About Us
WE LOVE TO IMAGINE CREATIVE WAYS EMERGING LEADERS CAN TAKE THEIR PLACE IN SHAPING THE WELL-BEING OF CENTRAL VALLEY COMMUNITIES.
Our Philosophy:
Asset-Driven Community Development
At the core of our approach lies a foundational belief: every community, regardless of its struggles, is rich with potential and resources. Our Asset-Driven Community Development approach focuses on harnessing the strengths of a community, rather than just addressing its deficiencies. By fostering mutual respect and cooperation, we help communities identify their unique assets and capabilities. Through collaborative partnerships, we strive to avoid unintentional harm or dependency, ensuring that initiatives are sustainable, dignified, and owned by those we serve. This strategy equips local leaders with the tools for immediate success and paves the way for lasting change that resonates with God’s vision for every community.
Our Strategy
Identify assets and potentials within communities, recognizing the
unique strengths of each individual and organization.
We bring people and organizations together to see that we are better in collaboration. We believe that social connections must be built on mutual benefit that hold up our communities in deep, meaningful ways.
We believe that real transformation is catalyzed by equipping our local communities with tools and resources to experience long-term sustainability for collective impact.
Through tailored trainings, tools, coaching and capacity building programs the CCT fosters deep impact in communities to help individuals and organizations take action.
Solving community problems isn't easy and so it's important to note and celebrate successes and milestones along the way!
What We Do
At CCT, we operate at the intersection of faith, purpose, and action. Rooted in the belief that cities should reflect God’s peace, prosperity, and wholeness. We dedicate ourselves to fostering community resurgence. We champion the idea that real change sprouts from within, not from the outskirts. Hence, we partner with local leaders in the sectors of Education, Business, Church, and Non-Profit to ensure community-driven results. By bridging gaps, forging connections, and offering platforms for innovation and growth, we set the stage for communities to thrive and reflect God’s magnificent design for every city.
What We Believe
WE BELIEVE cities should echo God’s Kingdom of peace, prosperity, and wholeness.
WE BELIEVE God collaborates with us for community renewal and development.
WE BELIEVE genuine transformation springs from within, not outside.
WE BELIEVE in strengthening and linking assets from within the community for growth.
