The Community Story is part of our ongoing effort to (1) survey issues, needs and patterns of King Country Indigenous peoples and to (2) integrate the local Native voice into United Indians programming. Basically, the Community Story Framework is a tool for helping communities to explore what is really happening and what is needed to make life better for everyone. The community story framework has proven to be a very powerful tool for getting community members involved in thinking about and taking action on their own for the improvement of the quality of life for all.
