work of Jodi Kretzman and John McKnight of the ABCD Institute
• The game can be used to get people thinking differently about their capacities/assets
• Can begin the process of asset mapping individuals
• It can start to identify people to invite in to our Community Building efforts
![Page 25: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
What are Assets?
There are 5 key Assets in every community…1)Individuals2)Associations3)Institutions4)Physical Assets5)Connections
![Page 26: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
What are Assets?
1)Individuals• At the centre of ABCD are residents of the
community that have gifts and skills.
• Everyone has assets and gifts.
• Individual gifts and assets need to be recognized and identified.
![Page 27: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
What are Assets?
2) Associations• Small formal and informal groups of
people
• Clubs working with a common interest as volunteers are called associations in ABCD and are critical to community mobilization
• They are coming together around a common interest by their individual choice
![Page 28: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
What are Assets?
3) Institutions• Paid groups of people who generally are
professionals who are structurally organized are called institutions.
• They include government agencies and private business, as well as schools, etc.
• The assets of these institutions help the community capture valuable resources and establish a sense of civic responsibility.
![Page 29: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
What are Assets?
4) Physical Assets• Physical assets such as land, buildings,
space, and funds are other assets that can be used
• How a space is viewed can sometimes determine its worth as an Asset e.g. Waste ground
![Page 30: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
What are Assets?
5) Connections• Assets become stronger when they are
connected together
• Connections between people based on strengths build healthy relationships
![Page 31: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
The Role of Service Providers
“A growing body of evidence shows that when practitioners begin with a focus on what communities have (their assets) as opposed to what they don’t have (their needs) a community’s efficacy in addressing its own needs increases, as does its capacity to lever in external support.” Improvement and Development Agency, www.idea.gov.uk
![Page 32: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
A Recap from Earlier
• It should be noted that ABCD does not say that there isn’t a need for services or professional interventions but that these should first seek to identify what the individual and the community can do for themselves and together.
![Page 33: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
The Role of Service Providers
• Services should seek to support individuals and communities to display their assets
• They should be ready to offer the assets of the service as and when they are needed to co-produce a service user experience which utilises the skills, gifts and passions of all involved for mutual benefit
• In community development you cannot do anything with people’s needs, only their assets
• Deficits or needs are only useful to institutions
![Page 34: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
The Role of Service Providers
“We can’t do well serving communities… if we believe that we, the givers, are the only ones that are half-full, and that everybody we’re serving is half-empty… there are assets and gifts out there in communities, and our job as good servants and as good leaders is having the ability to recognise those gifts in others, and help them put those gifts into action”
First Lady Michelle Obama

Your Organisation• What does your organisation/service do well?• What could it allow the community to do for
themselves?• What could your service do with the help of the
community?• What are its assets to the community that they may
not have themselves?• Does it own any physical assets?• What skills/gifts and talents of staff could be utilised?

Discovering Strengths
The focus of this stage of the methodology is focused on answering these 4 questions
• What Assets/Capacities exist in the neighbourhood?
• What can community residents do by themselves?
• What can community residents do with help from service providers?
• What can only be done by service providers?
![Page 46: Trafford one day session slide show](https://reader038.vdocuments.mx/reader038/viewer/2022110201/55ce0601bb61ebf71f8b45a3/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Asset Mapping
Asset Mapping allows us to build up a picture of what is available to use and mobilise and so we can begin to
make connections. We can map:
• Institutions• Physical Assets
• Associations

Asset Mapping
• This exercise is especially effective with small groups of residents
• Residents will usually know of much more going on than any workers
• Asset Mapping is a good engagement tool
• An Asset Map can be useful in inspiring community action and involvement
• Informal groups who regularly meet are worth adding and connecting
• Make sure that the map is visible and accessible by the community
• Always review and add to the map

The Power of Two
• If one person spent one day having a conversation to two people about what they could create (1+2)
• If the next day, those two people each had a conversation with two different people (1+2+2+2)
• And so forth• Then in 10 days, 2047 people would be having a
conversation• In 15 days, 65,536 people would be in conversation• In 20 days, 2 million people would be in conversation
