This toolkit was developed as part of a collaboration between the 92NY Belfer Center for Innovation & Social Impact and Living Room Conversations. The Belfer Center is 92NY’s innovation engine, building and scaling initiatives that enable leaders to activate ripples of impact around the world. Living Room Conversations connects people within communities and across their differences to build trust and understanding.

Together, we designed this toolkit to help you tap into your civic power and build a sense of connection, pride, and possibility with your neighbors. It contains tools and templates that will guide you through reflection, connection and action.

Whether you are looking to connect more with your neighbors, build a deeper personal bond with your family, plan an event or project at school or work, or even just host a successful block party, this guide is a great place to spark connection and begin to make a positive impact — right where you live.
