An Introduction to the Strong Towns Approach for Your Whole Community
The Strong Towns message is taking hold in communities across North America. You’ve read the articles, listened to the podcasts, and connected with the movement. Now it’s time to bring that message to your neighbors, colleagues, and city leaders.
Get ready to change the way you see your town.
Strong Towns 101 is a live, in-person presentation that introduces the core ideas behind Strong Towns: how our places got into financial trouble, why the development pattern matters, and what bottom-up change really looks like.
Packed with the ideas that have ignited bottom-up change in hundreds of places, this talk will reshape how your community sees itself and set the stage for real, local action.
